A guy walks into a dentist's office and flops down on the couch.

"Well," says the doctor, "that certainly is a problem, but why did you come into a dentist's office?"
"The light was on."

McGee

A man walks into a doctor’s office… “Doc, I think I’m a kleptomaniac!”

Puns of Punishment | Great Dane Drawings | Navajo Woman Story | Sam The Sailor Corgi | Raleigh Community Vet Hospital | Eat Out For A Cause



Remain Calm Adopt a Dog

Today’s Jokes:

  • I thought I saw an eye-doctor on an Alaskan island, but it turned out to be an optical Aleutian.
  • She was only a whiskey-maker, but he loved her still.
  • A rubber-band pistol was confiscated from an algebra class, because it was a weapon of math disruption.


****



Sally was driving home from one of her business trips in northern Arizona when she saw an elderly Navajo woman walking on the side of the road. As the trip was a long and quiet one, she stopped the car and asked the Navajo woman if she would like a ride.

After a bit of small talk while resuming the journey, the Navajo woman noticed a brown bag on the seat next to Sally.

"What's in the bag?" asked the woman.

Sally looked down at the brown bag and said, "It's a bottle of wine. I got it for my husband."

The Navajo woman was silent for a moment then speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder said, "Good trade."







****

  • No matter how much you push the envelope, it'll still be stationery.
  • A grenade thrown into a kitchen in France would result in Linoleum Blownapart.
  • A hole has been found in the nudist-camp wall. The police are looking into it.

Happy Valentine's Day! | Jokes | Kacy and Cali Yesterday and Today | Block Printing Fun

Today’s Jokes:
What did the elephant say to his girlfriend?
“I love you a ton!”

*************
  
*************
A recent college graduate took a new job in a hilly Eastern city and began commuting each day to work through a tiring array of tunnels, bridges, and traffic jams.
To make the task less onerous, he invited several of his co-workers to share the ride.
He soon found, however, that the commute continued to get more stressful, especially the trips through the tunnels. He consulted the company doctor.
"Doc," the frustrated commuter complained, "I'm fine on the bridges, in the traffic, in the day and at night, and even when Joe forgets to bathe all week long. But when I get into the tunnels and I've got those four other guys crowded around me in the car, I get anxious and dizzy and feel like I'm going to explode."
Without further analysis, the doctor announced he had identified the ailment.
"What is it, Doc? Am I going insane?"
"No, no, no, my boy. You have something very common in these parts."
"Tell me! What is it?"
"You have what is known as Carpool Tunnel Syndrome.

Why did the banana go out with the prune?
