Marilyn Monroe was an icon of the silver screen, but I think she looks better in the pool.

She is not exactly accessible to the public in the year 2007, but this lucky street artist gets to dip his toe in Marilyn's pool. Or does he? Is it really the artist in the picture, or did he paint himself on the sidewalk?

Marilyn Monroe joke

Marilyn is at the gates of heaven and she is being asked by St Peter who she would like to be if she had a second chance at life.

"I want to be Alice Kapipelean."

"Excuse me?!?" asks St. Peter.

"I want to be Alice Kapipelean!" she exclaims.

St. Peter replies, "Pardon me, we have no record of any Alice Kapipelean being on earth."

"There is TOO an Alice Kapipelean and I have proof right HERE!!!" shouts Marilyn.

St. Peter takes the news article and reads it. "Oh my. You have misread this article. It says that the Alaska Pipeline was laid by 500 men in six months."

Marilyn was once quoted as saying "I don't mind making jokes, but I don't want to look like one." (That is one to add to our list of Funny Quotes!)
