JEST FOR FUN

While waiting in line at the bank, a man developed a very loud case of the hiccups. By the time he reached the teller's window, the hiccups had gotten worse. The teller took the man's check and proceeded to run a computer verification of his account. After a minute she looked up from her terminal. "I'm sorry but I can't cash this check," she said. "Why not?" the man asked, incredulously. The teller replied, "Apparently, our computer indicates that you do not have sufficient funds to cover this amount. As a matter of fact," she continued, "our records show your account overdrawn in excess of $5,000." "It can't be!" he cried. "You have to be kidding!" "Yes, I am," she answered with a smile, counting out his cash. "But please notice that your hiccups are gone!"

JEST FOR FUN

In a small local town, Josh and Big Hoss, two rookie policemen, were patrolling the downtown business area. They decided to stop into the local coffee shop for a coffee and a donut. Soon, they got a call on their police radio, "33 in process, man in bank dressed as a banana." Well there was only 1 bank in town, in fact, it was just across from the coffee shop. And a 33 was an "armed robbery" and Josh and Big Hoss decided it was the dispatcher playing a joke on them. So they continued on enjoying their coffee break. They got a second call on their radio, "Repeat, Urgent, 33 in process, man in bank dressed as a banana." Realizing it was not a joke, they rushed across the street, but arrived 30 seconds after the banana split.

A man told his doctor, "I don't think my wife's hearing is as good as it used to be. What should do?" The doctor replied, "Try this test first. When your wife is at the sink doing dishes, stand fifteen feet behind her and ask her a question. If she doesn't respond, keep moving closer, asking the same question until she hears you." He went home and saw his wife preparing dinner. Standing fifteen feet behind her, he said, "What's for dinner, honey?" Hearing no reply, he moved up to ten feet behind her and repeated the question. Still no reply, so he moved to five feet. Still no answer. Finally he stood directly behind her and said, "Honey, what's for dinner tonight?" "For the fourth time, I said chicken, You'd better get your hearing checked."

When William Jennings Bryan was a young man, he went to the home of the father of his prospective wife to ask him for her hand in marriage. Bryan was determined to impress the father by quoting from the Bible, and he chose Proverbs 18:22: "He who finds a wife finds a good thing, And obtains favor from the Lord." Bryan was unnerved when the father replied by quoting Paul: "So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better." (1 Corinthians 7:38) Bryan, never at a loss for words, said: "Yes, but Paul had no wife and Solomon had 700. Therefore, I believe Solomon ought to be the better judge as to marriage."

The orchestra was preparing to perform their annual benefit but the orchestra leader was nowhere to be found. They delayed as long as possible and finally decided to ask for a volunteer from the audience. First they gave the baton to a fireman. Alas, he had no rhythm and the orchestra fell into disarray. Then a doctor offered to give it a try, but he didn't have a feel for the dynamics and the music sounded too mechanical. Finally, a police officer saved the day. He took the baton and led the orchestra in, according to many in attendance, the best performance they could remember for years back. Of course, it should have been obvious: Copper is the best conductor.
