          Carpenter working on the job, struggling with a difficult detail, when another tradesman walks in with a armload of wire and tools. Carpenter: "Hey, are you the electrician? Can you get these shorts out of my azz?"

            A preacher, a  carpenter, and a contractor all showed up at the Pearly Gates together.  St. Peter met them there, and said, "Good.  Welcome.  I've got an addition I've been meaning to get done on God's guest house.  God will be paying the bill, but I am handling everything.  Can you each give me bids?"

            The preacher, who had worked on various construction projects for his flock and the needy for many years, looked at the plans and said, "I'll do this job for free and pay for the $5,000 that I estimate the materials to cost out of my own pocket, since I've never received a dime for any of my previous work.

            St. Peter nodded and smiled, then looked at the carpenter.  The carpenter looked at the plans and said, "If the materials are going to cost $5,000, I'll do it for $5,000 plus a very small labor and overhead charge of $500."

            St. Peter then looked at the contractor.  The contractor didn't even look at the plans, and said, "$15,500."  St. Peter sputtered, "$15,500?!?!  What for?"

            The contractor replied, $5,000 for the materials, $500 to hire the carpenter and the preacher, $5,000 for me, and $5,000 kickback to you."

    An elderly Floridian called 911 on her cell phone to report that her car has been broken into. She is hysterical as she explains h! er situation to the dispatcher: "They've stolen the stereo, the steering wheel, the brake pedal and even the accelerator!" she cried. The dispatcher said, "Stay calm. An officer is on the way."
    A few minutes later, the officer radios in.
    "Disregard." He says. "She got in the back-seat by mistake."
    _________________________________________________

    FAMILY
    Three sisters ages 92, 94 and 96 live in a house together. One night the 96 year old draws a bath. She puts her foot in and pauses. She yells to the other sisters, "Was I getting in or out of the bath?"
    The 94 year old yells back, "I don't know. I'll come up and see." She
    starts up the stairs and pauses "Was I going up the stairs or down?"
    The 92 year old is sitting at the kitchen table having tea listening to
    her sisters. She shakes her head and says, "I sure hope I never get that forgetful, knock on wood."
    She then yells, "I'll come up and help both of you as soon as I see who's at the door."
    __________________________________________________

    "I CAN HEAR JUST FINE!"
    Three retirees, each with a hearing loss, were playing golf one fine March day. One remarked to the other, "Windy, isn't it?"
    "No," the second man replied, "it's Thursday."
    And the third man chimed in, "So am I. Let's have a beer."
    ____________________________________________________

    Old Age
    A little old lady was running up and down the halls in a nursing home. As she walked, she would flip up the hem of her nightgown and say "Supersex."
    She walked up to an elderly man in a wheelchair. Flipping her gown at him, she said, "Supersex." He sat silently for a moment or two and finally answered, "I'll take the soup.

    _________________________________________________
    ROMANCE
    An older couple were lying in bed one night. The husband was falling
    asleep but the wife was in a romantic mood and wanted to talk. She said :
    "You used to hold my hand when we were courting."
    Wearily he reached across, held her hand for a second and tried to get back to sleep.
    A few moments later she said: "Then you used to kiss me. "Mildly
    irritated, he reached across, gave her a peck on the cheek and settled down to sleep.
    Thirty seconds later she said: "Then you used to bite my neck."
    Angrily, he threw back the bed clothes and got out of bed. "Where are you going?" she asked. "To get my teeth!"
    __________________________________________________
    DOWN AT THE RETIREMENT CENTER
    80-year ol d Betsy bursts into the rec room at the retirement home. She holds her clenched fist in the air and announces, "Anyone who can guess what's in my hand can have sex with me tonight!!"
    An elderly gentleman in the rear shouts out, "An elephant?"
    Betsy thinks a minute and says, "Close enough."
    ____________________________________________________
    OLD FRIENDS
    Two elderly ladies had been friends for many decades. Over the years, they had shared all kinds of activities and adventures.
    Lately, their activities had been limited to meeting a few times a week to play cards. One day, they were playing cards when one looked at the other and said, "Now don't get mad at me ... I know we've been friends for a long time ...but I just can't think of your name! I've thought and thought, but I can't remember it.  Please tell me what your name is."
    Her friend glared at her. For at  least three minutes she just stared and glared at her.  Finally she said, "How soon do you need to know?"
    ____________________________________________________
    SENIOR DRIVING
    As a senior citizen was driving down the freeway, his car phone rang.
    Answering, he heard his wife's voice urgently warning him, "Herman, I just heard on the news that there's a car going the wrong way on Interstate 77.
    Please be careful!"
    "Heck," said Herman, "It's not just one car. It's hundreds of them!"
    ____________________________________________________
    DRIVING
    Two elderly women were out driving in a large car - both could barely see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along, they came to an intersection.! The stoplight was red, but they just went on through. The woman in the passenger seat thought to herself "I must be losing it. I could have sworn we just went through a red light."
    After a few more minutes, they came to another intersection and the light was red again. Again, they went right through. The woman in the passenger seat was almost sure that the light had been red but was really concerned that she was losing it. She was getting nervous .
    At the next intersection, sure enough, the light was red and t hey went on through. So, she turned to the other woman and said, "Mildred, did you know that we just ran through three red lights in a row? You could have killed us both!"
    Mildred turned to her and said, "Oh my. Am I driving?"
