A retired officer walks into a neighborhood grocery shop, looks at the young shopkeeper, and calmly says,<\/p>\n
\u201cPlease give me exactly **742 grains of green gram.**\u201d<\/p>\n
The request is so oddly specific that a few customers nearby stop what they’re doing and glance over, wondering whether the old man is testing the boy or simply having some fun.<\/p>\n
Without showing even the slightest hesitation, the youngster scoops some green gram onto the scale, carefully weighs **200 grams**, packs it neatly, and hands it over with complete confidence.<\/p>\n
The retired officer raises an eyebrow.<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you telling me there are really **742 grains** in this packet?\u201d<\/p>\n
The boy smiles.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course. If you don’t believe me, you can take it home and count every single one.\u201d<\/p>\n
Now the officer is genuinely intrigued.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow can you possibly be so sure?\u201d<\/p>\n
The youngster replies proudly,<\/p>\n
\u201cMy dad already counted them.\u201d<\/p>\n
The officer blinks.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe counted them?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes. After he retired, he had plenty of time on his hands. He counted the grains in one kilogram and discovered that it contains **3,710 grains**. So if one kilogram has 3,710 grains, then **200 grams must contain exactly 742 grains.** Simple mathematics.\u201d<\/p>\n
The officer can’t help laughing.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne last question… What does your father do?\u201d<\/p>\n
The youngster grins.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe’s retired too… just like you.\u201d<\/p>\n
================================<\/p>\n
A retired Army General moved into a quiet apartment complex after leaving military service. His neighbors admired him enormously. He was polite, disciplined, and kept mostly to himself.<\/p>\n
But after a few weeks, everyone noticed a peculiar weekend routine.<\/p>\n
Every Saturday night, at around **2:00 a.m.**, the General would return home after spending the evening with old Army friends. Usually a little too cheerful\u2014and more than a little drunk\u2014he would stumble into his apartment, pull off his **left boot**, and throw it onto the floor with a thunderous **BANG!**<\/p>\n
A second later came the **right boot**…<\/p>\n
**BANG!**<\/p>\n
The walls would shake.<\/p>\n
Babies would wake up crying.<\/p>\n
Dogs would start barking.<\/p>\n
Lights would switch on across the building as exhausted neighbors stared at their ceilings, knowing exactly what time it was.<\/p>\n
After several weekends of interrupted sleep, a delegation of neighbors politely visited the General one morning.<\/p>\n
\u201cGeneral, first of all, thank you for your years of service to our country. We’re honored to have you living here.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you,\u201d he replied warmly.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe understand retirement takes some adjusting, and we sincerely hope you’re enjoying yourself\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSo far, I am.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOne small favor, sir. When you come home late on weekends, would you mind **not throwing your boots onto the floor?** The noise wakes everyone in the building, especially the children.\u201d<\/p>\n
The General looked genuinely embarrassed.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh! I had no idea. I’m terribly sorry. That was thoughtless of me. I promise\u2014it won’t happen again.\u201d<\/p>\n
The neighbors thanked him and left, relieved that the problem had been solved.<\/p>\n
The following weekend, just after **2:00 a.m.**, the General returned home in his usual slightly drunken state.<\/p>\n
He sat on the edge of his bed.<\/p>\n
Off came the **left boot**.<\/p>\n
**BANG!**<\/p>\n
The sound echoed through the apartment.<\/p>\n
Then he reached for the second boot.<\/p>\n
Just as he was about to drop it, he suddenly froze.<\/p>\n
\u201cWait… this is exactly what they were talking about.\u201d<\/p>\n
Carefully\u2014almost ceremoniously\u2014he bent over and placed the right boot on the floor as gently as if it were made of crystal.<\/p>\n
Satisfied with himself, he climbed into bed and quickly fell asleep.<\/p>\n
Nearly an hour later, he was jolted awake by an endless ringing doorbell and furious pounding on his front door.<\/p>\n
Half-asleep and confused, he staggered over and opened it.<\/p>\n
Standing outside were several exhausted neighbors in their pajamas, hair messy, eyes bloodshot, looking even more miserable than before.<\/p>\n
One of them finally shouted,<\/p>\n
\u201c**GENERAL!**\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c**For the love of everything… would you PLEASE just slam the other boot already? We’ve all been lying awake for an hour waiting for it!**\u201d<\/p>\n

A police car pulled up in front of Grandma Bessie\u2019s house<\/p>\n
