Three ladies were discussing the travails of getting older.
The first one said, "Now and again I realise I'm holding a jar of mayonnaise in front of the fridge, and I can't remember whether I need to put it away or start making a sandwich."
The second lady chimed in, "Yes, sometimes I find myself on the landing, and I can't remember whether I was on my way up the stairs, or on my way down!"
The third one responded, "Well, ladies, I'm glad I don't have that problem. Knock on wood!" and rapped her knuckles on the table.
Then she said, "That must be the door! I'll get it!"
Third one's a charm
We've created this area in the hope of seeing material ranging from some well-told (or well retold) jokes to original writing with a humorous slant, or anything else that might appeal to the kind of person who enjoys playing with words more than people. That probably means someone like yourself. N.B. -- Postings preceded by ** contain some sexual or risqué content. (Makes them easier to find.)
