A momma mole, papa mole, and baby mole lived in a hole outside of a farmhouse in the country. One day, the papa mole poked his head out of the hole and said, “Mmmmmm, I smell hotdogs!” The momma mole poked her head outside of the hole and said, “Mmmmm, I smell pancakes!” The baby mole tried to poke his head out of the hole but couldn’t get passed the two bigger moles. Finally giving up, he said, “The only thing I can smell is molasses.” ---

YAY! I get to tell nun jokes! How do you get rid of a nun’s hiccups? Tell her she’s pregnant! What is the definition of innocence? A nun working in a condom factory thinking she’s making sleeping bags for mice. What do you call a nun who walks in her sleep? A roaming Catholic. Sister Catherine is asking all the Catholic school children in fourth grade what they want to be when they grow up. Little Sheila says: “When I grow up, I want to be a prostitute!” Sister Catherine’s eyes grow wide and she barks: “What did you say?” “A prostitute!” Sheila repeats. Sister Catherine breathes a sight of relief and says: “Thank God! I thought you said a Protestant” ---

Piece of String walks into a bar. “I’d like a beer, please!” Bartender looks him over. “We don’t serve your kind here. Get out!” Piece of String sadly slumps out. An hour later: Piece of String walks into a bar. “I’d like a beer, please!” Bartender looks at him. “I already told you- we don’t serve your kind here. Get out!” Piece of String, dejected, leaves. An hour later, Piece of String has an idea. He tied himself up, tears the string at each end of himself, and walks back in. “I’d like a beer, please!” Bartender looks at him. “Aren’t you that piece of string I already kicked out of here twice tonight!?!?!?” Piece of String says “No, I’m a frayed knot!” ---

A man comes to his Rabbi for guidance. “Rabbi” he says, “I don’t know what to do, my son has converted to Christianity!” "You too! " the Rabbi exclaims, “My son, he too converted to Christianity. Let us talk to the Great Rebbe.” They both go to see the Rebbe (old and wise Rabbi). “Rebbe” They say, “our sons converted to Christianity, what shall we do?” “You too!” The Rebbe exclaims, “My son, he too converted to Chritianity. We must pray to G-d for wisdom.” “O King of the Universe” The men prayed. “Our sons, they converted to Christianity!” And G-d replied, “You too!”… ;j My dad’s favorite joke, and his only funny one.

One October day, my daughter came home from 3rd grade w/ this one. I don’t think that she had any idea what it meant, just that it made people laugh. My wife tried to look shocked, but it only last about three seconds before she had to laugh. Why don’t witches have babies? Because their husbands have halloweenies! ---
