Here are the ten first-place winners in the International Pun Contest:

by jackfrost @ Tuesday, 13. May, 2008 - 07:27:34

1. A vulture boards an airplane, carrying two dead raccoons. The stewardess
looks at him and says, "I'm sorry, sir, only one carrion allowed per passenger."

2. Two fish swim into a concrete wall. The one turns to the other and says "Dam!"

3. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in the craft.
Unsurprisingly it sank, proving once again that you can't have your kayak and heat it too.

4. Two hydrogen atoms meet. One says "I've lost my electron." The other says
"Are you sure?" The first replies "Yes, I'm positive."

5. Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused Novocain during a root canal? His goal:
transcend dental medication.

6. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the
lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the
manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. "But why?",
they asked, as they moved off. "Because," he said," I can't stand chess-nuts
boasting in an open foyer."

7. A woman has twins and gives them up for adoption. One of them goes to a
family in Egypt and is named "Ahmal." The other goes to a family in Spain;
they name him "Juan. " Years later, Juan sends a picture of himself to his
birth mother. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she
wishes she also had a picture of Ahmal. Her husband responds, "They're twins!
If you've seen Juan, you've seen Ahmal."

8. A group of friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up
a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy flowers from
the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was unfair.
He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and
begged the friars to close. They ignored him. So, the rival florist hired Hugh
MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to "persuade" them
to close. Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back
if they didn't close up shop. Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that only
Hugh can prevent florist friars.

9. Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced
an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made
him rather frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him
(Oh, man, this is so bad, it's good) a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by
halitosis.

10. And finally, there was the person who sent ten different puns to friends,
with the hope that at least one of the puns would make them laugh.

No pun in ten did.

a pump is a machine that takes a liquid substance say water oil gas that sort of thing and sucks it in one end and drives it out the other..they are used to push (pump) water up hill

you can also use a pump to blow(pump) air into your bicycle tyres

you will know these by your own name..

so "particules pumped back out the opening? means that the bits that came in were pushed(pumped) back out..

i hope that helps!

Umpteen thanks to you! It really help me! I will save it on my file. I don't have words to say thank you!
You know the Brazilians have troubles in understand phrasal verbs. I was confused due to back out. But reading the examples I can figure out the meaning now.
thanks .... loads!!
