    My favorite all time joke that I have told literally hundreds of times and still makes me laugh even when I tell it is my version of The Pig With the Wooden Leg, which I call “Peggy, the Peg-legged Pig.

    I told it enough times at work to our customers, even with the suggestion or direction of the Dealer, Sales Manager, and other salesmen, that a friend brought in a stuffed pig. Then another friend made a wooden leg on his home lathe. I sat it on my desk and if some asked why that pig had a wooden leg, I was on top of the world, because I would tell you!

    1. I never get tired of exasperating my daughter as my grandfather used to exasperated me. To the daily whining request: “Daddy, I’m thirsty….” (drawn out and whiny) my reply: “I’m Friday…”

    You also gotta hate (or love) all the standbys when you get a hair cut or grow out facial hair.

    “You get your ears lowered?”
    “You get into a fight with a lawnmower?”
    “You need to stand closer to your razor.”

Theyre twins…”– “Hold on!” said the census taker, “Did you get twins every time?” The woman looked at him as if he was crazy and answered, “Heck no, there were hundreds of times we didn’t get nothin’!”

    Richard says:

    Following the death of Quasimodo, the Bishop of the Cathedral Church of Notre Dame sent word throughout the streets of Paris that a new bellringer would need to be appointed. The Bishop decided that he would himself conduct the interviews, and went up into the belfry to interview the candidates. After observing several applicants demonstrate their skills, he decided to call it a day, when an armless man approached him announcing that he was there to apply for the post. The Bishop declared,

    ” My Son, you have no arms!”

    ” No matter” replied the man. “I play the bells with my face”.

    He then proceeded to strike the bells with his face, producing the most beautiful melody on the carillon. The Bishop was astonished, believing he had indeed found a suitable replacement for Quasimodo. But in rushing forward to strike a bell, the armless man tripped, and plunged headlong out of the belfry to his death in the street below. The Bishop, stunned rushed to his side. When he reached the street, a crowd had gathered around the fallen figure, drawn by the beauty of the music they had heard a moment before. As they parted in silence to allow the Bishop through, one in the crowd asked

    ” Bishop, who was this man?”

    ” I don’t know his name” replied the Bishop sadly,

    ” But his face sure rings a bell.”

    SO THE NEXT DAY…

    …despite the sadness that weighed heavily on his heart, the Bishop continued his interviews for a bell ringer. The first man to approach addressed him, “Your Grace, I am the twin brother of the poor armless man who fell to his death from this belfry yesterday. I pray that you will allow me to play a dirge to honour my dear brother.” The Bishop agreed but asked “You don’t play with your face, do you?” “No, no, replied the man. I play in the traditional way”. With this he proceeded to play a deeply moving dirge, but as he finished he groaned, clutched at his chest, collapsed, and died on the spot. Two monks, hearing the cries of grief from the Bishop at the tragedy, rushed up the stairs……

    “What has happened? Who is this man? ” they cried.

    ” I don’t know his name” exclaimed the distraught Bishop, “but he’s a dead ringer for his brother.”

    A candidate for church membership was asked, “What part of the Bible do you like best?” He said: “I like the New Testament best. Then he was asked, “What Book in the New Testament is your favorite?” He answered, the Book of the Parables, Sir.” They then asked him to relate one of the parables to the membership committee. And a bit uncertain, he began…

    “Once upon a time a man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves; and the thorns grew up and choked the man. And he went on and met the Queen of Sheba, and she gave that man, Sir, a thousand talents of silver, and a hundred changes of raiment. And he got in his chariot and drove furiously, and as he was driving along under a big tree, his hair got caught in a limb and left him hanging here! And he hung there many days and many nights. The ravens brought him food to eat and water to drink. And one night while he was hanging there asleep, his wife Delilah came along and cut off his hair, and he fell on stoney ground. And it begin to rain, and rained forty days and forty nights. And he hid himself in a cave. Later he went on and met a man who said, “Come in and take supper with me.” But he said, “I can’t come in, for I have married a wife.” And the man went out into the highways and hedges and compelled him to come in! He then came to Jerusalem, and saw Queen Jezebel sitting high and lifted up in a window of the wall. When she saw him she laughed, and he said, “Throw her down out of there,” and they threw her down. And he said “Throw her down again,” and they threw her down seventy-times-seven. And the fragments which they picked up filled twelve baskets full! NOW, whose wife will she be in the day of the Judgment?” The membership committee agreed that this was indeed a knowledgeable candidate!
