** An elderly couple return to a Mercedes dealership to find the salesman had just sold the car they were interested in to a beautiful, leggy, busty blonde. “I thought you said that you would hold that car till we raised the $75,000 asking price,” said the old man. “Yet I just heard you closed the deal for $65,000 to that lovely young lady there. You insisted there could be no discount on this model.” “Well, what can I tell you? She had the ready cash and just look at her, how could I resist?” replied the grinning salesman. Just then the young woman approached the old folks and handed them the keys. “There you go,” she said. “I told you I could get this joker to drop the price. See you later, grandpa.”  -- Moral of the story: Never mess with the elderly.

** Four worms were placed in four separate test tubes: 1^st in beer, 2^nd in wine, 3^rd in whiskey, and the 4^th in mineral water. The next day the teacher showed the results: 1^st worm in beer, dead. 2^nd worm in wine, dead. 3^rd worm in whiskey, dead. 4^th worm in mineral water, alive and healthy. The teacher asks the class: “What did we learn from this experiment?” One of the children responds: “Whoever drinks beer, wine, or whiskey, does not have worms.”

** I picked up a hitchhiker last night. He seemed surprised that I’d pick up a stranger and asked, “Thanks, but why would you pick me up? How do you know I’m not a serial killer?” I told him the chances of two serial killers being in one car would be astronomical.

A little boy tells his preschool teacher that he found a dead cat. “How did you know it was dead?” asks the teacher. “Because I pissed in its ear, and it didn’t move,” said the boy. “YOU DID WHAT?!” shrieks the teacher. “You know,” explains the boy, “I leaned over and went Psssst in its ear, and it didn’t move!”
