Forward Ever Forward

I was barely sitting down on the toliet when I heard a voice from the other stall saying:
‘Hi, how are you?’

I’m not the type to start a conversation in the restroom but I don’t know what got into me, so I answered, somewhat embarrassed,
‘Doin’ just fine!’

And the other person says:
‘So what are you up to?’

What kind of question is that? At that point, I’m thinking this is too bizarre so I say:
‘Uhhh, I’m like you, just traveling!’

At this point I am just trying to get out as fast as I can when I hear another question.
‘Can I come over?’

Ok, this question is just too weird for me but I figured I could just be polite and end the conversation. I tell them
‘No..I’m a little busy right now!!!’

Then I hear the person say nervously…

‘Listen, I’ll have to call you back. There’s an idiot in the other stall who keeps answering all my questions.’

A drunken cowboy lay sprawled across three entire seats in the posh Amarillo Theater. When the usher came by and noticed this, he whispered to the cowboy, “Sorry, sir, but you’re only allowed one Seat.”

The cowboy groaned but didn’t budge. The usher became more impatient:

“Sir, if you don’t get up from there I’m going to have to call the Manager.”

Once again, the cowboy just groaned. The usher marched briskly back up the aisle, and in a moment he returned with the manager. Together the two of them tried repeatedly to move the cowboy, but with no success.

Finally they summoned the police. The Texas Ranger surveyed the situation briefly then asked, “All right buddy what’s your name?”

“Fred,” the cowboy moaned.

“Where ya from, Fred?” asked the Ranger.

With terrible pain in his voice, and without moving a muscle, Fred replied,

A little boy got on the bus, sat next to a man reading a book, and noticed he had his collar on backwards. The little boy asked why he wore his collar that way.

The man, who was a priest, said, “I am a Father.”

The little boy replied, “My Daddy doesn’t wear his collar like that.”

The priest looked up from his book and answered “I am the Father of many.”

The boy said, “My Dad has 4 boys, 4 girls and two grandchildren and he doesn’t wear his collar that way.”

The priest, getting impatient, said, “I am the Father of hundreds” and went back to reading his book.

The little boy sat quietly thinking for a while, then leaned over and said, “Maybe you should wear your pants backwards instead of your collar.”

My young grandson called the other day to wish me Happy
Birthday. He asked me how old I was, and I told him, “62.” He was quiet for a moment,
and then he asked, “Did you start at 1?”

After putting her grandchildren to bed for a sleepover, a grandmother
washed off her makeup, changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and
began to color her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more
rambunctious, her patience grew thin. At last she stormed into their room,
putting them back to bed with stern warnings. As she left the room, she
heard the three-year-old say in a trembling voice, “Who was THAT?”

—————————————————————————-
A grandmother was telling her little granddaughter what her own
childhood was like: “We used to skate outside on a po nd. I had a swing
made from a tire; it hung from a tree in our front yard. We rode our pony. We
picked wild raspberries in the woods.” The little girl was wide-eyed,
taking this in. At last she said, “I sure wish I’d gotten to know you sooner!”

—————————————————————————–
My grandson was visiting one day when he asked, “Grandma, do you
know how you and God are alike?” I mentally polished my halo while I asked ,
“No, how are we alike?” “You’re both old,” he replied.

A little girl was diligentl y pounding away on her grandfather’s
word processor. She told him she was writing a story. “What’s it about?” he
asked. “I don’t know,” she replied. “I can’t read.”

—————————————————————————-
I didn’t know if my granddaughter had learned her colors yet, so I
decided to test her. I would point out something and ask what color it was.
She would tell me, and always she was correct. But it was fun for me, so I
continued. At last she headed for the door, saying sagely, “Grandma, I
think you should try to figure out some of these yourself!”

When my grandson Billy and I entered our vacation cabin, we kept
the lights off until we were inside to keep from attracting pesky insects.
Still, a few fireflies followed us in. Noticing them before I did, Billy
whispered, “It’s no use, Grandpa. The mosquitoes are coming after us with
flashlights.”

——————————————————————————
When my grandson asked me how old I was, I teasingly replied, “I’m
not sure.” “Look in your underwear, Grandma,” he advised. “Mine says I’m
four to six.”

A second grader came home from school and said to her grandmother,
“Grandma, guess what? We learned how to make babies today.” The
grandmother, more than a little surprised, tried to keep her cool. “That’s interesting,”
she said, “How do you make babies?” “It’s simple,” replied the girl. “You
just change ‘y’ to ‘I and add ‘es’.”

“Give me a sentence about a public servant,” said a teacher. The

A nursery school teacher was delivering a station wagon full of
kids home one day when a fire truck zoomed past. Sitting in the front seat of
the fire truck wa s a Dalmatian dog. The children started discussing the dog’s
duties. “They use him to keep crowds back,” said one youngster. “No,” said
another, “he’s just for good luck.” A third child brought the argument to a
close: “No, they use the dogs to find the fire hydrant.”

Two bright young engineers applied for the same position at a computer company. Since they had identical qualifications, the company asked the two applicants to take a ten-question test. At the conclusion of the test, one of the applicants was called into the manager’s office. “I have graded the test, and you both scored nine correct answers and got one answer wrong. Thank you for your interest, but we’ve decided to give the job to the other applicant.”

“And why would you choose him if we both got nine questions correct?” asked the rejected applicant. “We have based our decision not on the correct answers, but on the question you missed,” said the Department manager.

“And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?” the rejected applicant inquired.

“Simple,” said the Department manager, “The other gentleman answered Question #5, ‘I don’t know.’ Your answer to Question #5 was, ‘Neither do I.’”

A young family moved into a house next door to a vacant lot. One day a construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty lot. The young family’s 5-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door and spent much of each day observing the workers.

Eventually the construction crew, all of them gems-in-the-rough, more or less adopted her as a kind of project mascot. They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and lunch breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel important.

At the end of the first week they even presented her with a pay envelope containing an official payroll check! It was only $2, but the little girl took this home to her mother who said all the appropriate words of admiration and suggested that they take the two-dollar “pay” she had received to the bank the next day to start a savings account.

When they got to the bank, the teller was equally impressed and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own paycheck at such a young age. The little girl proudly replied, “I worked last week with the crew building the house next door to us.

“My goodness gracious!” said the teller. “And will you be working on the house again this week, too?”

The little girl replied, “I will if those dirtbags at Home Depot ever deliver the damned sheetrock!”

I need some of these, really I do.

1. Go to a secondhand store and buy a pair of men’s used size 14-16 work boots.

2. Place them on your front porch, along with a copy of Guns & Ammo Magazine.

3. Put a few giant dog dishes next to the boots and magazine.

4. Leave a note on your door that reads:
Hey Bubba, Big Jim, Duke and Slim, I went for more shotgun shells. Back in an hour. Don’t mess with the pit bulls–don’t know what got into them, but they attacked the mailman this morning and messed him up real bad. I don’t think Killer took part in it but it was hard to tell from all the blood.
Anyway, I locked all four of ‘em in the house. Better wait out here on the porch.
