    What’s black and white and black and white and black and white and red all over?

  3. On an overnight stay at a friend’s house unsupervised we called the local bowling alleys and asked if they had 12 pound balls.

    If they answered yes we asked if it made it hard to walk.

  4. Variations on that were to call the bowling alley from an inside payphone in the bowling alley to ask them to page Ima Fagg, Ima Hogg or Bertha Butt while looking to and listening to see if they would do it. But that was a teenage prank call.

  5. Woman comes in to drugstore,
    and looks and looks and looks.
    Finally goes to the pharmacist
    and asked, “do you have cotton balls?”

  6. A tourist lands in Hawaii.

    He sees a local and asks, “Hey, how do you pronounce this state? Is it “Hawaii” or “Havaii?”

    Guy says, “It’s “Havaii.”

    “Okay. Thanks.”

    “You’re velcome.”

    (courtesy of Jackie Mason on Ed Sullivan. I was 8 and laughed hard.)

  7. Second oldest joke I remember:

    A guy rushes into a suit store that needed a suit ASAP and eyeballs the displayed suit in the front window,

    “Hey! Can I try that suit on in the window?”

    Sir, we have dressing rooms for that.

  8. The young man asks the priest if it was true that God created everything in the Universe.

    Yes he did.

    “Even PMS”

    “Yes my son, even PMS.” replied the priest.

    The young man thought for a minute then said, “Well, I guess that’s true because I read in the Bible that Mary rode Joseph’s A$$ all the way to Bethlehem.”

    If you get to Hell before me, please try to save me a window seat.

    First joke I remember? Heck, I can barely remember what I had for breakfast….but then, I’m not runnin the Country. Well, neither is Joe so there’s that.

  9. On tv, a Jewish comic was telling a joke about visiting Hawaii with his wife. They were wondering how the locals pronounce the name of the state: “Hawaii” or “Havaii” (note the “v”). They approached a local and asked: “Sir, is your land’s name pronounced “Hawaii” or “Havaii”. The local said: “Havaii.” The tourist said” “Thank you.” The Hawaiian local said: “You’re velcome.”

  10. First joke I remember wasn’t really a joke joke:

    “You’re eyes are bigger than your belly!”

    I don’t think I understood that wise crack until I was in my twenties. And that’s why I can neither remember jokes nor tell them with any success. But I do love good jokes — even dad jokes.

  13. Any Johnny jokes were the first I can remember.
    The teacher was asking everyone to give a word to each letter of the alphabet she started with with A and Johnny was waving his hand but she new she couldn’t call on him she knew he would spell ass or some other foul word, so she kept on going and all the time Johnny was waving his hand for each letter.
    Finally she got to the letter R and she new that there was no cuss word that started with R so she called on him, Johnny it is your turn and he said Rats, with cocks this long.

  15. We used to come up to someone and say:
    “How Long is a Chinaman”
    They’d think about it for moment,
    then tell them “it’s not a question”

    Which made them think even harder!
