A man is bragging about his new hearing aid.
“It’s the best I’ve ever had,” he says. “It cost $3,000.”
His friend asks, “What kind is it?”
He says, “Half past four!”
A man has to drive for a few days to get to his new house.
After a long and tiring drive throughout the night, the driver decides to pull over on the side of the road to take a nap.
A man knocks on the car’s window and this wakes the driver from his sleep. The man asks the driver what time it is. The driver looks at his watch and replies, “It’s 8 AM” and goes back to sleep.
After a while, another man knocks on the car’s window and wakes the driver from his sleep. This man also asks the driver what time it is. The driver replies “It’s 8:05 AM” and goes back to sleep.
Sure enough, after a while, again, another man knocks on the car’s window and asks the same question. The driver, now annoyed, replies, “It’s 8:07 AM”.
He picks up a piece of paper and writes in bold letters “I don’t know what time it is!”, sticks it on the car’s window and goes back to sleep. The driver is again woken from his sleep by a knock on his window.
The man knocking on the window says, “It’s 8:10 AM, you’re welcome!”
Jones came into the office an hour late for the third time in one week and found the boss waiting for him.
“What’s the story this time, Jones?” he asked sarcastically. “Let’s hear a good excuse for a change.”
Jones sighed, “Everything went wrong this morning, boss. My wife decided to drive me to the station. She got ready in ten minutes, but then the drawbridge got stuck. Rather than let you down, I swam across the river – look, my suit’s still damp – ran out to the airport, got a ride on Mr Thompson’s helicopter, landed on top of Radio City Music Hall, and was carried here piggyback by one of the Rockettes.”
“You’ll have to do better than that, Jones,” said the boss, obviously disappointed. “No woman can get ready in ten minutes.”
