The local news station was interviewing an 80-year-old lady because she had just got married for the fourth time.

The interviewer asked her questions about her life, about what it felt like to be marrying again at 80, and then about her new husband's occupation."He's a funeral director," she answered.

"Interesting," the newsman thought.

He then asked her if she wouldn't mind telling him a little about her first three husbands and what they did for a living.

She paused for a few moments, needing time to reflect on all those years.

After a short time, a smile came to her face and she answered proudly, explaining that she had first married a banker when she was in her early 20's, then a circus ringmaster when in her 40's, and a preacher when in her 60's, and now in her 80's, a funeral director.

The interviewer looked at her, quite astonished, and asked why she had married four men with such diverse careers.

She smiled and explained, "I married one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go."

Good-bye Grandpa

A father put his 3 year old daughter to bed, told her a story and listened to her prayers which ended by saying, "God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, God bless Grandma and good-bye Grandpa.

"The father asked, 'Why did you say good-bye Grandpa?

'The little girl said, "I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to do."

The next day grandpa died.

The father thought it was a strange coincidence.

A few months later the father put the girl to bed and listened to her prayers which went like this, "God bless Mommy, God Bless Daddy and good-bye Grandma."

The next day the grandmother died.

"Holy cow" thought the father, "this kid is in contact with the other side.

"Several weeks later when the girl was going to bed the dad heard her say, "God bless Mommy and good-bye Daddy."

He practically went into shock. He couldn't sleep all night and got up at the crack of dawn to go to his office. He was nervous as a cat all day, had lunch and watched the clock.He figured if he could get by until midnight he would be okay.

He felt safe in the office, so instead of going home at the end of the day he stayed there, drinking coffee, looking at his watch and jumping at every sound. Finally midnight arrived; he breathed a sigh of relief and went home.

When he got home his wife said, "I've never seen you work so late. What's the matter?"

He said, "I don't want to talk about it, I've just spent the worst day of my life.

"She said, "You think you had a bad day, you'll never believe what happened to me. This morning my golf pro dropped dead in the middle of my lesson!"

A woman proves in court that her husband was murdered by her sister, but the judge decides that the sister cannot be punished. Why? (Answer at end).

I just read that list of text abbreviations with my hand over my mouth to keep from giggling out loud and disturbing my husband. We're in a hotel room,and he's trying to work.

They were SO FUNNY!!! I just kept giggling.

I loved TTYL and WTFA.

I see a human face, but I know there's something else, but I can't see it (I'm tired today) and that kitty video is adorable...I watched it three times. Kittens are so much fun.

You gave me my laugh for the day! Loved those texting abbreviations! I was sorry I couldn't view the clips from the 50s--my computer wouldn't let me access them. When I was growing up I loved watching Father Knows Best and the Danny Thomas Show!

Shanda said...

This is one of the most fun sites I have found. I especially liked the abbreviations for seniors!
Thankyou for stopping by my blog. To answer your question: my husband worked for Chiquita Brands International and we constantly relocated. He was laid off, however, 3 years ago and we have settled in Southern California, at least for a while:)

Melanie said...
