A bachelor met a girl at a party
and fell madly in love with her at
first sight. "You re the girl of my
dreams," he kept telling her dur
ing the party and on the way
home. When they got to her apart
ment he took the key and opened
the door. And there in the middle
of the living room was a dead
horse. The man stared, horrified.
"Well, for goodness sake," said
the girl, "I didn't say I was neat,
did I?"
A spinster was shocked at the
language used by workmen re

"Me and Spike was on the job.
I was up the pole and let the hot
lead fall on Spike right down his
neck. Spike looked up at me and
said, "Really, Harry, you must be
more careful."
He sipped the nectar from her
lips,
