At her grandparents’ 50th wedding anniversary, Emily was looking through a photo album of their marriage ceremony. “Grandma, so many of these styles have come back over the years,” Emily commented.
Grandma never hesitated, “That’s why I’ve kept Grandpa all this time,” she said. “I know he’ll be back in style again one of these days.”
A motorist, driving by a Texas ranch, hit and killed a calf that was crossing the road. The driver went to the owner of the calf and explained what happened. He then asked what the animal was worth.
“Oh, about $200 today,” replied the rancher. “But in six years, it would have been worth $900. So $900 is what I’m out.”
The motorist sat down and wrote out a check and handed it to the farmer.
“Here,” he said, “is the check for $900. It’s post-dated six years from now.”
Three boys are boasting about their grandfathers. “My grandfather is a great swimmer,” said the first. “He can swim for hours.”
“That’s nothing,” says the second. “My grandpa goes swimming at six in the morning every day and doesn’t get out till six at night.”
“Big deal!” smirks the third boy. “My grandpa started swimming in this pond 20 years ago, and he still hasn’t come out!”
My wife, a real estate agent, wrote an ad for a house she was listing. The house had a second-floor suite that could be accessed using a lift chair that slid along the staircase.
Quickly describing this feature, she inadvertently made it sound even more attractive:
“Mother-in-law suite comes with an electric chair.”
