& now we've reached Gay Doug's favorite moment of the Quizzo festivities -- the occasionally told, sometims regrettable, often reviled, but mostly, not very funny -- Robert's Internet Joke of the Week.  An extremely depressed young blonde was so desperate that she decided to end her life by throwing herself into the New York Harbor.
When she went down to the docks, a handsome young sailor noticed her tears, took pity on her, & said: "Look, you've got a lot to live for. I'm off to Europe in the morning, & if you like, I can stow you away on my ship.
I'll take good care of you & bring you food every day."
Moving closer, he slipped his arm around her shoulder & added, "I'll keep you happy, & you'll keep me happy.".
The blonde nodded 'yes'. After all, what did she have to lose?
That night, the sailor brought her aboard & hid her in a life-boat. From then on, every night he brought her 3 sandwiches & a piece of fruit, & they made passionate love until dawn.
2 weeks later, during a routine search, she was discovered by the captain.
"What are you doing here?" the Captain asked.
"I have an arrangement w/one of the sailors," she explained. "He's taking me to Europe, & in return I'm letting him screw me."
"He certainly is screwing you lady" said the Captain.
"This is the Staten Island ferry."
