Friday's Funnies

 Christmas Knock, Knock Jokes


Knock, knock! Who's there? Noah. Noah who? Noah good Christmas joke?

Knock, knock. Who's there? Dewey. Dewey who? Dewey know how long it is until Santa gets here?

 

Mall Santa Claus


The Santa Claus at the mall was very surprised when a young lady about twenty years old walked up and sat on his lap.  Santa doesn't usually take requests from adults, but she smiled very nicely at him, so he said, "OK, you can ask for something, but it has to be for someone other than yourself. What do you want for Christmas?"  "Something for my mother," said the young lady.  "Something for your mother? Well, that's very thoughtful of you," smiled Santa. "What do you want me to bring her? " Without blinking she replied, "A son-in-law!"


If …

 

If you see a fat man who's jolly and cute,
Wearing a beard and a red flannel suit,

And if he is chuckling and laughing away,
While flying around in a miniature sleigh

With eight tiny reindeer to pull him along,
then let's face it...

Your eggnog's too strong!

Buying Christmas Gifts For Men

 

Buying gifts for men on Christmas is not nearly as complicated as it is for women. Follow these rules and you should have no problems.

 

Rule #1:

When in doubt - buy him a cordless drill. It does not matter if he already has one. I have a friend who owns 17 and he has yet to complain. As a man, you can never have too many cordless drills. No one knows why.

 

Rule #2:

If you cannot afford a cordless drill, buy him anything with the word ratchet or socket in it. Men love saying those two words. "Hey George, can I borrow your ratchet?" "OK. By-the-way, are you through with my 3/8-inch socket yet?" Again, no one knows why.

 

Rule #3:

If you are really, really broke, buy him anything for his car, a 99 cent ice scraper, a small bottle of deicer or something to hang from his rear view mirror. Men love gifts for their cars. No one knows why.

 

Rule #4:

You can buy men new remote controls to replace the ones they have worn out. If you have a lot of money buy your man a big-screen TV with the little picture in the corner. Watch him go wild as he flips, and flips, and flips.

 

Rule #5:

Buy men label makers. Almost as good as cordless drills. Within a couple of weeks there will be labels absolutely everywhere. "Socks. Shorts. Cups. saucers. Door. Lock. Sink." You get the idea. No one knows why. (ABSOLUTELY TRUE!!)

 

Rule #6:

Never buy a man anything that says "some assembly required" on the box. It will ruin his Special Day and he will always have parts left over. No one knows why.

 

Rule #7:

Good places to shop for men include Northwest Iron Works, Parr Lumber, Home Depot, John Deere, Valley RV Center, and Les Schwab Tire. (NAPA Auto Parts and Sears Clearance Centers are also excellent men's stores.) It doesn't matter if he doesn't know what it is. ("From NAPA Auto, eh? Must be something I need. Hey! Isn't this a starter for a '68 Ford Fairlane? Wow! thanks.")

 

Rule #8:

Men enjoy danger. That's why they never cook - but they will barbecue. (No one knows why) Get him a monster barbecue with a 100-pound propane tank. Tell him the gas line leaks. "Oh the thrill! The challenge! Who wants a hamburger?"

 

Rule #9:

Tickets to a Cowboys game are a smart gift. However, he will not appreciate tickets to "A Retrospective of 19th Century Quilts." Everyone knows why.

 

Rule #10:

Men love chain saws. Never, ever, buy a man you love a chain saw. If you don't know why - please refer to Rule #7 and what happens when he gets a label maker.

 

Rule #11:

It's hard to beat a really good wheelbarrow or an aluminum extension ladder. Never buy a real man a stepladder. It must be an extension ladder. No one knows why.

 

Rule #12:

Rope. Men love rope. It takes us back to our cowboy origins, or at least The Boy Scouts. Nothing says love like a hundred feet of 3/8" manila rope. No one knows why.

 

Dad Joke

 

How much does Santa pay for parking?  Nothing, it’s on the house.

 

Today’s Thought

 

Bought a pack of animal crackers, but I had to take them back because the seal was broken...
