Famous name

A tourist in London climbed into a cab and noticed by the licence that his cab driver’s name was Winston Churchill. Trying to make a conversation, he said, "I see your name is Winston Churchill."

The driver simply said, "Right. That’s my moniker."

The passenger, not willing to give up yet on some banter, said, "That’s a pretty famous name."

The driver responded, "As well it should be, too. I’ve been driving a cab here for more than 40 years."

A slightly unsure witness to a car crash kept saying things like, "I think the light was yellow," or, "I think it was still raining."

The cross-examining lawyer interrupted, saying derisively, "We don’t care what you think. What do you know?"

The harried witness paused for a moment and then replied,

"Then I may as well leave the witness stand. Since I’m not a lawyer, I can’t talk without thinking."

After a quarrel, a wife said to her husband, "You know, I was a fool when I married you".

The husband replied, "Yes dear, but I was in love and didn’t notice."

A rabbi was talking to precocious six-year-old boy.

"So, you tell me that your mother says your prayers for you each night. That’s very commendable. What does she actually say?"

The little boy replied, "Thank God he’s in bed!"

Wife: "What will you give me if I climb the great Mount Everest"?

Husband: "A lovely push"
