H: Honey, anyone who fits into your clothes is not starving.

A man checked into a hotel room. There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an e-mail to his wife. He accidentally typed in the wrong email address, and without realizing he sent it to a widow that had just returned home from her husband*s funeral. The widow decided to check her email expecting condolence messages from relatives and friends. After reading the first message, she fainted. The son rushed into the room and found his mother on the floor and the computer opened to an email which read: *To my loving wife: I know you are surprised to hear from me. They have computers here and we are allowed to send emails to our loved ones. I*ve just been checked in. How are you and the kids? This place is really nice, but I am lonely here. I have made the necessary arrangements for your arrival tomorrow. I*m expecting you darling. Can*t wait to see you.*

Jack, a handsome man, walked into a sports bar around 9:58 pm. He sat down next to this blonde at the bar
and stared up at the TV as the 10:00 news came on. The news crew was covering a story of a man on a ledge
of a large building preparing to jump. The blonde looked at Jack and said, *Do you think he*ll jump?*
Jack: You know what, I bet he will. Blonde: Well, I bet he won*t Jack placed $30 on the bar and said,
*You*re on!* Just as the blonde placed her money on the bar, the guy did a swan dive off of the building,
falling to his death. The blonde was very upset and handed her $30 to Jack saying, *Fair is fair...
Here is your money.* Jack replied, *I can*t take your money, I saw this earlier on the 5 o*clock news and I
knew he would jump.* The blonde replies, *I did too, but I didn*t think he would do it again.* Jack took the money..
