Laugh Lines…….
Why don’t traffic lights ever go
swimmimg?
Because they take too long to
change.
Why did the man run around his
bed?
To catch up on his sleep!
What did one toilet say to
another?
You look a bit flushed.
Why did the picture go to jail?
Because it was framed.
What did one wall say to the
other wall?
I’ll meet you at the corner.
What did the paper say to the
pencil?
Write on!
Why do dragons sleep during the
day?
So they can fight knights!
Why can’t your nose be 12 inches
long?
Because then it would be a foot!
What did Cinderella say when
her photos did not show up?
Someday my prints will come!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!!