A police car pulled up in front of Grandma Bessie\u2019s house, lights flashing softly as the neighbors peeked through their curtains. Out stepped Grandpa Morris, looking perfectly calm, while the officer escorted him to the front porch.<\/p>\n
The officer politely explained, \u201cMa\u2019am, your husband said he got lost in the park and couldn\u2019t find his way home.\u201d<\/p>\n
Grandma Bessie folded her arms and stared at Morris. \u201cLost? You\u2019ve been going to that park for 30 years! You know every tree, every bench, and every squirrel by name. How on earth did you get lost today?\u201d<\/p>\n
Leaning in close so the officer couldn\u2019t hear, Grandpa whispered with a sheepish grin, \u201cI wasn\u2019t lost.<\/p>\n
I was just too tired to walk home.\u201d<\/p>\n

A policeman pulls over an old man driving a pickup truck<\/p>\n
A policeman pulls over an old man driving a pickup truck with the bed overflowing with noisy ducks, all happily quacking as feathers drifted through the air. The officer says sternly, \u201cSir, you can\u2019t have a flock of ducks wandering around downtown. Take them to the zoo immediately!\u201d<\/p>\n
The old man nods politely, tips his hat, promises to do exactly that, and drives away.<\/p>\n
The next day, the same officer spots the pickup again. The ducks are still riding in the back\u2014but now every single one of them is wearing sunglasses, looking like they\u2019re headed for vacation.<\/p>\n
Frustrated, the officer pulls the truck over once more and exclaims, \u201cI thought I told you to take these ducks to the zoo!\u201d<\/p>\n
The old man grins from ear to ear and replies, \u201cI did! They loved it. But now the little rascals want to go to the beach!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n
A cowboy, fresh from Texas, strolls into a bar in Montana and orders three mugs of Bud.<\/p>\n
A cowboy, fresh from Texas, strolls into a bar in Montana and orders three mugs of Bud. Instead of sitting at the counter, he heads to a quiet corner, where he slowly takes a sip from each mug, one after another, carefully repeating the cycle until all three are empty. Then he returns to the bar and orders three more.<\/p>\n
Curious after watching this strange routine for several nights, the bartender approaches him and says, \u201cYou know, beer goes flat pretty quickly after it\u2019s poured. It would probably taste better if you ordered one at a time.\u201d<\/p>\n
The cowboy smiles warmly and explains, \u201cWell, here\u2019s the thing. I\u2019ve got two brothers\u2014one lives in Arizona, the other in Colorado.<\/p>\n
When we all moved away from Texas, we promised that whenever any one of us had a beer, we\u2019d each drink one for the others too, just like we used to back home. So these three beers are for my brothers and myself.\u201d<\/p>\n
The bartender nods, touched by the tradition, and says no more. Before long, the cowboy becomes a regular, and everyone in the bar comes to recognize the ritual of the three beers.<\/p>\n
Then one evening, the cowboy walks in and quietly orders only two mugs.<\/p>\n
The room grows unusually silent. Several regulars exchange worried glances, assuming the worst.<\/p>\n
When the cowboy returns for his second round, the bartender gently leans over the counter and says, \u201cI\u2019m truly sorry for your loss.<\/p>\n
I just wanted to offer my condolences.\u201d<\/p>\n
The cowboy looks puzzled for a moment before bursting into laughter.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh no,\u201d he chuckles. \u201cNobody died!\u201d<\/p>\n
He wipes a tear from laughing and adds, \u201cIt\u2019s just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church, so I had to quit drinking.<\/p>\n
But my brothers are still going strong!\u201d<\/p>\n
**LOL!! Hope this joke makes you smile! Have a wonderful day!**<\/p>\n

### An Old Cowboy Gets 3 Wishes<\/p>\n
A modern-day old cowboy has spent days wandering across a scorching desert without food or water. Exhausted and barely able to crawl, he becomes certain his final moments have arrived.<\/p>\n
Just as he begins to lose hope, he notices something sticking out of the sand several yards ahead.<\/p>\n
Summoning the last of his strength, he crawls toward it, digs it out, and discovers what appears to be an old leather briefcase.<\/p>\n
Curious, he snaps it open.<\/p>\n
With a puff of smoke, out pops a genie.<\/p>\n
But this is no ordinary genie.<\/p>\n
She wears an **AUSTRALIAN TAXATION OFFICE** badge, a dull gray business suit, sensible shoes, and carries a calculator in one hand with a sharpened pencil tucked behind one ear.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, old cowboy,\u201d says the genie matter-of-factly, \u201cyou know how this works.<\/p>\n
You have three wishes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not falling for this,\u201d the old man mutters. \u201cI\u2019m not about to trust an ATO auditor genie.\u201d<\/p>\n
The genie shrugs.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you have to lose? You have no transportation, no water, no supplies, and judging by the look of you, you\u2019re not going to last much longer anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n
The old cowboy thinks for a minute.<\/p>\n
