Darling,” said the husband to his new bride, “I am not casting any reflections on your cooking, but I sure wish you could learn to make the kinda of bread my mother use to make.”

“I don’t think that should be too difficult,” she said sweetly, “If you will learn to make the dough my father used to make.”

The reason reusable shopping bags last so long is that we forget to take them back to shop with.

A husband went to buy a birthday gift for his wife. Some friends had been invited over that night to celebrate her fortieth, and he wanted to get something special. At the store he spotted some cute little music boxes. One blue one was playing “Happy Birthday.” Thinking they were all the same, he chose a red one and had it gift-wrapped.

Later, at dinner, he gave it to his wife and asked her to open it.

When she lifted the lid, out came the tune to “The Old Gray Mare, She Ain’t What She Used to Be!”

You know it’s going to be a bad day when your twin brother forgets your birthday.

After leaving the racetrack, Joe bumped into his old friend Jon on the bus. 

“Say,” Jon said, “How’s it going?” 

“Going? You want to hear one of the most amazing things that ever happened? Tell me, what’s today’s date?”

“July seventh.” 

“Right. The seventh day, of the seventh month. I go to the track at seven minutes past seven. My son is seven years old today, and we live at number seven, Seventh Avenue.” 

“Let me guess,” Jon interrupted. “You put everything you had on the seventh horse in the seventh race.” 

“Right.”

“And he won!” Jon sighed.

“No. He came in seventh.”

Did you hear about the fellow who sat up all night wondering where the sun went at night? It finally dawned on him.

As the church service got underway, the minister said to the congregation, “Let us pray.” Then in his very preacher-sounding voice, he began, “Father, we know we are but dust…” 

During the short pause before the next phrase of the prayer, a child’s loud whisper could be heard, “Mommy, what is butt dust?”  

The prayerful mood was lost as embarrassed snickers turned into loud guffaws and needless to say, the minister never finished that prayer.

People think “icy” is the easiest word to spell… Come to think of it, I see why.

I had a job offer from a large company and they offered to fly me out to the interview on business class. 

During the return flight we were given gourmet brownies and cookies. Not hungry, I decided to save them for later, so I placed them in an airsickness courtesy bag.

After the plane landed, I got up to leave and a flight attendant approached me if I wanted her to dispose of the bag.

I said, “No thanks, I’m saving it for my kids.”

You’re getting old when you don’t care where your wife goes, just so you don’t have to go along.
