A guy calls the hospital. He says,
“You gotta send help! My wife’s going into labor!”
The nurse says, “Calm down. Is this her first child?”
He says, “No! This is her husband!”
A young woman drove into the auto garage and said her first car was due for an oil change. Wanting only the best for her prized possession, she’d brought her own filter and oil.
When the mechanic crawled under the car, she watched his every move. After the old oil was drained, she said she had bought the very best product for her car after overhearing a conversation between her mother and a neighbor on the subject of oil.
With a confident smile, she handed him two bottles of Pure Extra
Virgin Olive Oil.
A dad was playing tooth fairy when his daughter suddenly woke up.
Seeing the money in his hand, she cried out, “I caught you!”
The stunned father froze and tried to think of an explanation for why he, instead of the tooth fairy, was putting the money under her pillow—but her next words let him off the hook.
“You put that money back!” she said indignantly. “The tooth fairy left that for me!”
“Has your son decided what he wants to be when he grows up?” Joe asked his friend.
“He wants to be a garbageman,” he replied.
“That’s an unusual ambition to have at such a young age.”
“Not really. He thinks that garbagemen work only on Tuesdays.”
The bride kissed her father and placed something in his hand. Everyone in the room was wondering what was given to the father by the bride.
The father could feel the suspense in the air and all eyes were on him to divulge the secret and say something.
So he announced: “Ladies and gentlemen, today is the luckiest day of my life.” Then he raised his hands with what his daughter gave him and said, “My daughter has finally returned my credit card to me!”
About ninety 5th graders piled into the airliner on their way home from a school trip. Once they were in the air and the crew began serving drinks, you could hear the crew pleading with the children to settle down for the sake of the other passengers.
No amount of reasoning seemed to help, until the pilot thought of the solution that actually worked.
He picked up the cockpit mic and announced, “Children, this is the captain speaking. Don’t make me stop this airplane and come back there!”
It was a sunny, Saturday morning and Joe was visualizing his upcoming shot when a voice came over the clubhouse loudspeaker: “Would the man on the woman’s tee please back up to the men’s tee?”
Still deep in his routine, seemingly impervious to the interruption, the announcement came again:“Would the man on the women’s tee kindly back up to the men’s tee?!”
Joe had had enough. He shouted,
“Would the announcer in the clubhouse kindly be quiet and let me play my second shot?!”
Q: Can a kangaroo jump higher than the Empire State Building?
A: Of course. The Empire State
Building can’t jump.

A man was given the job of painting the yellow lines down the middle of a highway. On his first day, he painted six miles; the next day, three miles; the following day, less than a mile.
When the foreman asked the man why he kept painting less each day, he replied, “I just can’t do any better. Each day I keep getting farther away from the paint can.”

A woman schoolteacher was found guilty in traffic court.
The judge rose from the bench to announce his sentence.
“Madam, I have waited years for a schoolteacher to appear before this court.”
He smiled with delight. “Now, sit down at that table and write,
‘I will not run a red light’ five hundred times.”