She has a point.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright,\u201d he sighs.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy first wish is to be in a lush oasis with plenty of food and drink.\u201d<\/p>\n
**Shazam!**<\/p>\n
Instantly he finds himself beneath towering palm trees beside a sparkling lagoon, surrounded by tables overflowing with roasted meats, fresh fruit, cakes, and endless jugs of wine.<\/p>\n
\u201cVery nice,\u201d says the genie.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd your second wish?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to be richer than I ever dreamed possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
**Shazam!**<\/p>\n
Mountains of treasure appear around him\u2014gold coins, diamonds, emeralds, pearls, priceless antiques, and overflowing chests of jewels.<\/p>\n
The genie smiles.<\/p>\n
\u201cExcellent. One wish remains.<\/p>\n
Better make it count.\u201d<\/p>\n
The cowboy scratches his chin for several minutes before finally saying, \u201cNo matter where I go\u2026<\/p>\n
I want beautiful women to want me and need me.\u201d<\/p>\n
The genie grins.<\/p>\n
**Shazam!**<\/p>\n
He is instantly transformed into a **t-a.mpon.**<\/p>\n
### Moral of the story<\/p>\n
If the government offers you anything, chances are there’s going to be a string attached.<\/p>\n

### How Much Money Did I Have?<\/p>\n
Puzzles come in many different forms.<\/p>\n
Some are mathematical brain teasers, others are optical illusions, crosswords, logic games, or classic riddles that make you question the wording more than the numbers.<\/p>\n
Here’s one that has fooled countless people over the years.<\/p>\n
**The riddle says:**<\/p>\n
I had 13 dollars.<\/p>\n
My mom gave me 10 dollars while my dad gave me 30 dollars.<\/p>\n
My aunt and uncle gave me 100 dollars.<\/p>\n
I had another 5 dollars.<\/p>\n
**How much money did I have?**<\/p>\n
Take your time before reading further.<\/p>\n
A<\/p>\n
B<\/p>\n
C<\/p>\n
### Here is the correct answer<\/p>\n
Did you figure it out?<\/p>\n
The trick is hidden in the wording of the question.<\/p>\n
It asks:<\/p>\n
**”How much money did I have?”**<\/p>\n
Not:<\/p>\n
**”How much money did I end up with?”**<\/p>\n
The question only asks how much money you originally **had**.<\/p>\n
That means you only count the money that already belonged to you.<\/p>\n
You had **13 dollars**.<\/p>\n
Then you **had another 5 dollars.**<\/p>\n
So the correct answer is:<\/p>\n
**18 dollars.**<\/p>\n
The money your parents, aunt, and uncle gave you isn’t part of what you originally “had”\u2014it’s additional money you received afterward.<\/p>\n
A clever little riddle that reminds us to read every word carefully and think outside the box.<\/p>\n
\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<\/p>\n
An elderly couple, Bert and Edna, are sitting on the porch swing<\/p>\n
An elderly couple, Bert and Edna, are sitting on the porch swing one quiet Sunday evening. They\u2019ve been married for 55 wonderful\u2014and occasionally competitive\u2014years.<\/p>\n
The sun is setting, birds are singing, and they\u2019re both sipping lukewarm tea while watching two squirrels argue over a single Cheeto in the yard.<\/p>\n
Out of nowhere, Edna sighs.<\/p>\n
\u201cBert, let\u2019s talk about our bucket lists.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert raises an eyebrow.<\/p>\n
\u201cBucket lists?<\/p>\n
Edna, I\u2019m 87. My list has been reduced to \u2018wake up tomorrow and remember where I put my pants.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
Edna laughs.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, I\u2019m serious.<\/p>\n
Before we go, we should each do something we\u2019ve always wanted to do but never got around to.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert thinks for a moment.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve always wanted to go skydiving.\u201d<\/p>\n
Edna nearly drops her tea.<\/p>\n
\u201cSkydiving?!<\/p>\n
Bert, the last time you bent over to tie your shoes, you passed out for three minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert shrugs.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell\u2026 if I die on the way down, at least let me land in the neighbor\u2019s garden.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve always wanted to haunt him.\u201d<\/p>\n
They both laugh.<\/p>\n
\u201cFine,\u201d Edna says.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou go skydiving.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll finally do what\u2019s on my list too.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert narrows his eyes.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd what exactly is your dream?\u201d<\/p>\n
A mischievous sparkle appears in Edna\u2019s eyes\u2014the same look she wore back in 1965 when she “accidentally” dropped Bert\u2019s bowling trophy out of the car window after an argument.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve always wanted to confess something.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert suddenly feels nervous.<\/p>\n
\u201cConfess what?\u201d<\/p>\n
