No 4th of July?
Someone told me they don't have the 4th of July in other
countries. Seems strange to skip from the 3rd to the 5th, but whatever.
Patriotism
The Fourth of July was coming up, and the nursery school teacher
took the opportunity to tell her class about patriotism. "We live in a
great country," she said. "One of the things we should be happy is
that, in this country, we are all free."
One little boy came walking up to her from the back of the room. He
stood with his hands on his hips and said, "I'm not free. I'm four."
Independence
Brenda had been stressing the importance of independence
to her granddaughter, Shila, 7, while they were waiting for the 4th of July
fireworks to begin. She felt she had made her point until Shila thoughtfully
said, "You know Nana, you can live without your independence. Amber's
doctor took out her independence and she's still living."
On The Clock
A man phones a lawyer and asks, "How much would you charge for just answering three simple questions?" The lawyer replies, "A thousand dollars." "A thousand dollars!" exclaims the man. "That's very expensive, isn't it?" "It certainly is," says the lawyer. "Now, what's your third question?"

Uber Driver
A salesclerk asked his boss how to handle people who complained about the current prices compared to the lower prices "in the good old days." His response: "Just act surprised and tell them you didn't think they were old enough to remember them."
High Tech Swatter
A piano tuner was at a customer's house recently when he asked if he could borrow a newspaper. "This is the 21st century," she said. "I don't waste money on newspapers. Here, use my iPad." As the piano tuner later recalled, "I can tell you this. That fly never knew what hit him."
Middle Age
Middle age is just walking around all day muttering things like...
- "What was I going to
say?"
- "What did I come in here
for?"
- "Did I already take my
pill?"
- "How did I get this
bruise?"
- "Why am I sore?"
- "Where did I leave my
phone?"
- "Who moved my water
glass?"
- "Did the dryer shrink these
pants?"
- "That's it. Diet starts
tomorrow."
Number of States
Old Mr. Smith, the school's principal, made it a practice to visit
the classrooms one day a week. He walked
into the 4th grade class, where the children were studying the states, and
asked them how many states they could name. They came up with about 40 names.
Mr. Smith jokingly told them that in his day students knew the names of all the
states. Little Johnny raised his hand
and said, "Yes sir, but in those days there were only 13 states."
