A couple completed their dinner and the man asked for the check. Thinking to impress his date, he called the waiter over and loudly complained that the bill was incorrect. The waiter patiently reviewed the bill with the man, and it was correct.

"Are you trying to make a fool out of me?" the man fumed.

"No, Sir! Not in the least, Sir. I never interfere with nature!"

Did you hear about the man from the income tax bureau who phoned a minister to say, "We're checking the tax return of a member of your church, and noticed he lists a donation to your church 300 dollars. Is that correct?"

The minister answered without hesitation, "I haven't got any records available, but I'll promise you one thing: If he hasn't, he will!"

An architect was having a difficult time with a prospective home builder.

"Can't you at least give me an idea of the type of house you want to build?" pleaded the architect.

The man hesitated, then replied, "Well, all I can tell you, it must go with an antique doorknob my wife bought in Boston."

Maurice started his very own business, which almost immediately began to prosper. He was soon a very rich man.

One day, his bank manager rang him and said, "I have a query on one of your recent cheques. For years, you've been signing all cheques with two Xs, but this one is signed with three Xs. Could you confirm it is one of yours?"

Maurice replied, "Yes, it is. Since I've become so wealthy, my wife thought I ought to have a middle name."

An old philosopher of Greece once received a severe tongue-lashing from his wife.

As he listened in silence, she became all the more infuriated. So she picked up a pail of cold water and threw it over him from head to foot.

With the water still dripping from him, he thought, 'After that thunder and lightning, I rather expected a shower.'

The good news about midlife is that the glass is still half full.

Of course, the bad news is that it won't be long before your teeth are floating in it.

A woman browsing through an antique store sees a cat drinking milk from a saucer. She recognizes the saucer as a rare antique piece. Trying to be clever, she says to the lady running the store, "How much do you want for the cat?"

The woman says, "Ten pounds."

The buyer goes on, "While I'm at it, could I give you another pound for the saucer? The cat seems to enjoy drinking from it."

The shopkeeper shakes her head, "Sorry, but I've sold nineteen cats from that one saucer!"
