SHARE A GOOD JOKE

Earlier in the week, I posted about Jimmy Valvano’s life lessons – Laugh, Think and Cry.  My dad has the LAUGH part down!  When I was growing up, he would tell jokes all of the time and usually ended with the line “Ahhh…I got a million of ‘em.”  When he leaves a bar, you can often hear him tell the bartender to “Keep a loose stool.”  One thing I love about my dad is how much he loves life.

Today he sent me a joke that I thought I would share with all of you.  I love Little Johnny jokes and this one really cracked me up!

Little Johnny’s neighbor had a baby.  Unfortunately, the baby was born without ears.  When mother and the new baby came home from the hospital, Johnny’s family was invited over for a visit.  Before they left their house, Little Johnny’s dad had a talk with him and explained that the baby was born without ears.  His dad also told him that if he so much mentioned anything about the baby’s missing ears, or even said the word ‘ears’, he would get the smacking of his life when they came back home.  Little Johnny told his dad he understood completely.  When Johnny looked in the crib he said, “What a beautiful baby.”  The mother said, “Why, THANK YOU, Johnny!”  Johnny said, “He has beautiful little feet, beautiful little hands, a cute little nose and really beautiful eyes.  Can he see alright?”  “Yes,” replied the mother. “We are so thankful. The doctor said he has 20/20 vision.”  “That’s great,” Little Johnny replied, “because he’d be ‘F-ed’ if he needed glasses!”

I hope that made you smile.  Enjoy the beautiful day and be happy you have ears!
