I decided to start a joke discussion because we as caregivers need our load lightened. We need to laugh at our own situations and those of others to take away the sting and pain we go through. If you have a joke that's racy then give a heads up at the beginning of your post for those who might not want to read your post. We need to avoid that kind of humor. Please don't come on this thread and berate anyone for their choices of humor. This is our place to let go of criticism. Thanks for sharing!!!! ;o)
I’m not fast.
I’m just half-fast.
This two-letter word in English has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that word is 'UP.' It is listed in the dictionary as an [adv.], [prep.], [adj.], [n] or [v].
It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?
At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP, and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report? We call UP our friends, brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver, warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house and fix UP the old car.
At other times, this little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses.
To be dressed is one thing but to be dressed UP is special.
And this UP is confusing: A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP.
We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night. We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP!
To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look UP the word UP in the dictionary. In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4 of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions.
If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more.
When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP. When the sun comes out, we say it is clearing UP. When it rains, the earth soaks it UP. When it does not rain for awhile, things dry UP. One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now . . . My time is UP!
Did that one crack you UP?
Don't screw UP. Send this on to everyone you look UP in your address book . . . Or not . . . it's UP to you.
Now I'll shut UP!
A birthday is like the next bus – never the number you want.
One night the oldest sister is going to take a bath, she puts one foot in the tub and stops. She yells down the stairs, "am I getting in or out of the bathtub?"
The middle sister yells back, "I don't know, I'll come up and see." Halfway up the stairs she pauses and yells, "am I going up the stairs or down?"
The youngest sister is in the kitchen listening to her sisters' conversation, sighed, "I sure hope I never get that forgetful." Then she knocks on wood for luck and yells, "I'll come up and check after I see who's at the door."

Husband: What about him?
Wife: Ten years ago he proposed to me and I turned him down.
Husband: Wow! He’s still celebrating.
I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch.
I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn't know what else to do, so I started to play.
The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends, played like I've never played before for this homeless man.
And as I played 'Amazing Grace,' the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished I packed up my bagpipes and started for my car. Though my head hung low, my heart was full.
As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, "I ain't never seen nothing like that before and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty years."
you read the top line wrong?
But then, I realize the man was created from dust.
One day while she and her friend were out, there was a knock at the front door and parrot responded "Who is it?"
"It's the gas man, come to read your meter" the visitor replied.
"Who is it?" came the parrot again, and again the same reply, "It's the gas man, come to read your meter".
This went on for hours until the lady and friend returned to find the man unconscious, and slumped on the front porch.
She was a little perplexed when her friend asked "Who is it?" and the parrot replied "It's the gas man, come to read your meter".
“Listen,” said the CEO, “this is a very sensitive and important document, and my secretary is not here. Can you make this thing work?”
“Certainly,” said the young engineer. He turned the machine on, inserted the paper, and pressed the start button.
“Excellent, excellent!” said the CEO as his paper disappeared inside the machine, “I just need one copy.”

In the beginning there was nothing. The Lord said ‘Let there be light’. And there still was nothing, but at least you could see it.

The German Kaiser asked the Swiss ambassador in Berlin: “What would Switzerland do if I invaded with 500 000 soldiers?”
The ambassador replied: “Shoot twice and go home

The grandmother in her weak, tremulous voice said, Norma Findlay, Room 302." The operator replied, "Let me put you on hold while I check with the nurse's station for that room."
After a few minutes, the operator returned to the phone and said,
"I have good news. Her nurse just told me that Norma is doing well. Her blood pressure is fine; her blood work just came back normal and her Physician, Dr. Cohen, has scheduled her to be discharged tomorrow."
The grandmother said, "Thank you. That's wonderful. I was so worried. God bless you for the good News."
The operator replied, "You're more than welcome. Is Norma your daughter?"
The grandmother said, "No, I'm Norma Findlay in Room 302. No one tells me s***."
I’d like to meet the man who invented beer and see what he’s working on now.
