John had just won first prize at a cat show and had received a 10-day cruise to the Puerto Rico. The catch was, though, pets weren’t allowed on the cruise. So John decided to leave his cat with his best friend, Al. Al agreed to come over to John’s house and live with his mom for the duration of the cruise. John told Al, “Just feed the cat three meals a day, and take good care of him. He’s my prize-winning cat!” And with that, he left. The next day, John phoned Al on his cell phone and asked, “How are things?”

To which Al responded, “Things are fine.”

“How’s Mom?”

“Mom’s fine.”

“How’s the cat?”

“The cat’s fine.” Satisfied, John hung up. Next day, John called Al again, asking the same questions.

“How are things?”

“Things are fine.”

“How’s Mom?”

“Mom’s fine.”

“How’s the cat?”

“The cat’s DEAD.”

“WHAT?!?” John was quite distressed. “How could you let it die? It was my prize cat!”

“Well, John, I’m sorry, but I couldn’t do anything, I didn’t see it. But what I think happened was that the cat was on the roof, fell off, and broke his leg. Then, he hobbled out into the road, and got run over.” John was cooling down a bit now, and said, “Well, couldn’t you have tried to break it to me over time? You could have said it bit by bit. For example, you could have first said ‘The cat’s on the roof’, then the next day said ‘The cat fell off the roof, and broke its leg’, see what I’m saying.”

“Yeah, yeah, I get it. See you later, John.”

“Ok… bye.” John hung up. The next day, John phoned Al again.

“How are things?”

“Things are fine.”

“How’s Mom?”

“Umh,” Al said, “Mom’s on the roof.”

My friend Nancy and I decided to introduce her elderly mother to the magic of the Internet. Our first move was to access Google, and we told her it could answer any question she had.

Nancy’s mother was very skeptical until Nancy said, “It’s true, Mom.

“Think of something to ask it.” As I sat with fingers poised over the keyboard, Nancy’s mother thought a minute, then responded, “How is Aunt Helen feeling?”

Grandpa was always going on about the good old days, and the lower cost of living, in particular…

“When I was a kid, my mom could send me to the store, and I’d get a salami, two pints of milk, 6 oranges, 2 loaves o’ bread, and a magazine, some new blue jeans… all for a dollar!!

Then Grandpa said sadly …”You can’t DO that any more…they got those darn video cameras everywhere you look……”

A vampire bat came flapping in from the night covered in fresh blood and parked himself on the roof of the cave to get some sleep.

Pretty soon all the other bats smelled the blood and began hassling him about where he got it. He told them to knock it off and let him get some sleep but they persisted in hassling him to no end until finally he gave in.

“OK!” he said with exasperation, “Follow me.” and he flew out of the cave with hundreds of bats following close behind him.

Down through the valley they went, across the river and into the deep forest. Finally he slowed down and all the other bats excitedly gathered around him.

“Do you see that tree over there?” he asked.

“Yes, yes, yes!” the bats all screamed in a frenzy.

“Good,” said the first bat, “Because I DIDN’T!”

A man lay sprawled across three entire seats in the posh theater. When the usher came by and noticed this, he whispered to the man, “Sorry, sir, but you’re only allowed one seat.”

The man groaned but didn’t budge. The usher became impatient.

“Sir, if you don’t get up from there I’m going to have to call the manager.”

Again, the man just groaned, which infuriated the usher who turned and marched briskly back up the aisle in search of his manager. In a few moments, both the usher and the manager returned and stood over the man.

Together the two of them tried repeatedly to move him, but with no success. Finally, they summoned the police.

The cop surveyed the situation briefly then asked, “All right buddy, what’s your name?”

“Sam,” the man moaned.

“Where ya from, Sam?” With pain in his voice Sam replied “the balcony.”
