“Inek var” or “inecek var”? When I was first learning Turkish I was trying to practice what I was learning in the classroom. This can be dangerous.
In the late 1970s in İstanbul I was in a crowded three-seater 1950s Chevrolet -- yes, it had the capacity to seat nine passengers! (Transportation has come a long way: the dolmuş -- shared taxi -- today seats many more much more comfortably and has air conditioning) I was sitting in the very back with my head bent forward, because in the very back seat if you were average height or taller you could not sit up straight. I knew we were approaching my destination, Şişli Square. I always dread having to shout to the driver that I want out, but this time if I wanted to get out I had to. I worked up the courage and shouted, “Inek var!” Boy, did I cause a commotion. Everybody was looking everywhere for the cow. I had said “there is a cow!” I should have said, “İnecek var!” (I would like to get out) Even back then -- nearly three decades ago -- you would not see a cow in Şişli.

What does a wife say 25 yrs after marriage when she´s standing naked before a mirror and watching at herself ?
"Ha, he has deserved THAT!!"
A stranger sits in the airplane beside a small girl.
The stranger turns to her and says: ' Do we talk a little together? The flights passes faster if one talks. '
The small girl had just opened her book, now, however, it closed slowly and asks: ' What would you like to talk about ? '
' Oh, I do not know ', answers the stranger. ' How would it be about nuclear power? '
'OK,', she answers. ' This would be an interesting subject. However, you permit to me first a question: A horse, a cow and a roe deer eat all same stuff, namely grass. But the roe deer eliminates small globules, the cow a level round flat dough-cake, and the horse produces lump dry grass. Why do you think that this is so? '
The stranger thinks about it and says: ' I have no clue. '
The small girl answers to it: ' Do you feel really competent to talk about nuclear power if you not even know about shit? '

I was looking for some samples using an Audio Search engine (it comes up with all kinds of stuff).... I came across this page of Radio Parodies that might fit this corner of bandAMP : http://www.monstermixproductions.com/mp3_parodies/index.shtml
New test for astronauts |
Also the NASA is not untroubled by worldwide economical measures.
That´s why they slimmed their technical equipement for centrifugal astronaut-tests. And it works

It was coming up to Christmas and Sammy asked his mum if he could have a new guitar. So, she told him that the best idea would be to write to Santa Claus. But Sam, having just played a vital role in the school nativity play, said he would prefer to write to the baby Jesus. So his mum told him that would be fine.
Sam went to his room and wrote 'Dear Jesus, I have been a very good boy and would like to have a guitar for Christmas.' But he wasn't very happy when he read it over. So he decided to try again and this time he wrote 'Dear Jesus, I'm a good boy most o the time and would like a guitar for Christmas.' He read it back and wasn't happy with that one either. He tried a third version. 'Dear Jesus, I could be a good boy if I tried hard and especially if I had a new guitar.' He read that one too, but he still wasn't satisfied.
So, he decided to go out for a walk while he thought about a better approach. After a short time he passed a house with a small statue of the Virgin Mary in the front garden. He crept in, stuffed the statue under his coat, hurried home and hid it under the bed. Then he wrote this letter. 'Dear Jesus, If you want to see your mother again, you'd better send me a new guitar'
