An
Englishman, lecturing on his travels, was speaking disparagingly about
the Scots in Canada and the mixing of the race with the Indians.
‘You’ll find,’ he said, ‘a great number of Scots half-breeds and French

A
Scotsman walked into a supermarket with his zipper down. A lady cashier
walked up to him and said, "Your barracks door is open." This is not a
phrase we Scotsmen normally use so he went on his way looking a bit
puzzled.
When he was about done shopping, a man came up and said, "Your fly is
open."
He zipped up and finished his shopping. He then intentionally got in the
line to check out where the lady was who told him about his "barracks
door." He was planning to have a little fun with her. When he reached

Jock's
nephew came to him with a problem. "I have my choice of two women," he

old widow whom I can't stand."
"Follow your heart; marry the girl you love," Jock counselled.
"Very well, Uncle Jock," said the nephew, "that's sound advice."
"By the way," asked Jock "where does the widow live?"
A
Scotsman was invited for a visit to the home of his Canadian friend.
Soon after the Scotsman arrived, he glanced out the window to see a huge
beast just outside. He pointed, and asked his Canadian friend, "Och,
lad, what's that?" The Canadian replied, "Oh, that's a moose." The
Scotsman stared in disbelief, and replied, "That's a moose?! Well, how
big are yer cats around here?"
