Seven Delicious Puns
1) Two Eskimos were fishing in a kayak. It was
very cold. They lit a fire in their little
boat, and it promptly sank. The moral? You
can't have your kayak and heat it, too.
2) A three-legged dog walked into a saloon in
the Old West. He bellied up to the bar and
announced, "I'm looking for the man who shot
my paw."
3) Two boll weevils grew up in South Carolina.
The older one went to Hollywood and became a
famous movie star. The younger one stayed behind in the cotton fields, and never amounted to much. He was known as the lesser
of two weevils.
4) A devout Buddhist refused the novacaine which his dentist offered to dull the pain of
root-canal surgery. Why? He wanted to transcend dental medication.
5) A large group of chess enthusiasts checked
into a hotel just before a large convention.
After dinner, they congregated in the lobby,
discussing their recent tournament victories.
The hotel manager finally asked them to disperse. "But why?" said one of the chess
players. The manager grimaced and said, "Because I can't stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer!"
6) A man entered a pun contest in his local
newspaper. He submitted ten different puns,
hoping that at least one of them would win a
prize. Unfortunately, no pun in ten, did.
7) A desperately poor woman, who had given
birth to twins, was forced to give them up for
adoption. One boy went to a family in Egypt, and was named Amahl. The other twin was adopted by a family in Spain, who named him
Juan.
Twenty years later, Juan sent a photo of himself to his real mother. She showed the photo to her husband and remarked that she
wished she also had a picture of Amahl.
Her husband laughed aloud and said, "But they're twins, Dear! If you've seen Juan,
you've seen Amahl."
