Webside HUMOUR
Quick thinker

A professor was one day walking along a very narrow street when he came face to face with a rival. The street was too narrow for two to pass. The rival, pulling himself up to his full height, said haughtily: "I never make way for fools!"

Smiling, the professor stepped aside and said, "I always do."

Ice and rocks

A woman on her first visit to Yellowstone National Park said to her guide, "Look at all those big rocks. Wherever did they come from?"

"The glaciers brought them down," said the guide.

"But where are the glaciers?" "The glaciers," said the guide in a weary voice, "have gone back for more rocks."

Fresh evidence

The day after a verdict had been entered against his client, the lawyer rushes to the judge’s chambers, demanding that the case be reopened.

"I have new evidence that makes a huge difference in my client’s defence."

"What new evidence could you have?"

"I’ve learned that my client still has $10,000 that I didn’t know about."

Honest prayer

A grandfather was walking past his young granddaughter’s room one night when he saw her kneeling beside her bed, with head bowed and hands folded, repeating the alphabet.

"What are you doing?" he asked her. She explained, "I’m saying my prayers, but I couldn’t think of just what I wanted to say. So I’m just saying all the letters of the alphabet, and God can put them together however he thinks best."
