Thor

Do you know the age-old joke about Thor?

Depends. If you're talking about the Thorsday joke, my father tells it all to frequently. If you're not, do tell. @=)

Ok here goes.

Thor (the god of Thunder) is sitting alone on his cloud, envious of the mortals enjoying themselves below. "S0d this" he thinks, floats down and assumes a body. Strolling proudly around Soho he soon attracts a few admirers and is willingly led to a nearby flat by one of them.

After a time, well a few times actually, he decides to 'fess up and tell her who he really is, so he leaps to his feet, bangs a fist on his chest and roars "I'm Thor!".

"You're thore?" she lisps, "Well I'm tho thore I can hardly p$$h"
