Joke - The Gift!

On the first day of school, the children brought gifts for their teacher. The florist's son brought the teacher a bouquet of flowers. The candy-store owner's daughter gave the teacher a pretty box of candy. Then the liquor-store owner's son brought up a big, heavy box. 


The teacher lifted it up and noticed that it was leaking a little bit. She touched a drop of the liquid with her finger and tasted it. 

"Is it wine?" she guessed. 

"No," the boy replied. She tasted another drop and asked, " Champagne ? 

"No," said the little boy... "It's a puppy!" 


Joke - Things My Mother Taught Me

Joke - Blank Report Card

A little boy had been pawing over the stock of greeting cards at a stationery store. 

After a few minutes the clerk became curious and asked, "Just what is it you're looking for, sonny? Birthday greeting? Message to a sick friend? Anniversary congratulations to your mom and dad?" 

The boy shook his head, "No." 

"Then what kind of card is it that you want?" asked the clerk. 

The boy answered wistfully, "Got anything in the line of blank report cards?"

Joke - Naming The Babies

A man was taking his wife, who was pregnant with twins, to the hospital when his car went out of control and crashed. 

Regaining consciousness, he saw his brother, a relentless practical joker, sitting at his bed side. 

He asked his brother how his wife was doing and his brother said, "Don't worry, everybody is fine and you have a son and a daughter. 

But the hospital was in a real hurry to get the birth certificates filed and since both you and your wife were unconscious, I named them for you." 

The husband was thinking to himself, "Oh no, what has he done now?" and asked with some trepidation, "Well, bro, what did you name them?" 

Whereupon, his brother replied, "I named the little girl Denise." 

The husband, relieved, said, "That's a lovely name! And what did you come up with for my son?" 

The brother winked and replied, "Denephew."

Joke - First Day As A Cab Driver

The passenger tapped the cab driver on the shoulder to ask him something. The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the sidewalk, and stopped centimetres from a shop window. 

For a second everything went quiet in the cab, then the driver said, "Look mister, don't ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!" 

The passenger apologized and said he didn't realize that a little tap could scare him so much. 

The driver replied, "You're right. I'm sorry, it's not really your fault. This is my first day as a cab driver. I've been driving a hearse for the last 25 years".

Humorous Travel Laws

No flight ever leaves on time unless you are running late and need the delay to make the flight. 

If you are running late for a flight, it will depart from the farthest gate in the terminal. 

If you arrive very early for a flight, it inevitably will be delayed. 

Flights never leave from Gate No.1 at any terminal in the world. 

If you must work on your flight, you will experience turbulence just as soon as you touch pen to paper. 

If you are assigned a middle seat, you can determine who has the seats on the aisle and the window while you are still in the boarding area. Just look for the two largest passengers. 
The crying baby on board your flight is always seated next to you. 

The best-looking woman on your flight is never seated next to you. 

The less carry-on luggage space available on an aircraft, the more carry-on luggage passengers will bring aboard.

Cars are backed up for miles. Finally, a police car comes up. The cop gets out of his car and walks to the truck driver, puts his hands on his hips and says, "Got stuck, huh?"

Joke - Measurement Basics

Bubba and Junior were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking up.
A woman walked by and asked what they were doing. "We're supposed to find the height of the flagpole," said Bubba, "but we don't have a ladder."

The woman took a wrench from her purse, loosened a few bolts, and laid the pole down. Then she took a tape measure from her pocket, took a measurement and announced, "Eighteen feet, six inches," and walked away.

Junior shook his head and laughed. "Ain't that just like a dumb blonde! We ask for the height, and she gives us the length!"
