Paul Newman joke

What did the undertaker say when he found out he was getting Paul Newman?

"He doesn't need any dressing".

"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama

Paul Newman started

Paul Newman started a company selling food products (initially salad dressing and spaghetti sauce, moving on to all sorts of stuff) under the name "Newman's Own. " The profits all go to charity.

Newman?  At 83 I'd say he was quite the Oldman.

The thing about there being

The thing about there being a time too soon for a joke reminds me of another one:

 

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Because he had AIDS.

During an interview someone

During an interview someone asked, "How do you stay so thin?"

He replied, "I drink a beer for breakfast, a beer for lunch, and a beer for supper."

People who think there is something they refer to as god don't ask enough questions.

I think some who take

I think some who take offense to jokes about death need to lighten up. It wasn't a slur to Newman, it was merely a play on words.

I hope when I die people my friends and family will throw me a roast. Death is part of life and it isn't about how someone died, but how they lived.

Newman was a very charitable man and certainly a great actor. But we don't have to treat a natural event that will happen to us all as something  taboo. Humor is also a coping mechinism and isn't always ment as an insult.

If you're talking about me, I was only kidding.
