A friend hosted a dinner party for people from work, and
everyone was encouraged to bring their children.
All during the sit-down dinner
one co-worker's four-year-old
boy stared at the man sitting across from him. The little
fella
hardly ate a bite, so intent was his gaze...
The gent in question checked his tie,
felt his face for
food, patted his hair in place, but nothing stopped the little
guy
from staring at him. He tried his best to just ignore him
but finally it was too much for him.
He
asked him, "Why are you staring at me?"
Everyone at the table had noticed his behavior
and the table
went quiet for his response.
The little boy
said, "I just want to you do it..."
"Do What?!" came the exasperated reply
"I
want to see how you drink like a fish!"

A
housewife with three young children was getting dinner
ready when the phone rang. The six-year-old picked
it up
and said, "Hi, Daddy!" and she began telling him about her
day.
She
then passed the phone to her younger brother and sister
as was the custom whenever Daddy called from
work.
When it was finally the wife's turn to talk she took the
receiver
and said, "Hi, hon."
"Whew! Thank goodness, lady," the voice on the other end
replied.
"I just called to tell you that you can pick your
tennis racket up anytime!"

our bodies.
Mine isn't all that communicative but I heard from it
the other day
after I said, "Body, how'd you like to
go to the six o'clock class in vigorous toning?" Clear
as
a bell my body said, "Listen up! Do it and die."

your closet for a while
and it shrinks two sizes!
Skinny
people irritate me! Especially when they say things
like, "You know sometimes I just forget to eat."

ve forgotten my address, my mother's maiden name, and my

special kind of stupid to forget to eat.
