Church Social
Our minister announced that admission to a church social event would
be six dollars per person.
"However, if you're over 65," he said, "the price will be only $5.50."
From the back of the congregation, a woman's voice rang out, "Do you
really think I'd give you that information for only fifty cents?"

Slow, Really Slow...
A young man was a slow worker and found it difficult to hold down a
job. After a visit to the employment office, he was offered work at
the local zoo. When he arrived for his first day, the keeper, aware of
his reputation, told him to take care of the tortoise section.
Later, the keeper dropped by to see how the young man was doing and
found him standing by an empty enclosure with the gate open.
"Where are the tortoises?" he asked.
"I can't believe it," said the new employee, "I just opened the door
and whooooosh, they were gone!"
