Default Calling All Minnesotans



I am having withdrawal pains from my lack of hearing those very funny Ole/ Lena jokes.

Any takers?

Our whole family is going to Big Sand Lake by Park Rapids next week. I will see if Sven Olson has any new ones that are clean enough to post here.

Ole has an industrial accident and is driven To Duluth. When He gets there ,he says "you gotta help me I cut off my fingers on a table saw."

The Doctor says "Ole you should have brought the fingers! They could be reattached at the Mayo Clinic" "Why didn't you pick them up?"

"Pick them up ..with what?"

Sven decides to go to the North Shore and he stops at the Greyhound Bus Depot.
"Dus dis bus go to Daloot"

Driver " no it goes beep beep !"

Ole and Lena live on the border of Minnesota and Iowa in Southern Minnesota. One day the surveyor comes by and says a mistake was made many years ago in the surveying and their farm is actually in Iowa.

Ole says to Lena, "Thank God for that. I don't think I could take another Minnesota winter."

Ole goes fishin' everyday and comes home with bucket fuls of fish.

the Game warden follows Ole out to the ol' fishin' hole .
He watches as Ole reaches into the tackle box and pulls out a stick of tnt.
Ole lights it
The warden says "Ole' you can't do that! It's illegal"
(The fuse continues to burn )

Ole' sees the fuse is getting short and says
"did ya come out to Bee Ess or to fish?"

Ole is a great winter fisherman.
"What do you use for bait Ole ,minnows?"

Ole shakes his head
"Artificial lures ?"

Ole shakes his head
Sven says "what do you use den?"

"mmmmnmnnmn'

"What?"


Ole finally opens his mouth "worms but you got to keep them warm!"

Ole goes out ice fishing.

He finds a promising spot, drills a hole in the ice and lowers his jig into it.

Getting no bites at the first hole he moves on to the next spot, drills his hole, and again begins to fish.

Suddenly from high above he hears a deep voice that says Ole - Dere are no fish Dere

Ole begins to shake and look around for the source of the voice

Again the voice from on high Ole - Deres no fish dere

Ole trembling uncontrollably now hollars Izz dat you Lord?

The voice bellows down "No dis is sven, da manager of da ice rink"

I was surprised to see featured on a local sports station when living in Minnesota a guy who had a $100,000 ice house for winter fishinh. that place had every convenience you could imagine TV Kitchen family room etc. and of course seven areas around the interior perimeter to sit and fish. Now that's some serious ice fishing

You probably heard that Lena tried out for the Olympic swim team in the 200 meter breaststroke. She came in last in the the qualifying round. When she was interviewed after her loss, she said, "I hate to complain but I tink some of dose vimen vas using der arms."
