Now something from Sally.
Drinking to excess is never recommended but sometimes people go a little too far..
The other night I was invited out for a night with “the girls.” I told my husband that I would be home by midnight. “I promise!” Well, the hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easy.
Around 3 a.m., a bit blitzed, I headed for home. Just as I got in the door, the cuckoo clock in the hall started up and cuckooed 3 times. Quickly realizing my husband would probably wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times. I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick-witted solution (even when totally smashed), in order to escape a possible conflict with him.
The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, and I told him midnight. He didn’t seem disturbed at all. (Whew! Got away with that one!). Then he said, “We need a new cuckoo clock.” When I asked him why, he said, “Well, last night our clock cuckooed 3 times, then said, “Oh, crap,” cuckooed 4 more times, cleared its throat, cuckooed another 3 times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the cat and burped.”

So a guy walks into a bar one day and he can’t believe his eyes. There, in the corner, there’s this one-foot-tall man, in a little tuxedo, playing a tiny grand piano.
So the guy asks the bartender, “Where’d he come from?”
And the bartender’s, like, “There’s a genie in the men’s room who grants wishes.”
So the guy runs into the men’s room and, sure enough, there’s this genie. And the genie’s, like, “Your wish is my command.” So the guy’s, like, “O.K., I wish for world peace.” And there’s this big cloud of smoke—and then the room fills up with geese.
So the guy walks out of the men’s room and he’s, like, “Hey, bartender, I think your genie might be hard of hearing.”
And the bartender’s, like, “No kidding. You think I wished for a twelve-inch pianist?”
Thanks for dropping by and we hope you are leaving with a smile on your face…Debby and Sally.
Debby, I love the flying raisins! My mother disliked dried fruit because it reminded her of flies.
And the hard of hearing genie is great, Sally. Thank you for the laughs once again.

Some real stars here! I lived in Eccles as a child and an Eccles cake is a small pastry filled with currants. My father told me once that it was a fly cemetery. I stil can’t quite bring myself to eat one. I’m still chuckling about the genie.

Funny stuff. The last one reminded me of my dog. She’s a 70 pound lab/border collie mix that seems to sleep most of the day, but as soon as an insect flies around her head, she turns into a ninja and snaps it out of existence like a bolt of lightning.
