Dad, Jake leaned over and whispered. I think I need a new girlfriend.

"Oh? Have someone in mind?"

Yes, her name is Frencesca.

We were talking on the way to school, and the topic of Greece came up. I mentioned that I'd studied there was I was in college, that I took classes there and that I'd lived in an apartment. His reply:

*gasp* You lived in an APARTMENT!?! Then . . . Grandma Kitten lives in an apartment. Is it the same one?

A few months ago, we were telling knock knock jokes. I told the following:
Knock knock!
Who's there?
Little old lady.
Little old lady who?
I didn't know you could yodel!

Monkey and Goldilocks both got a huge kick out of it. The other day, Jakie improved upon the joke:

Knock knock!
Who's there?
Little old lady who.
Little old lady who who?
I didn't know you were an owl that could yodel!

*Laugh*



 


73.  What's the deal?ID #644062 
Posted: 4-6-2009 @ 12:59 pm EDT 

Mom, I think all of the teachers at the JCC are named "Miss" because it's at the front of all of their names. And I think they're all boys . . . I mean GIRLS and they all have Miss as the first part of their names.

How bizarre . . . must be a prerequisite to working there? *shrugs*

*Laugh*


 


72.  Should I get out the toolbox?ID #643408 
Posted: 4-2-2009 @ 8:01 am EDT 

Last night Jakie was complaining that his toes were itching . . . so he pulled off his sock.

The problem IS, the bottoms of my toes are all screwed up and ripped!
