  • The 12-Inch Pianist and the Million Bucks

    A guy walks into a bar carrying a briefcase and an old brass lamp.

    He sits down and sets both on the bar.

    The bartender pours him a drink and asks, “What’s in the briefcase?”

    The man opens it to reveal a tiny man sitting at a piano, playing beautifully.

    “Where on earth did you get that?” the bartender asks.

    The man points to the lamp. “A genie. He granted me a wish.”

    “No way,” says the bartender. “Can I try?”

    “Be my guest.”

    The bartender rubs the lamp, and out pops a genie.

    “What is your wish?” asks the genie.

    The bartender thinks for a moment and says, “I want a million bucks!”

    The genie claps his hands.

    Instantly, the bar is filled with a million ducks.

    Ducks are everywhere. On the tables, behind the bar, hanging from the light fixtures.

    The bartender stares in disbelief.

    “What’s wrong with this genie?” he shouts. “He must be hard of hearing!”

    The man takes a sip of his drink and says, “You think? Do you really believe I wished for a 12-inch pianist?”

  • I Wish I Could Be You

    I met a genie who offered me one wish.

    I said, “I wish I could be you.”

    The genie replied,

    “Weurd wush… but U wull grant ut.”

  • Albert and the Divorce Court

    Albert wanted to divorce his wife, so they went to court.

    Judge: “Are you sure you still want to divorce your wife?”

    Albert: “Yes, Your Honor. I’m serious.”

    Judge: “Don’t you regret it?”

    Albert: “How could I not? Why should I keep a wife who goes out every night to cafés, bars, and clubs?”

    Judge: “Does your wife drink alcohol?”

    Albert: “Uh… no, sir.”

    Judge: “Does she like dancing and partying?”

    Albert: “Not really, sir.”

    Judge: “Then what does she do every night in those places?”

    Albert: “She’s looking for me, sir.”

  • The Adult Toy Shop and the Checkered Thermos

    The owner of an adult toy shop was training his new employee on the rules, how things worked, and the price list of their products.

    “The only items without price tags are the dildos kept behind the cashier counter.

    The white ones are $10, and the black ones are $25.

    Everything else in the store already has the price marked on it.

    Now, I’m heading out for a bit to take care of something important. I’ll be back in about an hour or two.”

    Business went smoothly for an hour, until finally a customer asked about the items kept behind the counter.

    “How much are those toys?”

    “The white ones are $10, and the black ones are $25.”

    “Oh, those are nice! How much is that one with the checkered pattern?”

    Thinking quickly on his feet, the employee replied, “That one is $200.”

    “SOLD! I’ll take it!”

    An hour later, the owner returned and asked how business had been while he was gone.

    “It was booming, Boss! I managed to sell five of the white ones and ten of the black ones. And I also got $200 for that checkered thermos of yours you had sitting back there!”

  • Mrs Fire

    I really miss Robin Williams. He was a legend!

    Without a doubt my favorite movie of his was “Mrs Fire.”

  • Spell Way

    A husband got home early from work. He grabbed a beer from the fridge, sat in his favorite recliner and put the TV on a game!

    His wife got home late from work! She immediately started dinner, the laundry and vacuuming!

    As she walked by, her husband grabbed her hand and asked, “What are the chances of me getting laid tonight?”

    She said, “Spell way!”

    He replied, “W-A-Y!”

    She said, “You forgot the F.”

    He said, “There is no F in way!”

    His wife replied, “Exactly!”

  • Being a Literalist

    Being a literalist can sometimes be very helpful.

    I can always respond to “Do these jeans make my ass look fat?” with a confident and honest “No.”

    But I dread the day when she rephrases it as “Does my ass look fat in these jeans?”

  • The Barber and the Mother-in-Law

    A man gets a haircut, and the barber keeps asking, “So… how’s your mother-in-law these days?”

    The man replies, “She’s fine.”

    A few minutes later, the barber asks again, “And your mother-in-law? How’s she doing?”

    The man starts getting irritated.

    “I just told you she’s fine! Why do you keep asking about her?”

    The barber grins and says, “Oh, it’s not because I care. Every time I mention your mother-in-law, your hair stands straight up, and that makes it much easier for me to cut.”

  • The Preacher and Mrs O’Malley

    “Mrs O’Malley, good morning,” greeted the preacher.

    “Good morning, Pastor,” she replied.

    “Last week, your husband walked out during the sermon. I hope nothing too serious is the matter?”

    “Nothing too serious, just that he has a tendency for sleepwalking.”

  • The Dog-Friendly Hotel

    A man wrote a letter to a small hotel in a Midwest town he planned to visit on his vacation. He wrote, “I would very much like to bring my dog with me. He is well groomed and very well behaved. Would you be willing to permit me to keep him in my room with me at night?”

    An immediate reply came from the hotel owner, who said, “I’ve been operating this hotel for many years. In all that time, I’ve never had a dog steal towels, bedclothes, silverware, or pictures off the walls. I’ve never had to evict a dog in the middle of the night for being drunk and disorderly. And I’ve never had a dog run out on a hotel bill. Yes, indeed, your dog is welcome at my hotel. And if your dog will vouch for you, you’re welcome to stay here too.”
