When Pop’s son was born, he had no arms, no legs, no torso, just a head. Nevertheless, he was a fine boy. Pop was proud of him. On his twenty-first birthday, Pop carried his son, the Head, into the bar, set the Head up on the bar and called out for the bartender to bring him a shot of his finest whiskey. “I wouldn’t do that!” said the bartender.
“”Bring’em a whiskey. It’s his birthday!” He propped the Head up , tossed the whiskey back, and the Head popped out two arms! Pop was thrilled! “Get him another one!” ”
“No” said the bartender. “Don’t do it.”
“Bring him another one!” The bartender brought him another, against his best judgment. The Head drinks and Boom! He has two legs. He’s a perfect specimen. The bar rors with applause!
Pop is thrilled! He hugs his boy and says, “Come on, son. Let’s go across the street and I’ll buy you a suit of clothes! We’re going out to paint the town!”
“No! No!” dries the bartender,””Don’t don’t do that!”
They ignored him. As they crossed the street, they were run over by a truck and smashed to smithereens! “Happens every time,” said the bartender. “Should’ve quit while they were a head.”
wow!))))))

lol :) Excellent response! You’ve turned a chuckle into a laugh. I take it you granddaughter has left your company for the day for you to be so bold, and is not a fellow reader of your Blog? Or maybe not and you are as delightfully teasing with every member of the family lol! It must be tremendous fun when you all get together and enjoy each others company :) A house built on love and laughter is sure to be a welcoming home. How wonderful.

Well, my little one is only six weeks old. She and ny ten year old grandson are a reat part of the reason I started to write. There’s the distinct possibility I may follow in the footsteps of my ancestors and need to pass these stories on to the younger ones. I hope to get a good many down. I feel like I know my forbears.

Hey Linda,
I sincerely hope you are successful in fulfilling your new found role as family archivist and scribe. You sound very motivated to do so :)
I imagine it a duty you relish and savour at every twist and turn. I hope in turn either of the children will take up the mantle and continue your great work. I think it incredibly important in so many wonderful ways to keep alive these fascinating tales and the characters who once embodied them.

Hey Linda, or should I say good evening chuckle lol :)
How are you?
As always your post is perfectly timed for my return home from the daily grind. And there is nothing better today than a giggle to set the tone for the remainder of the evening. :) I may have heard this joke before, but it’s the way you tell ’em that brings a smile.
Personally I was hoping WP would develop a chuckleometer! :)
Hoping all’s well with y’all in your little slice of southern heaven .
Namaste

The best jokes have a surprise ending that’s generally not revealed until the last sentence. We laugh harder when we don’t see it coming.