Edna leans in and whispers,<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know how your favorite recliner leaned to the left for twenty years?\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert nods.<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah. I blamed the dog.<\/p>\n
Poor thing limped for weeks.\u201d<\/p>\n
Edna smiles sweetly.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was me.<\/p>\n
I jammed a spatula underneath after you spilled grape soda all over my new curtains in 1989.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert gasps dramatically.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou monster!\u201d<\/p>\n
Edna giggles.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd remember when your TV remote mysteriously kept changing every channel to Hallmark?\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert’s eyes widen.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou said the house was haunted!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNope.<\/p>\n
I glued a penny inside the battery compartment.<\/p>\n
You watched Christmas romance movies for five straight years.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert throws up his hands.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy would you do that?\u201d<\/p>\n
Edna calmly sips her tea.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause revenge, dear, is best served with mistletoe and slow-motion snowball fights.\u201d<\/p>\n
After a long silence, Bert leans back.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell\u2026<\/p>\n
I have a confession too.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh?\u201d Edna says.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou remember all those Saturday fishing trips I took for ten years?\u201d<\/p>\n
Edna squints.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou don’t fish.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI know,\u201d Bert admits proudly.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was at the bowling alley.<\/p>\n
I won four trophies.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re hidden behind the water heater in the basement.\u201d<\/p>\n
Edna freezes.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou mean\u2026<\/p>\n
I accidentally threw a fake trophy out the car window?\u201d<\/p>\n
Bert grins.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a decoy.\u201d<\/p>\n
For a moment they simply stare at each other.<\/p>\n
Then they both burst into uncontrollable laughter.<\/p>\n
From that day on, Bert finally went skydiving, Edna bought him a brand-new recliner, and every Saturday they went bowling together\u2014mostly to make sure neither one of them was hiding anything anymore.<\/p>\n

An 85-year-old couple, married for almost 60 years<\/p>\n
An 85-year-old couple, married for nearly 60 wonderful years, tragically passed away in a car accident and arrived together at the Pearly Gates.<\/p>\n
Thanks to the wife’s lifelong obsession with healthy eating, vitamins, and daily exercise, they had remained remarkably fit right up until the end.<\/p>\n
St. Peter welcomed them with a smile and led them to their heavenly mansion.<\/p>\n
It featured an enormous bedroom, a Jacuzzi, a gourmet kitchen, beautiful gardens, and even a private billiards room.<\/p>\n
The husband looked around in amazement.<\/p>\n
\u201cWow!<\/p>\n
How much does all this cost?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNothing,\u201d St. Peter replied with a smile.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is Heaven.<\/p>\n
Everything is free.\u201d<\/p>\n
Next, they were shown a championship golf course just minutes away from their home.<\/p>\n
They could play whenever they wished, with angels serving as caddies, and every day the course magically transformed itself to resemble another famous championship course from around the world.<\/p>\n
\u201cIncredible!\u201d the wife exclaimed.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd the green fees?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFree,\u201d St. Peter laughed.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is Heaven.\u201d<\/p>\n
Finally, they entered a spectacular five-star restaurant.<\/p>\n
The buffet stretched farther than they could see.<\/p>\n
There was Wagyu beef, lobster, prime rib, seafood, fresh vegetables, pastries, cakes, chocolates, and desserts beyond imagination.<\/p>\n
The husband still looked suspicious.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo…<\/p>\n
what’s the catch?<\/p>\n
How much does this meal cost?\u201d<\/p>\n
St. Peter smiled patiently.<\/p>\n
\u201cSir…<\/p>\n
for the last time…<\/p>\n
it’s all FREE.<\/p>\n
You’re in Heaven.\u201d<\/p>\n
The husband hesitated before asking,<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you have any low-fat or low-cholesterol meals?\u201d<\/p>\n
St. Peter laughed.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn Heaven, you never gain weight, never get sick, and never have to worry about cholesterol again.<\/p>\n
Eat absolutely anything you want.\u201d<\/p>\n
Suddenly the husband turned bright red.<\/p>\n
He clenched both fists and began shaking them toward the sky.<\/p>\n
