Quick Thinking Kid
from Kurt Portmann
The cop got out of his car and the kid
who was stopped for speeding rolled
down his window. “I’ve been waiting
for you all day” the cop said. The kid
replied “Yeah, I got here as fast as I
could.” When the cop finally stopped
laughing, he sent the kid on his way
without a ticket.

The Heart Surgeon from Guy LaPlante
A mechanic was removing a cylinder head from the motor of a
Harleymotorcycle when he spotted a well-known heart surgeon
in his shop. The surgeon was there waiting for the service
manager to come take a look at his bike when the mechanic
shouted across the garage, "Hey Doc, can I ask you a question?
The surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to where the
mechanic was working on the motorcycle. The mechanic
straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked, "So Doc,
look at this engine.. I open its heart, take the valves out, repair
any damage and then put them back in, and when I finish, it
works just like new. So how come I get such a small salary and
you get the really big bucks, when you and I are doing basically
the same work?"
The surgeon paused, smiled, leaned over and whispered to the
mechanic, "try doing it with the engine running."
The Obedient Wife from Winfried Hillebrand
There was a man who had worked all of his life, had saved all of
his money, and was a real miser when it came to his money.
Just before he died, he said to his wife, "When I die, I want you
to take all my money and put it in the casket with me. I want to
take my money to the after life with me." And so he got his wife
to promise him with all of her heart that when he died, she
would put all of the money in the casket with him.
Well, he died. He was stretched out in the casket, his wife was
sitting there in black, and her friend was sitting next to her.
When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers
got ready to close the casket, the wife said, "Wait just a
minute!" She had a box with her, she came over with the box
and put it in the casket. Then the undertakers locked the casket
down, and they rolled it away.
So her friend said, "Girl, I know you weren't fool enough to put
all that money in there with your husband." The loyal wife
replied, "Listen, I'm a Christian, I can't go back on my word. I
promised him that I was going to put that money in that casket
with him." You mean to tell me you put that money in the casket
with him!!!!?"
“I sure did," said the wife. "I got it all together, put it into
my account and wrote him a check. If he can cash it, he can
spend it."
Clever Wife from Guy LaPlante
A man called home to his wife and said, "Honey, I have been
asked to go fishing up in northern Quebec with my boss &
several of his friends. We'll be gone for a week. This is a good
opportunity for me to get that promotion I've been wanting, so
could you please pack enough clothes for a week and set out my
rod and fishing box? We're leaving from the office & I will swing
by the house to pick my things up." "Oh! Please also pack my
new blue silk pajamas." The wife thinks this sounds a bit fishy
but being the good wife she is, did exactly what her husband
asked.
The following weekend he came home a little tired but
otherwise looking good. The wife welcomed him home and
asked if he caught many fish? He said, "Yes! Lots of Salmon,
some Bluegill, and a few Swordfish. But why didn't you pack my
new blue silk pajamas like I asked you to do?"
The wife replied, "I did. They're in your fishing box....."
Understanding Engineers from Leigh Day
Engineers - Take One:
A pastor, a doctor and an engineer were waiting one morning
for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed,
"What's with these guys? We must have been waiting for 15
minutes!" The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never
seen such ineptitude!" The pastor said, "Hey, here comes the
greens keeper. Let's have a word with him." "Hi George! Say,
what's with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't
they?"
The greens keeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a group of blind
fire-fighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a
fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime." The
group was silent for a moment.
The pastor said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer
for them tonight." The doctor said, "Good idea. And I'm going
to contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's anything
he can do for them."
The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at night?"

Engineers - Take Two:
Two engineering students were
walking across campus when one
said, "Where did you get such a great
bike?" The second engineer replied,
"Well, I was walking along yesterday
minding my own business when a
beautiful woman rode up on this
bike. She threw the bike to the
ground, took off all her clothes and
said, "Take what you want." The
second engineer nodded approvingly,
'Good choice; the clothes probably
wouldn't have fitted."
