The night before their marriage, Jerry called on his innocent bride-to-be at her apartment. "There's nothing to be nervous about," he assured her, "making love is very simple. Tonight I'll demonstrate first how Cousin Alvin makes love, then how Cousin Benson makes love, and finally how my Uncle John makes love." The next morning a telegram arrived: "Thanks for lessons. Have eloped with your Uncle John."

The husband had just finished his book "Man of the House." He stormed into the house and walked directly up to his wife. Pointing a finger in her face he said; "From now on, I want you to know that I am the Man of this house and my word is law! I want you to prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, and when I'm finished eating my meal, I expect a sumptuous dessert afterward. Then, after dinner, you're going to draw me my bath so I can relax. And when I'm finished with my bath, guess who's going to dress me and comb my hair?"
His wife replied, "The funeral director."

While I was employed by a private corporation and assigned to the space-shuttle program, my job included ordering supplies. One of the engineers had asked me to get a new dictionary for him. The request form said, "State reason this item is needed." I asked him why he wanted one. I expected his answer would be "My old copy is lost," or "The cover is falling off." Instead he replied, "My edition defines spaceship as an 'imaginary aircraft.'" He got his new dictionary!

The judge was disturbed. This was the ninth time this year that George had appeared before him and the ninth time he was convicted. It was always for minor crimes, shoplifting a six- pack of beer, pick-pocketing, breaking into a parking meter. And he always seemed to be caught with the loot still on him. Before sentencing George, the judge decided to try to make him see the errors of his ways. "You should be thoroughly ashamed of yourself." he told George.
George answered, "No man should be ashamed of his convictions."

Judi stood before the judge in divorce court.
Judge: "You have asked for a divorce decree from this court. Madam, is that correct?"
Judi: "Yes, it is."
"And the grounds for your request is that your husband is too careless about his appearance. Is that also correct?"
"That's right, Judge. He hasn't appeared at home for five years now."

Jacob is one of the lucky ones because he's the only one of his family to have survived two years in a concentration camp. He's now nearing 90 and his only remaining joy is the national lottery, which he's been playing for years without success. But then he wins the big one, a prize of $10 million, and a journalist from the Times calls on him for a story. Jacob tells him, 'as I'm the only one in my family to have survived concentration camp, this has helped me decide how to make use of my large win. So I've decided to donate $5 million to the Save the Children Fund, $3 million to the Simon Wiesenthal Center, $750,000 to the Jewish Museum, $750,000 Hadassah Hospital and $500,000 to be shared amongst my friends. I'm also thinking of donating $1 from my pocket to the Nazi party.' The journalist is surprised. 'But Jacob, how can you think of donating even $1 to the Nazi party after everything that's happened to you and your family?' Jacob rolls up his sleeve, points to his arm, smiles and replies, 'It's only fair. They gave me the winning numbers.'
