For a quick laugh: My nephew Nickolas was in Kindergardin. Nickolas had not yet learned to tie his shoes. One day the teacher called Nickolas up to her and asked him why he could not tie his shoes. His reply was, Can you fly an airplane?
Needless to say my sister was called to school the next day for a parent teacher conference.
Whoa!

That one’s actually a smart joke
Our seven year old great grandson, Kolten, is his dad Kent’s shadow. Kent owns a landscape business and the other day while in the equipment garage, one of the workers asked Kent why he had not received a raise. Kolten, who was tying his shoe at the time, looked up at the young man and said, “If you’d get to work on time and not an hour late, you’d get a raise.” Out of the mouths of babes.
Having a 16 teen driver is enough to put any parent on Valium. Being a parent of two teenagers means no sleep for the duration of high school. Well do I have a story for you of my 16 son and a black V4 Mustang? I felt like my home had turned into swinging doors, like the ones at the circus, you go in and out but one really doesn’t know if you are out or in. He would start to go in a door and I was ready to go out another, circling around the home, sneaking to reach that elusive black Mustang. What I had in my hands was a night’s sleep, steering wheel locking device; this is the only thing that would stop that black Mustang.
Frustrated about the increase on my rarely used cellphone, I called to inquire about all the suddenly significantly increased surcharges. I was told by customer service ” to contact my local office of congress to complain.” Later I received a
call in response to my letter of inquiry. They explained that it was probably increased because this is a “new physical year.”
I am the author of 53 published books of humor. With sales over 12,000,000 copies The New York Times calls me “America’s Best-Selling Humorist.”
How may I submit one of my books, “Treasury of Laughter”
which contains over 1000 jokes, one liners and funny stories for you to have a great selection to choose from?
Please advise. Thank you!
