HAVE A LAUGH

-

SHARING IS CARING

BILLY and John were given a toboggan for their birthday.

After they had been out playing in the snow, Billy was in tears.

“Now, John,” said his father. “I told you to let Billy use the toboggan half the time.” “And I did,” said Billy.

“I had it going down, and he had it going up.”

NO SOLUTIONS

THREE engineers were in a car. They were an electrical engineer, a chemical engineer and a Microsoft engineer.

Suddenly the car just stopped by the side of the road without warning.

The three engineers were puzzled as to what could be wrong. The electrical engineer spoke first.

“I think we need to strip the electronic­s and try to trace where the fault must have occurred.”

The chemical engineer, who knew very little about cars, suggested, “Maybe there’s a blockage in the fuel system, and we need to check that out first?”

Then, the Microsoft engineer, not knowing much about anything, came up with a suggestion: “Why don’t we close all the windows, get out, get back in, open the windows again, and maybe it’ll work!?”

CURING LATENESS

BOB had this problem of getting up late in the morning and was always late for work. After a few weeks of this, his boss was mad and threatened to fire him if he didn’t do something about it.

So Bob went to his doctor, who gave him a pill and told him to take it before he went to bed. He got a great night’s sleep and actually beat the alarm in the morning. After a leisurely breakfast, he cheerfully drove to work.

“Boss,” he said, “the pill my doctor subscribed me actually worked!”

“That’s all fine,” said the boss, “But where were you yesterday?”
