The kite lesson
Who flew the kite?
“I did,” said the wind!
“I did,” said the paper!
“I did,” said the string!
“I did,” said the girl!
But in reality they all flew the kite!
If the wind had dropped,
if the paper had torn,
if the sticks had broken,
if the tail had caught in the tree,
or the girl had fallen,
then the kite would have come down!
Each had a part to play!
Joke of the day – The parking incident
The old gent was backing his Rolls into the last available parking space when a zippy red sports car whipped in behind him to take the spot. The young man jumped out and said, “Sorry Pops, but you’ve got to be young and smart to do that.”
The old man ignored the remark and kept reversing until the Rolls had crunched the sports car into a crumpled heap. “Sorry son, you’ve got to be old and rich to do that!”

Happiness is …
… being a good listener!
Quote of the day – Allen Klein
“Your attitude is like a box of crayons that color your world. Constantly color your picture gray, and your picture will always be bleak. Try adding some bright colors to the picture by including humor, and your picture begins to lighten up.” – Allen Klein
Joke of the day – The flea
A flea had spent the evening in the pub. At closing time he hopped out and landed flat on his face.
“Hei…who moved my dog,” he said.

Joke of the day – The two Jewish gentelmen
Two Jewish gentlemen were seated together on a plane. They had been in the air for 30 minutes when the younger man asked the other if he had the time.
There was no answer. “Can you tell me the time please?”
Again there was no answer and the younger man detected some kind of deliberate resistance.
The aircraft was on its descent path when the older man quickly looked at his watch and said it was ten past three.
There was silence for a while before the young man said, “Why didn’t you tell me the time earlier?”
“Well, you know what it is like on flights. People get talking to each other. We could become friendly, especially when we are both Jewish. I would be obliged to invite you home. I have a lovely daughter and you are a young man, quite handsome. Romance could blossom and before long you could be asking for her hand in marriage. And to put it bluntly, I don’t want a son-in-law who hasn’t got a watch.”
