Four of the firemen held a safety-net and urged him to escape from the burning building by jumping into the net. He refused and loudly proclaimed, "Im Fearless Jose the bullfighter who fears nothing, not even fire."

The firemen begged and pleaded but to no avail. Jose kept prancing around while repeating the same phrase over and over until the firemen got really sick and tired of hearing it.

Finally, when the flames began to scorch his butt, Jose announced he had changed his mind, was ready to jump and then leaped off the rooftop.

As his body hurtled toward the safety-net, the four firemen shouted, "Ole!" and quickly moved it aside.

A: Four - three to cut a hole in the roof and one to change the bulb.

"Very nice," the firefighter says, "but what does that have to do with the fire service?"

"Well," the man answers, "the house next door is on fire and I dont want you to trample my front yard."

"Mr Graham sir, White Hart Lane is on fire!"

"The cups man! Save the cups!" cries George.

"Uh, the fire hasnt spread to the canteen yet, sir."

A: So they have something to do in the afternoon.

He went to the angels guarding the gates and said, "Let me in. Im a fire chief."

The angels replied, "Youll have to wait in line like everyone else, sir."

While waiting at the back of the line he saw a sedan pull up with red lights and a man got out wearing a white helmet that said "CHIEF".

The angels popped to attention and let the chief enter heaven.

The waiting fire chief was pissed and went to talk to the angels.

He asked, "Why did you let that fire chief go through and not me?"

To which the angels replied, "You have it all wrong, sir. Thats God, he just thinks hes a Fire Chief."

A: It says they came from afir (a fire, a far).

Rex was a great dog and would always hold point and find any birds they shoot.

One year they didnt go hunting and the farmer rented Rex out to some Corona City Firemen who used him that season.

The next year the Riverside guys went to rent Rex from the farmer for hunting but the farmer had bad news for them. He told them Rex was no longer any good for hunting and didnt have a replacement for him and to tell the Corona firemen they were not welcome there any more and that if he saw them he would probably shoot them for what they did to Rex.

The R.F.D. guys asked the farmer what the Corona boys did that could be so bad.

Well the farmer said last year when they rented Rex it all started off fine until one of the Corona guys decided to rename him.

Well whats wrong with that they asked.

The farmer said they renamed him CHIEF and now all he does is sit on his ass and bark all the time.
