Inherent Inheritances

Roy saw his old friend Paul drinking by himself at a bar. They hadn’t seen each other in over a year, and Paul was looking noticeably down.

“Long time no see, Paul,” began Roy. “How are things going?”

Roy looked up at his old friend with sadness in his eyes, and said, “Four months ago, my mother died and left me $10,000.”

“Gee, that’s tough,” Roy replied.

“Then two months ago,” Paul continued, “My father died, leaving me $20,000.”

“Wow. Two parents gone in two months,” Roy commented. “No wonder you look so depressed.”

Pressing on, Paul said, “And last month my aunt died, and left me $15,000.”

“Three close family members lost in three months? Paul, I’m so sorry for your loss!”

“Then this month,” sighed Paul, “absolutely nothing!”

Meeting an Old Flame

Bill and Hillary Clinton were visiting Hillary’s home town of Chicago. Before leaving town, their driver stopped at a service station to fill up the car with gas.

As it turned out, the owner of the station was a former boyfriend of the former first lady. They exchanged their hellos, and went on their way.

As the they pulled out of the station, Bill put his arm around Hillary and said, “Well, honey, if you would had stayed with him, you would be the wife of a service station owner today.”

She smirked and replied, “No, if I had stayed with him, he would have been the President of the United States.”

Taxing Flags

A visitor from Holland was chatting with his American friend and was jokingly explaining about the red, white and blue in the Netherlands flag.

“Our flag symbolizes our taxes,” he said.

“We get red when we talk about them, white when we get our tax bill, and blue after we pay them.”

“That’s the same with us,” the American said, “only we see stars, too.”

The Mirror Diet

Anne was telling Nicole about the new “mirror diet” she was on. “You can eat as much of whatever you want, but you have to do it while standing naked in front of a full length mirror,” she explained.

“Oh, I tried that one,” said Nicole, “but I just couldn’t stand it after the first week!”

“Well, it can be difficult confronting your self image,” remarked Anne.

“No, it wasn’t that,” explained Nicole. “Before I could take a single bite, the restaurant would kick me out!”

Movie Survey

While walking through the mall, Tom was stopped by a man with a clipboard.

“I’m taking a survey,” said the man. “Do you think there is too much sex in movies?”

“I’m not sure,” replied Tom. “I get too wrapped up in the film to notice what the rest of the audience is doing.”

Sore Throat Threat

Yesterday’s comic was inspired by the fact that I woke up with a mildly sore throat on Friday. Now to be honest, I’m a big baby when it comes to getting sick. You can forget about me even coming into work for a day or so; at least until I can get my shit together.

Fortunately it’s the weekend, and I was able to get it soothed. I made some homemade chicken noodle soup, and that pretty much helped knock the sick right out of me.

Of course if I hadn’t been able to take care of it right away, and I had pushed myself to work or what have you, I would currently be a flaming bag of snot and pain. I really don’t need that right now.

Which Profession Came First?

A surgeon, an architect, and a politician were arguing about whose profession was the oldest.

The surgeon began, “Eve was made from Adam’s rib, and that surely was a surgical procedure.”

“Maybe,” said the architect, “but prior to that, order was created out of chaos, and that was an architectural job!”

The politician interrupted, “Well who do you think created the chaos in the first place?”

Two by Fours

A blonde walked into a lumber yard and and told the clerk she needed some two by fours.

With a nod, the clerk asked, “How long?”

The blonde’s brow furrowed with a worried look of confusion. After thinking about it for a moment, the blonde replied, “A really long time; I’m building a shed.”

Warning Sign

A couple of preachers stood along a rural road with a large sign that read, “The end is near! Turn yourself around before it’s too late!”

As a car drove by, they frantically waived their arms, yelled at the motorist, and pointed to the sign.

Unphased, the driver yelled out his window, “Get out of the road you religious zealots!” He proceeded to drive around the bend, and a moment later there was the sound of a large splash.

One of the preachers looked to the other and said, “I told you we should put up a sign that reads ‘Bridge Out’ instead.”
