BILLY's maternal grandmother had just come for a visit , and he was ecstatic. "Now daddy can do his trick!" yelled Billy with glee. "What trick is that?" Grandma asked. "Well," answered Billy, "Daddy said that if you stayed for a whole week, he'd climb the walls. I never saw anyone do that before." |
AN ATTRACTIVE young woman was sitting alone at a bar. "Excuse me, may I buy you a drink?" asked a young man. "To a motel ?" she yelled. "No, no. You misunderstood. I just asked you if I could buy you a drink." "You're asking me to go to a motel?" she screamed, even more excited. Completely bewildered, the young man withdrew to a corner. Everybody stared at him indignantly. A little later, the young women came to his table. "I'm sorry to have created such a scene, " she said. "But I'm a psychology student studying human behavior in unexpected situations." The young man looked at her and shouted, "What? A hundred dollars?!" |
A MAN, toolbox in hand, rang the doorbell. A woman answered. "Good morning, I've come to fix the pipe. I'm the plumber." "But I didn't call a plumber." "What? Aren't you Mrs. Foster?" "No. She moved away a year ago." "How do you like that ? They ask for a plumber, claiming it's an emergency , and then they move." |
AFTER examining a woman and finding her in need of immediate hospitalization, I told her husband that I would send an ambulance for her. Several hours later the hospital admitting clerk phoned to say that the husband had arrived in the ambulance - without his wife. Puzzled I asked to speak with him. "Didn't you understand that the ambulance was sent for your wife?" I asked sternly. "Well, where is she?" "We had an argument," he answered bleakly, "and she took the bus." - Nathan Flaxman, M.D.,in Medical Economics. |
AN impatient dowager pushed the button, then fumed when the hotel elevator did not arrive immediately. "Where have you been?!" she snapped at the operator. Back came the sensible reply : "Where can you go in an elevator?" | LETTERED on the side of a Bell Telephone truck in New York City was the message : "Ask Me About Better Telephone Service." Someone had scrawled in the dust below: "I don't talk to no truck." |
MY husband is always chiding me about my extravagant purchases, so I was not surprise at his attitude when I told him I had bought an expensive tree for my parents' wedding anniversary. "But," I explained, "the three is six years old." At this point he exploded: "You mean you spent all that money on a used tree?!" - Philipa | MY wife can get very tricky on an autumn afternoon. The other day, she came up to me and said, "There's one thing I want to make perfectly clear." I said, "What's that?" She said, "The lawn," and handed me a rake. - Robert Orben. |
