An old gardener was somewhat bored
by the persistent questions of a towns
man staying at the local hotel. One day
the visitor found his victim busy plant
ing trees and immediately asked: “What
kind of trees are you planting?”
“Wooden ones,” came the astonish
ing reply.
A hunter was showing off his collec
tion of trophies to a group of visitors.
He was rapturously explaining how he
acquired the various exhibits. “See that
elephant?” he said. “I shot it in my
pajamas.”
“My gosh,” murmured the surprised
young lady, “how did it get there?”
Frank: Why do you say that scar on
your forehead is a birthmark? It looks
more like an old wound.
Jack: It is. You see, I accidentally
got into the wrong berth.
