Sometimes, it is funny! A Few Good Guffaws The Memory Test Three elderly men are at the doctor's office for a memory test. The doctor asks the first man, "What is three times three?" "274," is his reply. The doctor rolls his eyes and looks up at the ceiling, and asks the second man, "It's your turn. What is three times three?" "Tuesday," replies the second man. The doctor shakes his head sadly, then asks the third man, "Okay, your turn. What's three times three?" "Nine," says the third man. "That's great!" says the doctor. "How did you get that?" "Simple," he says, "just subtract 274 from Tuesday." A Satisfied Taxpayer There was a man who computed his taxes for 1998 and discovered that he owed $3,407. He packaged up his payment and included this letter: Dear IRS: Enclosed is my 1998 Tax Return & payment. Please take note of the attached article from the USA Today newspaper. In the article, you will see that the Pentagon is paying $171.50 for hammers and NASA has paid $600.00 for a toilet seat. Please find enclosed four toilet seats (value $2,400) and six hammers (value $1,029). This brings my total payment to $3,429.00. Please note the overpayment of $22.00 and apply it to the "Presidential Election Fund," as noted on my return. Might I suggest you send the above mentioned fund a "1.5 inch screw." (See attached article...HUD paid $22.00 for a 1.5 inch Phillips Head Screw.) It has been a pleasure to pay my tax bill this year, and I look forward to paying it again next year. Sincerely, A Satisfied Taxpayer He deserves Paradise who makes his companions laugh. --Koran
Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine. --Lord Byron (1788 - 1824)
You don't stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing. --Michael Pritchard
Laughter is inner jogging. --Norman Cousins (1912 - 1990)
You can't deny laughter; when it comes, it plops down in your favorite chair and stays as long as it wants. --Stephen King (1947 - ), "Hearts in Atlantis"
Laughter is the closest distance between two people. --Victor Borge (1909 - 2000) |
