Is the Pontiac one your referring to is this one?

Pontiacs: Poor Old Norwegian Thinks It's A Cadillac

Well as half Norwegian, I'm only half offended by your racists thoughts. To offend the other, Finnish half, you can mention that Chevy Impalas are considered by Finnish Americans as a Finlander's Cadillac. Oh great! Now I've offended myself, by tell you how to offend me, by telling these two jokes. :)

I'm going to take this one step farther. Growing up, my Norwegian born mother, who met and married my father (100% of Finnish decent) in Duluth, MN. Claimed that back like 100 years ago, Superior, WI across the bay from Duluth had signs on the beaches that read, "No Dogs, Finns (people of Finnish decent), or Indians (Native Americans/First Nation people) allowed on the beaches." Which is rather odd considering the number of Finns and Native Americans living in and around the "Twin Ports" at that time and now. Plus, she wasn't living there during that time. But, things being a little different 100 years ago, she might have been right. Either way, the idea of this sign always hit right with my warped sense of humor somehow.

A little over 10 years ago my youngest sister married a wonderful guy, who happens to be Native American. He and my sister then bought a lake cabin. Which got me thinking. So, I asked my brother in law, Rich, if he would be offended if I someday had a sign made for their cabin that said the above. Well, Rich has a good sense of humour and understands my warped one. So he gave me his blessing. Two years ago I found a sign maker at a sports show in Superior, WI out of all places, who made me such a sign. There was only one problem I could see with the sign. Sure Rich is an "Indian." And my sister Michelle is half Finn. But, they do not own a dog. Rich said that was okay. The neighboring cabin has dogs that like to come over and visit their place when they're there.

By the way, I did not ask my sister if she would be offended by the sign. With her I didn't care. But I didn't want to offend Rich, because I like him.

Scott- the reason they didn't want your ancestors (Finnish) and mine (Apache) on the beach was because they didn't want the Indians burning Easter bonfires as a Pagan custom meant to keep witches at bay, and they didn't want the finnish people scalping innocent sunbathers... :blink::lol:

Just Kidding! :P

By the way, the Automotive Acronyms I posted above, I forgot to mention that I got them out of a great book called "Car Crazy"' by Dean D. Dauphinois and Peter M. Gareffa. I don't know if the book is still available or not. It was published almost 20 years ago. In 1996 by Visible Ink Press.

It's a fun book with a lots great automotive trivia in it. And here is another humours one I'd like to share. It's titled Excu-u-u-u-u-se Me! "Actual excuses for auto accidents, taken from insurance-company records:"

"Coming home I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I don't have."

"The other car collided with mine without giving warnings of its intentions."

"I thought the window was down, but I found out it was up, when I put my head through it."

"I collided with a stationary truck coming the other way."

"A truck backed through my windshield into my wife's face."

"A pedestrian hit me and went under my car."

"The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve several times before I hit him."

"I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother-in-law, and headed over the embankment."

"In an attempt to kill a fly, I drove into a telephone pole."

"As I reached an intersection, a hedge sprang up, obscuring my vision, and I did not see the other car."

"I had been driving for 40 years when I fell asleep at the wheel and had an accident."

"I was on my way to the doctor with rear-end trouble when my universal joint gave way causing me to have an accident."

"As I approached the intersection, a sign suddenly appeared in a place no stop sign had ever appeared before."

"To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front, I struck the pedestrian."

"The indirect cause of the accident was a little guy in a small car with a big mouth."

"I was sure the old fellow would never make it to the other side of the road when I struck him."

"I was thrown from my car as it left the road. I was later found in a ditch by some stray cows."

"The telephone pole was approaching. I was attempting to swerve out of its way, when it struck the front end."

"I saw a slow-moving, sad-faced old gentleman as he bounced off the roof of my car."

If corn oil come from corn, what does baby oil come from?

One day two corn cobs, who are best friends, we're walking together down the street. They stepped off the curb and a speeding car came around the corner and ran one of them over.

The uninjured corn cob called 911 and helped his injured friend as best he was able. The injured corn cob was taken to emergency at the hosipital and rushed into surgery.

After a long and agonizing wait, the doctor finally appeared. He told the uninjured corn cob, "I have good news, and I have bad news. The good news is that your friend is going to pull through."

"The bad news is that he's going to be a vegetable for the rest of his life."

A guy walks into a doctor's office.

A banana stuck in one of his ears, a corn cob in the other ear, and a carrot stuck in one nostril.

The man says, "Doc, this is terrible. What's wrong with me?"

The doctor says, "Well, first of all, you need to eat more sensibly."

After a minor mathematical error on routine report, a worker's boss tried to belittle him in front of his peers.

Angrily she asked, "If you had 4 corn cobs and I asked for one, how many would you have left?"

Quickly he replied, "If it was you who asked, I'd still have 4 corn cobs."

Okay I'm sorry for that. I got these jokes off of jokes4us.com. They are bad. And there are more waiting on their site.

There's a good reason that joke isn't funny Corn isn't a vegetable, it's a grain. Like wheat, rye, oats, or barley. ;)

Oh come on Harry. Two things. One, I didn't write the joke. And two, most people do consider corn a vegetable. Plus I thought it was funny and "corny."

Oh, and by the way Harry. Those were the good ones. I did not include all of the corn jokes from that site. One because it was in bad taste and not family friendly.

On come on Harry.

Just messin' with ya. :D

But seriously... corn is not a vegetable.

And a tomato isn't either. It's a fruit.

And a peanut is not a nut. It's a legume, like beans.

Stick with me, kid, and you'll learn a thing or three... :P
