$100 Porsche

A man was reading the paper when an ad caught his eye:
$100 Porsche! New! The man thought that it was very unusual to sell a Porsche for $100, and he thought it might be a joke or a typo. He soon decided it was worth a shot. He went to the lady's house and sure enough, she had an almost brand new Porsche.

"Wow!" the man said. "Can I take it for a test drive?" Unlike what he expected, the man found that the car ran perfectly and took it back to the lady's house.

"Why are you selling me this great Porsche for only $100?"

"My husband just ran off with his secretary, and he told me I could have the house and the furniture as long as I sold his Porsche and sent him the money."



Quick Wit:

The Signalman

Tom is applying for a job as a signalman for the local
railroad and is told to meet the inspector at the signal
box.

The inspector decides to give Tom a pop quiz, asking: "What
would you do if you realized that two trains were heading
towards each other on the same track?"

Tom says: "I would switch one train to another track."

"What if the lever broke?" asks the inspector.

"Then I'd run down to the tracks and use the manual lever
down there," answers Tom.

"What if that had been struck by lightning?" challenges the
inspector.

"Then," Tom continued, "I'd run back up here and use the
phone to call the next signal box."

"What if the phone was busy?"

"In that case," Tom argued, "I'd run to the street level and
use the public phone near the station."

"What if that had been vandalized?"

"Oh well," said Tom, "in that case I would run into town and
get my Uncle Leo."

This puzzled the inspector, so he asked, "Why would you do
that?"

"Because he's never seen a train crash."


The Differences Between Men and Women

  SUCCESS: 
  A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. 
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

  STYLE:
  Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed. 
Women somehow deteriorate during the night.

  MONEY MANAGEMENT:
  A man is a person who will pay two dollars for a one dollar item he wants. 
A woman will pay one dollar for a two dollar item that she  doesn't want.

  HAPPINESS:
  To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a  little. 
To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.

MARRIAGE EXPECTATIONS:
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't. 
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change and she does.

MARRIAGE DECISIONS:
 Men marry because they are tired. 
Women marry because they are  curious. 
Both are disappointed.

  MARRIAGE AND THE  FUTURE:                 
  A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband. 
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.

  MEMORIES:
  A woman will always cherish the memory of the man who wanted to marry  her. 
A man cherishes the memory of the woman who he didn't marry.

  UNDERSTANDING WOMEN:
  There are two times  when a man doesn't  understand a woman:  before marriage  and after marriage. 

  WHAT A WOMAN WANTS: 
  Only two things  are necessary to  keep one's wife happy: 
    One is to let her  think she is having  her own way.. 
  The other is to let  her have it.

  LONGEVITY: 
  Married men live longer than single men, but married men are a lot more willing to die.

  MISTAKES:
  Any married man should forget his mistakes - no use two people remembering the same thing.

  THE BATTLE:
  A woman always has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.
