A DANCE Last night I was chillin’ on the couch watching TV when I heard my wife call from the kitchen: “What do you want for dinner, my love - chicken, beef, or lamb?” I smiled and said, “Chicken, please, my love.” She yelled back…“Not you, Mister! You’re having Weight-Watchers soup. I was talking to the cat!” H H H H H H H H A nun wakes up and starts walking through the convent. The first nun she meets says, “You got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning.” She shakes it off and keeps walking. Then the second nun says the same thing — “You got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning.” Now she’s a bit annoyed... but keeps walking. She hears the same comment from three more nuns. Now she’s fuming! She storms straight to the Mother Superior’s office. Before the Mother Superior can say a word, the nun snaps: “DON’T TELL ME I GOT OUT OF THE WRONG SIDE OF THE BED THIS MORNING!” The Mother Superior calmly replies, “I wasn’t going to say that at all. I was just going to ask...why are you wearing the Bishop’s slippers?” H H H H H H H H A couple in their early 60s was celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary at the quiet little restaurant where they had their very first date, when a beautiful fairy appeared. She said, “As you’ve been such a faithful and loving couple - I’ll grant you each of you one wish!” The wife took her husband’s hand, smiled into his eyes and said lovingly: “I’d love to travel around the world with my darling husband.” The fairy waved her wand and Poof! Two first-class tickets for a luxury world cruise appeared. Next it was the husband’s turn. He thought long and hard and eventually took hold of his wife’s hand looked into her eyes and said: “Well… as this is once in a lifetime and although still very beautiful... I’m sorry to say , my love, but my wish is to have a wife who is 30 years younger than me.” The fairy frowned at him, ‘Are you sure?’ “Yep,” I’m sure the husband said. “ Okay, a wish is a wish,” said the fairy and she waved her wand... Poof! Suddenly the husband was 92 years old!
