February 2001 Jokes of
the Week |
Week 1
Mourning
Error
Contributed by Cat Scratch
A new business was opening and
one of the owner's friends wanted to send him flowers for the occasion. They arrived at
the new business site and the owner read the card,.... "Rest in Peace."
The owner was angry and called the florist to complain.
After he had told the florist of the obvious mistake and how angry he was, the florist
replied, "Sir, I'm really sorry for the mistake, but rather than getting angry, you
should imagine this: somewhere, there is a funeral taking place today, and they have
flowers with a note saying,... 'Congratulations on your new location!'"

Lady Golfer

I was at the golf store
comparing different kinds of golf balls. I was unhappy with the women's type I had been
using. After browsing for several minutes, I was approached by one of the good-looking
gentlemen who works at the store. He asked if he could help me.
Without thinking, I looked at him and said, "I think I like playing with men's
balls."

her."
Typo 3
A man wanted to celebrate his wife's Birthday by throwing a party. So he ordered a
birthday cake. The salesman asked him what message he wanted put on the cake.
He thought for a moment and said "put 'you are getting older but you are getting
better".
The salesman asked "how do you want me to put it?" The man said ' Well... put
"You are getting older" at the top and "but you are getting better" at
the bottom.'
When the cake was unveiled at the party all the guests were agast at the message on the
cake. It read : "You are getting older at the top, but you are getting better at the
bottom"

The
Perfect Husband
Contributed by BV
There are several men sitting around in the locker
room of a private club after exercising. Suddenly a cell phone on one of the benches
rings.
One of the men picks it up, and the following
conversation ensues:
"Hello?"
"Honey, it's me. Are you at the club?"
"Yes."
"Great! I am at the mall two blocks from
where you are. I just saw a beautiful mink coat. It's absolutely gorgeous!! Can I buy
it?"
"What's the price?"
"Only $1,500.00."
"Well, OK, go ahead and get it, if you like
it that much..."
"Ahhh, and I also stopped by the Porsche
dealership and saw the 2001 models. I saw one I really liked. I spoke with the salesman,
and he gave me a really good price... and since we need to trade-in the BMW that we bought
last year..."
"What price did he quote you?"
"Only $65,000..."
"OK, but for that price I want it with all
the options."
"Great! But before we hang up, something
else..."
"What?"
"It might look like a lot, but I was
reconciling your bank account and... I stopped by the real estate agent this morning and
saw the house we had looked at last year. It's on sale!! Remember? The one with a
pool, English Garden, acre of park area, beachfront property..."
"How much are they asking?"
"Only $450,000 - a magnificent price...and I
see that we have that much in the bank to cover..."
"Well, then go ahead and buy it, but just bid
$420,000. OK?"
"OK, sweetie...Thanks! I'll see you later!! I
love you!!!"
"Bye...I do too..."
The man hangs up, closes the phone's flap, and
raises his hand while holding the phone and asks to all those present:
"Does anyone know who this phone belongs
to?" |
