JOHN'S LAST WILL & TESTAMENT


John lived all his life in the Florida Keys and is on his deathbed and knows the end is near. His nurse, his wife, his daughter and two sons are with him. He asks for two witnesses to be present and a camcorder to be in place to record his last wishes, and when all is ready, he begins to speak: 

 "My son, Doug, I want you to take the Ocean Reef houses"

 "My daughter Kelly, you take the apartments between mile markers 100 and Tavernier."

 "My son, Kevin, I want you to take the offices over in the Marathon Government Center."

 "Cathy, my dear wife, please take all the residential buildings on the bay side on Blackwater Sound."

 The nurse and witnesses are blown away as they did not realize his extensive holdings, and as John slips away, the nurse says, "Your husband must have been such a hard-working man to have accumulated all this property."

 The wife replies, "He had a paper route."

EMPLOYMENT HISTORY 

You want to know about my employment history??   Well... 

- My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned - couldn't concentrate. 
- Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the ax.  
- After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited for it, mainly because it was a so-so job. 
- Next I tried working in a muffler factory but that was too exhausting. 
- I attempted to be a deli worker, but any way I sliced it, I couldn't cut the mustard. 
- My best job was being a musician, but eventually I found I wasn't noteworthy. 
- I studied a long time to become a doctor, but I didn't have any patience. 
- I became a professional fisherman, but discovered that I couldn't live on my net income. 
- I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining. 
- I got a job at a zoo feeding giraffes, but I was fired because I wasn't up to it. 
- After many years of trying to find steady work, I finally got a job as a historian until I realized there was no future in it. 
- My last job was working at Starbucks, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind. 
- So, then I retired … and found out I was perfect for the job!

A baker's job is a piece of cake. Of course, if it's a special order, he'll rise to the occasion. It's the yeast he can do. Bakers trade bread recipes on a knead to know basis. But they stop making donuts when they get tired of the hole thing. In a bakery buns play a small roll. Tell a baker his cake has fallen and you'll get a rise out of him. To find out how business is doing, look at the pie chart. Old bakers never die, they just keep on making dough!                             (From: The Vendor)

CHRISTMAS JOKES

 You’d Better be Good

Sarah and her thirteen-year-old sister had been fighting a lot this year. This happens when you combine a headstrong two-year-old, who is sure she is always right, with a young adolescent.
 
Sarah's parents, trying to take advantage of her newfound interest in Santa Claus, reminded the two-year-old that Santa was watching and doesn't like it when children fight. This had little impact.
 
"I'll just have to tell Santa about your misbehavior," the mother said as she picked up the phone and dialed. Sarah's eyes grew big as her mother asked "Mrs. Claus" (really Sarah's aunt; Santa's was busy) if she could put Santa on the line. Sarah's mouth dropped open as Mom described to Santa (Sarah's uncle) how the two-year-old was acting. But, when Mom said that Santa wanted to talk to her, she reluctantly took the phone.
 
Santa, in a deepened voice, explained to her how there would be no presents Christmas morning to children who fought with their sisters. He would be watching, and he expected things to be better from now on.
 
Sarah, now even more wide eyed, solemnly nodded to each of Santa's remarks and silently hung the phone up when he was done. After a long moment, Mom (holding in her chuckles at being so clever) asked, "What did Santa say to you, dear?"
 
In almost a whisper, Sarah sadly but matter-of-factly stated, "Santa said he won't be bringing toys to my sister this year."

 

A Christmas Gift

A guy bought his wife a beautiful diamond ring for Christmas.

After hearing about this extravagant gift, a friend of his said, "I thought she wanted one of those sporty four-wheel-drive vehicles."

"She did," he replied. "But where was I going to find a fake Jeep?"


Christmas Firemen

In a small Southern town there was a "Nativity Scene" that showed   great skill and talent had gone into creating it. One small feature bothered me. The three wise men were wearing firemen's helmets.  Totally unable to come up with a reason or explanation, I left.

At a "Quick Stop" on the edge of town, I asked the lady behind the counter about the helmets. She exploded into a rage, yelling at me, "You Yankees never do read the Bible!" I assured her that I did, but simply couldn't recall anything about firemen in the Bible. She jerked her Bible from behind the counter and ruffled through some pages, and finally jabbed her finger at a passage. Sticking it in my face she said 
"See, it says right here, 'The three wise man came from afar.'"

 

 Running aluminum foil through the paper shredder to make tinsel is discouraged.

 I bought my wife a fridge for Christmas: I can't wait to see her face light up when she opens it.

Doctors tell us there are over seven million people who are overweight.  These, of course, are only round figures.

 

On the Sunday before Christmas a pastor was walking down a street on his way to see a parishioner. However, he wanted to post a parcel urgently so he asked a young boy where he could find the post office.  When the boy had directed him, the minister thanked him and said, 'If you'll come to the Church this evening, you can hear me telling everyone how to get to heaven.' The boy replied, 'I think I'll give your sermon a miss. If you don't even know your way to the post office, how will you lead me to heaven?'

 

It was Christmas and the judge was in a merry mood as he asked the prisoner, “What are you charged with?”
“Doing my Christmas shopping early,” replied the defendant.
“That’s no offense,” said the judge. “How early were you doing this shopping?”
“Before the store opened,” countered the prisoner.

NOTE: I DON’T KNOW THE ORIGINS OF THIS SAD STORY.

Subject: American icon gone, but not forgotten, at age 71 

Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community.

The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71.

Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch. The grave site was piled high with flours.

Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly described Doughboy as a man who never knew how much he was kneaded. Born and bread in Minnesota, Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half- baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times, he still was a crusty old man and was considered a positive roll model for millions.

Doughboy is survived by his wife Play Dough, three children: John Dough, Jane Dough and Dosey Dough, plus they had one in the oven. He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop Tart.

The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.
