    Did you hear about the farmer who ploughed his field with a steamroller?

    He wanted to grow mashed potatoes!
    Entertaining Idiots

    I once wrote a book called How to Keep an Idiot Entertained for Hours. It went like this: To keep an idiot entertained for hours, read the next sentence. To keep an idiot entertained for hours, read the previous sentence.” It didn’t sell very well.

    I thought with the short attention span of people these days it may have been too long, so I rewrote it. The 2nd edition went: “To keep an idiot busy for hours, re-read this sentence.”

    It’s doing pretty good. I have a deal for the sequel. The 3rd edition is going to go: “Re-read this line.”

    Trouble is, I’m not as sharp as I used to be, so it’s become my favorite book to curl up with on a rainy day. It absorbs me for hours.
    Antennas

    Do you know about the two TV antennas that got married?

    The wedding was terrible, but the reception was terrific.

    Groan

    OK I'm safe to post a joke here :

    A man feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he thought she might need a hearing aid.

    Not quite sure how to approach her, he called the family Doctor to discuss the problem.

    The Doctor told him there is a simple formal test the husband could perform to give the Doctor a better idea about her hearing loss.

    Here's what you do,' said the Doctor, 'stand about 40 feet away from her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears you.

    If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on until you get a response.'

    That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he was in the den. He says to himself, 'I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what happens.'

    Then in a normal tone he asks, 'Honey , what's for dinner?'

    No response.

    So the husband moves closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet from his wife and repeats, 'Honey, what's for dinner?'

    Still no response.

    Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet from his wife and asks, 'Honey, what's for dinner?'

    Again he gets no response.

    So, he walks up to the kitch en door, about 10 feet away. 'Honey, what's for dinner?' Again there is no response.

    So he walks right up behind her. 'Honey, what's for dinner?'
