A blind man walks into a department store with his guide dog on a leash. As usual, the store manager behind the customer service counter looks up, notices the customer is blind, and not wanting to stare quickly looks away again. Out of the corner of his eye the manager sees the blind man start swinging the dog over his head by its leash. Shocked, the manager runs over and says "Sir, is there a problem? Is there anything I can help you with?"
The blind man calmly replies "No, thanks -- I'm just looking around."

A linguistics professor was lecturing his class.
"In English," he explained, "a double negative forms a positive. In some languages, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative. However, there is no language in which a double positive can form a negative."
A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."

A man's house is on fire. No help is in sight so he takes matters into his own hands.
He runs out of the house with his son and tells him to wait outside.
Then he runs back in and gets his daughter and brings her outside.
Then his wife. Then the dog. Then the cat.
Then he goes back in "3 more times" without bringing out anybody or anything.
So a bystander is curious and asks him, "Why do you keep going back into your burning house and not coming out with anything?"
The man replies, "I'm turning over my mother in law."
