Scone = bready doughy pastrylike thing that you eat with jam and cream, it's the classsic British teatime snack. It has to be baked, hence the reference tho the Baker. Instead of killing two birds with one sTone - an expression even you must have heard! - he used a sCone.
It's actually a rather nonsensical joke, since the only lethal or near-lethal application of a scone in combat that I can recall came as a result of a certain young lady dousing me with cold water during a garden party. . .
Damn. . . I could really go for a scone now, I miised breakfast again. 8)

I got the joke - it's slightly funnier than the jokes that my housemate comes out with. And it also reminds me of a previous art teacher in school - What is it with teachers and their senses of humour?
I never buy scones for myself. Breakfast for me which is usually only on Saturdays and Sundays is a bowl of Cornflakes, some orange juice and some other crap that I rustle together. The only time I've ever eaten scones was in a hotel when they came as part of the breakfast package.

I'm the only one here who can make corny jokes like that!
Example: A group of cub scouts were out camping in the woods. The mosquitos were terrible and the scouts were being eaten alive. So they decided to go into their tents until night fell and the mosquitos went away. Sure enough, night fell, the mosquitos left, and a herd of fire flies flew in. A scout peered out of his tent and saw the fire flies. He immediately told the scout leader, "Don't look now, but the mosquitos are back and they brought flashlights!"

Why's everybody always picking on me? Thanks to the Pompatus Wars, I've been clobbered, cremed, and had body parts amputated. Now I get bashed by a drum set. There must be a "Kick Me" sign hanging on my rear end.

Here's mine:
A boy goes up to his grandmother and asks her to make a noise like a frog. She refuses. A few minutes later, he goes up to his grandma and asks her to make a noise like a frog. She again refuses. A few minutes later, the boy goes up to his grandma, and his grandma asks "Why do you want me to make a noise like a frog?" And the boy says "Cuz my dad said that when you croak, we can go to Disneyland!!!!!"

Here's one of the jokes that my last year's history teacher emailed me.
Mahatma Gandhi walked barefoot everywhere, to the point that his feet became quite thick and hard. He also was quite a spiritual person. Even when he was not on a hunger strike, he did not eat much and became quite thin and frail. Furthermore, due to his diet, he ended up with very bad breath. He of course became known as a Super calloused fragile mystic plagued with halitosis!

Keeping in with Tora Ziyal's joke, here's a song I heard on a comedy show once. I wish I could remember the comedian that wrote the song, though.
Super frantic unproductive nothing legislation, Want to improve your congressman: provide some lubrication. SNL's cannot complain of over-regulation. You voters get what you deserve: great procrastination! Super frantic unproductive nothing legislation!

Anyone ever hear of the professor shooing chess contestants out of a lobby, after they were making a lot of noise bragging about their victories? His reason was that he couldn't stand "Chess Nuts boasting in an open foyer."
