New Contest, No Joke!

It’s time for another contest, yes?  My friend Miiko puts together incredibly neat/wonderful Picture Story Activity Keepsake Books.  She sent me one when James was in the hospital and we all love it.  So anyways, I asked her if we might be able to use one for a giveaway, and she said, “sure!”  

Yippeee! The winner will be given this ebook, Ken and His Tow Truck

Here’s how to win.  Just tell me a joke.  I’ll start with my new favorite, which I totally filched from somebody’s blog – what’s worse is that I cannot remember which blog it was, so if it was yours, SORRY!  

Knock Knock

Who’s there?

Control Freak. Now you say, “Control freak, who”.

I love that.  Ok, the best joke (according to my unpredictable sense of humor) wins.  And just so you know, I generally laugh at things that nobody else thinks is funny (sadly, many of those things are lame senselessities that randomly pop out of my own mouth) – in other words, no dumb joke is too dumb to enter.

In the meantime, while you rack your brain (and/or ask your seven year old for some good material), enjoy this entirely humorous page which was sent to me by somebody who knows me too well.

 And lastly, I was greatly honored with a tag and an award, respectively, from two of my favorite Jr. Bloggers: Bethy  and Mariel .  Thanks girls!   

ok… tell me a joke…

    Does it have to be a joke? Or just something to make you laugh? 'cause I already made you laugh on my blog…by the way, if I did win, I can assure you that your 13 year old daughter does not want the 7 year old Ken's Tow Truck book.

    Oh, and one more thing, I DO NOT want to marry more than 1 missionary. Just because I forgot the little ' doesn't mean anything.

    What do you call a cow who has had a baby?

    De-calf-inated!

    OK, it's lame I know. And I have probably told it to you before seeing as it is the only joke I know. But I am all about effort right now.

    A man was lounging around on a Saturday morning when he heard his doorbell ring. Annoyed, he got up and opened the door. Seeing no one, he looked around, wondering if some kid was playing a trick on him. Finally he noticed a snail on the doorbell button. Annoyed, he flicked the snail off, slammed the door, and resumed his lounging.

    A year later, another Saturday morning, the man's doorbell rang once again. Seeing no one, he glanced at the doorbell and saw the snail, who said to him in a rather insulted way, "What did you do that for?"

    One ship carrying blue paint collided with another ship carrying red paint. The crew is missing and believed to be marooned.

    If I win, I'll donate my book to the next taker. I don't think my teenagers would fully appreciate it. 🙂 Karen (bensrib)

    OK, my husband did this to me, then we cracked ourselves up trying it out on our kids.

    One night I was blathering on and on to my husband about some VERY crucial issue (which I'm POSITIVE he was mesmerized by.) It went something like this:

    ME: Blah blah blah. Blah didah dah. So what do you think I should do?

    HIM: Hmmmm…Sounds like a case of "Updog" to me.

    ME: HUH?!

    HIM: Yep, It's definitely "Updog".

    ME: What is" Updog"?

    HIM: Not much. What's up with you, DAWG!!!

    Funniest Joke

    Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy takes out his phone and calls the emergency services.

    He gasps: "My friend is dead! What can I do?" The operator says: "Calm down, I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There is a silence, then a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says: "OK, now what?"

    I thought, "This is a great contest!….I'm horrible at jokes" I love them…I just can't ever remember any. I wanted to submit something though, so I googled "world's funniest joke" and this is what it gave me 🙂 Completely unoriginal…I know. I'd ask my boys for one…they're always keeping me in stitches (or at least trying), but they're all camping with their daddy. When they get home, I'm going to tell them this joke…they'll get a kick out of it…if I can only remember it! 🙂

    Knock Knock—

    "Come in!"

    That's the quickest way to nip a knock-knock joke in the bud! I do love love your joke though, LOL!

    On the way to the farm this week we had a little one reading jokes to us. Makes the hour fly by as we travel. Anyway, I missed the contest, but will be sending you a really funny one if I can remember it.

    love,

    I'm a little late….

    for the contest, but had to share anyway as I'm getting caught up on my reading of "Jen's blog entries"…

    Question: What do you get when you play a country music song backwards?

    Answer: You get your wife back, your dog back, your truck back, your job back, etc.

    Yep, that's it…that's my favorite joke and I tell it all the time.
