I remember dad’s favorite joke.

When he was a schoolboy he said he came home and said to his dad: “today I learned in school that we came from monkeys.”

His grandfather said him: “maybe you did, but I didn’t!”

He loved to tell that story.


My mother’s favorite jokes concerned people who drank.

One night the men were drinking in the landlady said: “ if you don’t settle down and quit drinking I’m going to call the cops.”

They said: “don’t call the cops, there’s not enough here for us!”

One winter and a guy was coming down slippery steps and he fell. He had a bottle on his hip. The bottle broke and he could feel the Liquid running down his leg any said: “ oh, I hope it’s blood!”
