Weight loss
Needing to shed a few pounds, my husband and I went on a diet that had specific recipes for each meal of the day. I followed the instructions closely, dividing the finished recipe in half for our individual plates.
We felt terrific and thought the diet was wonderful because we never felt hungry!
But when we realized we were gaining weight, not losing it, I checked the recipes again.
There, in very fine print was: “Serves 6.”
I need a raise
“I have to have a raise,” the man said to his boss. “There are three other companies after me.”
“Is that so?” asked the manager. “What other companies are after you?”
“The electric company, the telephone company, and the gas company.”
Call to Principal
The telephone rings in the principal’s office at a school.
“Hello, this is Dunn Elementary,” answers the principal.
“Hi. Jimmy won’t be able to come to school all next week,” replies the voice.
“Well, what seems to be the problem with him?”
We are all going on a family vacation,” says the voice,
“I hope it is all right.”
“I guess that would be fine,” says the principal. ” May I ask who is calling?”
“Sure. This is my father!”
