He asked his father, who was a minister and a bit of a twit,
if they could discuss the use of the car.
His father took him to his study and said to him,
"I'll make a deal with you. You bring your grades up,
study your bible a little and get your hair cut, and we'll
talk about it."
After about a month the boy came back and again asked his
father if they could discuss use of the car.
They again went to the father's study where his father said,
"Son, I've been real proud of you. You have brought your
grades up, you've studied your bible diligently, but you
didn't get your hair cut!"
The young man waited a moment and replied,
"You know Dad, I've been thinking about that.
Samson had long hair, Moses had long hair, Noah had long hair,
and even Jesus had long hair...."
To which his father replied,
"Yes, and they walked everywhere they went!"

him a question.

a bus, went up on the footpath, and stopped centimeters
from a shop window.

driver said,
"Look mate, don't ever do that again. You scared the
daylights out of me!"
The passenger apologized and said, "I didn't realize that
a little tap would scare you so much."
The driver replied, "Sorry, it's not really your fault.
Today is my first day as a cab driver. I've been driving
a funeral van for the last 25 years!

the bartender:
"Drinks for all on me including you, bartender."
So the bartender follows the mans orders and says:
"That will be $36.50 please."
The drunk says he has no money so the bartender slaps him
around and throws him out.
The next night the same drunk comes in again and orders a
drink for everyone in the bar including the bartender.

drunk says he has no money. So the bartender slaps him
around and throws him out.
On the third night he comes in, the drunk orders drinks
for all except the bartender.
"What, no drink for me?" replies the bartender. "Oh, no.
You get violent when you drink".
A new young blonde bride calls her mother in tears.
She sobs, "Robert doesn't appreciate what I do for him!"
"Now, now," her mother comforted,
"I am sure it was all just a misunderstanding."
"No, mother," the young woman laments.
"I bought a frozen turkey loaf and he yelled at me about
the price."
"Well, that is being miserly," the mother agreed,
"Those turkey rolls are only a few dollars."

it was the airplane ticket."

for?"
"Well mother, when I went to fix it,
I looked at the directions on the back and it said,
'PREPARE FROM A FROZEN STATE,' so I flew to Alaska."

A one dollar bill met a twenty dollar bill and said,

Two guys, one old and one young, are pushing their carts
around the DIY Store when they collide.
"Sorry about that" says the old guy to the young guy,
"I'm looking for my wife, and I guess I wasn't paying
attention to where I was going."
The young guy says: "That's OK. It's a coincidence,
but I'm looking for my wife, too. I can't find her and
I'm getting a little desperate."
The old guy says: "Well, maybe we can help each other.
What does your wife look like?
The young guy says: "Well, she is 27 years old, tall,
with red hair, blue eyes, long legs, big boobs, and
she's wearing a skimpy halter top and tight white shorts.
What does your wife look like?"
The old guy says:
"Doesn't matter - let's look for yours."
