~~ My dad was in the car just about to leave for work when my

mom called out to him.
He left the car door open as he hurried back to the house to
retrieve his briefcase.
Then he drove the 30 minutes to work.
He parked, and just before he got out, our neighbor's white cat,
who had been hidden from view in the backseat, meowed.

~~ Johnny: “There’s going to be trouble at the grocer’s.”
Mother: “Why, Dear?”
Johnny: “His wife just had a baby girl, and all week he had a
sign on his window saying “Boy Wanted”

☺
~~ Max, our dog, was so popular with the children in our
neighborhood that we joked he knew more people then we did.
We didn't know how true that was until the day one of my
neighbors told my sister-in-law Lana that she had seen Lana's
daughter the day before.
"Who was she with?" asked Lana.
"I don't know the people's names," our neighbor replied,
"but their dog's name is Max."

☺
~~ trying very hard to understand this generation.
They have adjusted the timetable for childbearing so that
menopause and teaching a 16-year-old to drive will occur in
the same week.

☺
~~ My boss's marriage was obviously a very happy one.
His wife was responsible for a great deal, including their finances.
I asked him why he thought his marriage sailed along so
smoothly.
"I'd much rather be the first mate of a floating ship," he replied,
"than the captain of a sinking ship."

☺
~~ When Winston Churchill was a very old man,
he paid one of his infrequent visits to the House of Commons
of which he was still a member.
An MP observing him, remarked, 'After all, they say he's potty.'
Muttered, Churchill, "They say he can't hear either."

☺
~~ The dinner guests were sitting around the table discussing life.
One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problem with education.
He argued: "What's a kid going to learn from someone who
decided his best option in life was to become a teacher?"
He reminded the other dinner guests that it's true what they say
about teachers: "Those who can...do. Those who can't...teach."
To corroborate, he said to another guest: "You're a teacher,
Susan," he said.
"Be honest. What do you make?"
Susan, who had a reputation of honesty and frankness, replied,
"You want to know what I make?"
"I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could."
"I make kids believe in themselves when no one else will."
"I make a C+ feel like a Congressional Medal of Honor and an
A- feel like a slap in the face if the student did not do his or her
very best."
"I make parents tremble in fear when I call home"
"You want to know what I make?
"I make kids wonder."
"I make them question."
"I make them criticize."
"I make them apologize and mean it."
"I make them write."
"I make them read, read, read."
"I make them spell definitely beautiful, definitely beautiful,
and definitely beautiful over and over and over again,
until they will never misspell either one of those words again."
"I make them show all their work in math and hide it all on their
final drafts in English."
"I make them understand that if you have a dream,
then follow it...and if someone ever tries to judge you by
what you make or what you do, you pay them no attention."
"You want to know what I make?! "
"I make a difference."......
"What about you?"

☺
~~ “Johnny, I’ve told you many times not to speak to elder
people but wait until they stop talking.”
Johnny: “I tried that many times, Mama, but they never stop
talking.”

☺
~~ Quasimodo goes to a doctor for his annual checkup.
"I think something is wrong with your back," the doctor says.
"What makes you say that?" Quasimodo asks.
"I don't know," the doctor replies.
"It's just a hunch."

~~ Pete...“Last week a grain of sand got in my wife’s eye.
We had to go to a doctor..... It cost me $200.”
Gus...“That’s nothing.
Last week a fur coat got in my wife’s eye and it cost me $5,000.”
