Tony Stack walked into<br />

Mickey Reardon's Spirit World<br />

and ordered a double whiskey.<br />

He drank it down, slapped a ten<br />

dollar bill on the bar and walked<br />

out. Blackie Vega, (the bar-<br />

tender) picked it up and was<br />

putting it in his pocket when<br />

Mickey Reardon happened to<br />

walk in and exclaimed, "what<br />

are you doing?" Blackie sheep-<br />

ishly explained, "can you beat<br />

that? Tony Stack leaves a ten<br />

dollar tip and FORGETS to pay<br />

for his drink!"<br />

I don't blame you if you don't<br />

believe that I was a Sunday<br />

School teacher for five years.<br />

Some of those kids of long ago<br />

are today, from clam diggers all<br />

the way up to a Bank President.<br />

Here are a few of the many<br />

answers I got to my questions.<br />

Brian McCarthy: "an Atheist is<br />

one who when Southern Metho-<br />

dist plays Notre Dame in foot-<br />

ball doesn't care who wins."<br />

Joe Ravida: "Holy Orders?<br />

Fish on Fridays."<br />

Mark Aloisi: "we can save our<br />

soles if we walk on our heels."<br />

Howie Murphy: "Choir Loft is<br />

the closest some singers will<br />

ever get to Heaven."<br />

Paradise, Frank Gioia said,<br />

"is when your mother-in-law<br />

lives 3000 miles away."<br />

Folks, I could go on and on<br />

but just one more gem. I asked<br />

Jim Arigo "where was Moses<br />

when the lights went OUT?" Jim<br />

answered. "In the DARK, where<br />

years trying to teach us."<br />

I first met Kathy at a<br />

Halloween party. We both won<br />

first prize and neither one of us<br />

was wearing a costume. I asked<br />

her for a kiss and she said, "lips<br />

that touch Wine, will never<br />

touch MINE." "That's Okay," I<br />

replied. "I don't like kissing any-<br />

one with a mustache anyway!"<br />

There are many retirement<br />

homes for former people in vari-<br />

ous professions or occupations<br />

like Letter Carriers who have<br />

Lost their ZIP. Telephone<br />

A travel agent told me about<br />

the beautiful girls in Tahiti. I<br />

asked, "when is it the Best time<br />

to go there?" He smiled and<br />

said, "between 21 and thirty<br />

DREAMBOAT of the WEEK<br />

is Luisa Quaceci of <strong>Wilmington</strong>.<br />

Folks, sometimes being a<br />

Business Person, Boss or<br />

Employer isn't a Bed of Roses<br />

especially if my sister Maureen<br />

works for one of them. Maureen<br />

told Kate, "if it weren't for the<br />

good salary, air condition, swim-<br />

ming pool, free theater tickets<br />

and the four weeks vacation, I<br />

swear, I'd quit this stinking job!"<br />

A business man can't win. Ff<br />

he does something wrong he's<br />

fined. If he does something right<br />

he's Taxed.<br />

to present its fall/winter activi-<br />

ties.<br />

This is an open, no-fee club<br />

whose members enjoy biking,<br />

hiking, skiing and socializing.<br />

Information will also be avail-<br />

able on this winter's ski trip to<br />

St. Anton, Austria, membership<br />

is free.<br />

Missy Palladino waltzed into<br />

the newspaper office with cigars<br />

for all the men and a box of<br />

expensive candy for the women.<br />

"What's the great occasion<br />

Miss?" I asked. She smiled a<br />

mile wide and shouted, "it's a<br />

boy! It's a boy! Six foot tall and<br />

160 pounds. Zsa Zsa Garbor said,<br />

"It's just as easy to fall in love<br />

with a rich man as a poor man."<br />

Folks, if you think nobody<br />

cares if you're alive - try miss-<br />

ing a couple of car payments.<br />

The psychiatrist told Blackie<br />

Vega. "I wish you would stop<br />

smoking!" "Why''" Blackie<br />

asked, "is it bad for me?" "Who<br />

the heck cares!" the head-<br />

shrinker shouted, "Look you<br />

idiot, you just burned a hole in<br />

my brand new couch!"<br />

An elegantly dressed society<br />

matron was just leaving one of<br />

the season's biggest charity<br />

fundraising parties when a pan-<br />

handler asked her. "Lady, can<br />

man?" "You must be out of your<br />

mind!" she shouted. I spent $500<br />

for a ticket and $600 for this<br />

something to stir me up. Did<br />

you put something like that in<br />

my prescription 0 " "No," the doc-<br />

tor replied, "you'll find it when<br />

if a Pinch is necessary."<br />

My Cousin Mario DiMino is<br />
