Exit with Laughter

No question about it! Laughter is truly the “best medicine,” “the shock absorber that eases the blows of life,” and the anecdote for happiness.  Here’s our latest sampling of things I found amusing.....

 v The little boy’s mother was furious.  “Young man, where did you learn to talk that way?”  The boy hesitated, looked toward his father, and asked, “Well, Dad, should I tell her?”

 v Advice to husbands:  Never try to guess your wife’s size.  Just buy her anything marked ‘petite’ and hold on to the receipt.

 v Patience is a good thing. Don’t give up.  It took Noah six months to find a parking place.

 v A sign carried by a hitchhiker:  “Whither thou goest, I will go.”

 v Life is what happens to you while you’re busy planning more important things.

 v A preacher said to a precocious six-year-old boy:  “So, your mother says your prayers for you each night.  Very commendable.  What does she say?”  The little boy replied, “Thank God, he’s in bed.”

 v It was a blistering hot day.  The house was full of guests, and things weren’t going too well.  Finally, the hostess got everyone seated for dinner and asked her seven-year-old girl to say grace.  “But mother,” said the little girl, “I don’t know what to say.”  “Yes you do,” said the mother, “just say the last prayer you heard me use.”  “Obediently, the little girl bowed her head and recited hesitantly, “Oh, Lord, why did I invite all these people on such a hot day?”

v Many people live their lives like the high-rise workman who was carelessly walking on an upper beam one day and fell off.  As he was falling, a man on the 21st floor cried out, “How are you doing?”  The man responded, “So far so good.”

v The worst thing abour retirement is having to drink coffee on your own time.

v Learn to say “no.”  It will be more use to you than to be able to read Latin.

 And finally...

v A boy was reprimanded for laughing out loud during school.  “Teacher, I didn’t mean to.  I was smiling, and the smile busted.”

Till next time....
