70 Scribblings

Dianne over at Schmidley’s Scribblings is 70 today.  Many happies, Dianne!

 

First, a joke for you:

John is shopping when he meets his friend Paul outside a jeweller’s shop.  Paul is holding a small, gift-wrapped box.

‘Hi Paul!  What have you got there?’ John asked.

‘It’s the wife’s seventieth birthday tomorrow.  I asked her what she wanted and she said, “Something with lots of diamonds in it,” so I bought her two packs of playing cards.’

Next, a picture.  I Google Imaged ‘Schmidley’ and this is what came up:

It seemed apt.

Finally, a poem:

Dianne is seventy today
She made her years go a long way
She has several degrees
Two gardening knees
A parrot, and husband for play

*

 

Happy birthday, Dianne!

Joke 414

Thanks to Grannymar for this joke.

Morris, an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor to get a physical.

A few days later, the doctor saw Morris walking down the street with a gorgeous young woman on his arm.

A couple of days later, the doctor spoke to Morris and said, ‘You’re really doing great, aren’t you?’

Morris replied, ‘Just doing what you said, Doc: “Get a hot mamma and be cheerful”.’

The doctor said, ‘I didn’t say that…I said, “You’ve got a heart murmur; be careful”.’
