Three retirees, each with a hearing loss, were playing golf one fine March day....
One remarked, "Windy, isn't it?"
"No," the second man replied, "It's Thursday..."
And the third man chimed in, "So am I. Let's have a beer."

An old lady is sitting with her doctor:

“I’ve been having the most terrible flatulence, doctor. I just can’t stop passing gas. Luckily, they’re silent and they don’t smell at all. Why, you couldn’t tell but I’ve farted at least five or six times in the few minutes I’ve been here with you.”

The doctor pulled out his prescription pad and began writing.

“Are these pills to help with my stomach?”

The doctor replied, “no – your sense of smell.”

They say if you paint an elephant’s toenails red, you won’t see it in a strawberry patch
You are probably thinking, “That’s impossible. Elephants are huge!”
Have you ever seen an elephant in a strawberry patch?
No?
Then it obviously works!

Just arrived home only to find that the kids had been on eBay all day long.

If this keeps up I may have to lower the price. %)

I made a playlist for hiking. It has music from Peanuts, The Cranberries, and Eminem.


I call it my trail mix.

My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned...couldn't concentrate.
Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the ax.
After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited for it, mainly because it was a sew-sew job.
Next I tried working in a muffler factory, but that was too exhausting.
Then I tried to be a chef. I figured it would add a little spice to my life, but I just didn't have the thyme.
I attempted to be a deli worker, but any way I sliced it, I couldn't cut the mustard.
My best job was being a musician, but eventually I found I wasn't noteworthy.
I studied a long time to become a doctor, but I didn't have any patience.
Next was a job in a shoe factory. I tried, but I just didn't fit in.
I became a professional fisherman, but discovered that I couldn't live on my net income.
I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining.
So then I got a job in a workout center, but they said I wasn't fit for the job.
After many years of trying to find steady work, I finally got a job as a historian, but there was no future in it.
My last job was working at Starbucks, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind.
SO I RETIRED, AND FOUND THAT I AM PERFECT FOR THE JOB

I understand how you feel, just because kids are deductible doesn’t mean they aren’t taxing.

From Backwoods Home:

Why is it called "canning" if it's storing things in glass containers and not cans?
Because renaming it at this point would be jarring.

Why does a skunk bother organizing his pantry?
He likes keeping everything in odor.

Upon noticing moths in our pantry, my dad, mom and I try to figure out what food they have gotten into.

Mom: Do you think they got into the life cereal?

Dad: I really hope not. If they did that would be the end of my life.

I wrote down some stuff I needed at the grocery store. When I got there, I realized I forgot the note at home. I wandered around the store feeling listless the whole time.

What did the cannibal say when he met a fully armored knight?
Argh... Canned food again?

This morning at about 7:45, I was in a long line at a grocery store that opens at 8:00 for senior citizens only.

A young man came from the parking lot and tried to cut in at the front of the line, but an old lady beat him back into the parking lot with her cane.

He returned and tried to cut in again but an old man punched him in the gut, then kicked him to the ground and rolled him away.

As he approached the line for the third time he said, "Look, if you don't let me unlock the darn door you're never going to get in there!”

It is Spring.
Young couples return from the woods with stars in their eyes and love in their hearts.

A guy goes to the bar on a cruise ship and orders a Scotch with two drops of water.
As the bartender gives him the drink he says, “I’m on this cruise to celebrate my 80th birthday and it’s today…”
The bartender says, “Well, since it’s your birthday, I’ll buy you a drink. In fact, this one is on me.”

As the guy finishes her drink, the man to his right says, “I would like to buy you a drink, too.”
The old guy says, “Thank you, Bartender, I want a Scotch with two drops of water.”
“Coming up,” says the bartender.

As he finishes that drink, the man to his left says, “I would like to buy you one, too.”
The old guy says, “Thank you.

Bartender, I want another Scotch with two drops of water.”
“Coming right up,” the bartender says.
As he gives him the drink, he says, "Sir, I’m dying of curiosity, why the Scotch with only two drops of water?”

The old guy replies, “Sonny, when you’re my age, you’ve learned how to hold your liquor.
Holding your water, however, is a whole other issue.”

A linguistics professor was lecturing to his class one day.
"In English," he said, "A double negative forms a positive. In some languages, though, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative. However, there is no language wherein a double positive can form a negative."
A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."

The elderly congregation was perplexed when the preacher pulled out a pocket watch and threw it to the end of the room. It slammed into the wall and fell to floor in pieces, but the watch kept ticking.

"What does this demonstration tell you about life?" The preacher challenged the congregation.

A man in the back slowly stood up, leaning on his cane. He stared down at the ticking clock.

"Well, preacher, I suspect this watch shows that time flies and stops for no one."

After trick-or-treating, a teen takes a shortcut home through the cemetery. Halfway across, he’s startled by a tapping noise coming from the misty shadows. Trembling with fear, he spots an old man with a hammer and chisel, chipping away at a headstone. “I thought you were a ghost,” says the relieved teen. “What are you doing working so late?”

“Oh, those idiots,” grumbles the old man. “They misspelled my name!”

Two men are playing golf when one realizes he's left his jacket at the last tee.
He goes back to get it, stops halfway, and turns back.
"What's up?" asks his mate.
"Well, you see those two women at the tee?  One's my wife and she is playing with my mistress."
His mate laughs and says, "No worries, I'll go get it for you."
He stops halfway, comes back, looks at his mate and says, "Small world."
 
What's that smell? I think this tiny ad may have stepped in something.
