My son has a shirt that says “I can’t go to sleep. The clowns will eat me.”

So I cheered him up with this one –

Two cannibals are eating a clown.  
Cannibal # 1 says to cannibal #2: “Does this taste funny?”

Driving down the road one day a man notices in his rear-view mirror a stunning blonde woman driving the care behind, and is so distrated that he doesn’t see the hapless bunny rabbit that hopped in front of his car until it’s too late.

Feeling horrible, he pulls over and gets out of his car to examine to rabit, maybe there’s some hope. But it’s grade-A roadkill, flat as a pancake on the asphalt - ain’t no hope for this rabbit.

As he turns to get back in his car he notices the blonde has pulled up behind him, “oh no!” he thinks, “she’ll think I’m a totally jerk for killing the poor, defeneless bunny! What an awful way to meet a woman!”

The stunning blonde saunters over to inspect the rabbit, ponders it for awhile and then exclaims, “I have just the thing!” and goes back to rummage around in her trunk before emerging with a bottle. Speechless, the man watches as she takes the top of the bottle and dumps the liquid inside onto the flattened bunny.

Within moments the rabbit begins to inflate to it’s normal size, peels itself off the pavement, and then shakes itself off. The blonde merely smiles as the man watches the rabbit inexplicably hop a few feet, turn back to them, and then wave!

The rabbit goes on hopping a few feet, then stopping to turn back and wave with one paw until it’s out of sight. Finally, the man turns to the blonde and asks, “what in the world was in that bottle?”

“It’s hair restorer, with permanent wave!”

What did the blonde say when she looked into the box of Cheerios?

“Oh look donut seeds!”  
I hope that at least made you smile 😉
