hUMOR For Feb 8th

Walmart Greeter

Charley, a new retiree greeter at Walmart, just couldn't

seem to get to work on time. Every day he was 5, 10,

sometimes 15 minutes late. But he was a good worker, really

tidy, clean shaven, sharp minded and a real credit to the

company and obviously demonstrating their "Older Person

Friendly" policies.

One day the boss was in a real quandary about how to deal

with it. Finally, he called him into the office for a talk.

"Charley, I have to tell you, I like your work ethic, you do

a bang on job, but your being late so often is quite

bothersome."

"Yes, I know boss, and I am working on it."

"Well good, you are a team player. That's what I like to

hear. It's odd though, your coming in late. I know you're

retired from the Armed Forces. What did they say if you came

in late there?"

"They said, 'Good morning, General. Tea or coffee this

morning, sir?'"

Cow Poke

On vacation one year I went to a resort in Wyoming. As part of the usual activities, a neighboring ranch invited guests from our resort to participate in a cattle drive. After watching 20 make-believe cowpokes whooping and hollering, I rode up to the ranch owner and asked her how many cowboys it normally takes to drive a herd of that size.

"One," she replied.

"One?!" I said incredulously.

"And a dog," she added.

God’s Left Hand

Little Vernie was spending the weekend with his grandmother. His grandmother decided to take him to the park on Saturday morning. It had been snowing all night and everything was beautiful.

His grandmother remarked... "doesn't it look like an artist painted this scenery? Did you know God painted this just for you?"

Bobby said, "Yes, God did it and he did it left handed."

This confused his grandmother a bit, and she asked him "What makes you say God did this with his left hand?"

"Well," said Vernie, "we learned at Sunday School last week that Jesus sits on God's right hand!"

Memory Improvement

I knew that as I was getting older, I was finally able to admit that
certain things were starting to "slip". In an effort to prevent this
memory "slippage", I went enthusiastically to a three-hour seminar on
memory improvement.

After an hour I slipped out. I took the same course, given by the
same professor, last year.

While working as a pediatric nurse, I had the difficult

assignment of giving immunization shots to children. One

day I entered the examining room to give four-year-old

Lizzie her shot.

"NO! NO! NO!" she screamed.

"Lizzie," her mother scolded. "That's not polite behavior."

At that, the girl yelled even louder, "NO, THANK YOU! NO,

THANK YOU! NO, THANK YOU!

One woman was talking to her friend, "You should listen to

my neighbor," she says. "She is always bad-mouthing her poor

husband behind his back. I think that's so rude. Look at me!

My husband is fat, lazy and cheap; but have you ever heard

me say a bad word about about him?"

Got Any Grapes

A duck walks into a bar and asks, "Got any grapes?" The bartender, confused, tells the duck that no, his bar doesn't serve grapes. The duck thanks him and leaves.

The next day, the duck returns and says, "Got any grapes?" Again, the bartender tells him that, no, the bar does not serve grapes, has never served grapes, and, furthermore, will never serve grapes. The duck, a little ruffled, thanks him and leaves.

The next day, the duck returns, but before he can say anything, the bartender begins to yell: ''Listen, duck! This is a bar! We do not serve grapes! If you ever ask for grapes again, I will nail your stupid duck beak to the bar!''

The duck is silent for a moment, and then asks, ''Got any nails?''

Confused, the bartenders says no.

''Good!'' says the duck. ''Got any grapes?''

Purple Monkey

A man walked into a bar and the bartender said, "Don't touch the purple monkey up in room 222." The man sneered and went straight up to room 222 and opened the door. There sitting right in front of him was a purple monkey.

The man laughed again and touched the monkey. He then started down the stairs...the monkey was following him. The man went outside and got into his jeep. The monkey got in the back seat. The man ignored him.

Later the man drove to the Eiffel Tower. The man got out of the car and the monkey followed. Later the man finally reached the top, but the monkey was right behind him.

The man just burst and yelled, "What do you want!"

The monkey came up to him and said, "Tag...you're it.

Vacuum Salesman

An enthusiastic door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman goes to

the first house in his new territory. He knocks, and a

really mean, tough-looking lady opens the door. Before she

has a chance to say anything, he runs inside and dumps

garden soil all over the carpet.

He says, "Lady, if this vacuum cleaner don't do wonders

cleaning this up, I'll eat every bit of it."

She turns to him with a smirk and says, "You want ketchup on

that?"

The salesman says, "Why do you ask?"

She says, "We just moved in and we haven't got the

electricity turned on yet."
