A church group held a luncheon. Afterward the participants took home any desserts that were not used. One of the women looked at her chocolate cake and said, "I can't imagine what happened to this - the fudge icing was hard this morning, the cake moist, and look how disgusting it looks
now. No wonder no one ate it." Another woman looked over and said, "That's my cake in your hand."

"No!" replied Tom.

So a second shot was brought, then a third. "Now have you got your courage?" asked the dentist.

"You're darn right!" Tom said, squaring his shoulders. "I'd like to see who'd dare to touch my teeth now!"

The Governor made room on his busy calendar to hear the plea of one Mrs. Jones that her husband be released from the state penitentiary. "What was he sentenced for?" asked the
Governor gently.

"For stealing a bread truck," replied the offender's wife.

"Is he a good husband?"

"No," she replied frankly, blushing a bit. "He beats me when he gets drunk, he bullies our children, he's unfaithful, and really not much good at all."

"It sounds to me as though you're better off without him," said the Governor. "Why on earth do you want him out of jail?"

"Well," she explained, "we're out of bread again."

While Christmas shopping at a toy store, Barry came across a long line of people waiting for a promised shipment of dolls from Mattel. As he scanned the line, he noticed his friend Wally, waiting with all the others. Knowing that Wally had no daughters or young relatives, Barry figured that Wally must like the dolls himself.

"Wally, I didn't know you were a collector!"

"I'm not," Wally replied.

"Then why are you standing in this long line?"

"Well, I've never been able to resist a Barbie queue!"

A young man was visiting his brother and sister-in-law for Christmas dinner. As he arrived at their house he found his young nephew, Mikey, helping them bake some cupcakes. After they were done, his sister-in-law allowed Mikey to put the icing on. When the boy had finished, he brought them to the table.

"The cupcakes look delicious, Mike." his uncle said. He took a bite and said, "Mikey these are so good." As he finished the cupcake and took another, he again complimented his little nephew. "The cupcakes look beautiful, Mikey," his uncle said. "How did you get the icing so neat?"

His nephew replied, "It was easy. I just licked them."

The uncle turned pale. He pointed to the plate of cupcakes. "You licked all of these?"

Mikey replied, "Well no. After a while my tongue got tired, so I got the dog to help."

Planning a Christmas weekend of entertaining guests, I made a list of things I needed to do, including taking food out of the freezer and going grocery shopping. As it happened, a friend
whom I had been promising to take to lunch, asked if we could make it that Friday. So, hopping into the car, I taped my "to do" list to the dashboard and went and picked her up. As she settled into the car, her face dropped. "Geesh! Thanks a lot!" she sulked.

What? Then I glanced at my list and saw the first item: "Take out the turkey."
