A Prairie Home Heads-Up

This week is The Joke Show.

Let's have our own Joke Show. Kindly post a work-safe joke here.

Mine is swiped from the PHC newsletter: Why do grocery store check-out clerks have such a hard time deciding between paper or plastic?

Becase baggers can't be choosers.

Ms. Peach is teaching her 1st grade class and says "Alright, children. Today I'd like each of you to stand up and tell me what one of your parents does for a living."

Little Suzy stands up and says "My Daddy is a fireman."

Little Billy stands up and says "My Mommy is a lawyer."

Then little Tommy stands up and says "My Daddy is a drug-dealer."

Ms. Peach immediately takes little Tommy outside the classroom and says "Tommy, is that true? Is your Daddy really a drug-dealer?"

Little Tommy looks down at his feet and says "Naw, but I was too embarrassed to say he plays starting lineup for the Cubs."

In an alternate universe, Tommy said, "My daddy's dead."

"Oh," the teacher says. "I'm so sorry. Well, what did he do before he died?"

Tommy said, "He went, 'HHHHHHKKAAHUUAAAHHHHH'."
