A pick pocket was up in court for
a series of petty crimes. The judge said "Mr. Banks you
are hereby fined $100." The lawyer stood up and said
"Thanks, my lord, however my client only has $75 on him
at this time, but if you'd allow him a few minutes in
the crowd. . ."
At a jewelry store, a young man
bought an expensive locket as a present for his
girlfriend. "Don't you want her name engraved upon it?"
asked the jeweler. The young man thought for a moment,
and then, ever the pragmatic, steadfastly replied,
"No, just engrave it: To My One And Only Love. That way,
if we break up and she throws it back to me in anger, I
can use it again."
A minister was preoccupied with
thoughts of how he was going to ask the congregation to
come up with more money than they were expecting for
repairs to the church building. Therefore, he talked
with the organist to see what kind of inspirational
music she could play after the announcement about the
finances to get the congregation in a giving mood.
"Don't worry," she said. "I'll think of something."
During the service, the minister paused and said,
"Brothers and Sisters, we are in great difficulty; the
roof repairs cost twice as much as we expected, and we
need $4,000 more. Any of you who can pledge $100 or
more, please stand up." Just at that moment, the
organist started playing, "The Star Spangled Banner."
Reaching the end of a job interview,
the Human Resources Person asked a young Engineer fresh
out of Texas A&M, "And what starting salary were you
looking for?" The Engineer said, "In the neighbourhood
of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package."
The interviewer said, "Well, what would you say to a
package of 5 weeks vacation, 14 paid holidays, full
medical and dental, a company matching retirement fund
for 50% of your salary, and a company car leased every 2
years -- say, a red Corvette?" The Engineer sat up
straight and said, "Wow! Are you kidding?" And the
interviewer replied, "Yeah, but you started it."
A woman was trying hard to get the
catsup to come out of the bottle. During her struggle
the phone rang so she asked her four-year-old daughter
to answer the phone. "It's the minister, Mommy," the
child said to her mother. Then she added, "Mommy can't
come to the phone right now. She's hitting the bottle."
How about the two old men, one a
retired professor of psychology and the other a retired
professor of history. Their wives had talked them into a
two week stay at a hotel in the Catskills. They were
sitting around on the porch of the hotel watching the
sun set. The history professor said to the psychology
professor, "Have you read Marx?" To which the professor
of psychology said, "Yes, I think it's the wicker
chairs."
