My brother was driving along the road the other day with ten penguins in the back seat. He was stopped by the police who told him that he couldn’t drive around with ten penguins in the car and that he ought to take them to a zoo. My brother agreed with the police officer and drove off. The following day, my brother was driving along the same road still with ten penguins in the back and again. He got stopped by the same police officer who said, “I told you to take those penguins to the zoo.” My brother replied, “I did. But today, I’m taking them to the cinema!” ................................................................................................. During the wedding rehearsal, the groom approached the vicar with an unusual offer. “Look, I’ll give you $100, if you’ll change the wedding vows. When you get to me and the part where I’m to promise to ‘love, honor and obey’ and ‘forsaking all others, be faithful to her forever,’ I’d appreciate it if you’d just leave that part out.” He passed the clergyman the cash and walked away satisfied. The wedding day arrives, and the bride and groom have moved to that part of the ceremony where the vows are exchanged. When it comes time for the groom’s vows, the vicar looks the young man in the eye and says, “Will you promise to prostrate yourself before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life and swear eternally before God and your lovely wife that you will not ever even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?” The groom gulped and looked around, and said in a tiny voice, “Yes.” The groom leaned toward the vicar and hissed, “I thought we had a deal.” The vicar put the $100 into his hand and whispered back, “She made me a much better offer!” |
