[Ed. I’m out sick so just a couple of quick hits. I thought about sending out some sick jokes but opted to send lame ones instead. But I’m sick, not lame. Say good night Greg.]<\/p>\n
A Sunday Drive<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
Sitting on the side of the highway waiting to catch speeding drivers, a State Police Officer sees a car puttering along at 22 MPH. <\/p>\n
He thinks to himself, “This driver is just as dangerous as a speeder!” So he turns on his lights and pulls the driver over. <\/p>\n
Approaching the car, he notices that there are five old ladies-two in the front seat and three in the back-wide eyed and white as ghosts. The driver, obviously confused, says to him, “Officer, I don’t understand, I was doing exactly the speed limit! What seems to be the problem?” <\/p>\n
“Ma’am,” the officer replies, “you weren’t speeding, but you should know that driving slower than the speed limit can also be a danger to other drivers.” <\/p>\n
“Slower than the speed limit? No sir, I was doing the speed limit exactly…Twenty- two miles an hour!” the old woman says a bit proudly. <\/p>\n
The State Police officer, trying to contain a chuckle explains to her that “22” was the route number, not the speed limit. <\/p>\n
A bit embarrassed, the woman grinned and thanked the officer for pointing out her error. <\/p>\n
“But before I let you go, Ma’am, I have to ask… is everyone in this car OK? These women seem awfully shaken and they haven’t muttered a single peep this whole time,” the officer asks with concern. <\/p>\n
“Oh, they’ll be all right in a minute officer. We just got off Route 119.”<\/p>\n
Best Patients<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
Five surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients on the operating table. The first surgeon says, “I like to see accountants on my operating table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered.” The second responds, “Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside them is color coded.” The third surgeon says, “No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside them is in alphabetical order.” The fourth surgeon chimes in: “You know, I like construction workers…those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end, and when the job takes longer than you said it would.” But the fifth surgeon shut them all up when he observed: “You’re all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There’s no guts, no heart, and no spine, and the head and butt are interchangeable.” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
