While out bicycling one day with my eight-year-old granddaughter, I got a little wistful.
“In ten years,” I began, “you’ll want to be with your friends and you won’t go walking, biking, and swimming with me like you do now.”
Carolyn shrugged, “That’s okay, because in ten years you’ll be too old to do all those things anyway.”

I really need a day between Saturday and Sunday.
A motorcycle cop was rushed to the hospital with an inflamed appendix.
The doctors operated and advised him that all was well. However, the patrolman kept feeling something pulling at the hairs on his chest. Worried that it might be a second surgery the doctors hadn’t told him about, he finally got enough energy to pull his hospital gown down enough so he could look at what was making him so uncomfortable.
Taped firmly across his hairy chest were three wide strips of adhesive tape, the ultra sticky kind. Written in large black letters was the sentence, “Get well soon! Luv, from the nurse you gave a ticket to last week!”

“no-bell” prize.
A man is on trial for stealing an overcoat. The judge went straight to the point. “Did you steal this man’s overcoat?” he demanded.
“No sir,” the defendant replied, with a grin. “I was just playing joke on him.”
“And where did you take the coat?” asked the judge.
“I removed it from the coat rack in the restaurant and carried it home with me.”
“Guilty,” snapped the judge.
“Guilty! Guilty of what?” asked the defendant.
“Guilty of carrying a joke too far!”

My spouse says I have 2 faults. I don’t listen and…something else.
Two years after my heart attack, I was teaching my college course when I felt discomfort in my chest. I paused the class to pop my medication and felt better quickly.
“Now, if I ever do have a heart attack,” I told my students, “I will give extra credit to whoever gives me CPR.”
One of them shouted out, “How much?”

The best way to discourage Knock Knock jokes is just by saying, “Come in!”
A man called his neighbor to help move a couch that was stuck in the doorway. They got on either end of the couch and struggled until they were exhausted, but the couch wouldn’t budge.
“Forget it,” the man finally gasped. “We’ll never get this in.”
A frustrated voice came from the other end of the couch: “IN?!?!”
