Some Jokes to Start

The world needs more laughter, so I am setting up a new blog as a vehicle for passing on jokes, puns and other humorous stuff. I believe that all of material I plan to post is in the public domain; at least, I don't have the faintest idea where most of it came from.. and if I ever find out, I will share that information with you. I've been collecting what I think is humorous material for fifty years and now it is time to share it with y'all, whether you want me to, or not.



01. Christmas:

02. Marriage:


Husband: "My wife handles all the smaill decisions and I handle all the big ones."

They had a very short marriage, they fought over custody of the wedding cake.
