Before he became Emperer, Julius once worked as a policeman.
But he wasn't very good at that, so he became a politician.

One example:
A female suspect would be chased, and they would call out,
"Juilius, seize her!"
he would just turn around, and say,
"Yes, You called."

Somebody broke into the local dog pound and released all the dogs. Police are desperately searching for leads.

And to quote a song, the cops are looking for ... " Who let the dogs out"

I saw a clip of him on Mock the Week, doing "Things you'd never hear on a cookery program". He says "Here's a dish anyone can cook," then stares directly at camera and says in tones of boundless contempt "You can't, Beatrice". Then he kind of blinks, pretends to check his notes, and says apologetically "No...sorry. You can't beat rice" and walks off looking annoyed at his "mistake".

I can't tell if you're trying to make a joke of some kind or you just haven't thought it through.

Have you heard of the new Star Trek reboot? Sir Patrick Stewart (as Jean-Luc Picard) will once again baldly go where no man has gone before.

Not wishing to be typecast in follicle-challenged science fiction, Sir Patrick will then reprise his role as the tormented Captain Ahab, saved from his watery fate after harpooning the great white whale by clinging alongside Ishmael to Quee-Quog's ornate coffin.

In this sequel to a remake Ahab (Stewart) pursues a great green sperm whale to the ends of the earth.

Working title: "Moby Pickle".
Opening line: "Call me Gherkin."

I didn't get that joke. Somebody please explain.
The skull is in the pelvis. Someone who "has their head up their ass" is someone with utter immunity to facts because they have carefully arranged themselves so that they cannot see them. Also anything coming out of their mouths will be well mixed with stuff that normally comes out the other end of the body. A typical politician...

You have now joined many of us in having the questionable merit of being a joke explainer. I'm writing a book " 100 jokes explained".

To paraphrase an old saying, "Explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog. Nobody laughs and the frog dies."

Before you do that, try googling the phrase "and the frog dies" to see who else has said it.

One of our presidents, possibly JFK, given to puns; allowed time for the Russian translators to explain his jokes to the Soviet premier. Using the above analogy, he was
"dissecting the frog while it lived". Vivisection!
