A patient met his doctor on the street, and after exchanging, "Hello, how are you?" and all that, the doctor said, "Are you OK?" And the patient said, "Yes, you were right. You told me that you would put me on my feet and that I would be walking again in no time, and you were right." So the doctor said, "See? I told you. Since when have you been walking?" The patient answered, "Since I paid your bill and had to sell my car!"

There was a couple who had invited a friend to their home for dinner, but they were in short supply of one of their favorite foods. So the wife said to the husband, "After your friend has finished two pieces, don't ask him to have anymore, OK?" And the husband said, "OK." But when the friend finished the two pieces of their favorite food, the husband forgot, and as usual said, "Oh, please, have some more. I'll go bring some from the kitchen." So the wife looked very, very stressed. And then the friend said, "No, no, no." But the husband still insisted, and the wife looked even more stressed. Then the guest refused even more firmly, and in a hurry said, "No, no, no!" So later when the guest had gone home, the wife was very mad at the husband and scolded him, saying, "How could you do that? How could you do that? I told you already after two pieces you should not have offered him any more, but you kept asking him. You should have told him there was no more left." And the husband said, "I'm sorry, I really forgot about it." And the wife replied, "Forgot about it! But I kicked you under the table. You should have known!" And the husband said, "No, it wasn't me you kicked. It was our poor friend!"

A man kept praying to God to win the lotto. Every week he prayed to win the lotto, but many years passed and he never won the lotto.

So God asked him, "Did you ever buy a lotto ticket?" And the man said, "No."

The phone rang, and the teacher answered it, saying, "Hello, may I help you?" A voice said from the other end, "Is this Mr. Hsieh? I would like to inform you that Tony cannot come to school today." The teacher asked, "Who is this, please?" "This is my father speaking, of course," came the answer.

There was a herd of cows in the field, and two of the cows were talking together. Cow A said to Cow B, "Wow, it really makes me worry, all this mad cow disease news going on. I don't know if we are safe, if it's already here and if we're OK or not. Do you know of any sign, to know if we get mad cow disease?" And the other cow said, "I have no idea, really, but I think it's still far away, no?" So the third cow nearby, Cow C, chipped in and said, "Oh, that shouldn't worry us ducks, you know!"
