Friday's Funnies

Forecast: Today's weather?  Room temperature.

Work On Weekends
Boss - Do you think you can come in on Saturday? I know you enjoy your weekends, but I need you here.
Me - Yeah, no problem. I'll probably be late though as public transport on weekends is slow.
Boss - What time will you get here?
Me - Monday.

Caution

During these uncertain times, the only thing that could be worse is if the murder hornets are attracted to hand sanitizer.

Military Exercises

During a practical exercise at a military police base, the instructor was giving the class instruction in unarmed self-defense.  After he presented a number of different situations in which they might find themselves, he asked a student, "What steps would you take if someone were coming at you with a big, sharp knife?"  The student replied, "Big ones."

One-Dollar-Bill

A one-dollar bill met a twenty-dollar bill and said, "Hey, where have you been? I haven't seen you around here much."  The twenty answered, "I've been hanging out at the casinos, went on a cruise and did the rounds on the ship, back to the United States for a while, went to a couple of baseball games, to the mall, that kind of stuff.  How about you?"  The one-dollar bill said, "You know, same old stuff - church, church, church."

Actual Complaints Received By A Resort Chain:

~ "On my holiday to India, I was disgusted to find that almost every restaurant served curry. I don't like spicy food."
~ "We booked an excursion to a water park but no one told us we had to bring our own swimsuits and towels. We assumed it would be included in the price"
~ "The beach was too sandy. We had to clean everything when we returned to our room."
~ "No one told us there would be fish in the water. The children were scared."
~ "It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England . It took the Americans only three hours to get home. This seems unfair."
~ "We had to line up outside to catch the boat and there was no air-conditioning."
~ "I was bitten by a mosquito. The brochure did not mention mosquitoes."
~ "My sister woke up late and didn't get a free continental breakfast."

Youngest In School

A friend of mine has three boys, the youngest of whom, Gregory, had just started school.  A teacher commented to Gregory that she couldn't believe he was already in first grade and asked what his mother did all day now that the three boys were in school.  "Cartwheels," Gregory answered.

Today’s Thought

While social distancing, my wife and I went for a walk and scored a couple packages of toilet paper. Moral of the story? Don't leave your garage doors open.
