**A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, watching his wife, who was looking at herself in the mirror. Since her birthday was not far off he asked what she’d like to have for her birthday. I’d like to be eight again, she replied, still looking in the mirror. On the morning of her birthday, he arose early, made her a nice big bowl of Coco Pops, and took her to Adventure World theme park. What a day! He put her on every ride in the park; the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Roller Coaster, everything there was. Five hours later they staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling and her stomach felt upside down. He then took her to a McDonald’s where he ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a chocolate shake. Then it was off to a movie, popcorn, a soda pop, and her favorite candy, M&M’s. What a fabulous adventure! Finally she wobbled home with her husband and collapsed into bed exhausted. He leaned over his wife with a big smile and lovingly asked, “Well Dear, what was it like being eight again?” Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed. “I meant my dress size, you idiot!!!"

**A woman brings a very limp duck into a veterinary surgeon. As she lays her beloved pet duck on the table, the vet puts his stethoscope to the bird’s chest and listens carefully. A moment later the vet shakes his head and says sadly, “I’m sorry mam, but your duck, Cuddles, has passed away.” The woman becomes quite distressed and begins to cry. “Are you sure?” she says with tears flooding from her eyes. “Yes mam, I am sure” the vet responds, “Your duck is definitely dead.” “But how can you be so sure?” the woman protests. “I mean, you haven’t done any testing on him or anything have you? Perhaps he’s just stunned or in a coma or something.” The vet rolls his eyes, then turns around and leaves the room. A few minutes later he returns with a black Labrador Retriever. As the duck’s owner looks on in amazement, the Labrador stands on his hind legs, puts his front paws on the examination table and sniffs around the duck from top to bottom. He then looks up at the vet with sad eyes and shakes his head. The vet pats the dog on the head and takes it out of the room. A few minutes later the vet returns with a cat. The cat jumps on the table and delicately sniffs at the bird from it’s head to it’s feet. After a moment the cat looks up, shakes it’s head, meows softly and strolls out of the room. The vet looks at the woman and says, “Look mam I’m really sorry, but as I said before, this is most definitely a duck that is no longer of this world. Your duck is dead.” The vet turns to his computer terminal, hits a few keys and produces a bill, which he hands to the woman. The duck’s owner, still in shock, looks at the bill and see’s it is $150. “$150 just to tell me my duck is dead!” she shrieks with incredulity. The vet shrugs his shoulders and says, “I’m sorry mam. If you’d taken my word for it, the bill would have been $20. However with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan, it’s now $150.

We had a rather large sale today. The market was generally lower with a limited demand on average and poor grade alfalfa and grass and a big demand for the better grade of alfalfa and grass.
**Several men were in the locker room of the gym when a cell phone on a bench rang and a man put it on speaker and begins to talk. Everyone else in the room stopped to listen. Man: “ Hello!” Woman: “Hi Honey, it’s me. Are you at the club?” Man: “Yes.” Woman: “I’m at the shops now and found this beautiful leather coat. It’s only $2,000; is it ok if I buy it?” Man: “Sure, go ahead if you like it that much.” Woman: “I also stopped by the Lexus dealership and saw the new models. I saw one I really liked.” Man: “How much?” Woman: “$90,000.” Man: “Ok, but for that price I want it with all the options.” Woman: “Great! Oh, and one more thing. I was just talking to Janie and found out that the house I wanted last year is back on the market. They’re asking $980,000 for it.” Man: “Well, then go ahead and make an offer of $900,000. They’ll probably take it. If not, we can go the extra eighty-thousand if it’s what you really want.” Woman: “Ok. I’ll see you later! I love you so much!” Man: “I love you too.” The man hung up. The other men in the locker room were staring at him in astonishment, mouths open wide. He turned and asked, “ Anyone know whose phone this is?”
