I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer

 

cans.

 

I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more

as

they get older, then it dawned on me . .. they were cramming for their

finals.

 

I thought about how mothers feed their babies with little tiny spoons and

 

forks, so I wonder what Chinese mothers use. Toothpicks?

 

Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we

supposed to do . . . write to these men? Why don't they just put their

pictures on the postage stamps so the mailmen could look for them while

they

delivered the mail?

considered

a hostage situation?

I went for a walk last night and my kids asked me how long I'd be gone.

I

said, "The whole time."

 

So what's the speed of dark?

 

How come you don't ever hear about gruntled employees? And who has been

dissing them anyhow?

 

After eating, do amphibians need to wait an hour before getting OUT of

the

water?

 

Why don't they just make mouse-flavored cat food?

 

If you're sending someone some Styrofoam, what do you pack it in?

 

I just got skylights put in my place. The people who live above me are

furious.

 

Why do they sterilize needles for lethal injections?

 

Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?
