OK, this is my sorry attempt at a limerick - I won't quit my day job just yet

There once was a gal who loved the sun
And sandy beaches and margaritas and fun
So she bought timeshares to trade
Maintenance fees she has paid
Wouldn't it be great fun if she won?

But now I'm in the contest, yippee!

At The coctail party at the Royal Islander resort in Cancun the table next to use was occupied by two couples. A personal concerige was chatting with them. he walked away to talk with another couple at a different table. The first two couples were exchangers and started commenting on how this party looked like A timeshare sales ploy. When the personal concerige returned he aksed them something and the one gentlemen told him Him " He already had 3 timeshares and he was not going to buy anymore so bite me" I couldn't help but bust out laughling.

Hey!!! I'm a newbie!!!! Expecting my deed any day now. Does my resort have to RCI for me to win?? I am really learning a lot from these boards and wanted to say THANKS!!!


I got bitten by the Timeshare bug this summer,
My husband thinks its a bummer!!!!

I bought a great week,
so we could be cheek to cheek

But now I'm possessed
to buy more like the rest......

I spend too much time, checking on-line

Do I sound like a fellow Tugger???

First we bought a timeshare
Vacations were on our mind
We use it every couple months
So that we can really unwind

Then I searched the internet
To help enhance our fun
It led me to TUG- a great site
The BBs is the best one

RCI is our exchange group
We joined to travel and trade
We banked a week as required
But an exchange we have not made

I play on line with our choices
Always checking with TUG's reviews
Searching different locations
Always looking for good news

I daily read the Bulletin Board
New things I learn each day
My TUG friends are so helpful
I'm interested in what they say

I think I am a junkie
Can't seem to stay away
I must get my timeshare fix
And read TUG every single day

A story for us "oldies but goodies":

A seniors couple was doing some yardwork, and while the wife was getting a lot done, the husband was just puttering around. After a while, the wife started giving him dirty looks, and finally made some comment about his showing his age. In response, he said: "There may be winter in my hair, but there's summer in my heart". To which she replied: "If you don't get some spring in your step, we'll be here till fall!"

I won't quit my day job either.

There once was a girl from New York
About timeshares she loved to talk.
From a slick salesman she bought.
A great trader she thought.
RCI she is forced to stalk.

OK pathetic, I know.

Somehow jokes just lose something in reading, but here goes. Feel free to insert any of your favorites instead.......

A Vikings fan was out hiking in the mountains one day. As he walked along, a group of three men caught up with him. They told him they were on a mission. They invited him to join them. As they walked along, he found out they were a Green Bay Packers fan, a Colts fan and a Bears fan. When they got to the top of the mountain, they stood and looked over the side at the huge drop down. Then suddenly the Colts fan shouted, "This is for the Colts"!! and jumped off the side. A few seconds later, the second guy shouted "This is for the Bears!!" and he leaped off the side. The Vikings fan scratched his head, then shouted "This is for the Vikings!!" and he pushed the Packers fan off the side.

I think the points week should go to Carolinian ... I really do ... but only if he promises to exchange it and use those rci points to rape, pillage and steal from the weeks inventory.

I tried, but I'm no good at rhymes, so I'm going to go for the sympathy vote. I should get the points week because it's tragic that I have given away so many great coupons for so many great destinations that I can't use because I don't have any weeks to use!

If winners never quit
and quitters never win;

then who was it that first said "quit while you're ahead"?

I could really use a vacation!

OK...One of my favorites...
One fine day, a bug was bopping down the sidewalk when suddenly, a giant hand reached out of a bush, plucked him up and took him inside the bush. There was much leaf rattling, and then the hand reached out and set the bug back down. The bug shook his little head, and declared, "I'm a bug, and I've been hugged!"
Later, a dove was prancing down the sidewalk when the hand reached out and snatched her up. She disappeared into the shrub amid much leaf action before she was restored to the sidewalk.
She shook out her feathers, looked around, and said, "I'm a dove, and I've been loved. With a dovey little smile, she went on her way.
After awhile, a duck went waddling past the bush, and again, the hand reached out and disappeared with the struggling little creature. Once more the shaking started, and the bush almost seemed to uproot itself. Finally, the bedraggled little creature stood up, shook himself, looked around, and said, "I'm a drake, and there's been a mistake!"

I know I can't enter twice, but I just got this via e-mail and had to pass it on...

An elderly man in Phoenix calls his son in New York and says, "I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; 45 years of misery is enough."

"Pop, what are you talking about?" the son screams.

"We can't stand the sight of each other any longer," the old man replies. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her," he says as he hangs up.

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. "Like heck they're getting divorced," she shouts, "I'll take care of this."

She calls Phoenix immediately, and screams at the old man, "You are NOT getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing. DO YOU HEAR ME?" Then she hangs up.

The old man puts down the phone, turns to his wife and says. "OK, they're coming for Thanksgiving and paying their own airfares."

This thread has been a riot! So I've gotta join in! For years my family has been doing Dee jokes about my name! Like:

Whaddaya call a timeshare trip when Dee gets lost doing the driving?
A Dee-tour.

If a bus ran over me, how would I feel?
Dee-pressed.

If I sit too close to the huge campfire sparks, will I be Dee-lighted?

You KNOW that if there is no kitchen in the timeshare, I might become Dee-ranged?

If I disciplined the neighbor kids for yelling in the hall are they Dee-moralized?

If I snore in the bed above you and you kick me out, will that help to Dee-bunk the Myth?

How did those Minnesota winters always make me feel? Dee-frosted!

If I joined the TUG threads about the government, might this site become Dee-politicized?

Yes, all of my future RCI exchange confirmations have been Dee-filed!

And, finally, if I ever became a timeshare saleperson, after a presentation how would you feel?
Dee-pressurized!

True kid story: Mitchell was 2 years old and his Mom Lisa was trying to train him to wear "big boy pants". Although she hated to resort to bribes, his favorite place to eat was Mc Donald's. SO she told him that if he could keep his big boy pants dry and clean all day, that they would go to Mc Donald's for supper.

Mitch came back a short time later, and Lisa knew from the look on his face that there'd already been an "accident". Before she could say anything, Mitch piped up, "How about Burger King?"

What's a Pointsweek?
Is it something to do with SuperBowl?

Is this funny?
Sorry chaps, English, don't understand your banter.

You think your writing is bad,
You haven't seen anything yet;
But of one thing you can bet
This TS owner can't write,
but can travel to any site.

Trevor,
Thank for entering my hat in the ring!
Here are some one liners which came my way:

... a fine is a tax for doing wrong, a tax is a fine for doing well....isn't it unnerving that doctors call what they do "practice"....the only cure for insomnia is to get more sleep...
