Good jokes-Growing up

Someone asked the other day, 'What was your favorite 'fast food' when you were growing up?'

'We didn't have fast food when I was growing up,' I informed him. 'All the food was slow.'

'C'mon, seriously.. Where did you eat?'

'It was at a place called 'home,'' I explained. 'Mum cooked every day and when Dad got home from work, we sat down together at the dining table and if I didn't like what she put on my plate, I was allowed to sit there until I did like it.'

By this time, the lad was laughing so hard I was afraid he was going to suffer serious internal damage, so I didn't tell him the part about how I had to have permission to leave the table.

But here are some other things I would have told him about my childhood if I'd figured his system could have handled it :-

Some parents NEVER owned their own house, wore jeans, set foot on a golf course, traveled out of the country or had a credit card.

My parents never drove me to school. I had a bicycle that weighed probably 50 pounds, and only had one speed (slow).

We didn't have a television in our house until I was 10.

It was, of course, black and white and the station went off the air at 10.00 pm, after playing the national anthem and epilogue; it came back on the air at about 6 am!

And there was usually a locally produced news and farm show on, featuring local people ...

I never had a telephone in my room. The only phone was on a party line.

Before you could dial, you had to listen and make sure some people you didn't know weren't already using the line.

Pizzas were not delivered to our home ... But milk was.

All newspapers were delivered by boys and all boys delivered newspapers My brother delivered newspapers, seven days a week. He had to get up at 5 am every morning to do this.

Film stars kissed with their mouths shut. At least, they did in the films.

There were no movie ratings because all movies were responsibly produced for everyone to enjoy viewing without profanity or lewd scenes or violence or almost anything offensive.

Growing up isn't what it used to be, is it?

Really funny jokes-Expensive Greeting cards

Like everything else in life, the rates of various greeting cards are increasing leaps and bounds. The store owner of one such shop was often receiving complaints about increasing cost of the cards. But he never took these complaints seriously until one day he faced a situation he had not bargained for.

Customer: “Have you any card for someone who is about to turn a hundred?”

Owner: “Sure do.”

The owner led the customer to the related card stand and pointed at the cards: “They are for centurions.”

The customer selected one card, looked at the price printed on the reverse and asked: “If he doesn’t last for a week and make it, will you accept this back?”

Clean jokes-Two brothers

Two brothers, Rob and Bob, found themselves a job on a ship.
Rob had really large eyes and Bob had huge ears.

The captain of the ship asked them, "What can you do?"

"Well, I can be a lookout," said Rob, the fellow with the large eyes.

"What will he do?" asked the captain.

"Well, he's my brother, Can't leave him alone. He'll come with me." replied Rob

The captain agreed and said, "All right you can be lookout and take him with you to the crow's nest and keep him out of my face!"

They had been at sea for a fortnight when the whistle from the crow's nest sounded in the wheelhouse!
"Ship bearing port 10."

The captain looked at the radar, not an echo on the scope. "Are you sure?" he asked.

"Positive," replied Rob, "and what's more, its Chinese."

"How do you know that?" the captain asked.

Rob replied, "My brother Bob can hear them talking!"

Really funny jokes-Confronted

Two deliverymen were taking a large refrigerator to a local priest's home. With difficulty they had managed to get the fridge onto the porch, but struggled for over 20 minutes to make the 90-degree turn through the narrow door.

The priest, seeing their difficulty, asked what they usually did when confronted with such a situation.

Rubbing some badly skinned knuckles, one deliveryman replied, "Well, Father, at this point we usually start cursing."

"Well, gentlemen," the priest replied, "allow me time to move out of earshot so you can continue your work."
