It's Funny - 15 years later!

What can be better then joining two things like humor and kids?  One of my most cherished moments is joking around with my kids.  Although my 4-year old doesn't get most of them yet, I LOVE joking with my 9-year-old.  ESPECIALLY when she figures out the punch-line like 3 days later.  Or even months later.  THAT is funny!

Here is one of those jokes my parents said all the time ...

"Cantalope tonight ... pops got the car"

I think I heard this one for about 15 years before I understood it. It is like watching "M.A.S.H.", "Hogan's Heroes", or "Sandford and Son" as a kid - I watched 100's of times and only now get the humor.

This one I still use with my kids ...  

"His dad and my dad went to different schools together."

So ...

What are your most memorable jokes as a kid? 

Who out there in the AR can bring the funnies?

A horse walks into a restaurant and saddles up to the bar.

The bartender asks, "Why the long face?"

 

OR

A bear walks by a house that has all Southern exposure.  What color is the bear?

Richard - you are a genius - I forgot about the bear one - I'm going to ask my 9-year old today.

The bear one has me too.  The funny jokes I still remember aren't funny to me at all now.  They were pretty stupid, mostly.

There were three fathers to be in a hospital waiting room, waiting for their babies to be born.

The first nurse comes out and tells the first father, "Congratulations you're the father of twins!" He says, "Great! I am the manager for the Minnesota Twins."

The second nurse comes out and tells the second father, "Congratulations you're the father of triplets"! He says, "That's cool! I work for 3M."

The third father opens the window and jumps out.

The third nurse comes out, and asks, "Where's the third father?"

One of the other fathers said, "Oh he jumped out the window."

The nurse asks, "Why?"

He replied, "He works for Seven Up!"

Ok so it doesn't keep you guys and gals from sleeping ... the only place all walls can have a southern exposure is the North Pole, so the bear must be ... white, a polar bear. 

Kathy - I wonder if people look at us crooked because we always repeat the kid's messed up sayings ... like my son for  a long time called a helicopter a Helipatractor

Integrity - that was sooo bad ;-P

Steve,

The kids (when they were much younger) make me laugh just by their looks of either disbelief that I said what I said OR they just don't get it....either way works for me....LOL
