ImageCheck Me Out

A woman rushed into the supermarket to pick up a few items. She headed for the express line where the clerk was talking on the phone with his back turned to her.

“Excuse me,” she said. “I’m in a hurry. Could you check me out, please?”

The clerk turned, stared at her for a second, looked her up and down, smiled and said, “Not bad.”

The Famous Cab Driver

The tourist in London climbed into a cab and noticed by the license that his cab driver’s name was Winston Churchill. Trying to make conversation, he said, “I see your name is Winston Churchill.”

The driver simply said, “Yep. That’s my moniker.”

The passenger, not willing to give up yet on some banter, said, “That’s a pretty famous name.”

The driver responded with, “As well it should be too. I’ve been driving a cab here for over forty years!”

The Procrastinator

Determined to have one last, lazy day of fishing before the summer’s end, I purposely ignored the leaky faucet and the broken gate. They were only household projects that had awaited me all summer.

When my wife asked, “What are you going to do today?” I grinned and answered, “It starts with F and ends with ISH.”

“Oh, good,” she replied. “You’re finally going to FinISH up those projects!”
