WELCOME to FRIDAY MAY 22, 2020
WEEKEND PUNOGRAPHY…
Why is it that when you’re driving and looking for an address,
you turn down the volume on the radio?
If you have your finger touching the rear view mirror that says —
“objects in mirror are closer than they appear”, how can that be possible?
Why is it so hard to remember how to spell MNEMONIC?
If someone invented instant water, what would they mix it with?
Why is it called a TV “set” when you only get one?
Why does your nose run and your feet smell?
Why does an alarm clock “go off” when it begins ringing?
If pro is the opposite of con, is progress the opposite of congress?
Why does “cleave” mean both split apart and stick together?
Why is it, whether you sit up or sit down, the result is the same?
Why is it called a “building” when it is already built?
Why do they call them “apartments” when they are all stuck together?
Why is there an expiration date on SOUR cream?
If you keep trying to prove Murphy’s Law, will something keep going wrong?
Why does flammable and inflammable mean the same thing?
How can someone “draw a blank”?😳
Shouldn’t there be a shorter word for “monosyllabic”?
Why is the word “abbreviate” so long?
Why did kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
What is another word for “thesaurus”?
Hey I’m just saying. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a GREAT WEEKEND people, stay safe, and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up!
Peace, I am outta here! Eucman!

When hiring new staff at the public library, I always
ask applicants what sort of supervision they’d be
most comfortable with. One genius answered, “I’ve
always thought Superman’s X-ray vision would be cool.”

My niece was thrilled to hear that a new car wash
was opening up in her neighborhood. “How convenient,”
she said. “I can walk to it!”

Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes….
When our lawn mower broke and wouldn’t run, my wife kept
hinting to me that I should get it fixed. But, somehow I always
had something else to take care of first, the truck, the car, playing
golf. Always something more important to me. Finally she thought
of a clever way to make her point. When I arrived home one day,
I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny
pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then
went into the house. I was gone only a minute, and when I came
out again I handed her a toothbrush. I said, ‘When you finish cutting
the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway.’ The doctors
say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp. 😱😁😎
