~~ Pete: Why does history keep repeating itself?
Gus: Because we weren't listening the first time.

~~ Pete was having a problem with mice in his apartment.
"Gus," he told a friend, "I’ve tried everything and those damn
mice keep coming back."
"I had the same thing man," his friend says.
"All you have to do is stuff steel wool in their little holes."
"That’s it?" the Pete asked.
"I’ll do it tonight if it means getting rid of the damn rodents."
About a week later Pete gets a call.
"How’s it going with the mice, buddy?"
"Not so good, Gus."
"What’s the problem?" his friend asks.
"To be honest, I’m having a lot of trouble holding their little
legs apart."

.
~~ A friend of mine mentioned that she had an appointment
with her son's Spanish-immersion kindergarten teacher.
I knew that regular parent-teacher meetings were not due
for a while, and when I asked if there was a problem,
she related a conversation she had had with her son.
"Mom I can speak three languages now!" he said excitedly.
"Three?" she questioned.
"Yes" he replied proudly. "English, Spanish and Inappropriate.

.
~~ Seeing my son open the refrigerator door, construct a ham,
cheese and pickle sandwich and close the door again...........
while continuing to dribble a basketball leads me to think that
his is a generation of which we can expect remarkable
achievements.

.
~~ In the spirit of downsizing, my wife and I gave up our
$700k home for a $400k home and the 'good' news is,
we didn't even have to move.

.
~~ Sign on a pamphlet-folding machine at a printing company:
"Restricted area.......

TEACHER: And, what is the plural of child?

~~ A note sent to parents from our child's school:
"Here is your progress book, parent access username
and password.
Sign the verification form at the top, where indicated,
and return to school with your child in the envelope."

.
~~ The difference between fiction and reality?
Fiction has to make sense."

.
~~ On an airplane, boxing champ Muhammad Ali refused
to buckle his seatbelt when the attendant asked him to.
"Superman don't need no seatbelt...." Ali told her.
The flight attendant wasn't impressed with the champ.
"Superman don't need no airplane," she countered...
Ali buckled up.

.
~~ After a car crash one of the drivers is lying injured at the
side of the road.
"Don't worry," says a policeman, "A Red Cross nurse is coming
to attend to you."
"Oh, no!" the victim groans.
"Couldn't I have a blonde, a cheerful one instead?"
