** The prayers
One night, Nathan overhears his son Benny saying his prayers. "God bless mummy and daddy and grandma. Goodbye, grandpa."
Nathan thinks this a bit strange. The next day, the grandfather dies.
About
a month or two later, Nathan hears Benny saying his prayers. Once
again, "God bless mummy. God bless daddy. Goodbye, grandma."
The next day the grandmother dies. Nathan gets more than a little worried about the whole situation.
Two weeks later, Nathan once again overhears Benny’s prayers. "God bless mummy. Goodbye, daddy."
This
nearly gives Nathan a heart attack. He doesn't say anything, but gets
up early next morning to go to work to avoid the traffic. He stays out
all through lunch and dinner and finally, after midnight, leaves his
office. He's still alive! When he gets home, he apologizes to his wife, Sarah.
"I’m sorry, darling. I had a very bad day at the office."
"You think you had a bad day?" Sarah says, "The postman dropped dead on our doorstep this morning."
** Stop Press
Here is a good singles advert which, it is said, appeared in The Atlanta Journal.
SINGLE
BLACK FEMALE 'seeks male companionship, ethnicity unimportant. I'm a
very good looking girl who LOVES to play. I love long walks in the
woods, riding in your pickup truck, hunting, camping and fishing trips,
cosy winter nights lying by the fire. Candlelight dinners will have me
eating out of your hand. Rub me the right way and watch me respond. I'll
be at the front door when you get home from work, wearing only what
nature gave me. Kiss me and I'm yours. Call (404) 875-6420 and ask for
Daisy.'
Over 15,000 men found themselves talking to the Atlanta Humane Society about an 8-week old black Labrador retriever.
** The interview
Harry
went for a job interview. It seemed to go well because before he left,
he was told, "We would like you to work for us. We’ll give you £10 an
hour starting today and in three months time we’ll increase it to £15 an
hour. So when would you like to start?"
Harry replies, "In 3 months from now."
