Speaking of such, I taught part-time at the college level for 15 years.  I had a student turn in a paper that looked familiar.  You see, my wife has a different last name than mine.

Two penguins were paddling a canoe up a dry stream bed in Arizona.

One said to the other "Where's the paddle?"

"Sure does" said the other one.

(this joke works much better when spoken instead of written)
(spelling is this way to allow for the proper level of confusion)

"Hundreds of years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in or the type of car I drove... But the world may be different because I did something so bafflingly crazy that it becomes a tourist destination"

Two friars open a flower shop to raise funds for their mission.  They are successful, but this causes problems for the other flower shops.  Every attempt they make to compete with the friars fails. Finally, in desperation, they hire a local thug, Hugh McTaggert. Without hesitation Hugh beats up the friars and trashes the flower shop.  The friars close down their business, and the other florists are releaved their competition is gone.  Which goes to prove, only Hugh can prevent florist friars.

Two young boys walked into a pharmacy, picked out a box of tampons, and proceeded to the checkout counter.

The man at the counter asked the older boy, "Son, how old are you?"

"Eight" the boy replied.

The man continued, "Do you know what these are used for?"

The boy replied, "Not exactly, but they aren't for me. They're for him... He's my brother. He's four. We saw on TV that if you use these, you will be able to swim and ride a bike. Right now, he can't do either"

A friend just texted me:

Every week day grandma would get on the van to the Senior Citizens Center.  To show her appreciation she would hand the driver a zip lock bag of peanuts.  The driver, at first appreciated them, but eventually grew tired of them.  One day he told her that there was no need to be so generous. "Oh, that's ok", she replied, " They would just go waste.  I don't have any teeth and can only suck the chocolate off of them."

I had my wife draw the cartoon below. I think my words need to go in a little caption thing or maybe it's called a word bubble to show what the rat is thinking.

Maybe he needs a briefcase or something else to indicate that he quit a job. Cartoon animals often have jobs usually reserved for humans. :-)
