A Joke

In memory of my Dad. Today was his birthday.

A guy with a speech impediment walked into a bar and asked, "How much for a beer?"
"Three dollars."
"Three dollars? That's alot of money! Oh- I'll take one," muttered the man as he quickly drank it down. "How much for a glass of wine?"
"Eight dollars," the bartender replied.
"Eight dollars! That's a lot of money. Oh well, I'll take one." He drank it down as he turned to leave said, "Thanks for not mentioning my speech impediment."
And the bartender said, "Thanks for not mentioning my hunchback."
"Hunchback? I thought it was your butt! Everything else is so high in here!"

I miss him and his jokes.

The Wisdom of a 5 yr Old

The other day I came into the kitchen to find yet another mess for me to clean. It had been a long day already and it was only 10:30. As I began cleaning it, I also began to grumble and then I heard Anne give a long sigh and say, "It's all part of having kids, Mom."
