Submitted by Tyla Davis

Steve and his wife,

Lori, were out to dinner

at Mac’s Grill one

evening.

The waitress came

by to take their order.

Steve ordered the Mini

Mac steak dinner.

“How would you like

your steak cooked,”

asked the waitress.

“The same as winning

an argument with my

wife,” Steve replied.

“Ahh, yes. Rare it is.”

School Days

Submitted by Steve Simard

Little Jimbo came

running into the house

after school one day,

shouting, “Mommy!

Mommy! I got 100 in

school today!”

“That’s great, son!” said

his mom. “Come here

in the living room and

tell me all about it.”

Little Jimbo said, “Well,

I got 50 in spelling,

30 in math and 20 in

science!”

Sea

Counseling

Submitted by Jimbo

One afternoon The

Sea rolled into the

office of Dr. Alfred

Werner, clinical psychologist.

The doctor smiled; he

hadn’t seen his old

friend in ages. “Well,

well! Long time no sea!

How are you doing?”

“Swell,” replied the

Sea saltily.

“Then what, Pacifically,

is the problem?”

“Well,” the Sea

swished sadly, “I’m

getting tired of just

going in and out every

day, in and out, in and

out, in and...”

Bar Houdini

Submitted by Jimbo

A deputy police officer

responded to a report

of a bar room

disturbance.

Fun fact, I’ve never seen anyone smiling while jogging.

Out ‘n About in Oxford Hills for the Christmas Parade

The “disturbance”

turned out to be well

over six feet tall and

weighed almost 300

pounds. What’s more,

he boasted that he

could whip the deputy

and the “Heavy Weight

Boxing Champion of

the World.”

The policeman said,

“I’ll bet that you’re also

an escape artist too,

probably better than

Houdini.”

The giant nodded.

“If I had some chains,”

the deputy continued,

“you could show us

how strong you really

are. But all I’ve got is a

set of handcuffs. Why

don’t you see just how

quickly you can break

out of them?”

Once in the cuffs, the

man puffed, pulled and

jerked for four minutes.

“I can’t get out of

these,” the giant

growled.

“Are you sure?” the

deputy asked.

The fellow tried again.

“Nope,” he replied. “I

can’t do it.”

“In that case,” said the

deputy, “you’re under

arrest.”

Deserted

Island

Submitted by Jimbo

Abe and Esther are

flying to Australia for

a two week vacation

to celebrate their 50th

wedding anniversary.

Suddenly, over the

public address system,

the Captain announces,

“Ladies and

Gentlemen, I am afraid

I have some very bad

news; our engines are

about to fail and we

will have to attempt

an emergency landing.

Luckily, I see an

uncharted island below

us and we should be

able to land on the

beach.”

Thanks to the skill of

the flight crew, the

plane lands safely

on the island. The

pilot then announces,

“Odds are that we may

never be rescued and

will have to live on the

island for the rest of

our lives.”

An hour later Abe turns

to his wife and asks,

“Esther, did we pay our

$5,000 PBS pledge

check yet?”

“No, sweetheart,” she

responds.

Abe, still shaken from

the crash landing,

then asks, “Esther, did

we pay our American

Express card yet?”

“Oh, no! I’m sorry. I forgot

to send the check,”

she says.

Profanity sucks.


“One last thing Esther,

did you remember to

send checks for the

Visa and MasterCard

this month?” he asks.

“Oh, forgive me, Abe,”

begged Esther. “I didn’t

send those either.”

Abe grabs her and

gives her the biggest

kiss in 50 years.

Esther pulls away and

asks him, “What was

that for?”

Abe answers, “They’ll

find us now! We’ll be

saved!”

Early

Submitted by Jimbo

What is the deal with

‘The early bird gets

the worm?’ He gets up

early, and all he gets

is a worm? It says ‘the

worm,’ which means

one single worm. That

doesn’t seem very fair,

for a bird that goes

through the trouble of

getting up early.

Myself, I would rather

sleep late and get

the ‘worm and grub’

brunch special at the

local diner. I can’t

imagine that an early

5:00 AM worm is going

to taste that much better

than a plate of later

11:00 AM worms.

And, speaking of

which, what’s the deal

with the early worm?

He gets up early, to

get a start on the day,

because he has loads

of work to do, and he

gets eaten by a bird!

Where is the moral

of the story, when

the lazy worms don’t

get eaten? Isn’t that

hypocritical? Seems to

me that all the smart

worms either work

nights, or sleep late

and get up after lunch.

Isn’t that sending the

wrong message to our

kids?

Immortal

Dolphins

Submitted by Tyla Davis

There was this guy

who found an ancient

book. In that book he

read that dolphins live

forever if you feed

them the meat of an

eagle.

Some time later he

came across a very

sick eagle and thought:

It’s gonna die soon

anyway, I might as well

take it to the dolphins

at the local zoo to see

if what’s in the book is

actually true.

At night he climbed

over a wall to get into

the zoo – and found

himself right in the lion

enclosure! He managed

to escape the

lions by jumping over

them and then climbing

up a tree.

He was later arrested

and charged with

smuggling ill eagle

goods over state lions

for immortal porpoises.

The easiest way to get straight A’s is to use a ruler.

Career Training

Submitted by Jimbo

The proprietor of a

small village drugstore

was called out

one sleepy summer

morning, leaving the

establishment temporarily

under the sole

management of a very

young, and very new

clerk.

“Just answer the phone

if it rings, Jim,” instructed

the proprietor.

The phone rang.

“Hello,” said the clerk.

“Do you have streptomycin

and aureomycin?”

asked a voice at

the other end.

The clerk scratched

his head, then said,

“Ma’am, when I said

‘Hello’ I told you everything

I know!”

People think “icy” is the easiest word to spell. I see why!

Happy New Year

“May I speak to your

asked, “Is there anyone

The boy replied, “My

on the phone.

I absolutely refuse to be assertive!

Then the boy returned

and said, “Hello?”

The salesman responded,

“It’s you

again? Weren’t you

going to get your

sister?”

To which the boy

replied, “I tried, but I

can’t get her out of the

playpen!”

My wife just stopped

and said, “You weren’t

you?”

I thought... “That’s a

“It’s not often in life you get the opportunity to take all of your

passions and meld them into one career,” says Davis. “I am

extremely lucky to have this opportunity a second time. Sometimes

you don’t realize what you really have, until you don’t have

it anymore.”

Publisher and CEO, Jimbo Marston says of Davis’ return, “Things

really do happen for a reason. Deciding to put hiring a new editor

on hold led us to Tyla reaching out to inquire if we had filled the

position, which caused a domino effect… and just like that she’s

back! I am super excited to have her back on our team. She is a

true champion for both of our magazines and that’s not something

you find everyday. Welcome home, Tyla!”
