General Custer is standing on a hill overlooking the Little Big Horn. In the distance he can hear Sitting Bull's braves pounding on their drums.

He turns to a little geordie soldier in his ranks, "listen" he says, "they have war drums."

The geordie replies, "why, man! The f*ckin', thievin' bas*ards..."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My wife has started visiting a new hairdressers run by a geordie girl.

Today my wife asked for a 'perm'.

The geordie girl started, "I wandered lonely as a cloud..."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A geordie and a mackem get into a nasty car accident. Both vehicles are really wrecked, but amazingly neither of them are hurt.

After they crawl out of their cars, the Mackem says, "so you're a geordie, that's interesting. I'm a Sunderland fan... Wow! Just look at our cars. There's nothing left but, fortunately, we are unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace the rest of our days."

The geordie replied, "I totally agree - this must be a sign from God!" The geordie went on, "and look at this - here's another miracle. My car is completely demolished but this bottle of whisky didn't break. Surely God wants us to drink it, to celebrate the fact we are alive and kicking?"

He hands the bottle to the Mackem who nods his head in agreement, opens it and takes few big swigs from the bottle, then hands it back to the geordie. The geordie takes the bottle, immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it back to the Mackem. The Mackem asks, "aren't you having any?"
The geordie replies, "nah...I think I'll just wait for the police......"

[edit (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Geordie&action=edit&section=2)] Geographical coverage

When referring to the people, as opposed to the dialect, dictionary definitions of a Geordie typically refer to "a native or inhabitant of Newcastle upon Tyne, England, or its environs",[17] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geordie#cite_note-env1-16) an area that encompasses North Tyneside (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Tyneside), Newcastle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcastle_upon_Tyne), South Tyneside (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Tyneside) and Gateshead (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gateshead)[18] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geordie#cite_note-17)[19] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geordie#cite_note-18)[20] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geordie#cite_note-BlaydonRaces-19). However, just as a Cockney (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockney) is often colloquially defined as someone "born within the sound of the Bow bells (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bow_bells)", a Geordie can be defined as someone born "within spitting distance of the Tyne (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Tyne)".[21] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geordie#cite_note-20) Another interpretation is the mining areas of the North East of England (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_East_of_England).[14] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geordie#cite_note-hott-13)
Although the dialects of North East of England (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_East_of_England) were often grouped together as Geordie[22] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geordie#cite_note-21) in modern times this is incorrect. This misconception is usually made by people from outside of the north east (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_East_England).
People from Sunderland (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunderland) have been nicknamed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_regional_nicknames) Mackems (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mackem) in recent generations. However, the earliest known recorded use of the term found by the Oxford English Dictionary (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford_English_Dictionary) occurred as late as 1988.[23] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geordie#cite_note-22)



That sounds like somebody I know:hmm:
