TIME TO LAUGH FROM THE READER'S DIGEST

[ Edited ]

1.  My six-year-old loved his pet fish.  He watched and fed him faithfully, morning and night.  But one day while he was at school, his fish died so I flushed it down the toilet.

I told him when he got home, and he was inconsolable. Nothing I said helped.  After awhile I asked, "Why are you

crying so much?"  Arching his back, he shouted.  "I wanted

to flush."

 

2.  I'm lucky that my wife and mother are very close.

I realized just how close the time I drove my mother to

her doctor which my wife usually does.  When the doctor

came into the room, my own dear mother introduced me

as her "daughter-in-law's husband."

 

3.  Although I'd been dating a woman for several months,

I guess I didn't know her as well as I thought.  One day

I called, and her ten year old son answered.  "Hi, I said,

"It's Tom, can I speak with your mom?"  He responded,

"Are you Tom 1 or 2?" Needless to say, his mother is now down to one Tom.

 

4.  My daughter was anxious to do some landscaping at

her new home, but then she called up sounding

discouraged.  "I don't think I'll ever get these flowers

planted, she moaned.  "It says to plant in full sun, but

it's been cloudy for four days."

 

5.  Toddler walks by with a hammer.

     ME: What are you going to make?"

     TODDLER"  Noise.

 

                       QUOTABLE QUOTES

 

1.  Some of the greatest conflicts are not between two

    people but between one person and himself. 

                                                           Garth brooks

2.  All I need in a relationship is someone

    to watch TV with me.                      Jennifer Lawrence

 

3.  A smile is truly the best thing you can put on your face. 

                                                            Christie Brinkley

 

4.  I wouldn't want to come back through reincarnation.

     Once was quite enough for me and everybody!

                                                             Hans Zimmer

                                                             Composer

5.         I find television very educational.

The minute somebody turns it on, I go into the library

                      and read a good book.

                                                               Groucho Marx

 

                         NEVER SAY NEVER

 

1,  Never give up your seat for a lady.  That's how I lost

my job as a bus driver.

 

2.  Never, under any circumstances, take a laxative and a

sleeping pill at the same time.

 

3.  Never keep up with the Joneses.  Drag them down to 

your level.  It's cheaper.

 

4.  Never get annoyed if your neighbor plays music at 2 a.m., call him at four and tell him how much you enjoyed it.

 

                                 LAUGHTER

 

All the baby books tell you that infants need to eat every

two to three hours, what they fail to mention is that this

behavior continues until the child turns 18 and moves

out of your house.

 

Halloween, Trick or Treat, my favorite holiday, where you

can trespass on a stranger's property and make a non-

negotiable demand.

 

ME:  Wow, nice costume.

COP: Step out of the car, sir.

 

Apartment life often means little privacy.  I realized that

one day when my kitten was running around my bedroom,

climbing onto shelves and into the dresser as I was getting

ready for work.  I finally exploded at the kitten:  "You'd

better sit down, you're getting on my nerves!" 

A second later, a voice from upstairs responded, "OK"
