The great chef put in much thyme while learning his craft in Amsterdam - he likes to call them his 'Holland days.'

Did you hear the one about the dyslexic, agnostic insomniac?
He'd lie awake all night long, wondering if there really is a dog.

I couldn't quite remember how to throw a boomerang, but eventually it came back to me.

Not a joke, but I always thought that this was an exceptionally clever anagram (seeing as this thread is about the English language):
A man, a plan, a canal... Panama!
Has anyone got amy other good ones like that?

Eye Halve a Spelling Chequer
Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rarely ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect in it's weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

Or the Japanese carmaker's advert extolling the combination of performance and protection in their vehicles: A Toyota. Race fast, safe car. A Toyota.
Or the regular in a Cajun diner placing his order: "Yo, Bob! Mug o'gumbo, boy!"
