New York Jokes
A man from Atlanta moved to New York. As he wandered the
streets he stopped at an antique shop and decided to go in.
On looking around he noticed a very strange looking bronze
cat which had a tag on it saying, "Bronze Cat $30.00, Story
$150.00". The man was very curious and asked the salesman
to explain. "Well" said the man, "its just like it says,
$30 for the cat and $150 for its story". "I'll just take
the cat," said the man. "Very well, but you will be back,"
said the salesman. The man left the shop with the cat in
his pocket. As he walked down the street he heard a
strange mewing sound. On turning around he noticed there
were a couple of cats following him. The further he walked
the more cats seemed to follow him. As he got to the
Brooklyn Bridge he turned to see thousands of cats behind
him. "Screw this!" he said to himself and threw the bronze
cat into the river. All the cats jumped into the river too
and were drowned. The man returned to the shop where he
bought the cat.
"I knew you would be back. $150.00 for the story,"
said the salesman. "Forget the story," said the man.
"Have you got a bronze Mets fan?"

New York Jokes
On a plane bound for New York the flight attendant
approached a blonde sitting in the first class section
and requested that she move to coach since she did not
have a first class ticket.
The blonde replied, "I'm blonde, I'm beautiful, I'm
going to New York, and I'm not moving."
Not wanting to argue with a customer the flight
attendant asked the co-pilot to speak with her. He went
to talk with the woman asking her to please move out of
the first class section.
Again, the blonde replied, "I'm blonde, I'm beautiful,
I'm going to New York, and I'm not moving."
The co-pilot returned to the cockpit and asked the
captain what he should do.
The captain said, "I'm married to a blonde, and I know
how to handle this." He went to the first class section
and whispered in the blonde's ear. She immediately jumped
up and ran to the coach section mumbling to herself, "Why
didn't anyone just say so."
Surprised, the flight attendant and the co-pilot asked
what he said to her that finally convinced her to move
from her seat.
The pilot replied, "I told her the first class section
wasn't going to New York."
Insane New York State Laws
A fine of $25 can be levied for flirting.
This old law specifically prohibits men from turning
around on any city street and looking "at a woman in
that way." A second conviction for a crime of this
magnitude calls for the violating male to be forced
to wear a "pair of horse-blinders" wherever and
whenever he goes outside for a stroll.
The New York City Transit Authority has ruled that
women can ride the city subways topless. New York
law dictates that if a man can be somewhere without
a shirt, a woman gets the same right. The decision
came after arrests of women testing the ordinance
on the subways. A transit police spokesman said they
would comply with the new rule, but "if they were
violating any other rules, like sitting on a subway
bench topless smoking a cigarette, then we would
take action." Smoking is not allowed in the subways.
The penalty for jumping off a building is death.
