A man and a woman wanted to buy a flat. The agent took them
to a cheap flat to look. They did not like it very much.
However, the woman asked, “It is important to know - is it
insulated?”

doesn’t work.”

Alice was sitting in the waiting room for her first appointment
with a new dentist. She noticed his diploma, which had his full
name.
She suddenly remembered a tall, handsome, dark-haired boy with
the same name who had been in her high school class some 30
years ago. She wondered if he was the same guy she had a secret
crush on.
Upon seeing him, she quickly discarded any such thought. That
balding, gray-haired man with a deeply-lined face was way too old
to have been her classmate.
After he examined her teeth, she asked him if he had attended
Morgan Park High school.
“Yes. Yes, I did,” the dentist gleamed with pride.
Alice: When did you graduate?
Dentist: In 1967. Why do you ask?
Alice: You were in my class!
Dentist: What did you teach?

The young mother skeptically examined a new educational toy.
“Isn’t it rather complicated for a small boy?” she asked the sales
clerk. “It’s designed to teach the child how to live in today’s
world, madam,” the sales clerk replied. “Any way he tries to put it
together is wrong.”

A college student in a philosophy class was taking his first
examination.
On the paper there was a single line, which simply said, “Is this a

The student received an “A grade” on the exam.

A man and a little boy entered a barber’s shop at the same
time. After receiving the treatment, including shave, shampoo,
manicure, and haircut, the man placed the boy on the chair and
said “I’m going to buy a green tie to wear for the parade, so I’ll be
back in a few minutes.”
When the boy’s haircut was done and the man showed no sign
of return, the barber said, “Looks like your daddy has forgotten
all about you.” “That wasn’t my daddy,” said the boy. “He just
walked up, took me by my hand and said, “Come on son, we’re
going to get a free haircut!’”

drunk man.
He looks up in the sky and says, “Is that the sun or the moon?”
The other drunk man answers, “I don’t know. I’m a stranger here
myself.”
