| Catching the fish |
| Jim had an awful day fishing on
the lake, sitting in the blazing sun all day without catching
a single one. On his way home, he stopped at the supermarket
and ordered four catfish. He told the fish salesman, "Pick
four large ones out and throw them at me, will you?" "Why
do you want me to throw them at you?"
"Because I want to tell my wife that I caught them."
"Okay, but I suggest that you take the orange roughy."
"But why?"
"Because your wife came in earlier today and said that
if you came by, I should tell you to take orange roughy. She
prefers that for supper tonight."

| Man goes to a dentist |
| A man went to his dentist because
he feels something wrong in his mouth. The dentist examines
him and says, "that new upper plate I put in for you six
months ago is eroding. What have you been eating?" The
man replies, "all I can think of is that about four months
ago my wife made some asparagus and put some stuff on it that
was delicious...Hollandaise sauce. I loved it so much I now
put it on everything --- meat, toast, fish, vegetables, everything."
"Well," says the dentist, "that's probably
the problem. Hollandaise sauce is made with lots of lemon
juice, which is highly corrosive. It's eaten away your upper
plate. I'll make you a new plate, and this time use chrome."
"Why chrome?" asks the patient.
To which the dentist replies, "It's simple. Everyone
knows that there's no plate like chrome for the Hollandaise!"

| Big chess tournament |
| The big chess tournament was taking
place at the Plaza in New York. After the first day's competition,
many of the winners were sitting around in the foyer of the
hotel talking about their matches and bragging about their wonderful
play. After a few drinks they started getting louder and louder
until finally, the desk clerk couldn't take any more and kicked
them out.
The next morning the Manager called the clerk into his office
and told him there had been many complaints about his being
so rude to the hotel guests....instead of kicking them out,
he should have just asked them to be less noisy. The clerk
responded, "I'm sorry, but if there's one thing I can't
stand, it's chess nuts boasting in an open foyer." |

| A contest and a bird |
| Very early one morning two birds
are sitting at the side of a large puddle of oil. They see
a worm on the other side. So ... the one flies over and the
other one swims through-which one gets to the worm first?
The one who swam, of course, because "Da oily boid gets
da woim." |

| A punny story |
| There was a man who entered a
local paper's pun contest. He sent in ten different puns,
in the hope that at least one of the puns would win. Unfortunately,
no pun in ten did. |

| The Golf Ball |
| Two friends went out to play
golf and were about to tee off, when one fellow noticed that
his partner had but one golf ball.
"Don't you have at least one other golf ball?",
he asked. The other guy replied that no, he only needed the
one. "Are you sure?", the friend persisted. "What
happens if you lose that ball?" The other guy replied,
"This is a very special golf ball. I won't lose it so
I don't need another one."
Well," the friend asked, "what happens if you miss
your shot and the ball goes in the lake?"
"That's okay," he replied, "this special golf
ball floats. I'll be able to retrieve it."
"Well what happens if you hit it into the trees and it
gets lost among the bushes and shrubs?"
The other guy replied, "That's okay too. You see, this
special golf ball has a homing beacon. I'll be able to get
it back -- no problem."
Exasperated, the friend asks, "Okay. Let's say our game
goes late, the sun goes down, and you hit your ball into a
sand trap. What are you going to do then?"
"No problem," says the other guy, "you see,
this ball is fluourescent. I'll be able to see it in the dark."
Finally satisfied that he needs only the one golf ball, the
friend asks, "Hey, where did you get a golf ball like
that anyway?"
The other guy replies, "I found it."

| A Hiking we will Go |
| Last summer, my husband, took
me camping for the first time. At every opportunity, he passed
along outdoor-survival lore. One day we got lost hiking in
the deep woods. He tried the usual tactics to determine direction
-- moss on the trees (there was none), direction of the sun
(it was an overcast day), etc., etc.
Just as I was beginning to panic, he spotted a small cabin
off in the distance. He pulled out his binoculars, studied
the cabin, turned and led us right back to our camp. "That
was terrific," I said. "How did you do it?"
"Simple," he replied. "In this part of the
country all the TV satellite dishes point south."