Alarmed, his wife asked,<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat on earth is wrong?\u201d<\/p>\n
He pointed straight at her and shouted,<\/p>\n
\u201cTHIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!<\/p>\n
If it weren’t for your bran muffins, kale smoothies, oat cereal, and paleo chicken…<\/p>\n
WE COULD HAVE BEEN HERE TEN YEARS AGO!\u201d<\/p>\n

Benjamin was in jail, serving a 30-year sentence for robbing banks. After completing about 12 years, he was informed that his wealthy uncle from Ludhiana had passed away and left him more than $50,000.<\/p>\n
Benjamin could hardly believe his luck. The warden explained that the money would be placed in a trust until Benjamin was released, then asked if there was anything he wanted to buy before the funds were locked away.<\/p>\n
Benjamin smiled and said he had spent years reading about computers and had always dreamed of owning one.<\/p>\n
The warden agreed and ordered him a brand-new Compaq computer. Benjamin was thrilled.<\/p>\n
A few weeks later, the warden stopped by Benjamin\u2019s cell to see how he was enjoying his new purchase.<\/p>\n
Instead of finding Benjamin happily typing away, he discovered the computer smashed into pieces across the floor.<\/p>\n
Shocked, the warden asked, \u201cWhat on earth happened?\u201d<\/p>\n
Benjamin shook his head in frustration. \u201cThis thing doesn\u2019t work!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you mean it doesn\u2019t work?\u201d the warden asked.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt couldn\u2019t even perform the simplest task,\u201d Benjamin complained.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat task?\u201d<\/p>\n
Benjamin sighed.<\/p>\n
\u201cI only wanted it to do one thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOne simple thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI pressed the Escape key\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI pressed it again\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd I\u2019m still here.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI think I\u2019m going to sue Compaq.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2013<\/p>\n
**The Right Answer**<\/p>\n
The teacher announced, \u201cI\u2019ll give two dollars to the student who can tell me who the most famous man who ever lived was.\u201d<\/p>\n
An Irish boy immediately raised his hand.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was St. Patrick.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry, Sean,\u201d the teacher replied. \u201cThat\u2019s not correct.\u201d<\/p>\n
Next, a French boy stood up confidently.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was Napoleon.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSorry, Pierre. That\u2019s not the right answer either.\u201d<\/p>\n
Finally, a Jewish boy named Maurice quietly raised his hand.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was Jesus Christ.\u201d<\/p>\n
The teacher smiled warmly.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s absolutely right, Maurice. Come up here and collect your two dollars.\u201d<\/p>\n
As she handed him the money, she said, \u201cYou know, Maurice, since you’re Jewish, I\u2019m a little surprised you answered Jesus Christ.\u201d<\/p>\n
Maurice leaned in and whispered with a grin,<\/p>\n
\u201cHonestly, in my heart I knew it was Moses\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026but business is business.\u201d<\/p>\n
==================================<\/p>\n
The woman was incredibly wealthy, while the man was poor\u2014but honest.<\/p>\n
She enjoyed his company, though he knew she didn\u2019t love him the way he loved her.<\/p>\n
One evening, after a particularly romantic dinner, he decided to take his chance.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re very rich,\u201d he said carefully.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes,\u201d she answered without hesitation. \u201cI\u2019m worth about 1.25 million dollars.\u201d<\/p>\n
He nodded.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd I\u2019m poor.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then he took a deep breath.<\/p>\n
\u201cWill you marry me?\u201d<\/p>\n
She smiled politely.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought you\u2019d say that.\u201d<\/p>\n
She looked puzzled.<\/p>\n
\u201cThen why did you ask?\u201d<\/p>\n
He smiled back.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh\u2026 I just wanted to know what it feels like to lose 1.25 million dollars in one sentence.\u201d<\/p>\n
==================================<\/p>\n
Stanley was searching for a new desk for his office when he spotted the perfect one in the window of an antique shop.<\/p>\n
He walked inside and asked the shopkeeper how much it cost.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat desk is $5,000,\u201d the shopkeeper replied.<\/p>\n
\u201cFive thousand dollars for an old desk?\u201d Stanley exclaimed. \u201cThat\u2019s outrageous!\u201d<\/p>\n
The shopkeeper smiled knowingly.<\/p>\n
\u201cAh\u2026 but this isn\u2019t just any desk. It\u2019s a magic desk.\u201d<\/p>\n
Stanley folded his arms.<\/p>\n
\u201cA magic desk?\u201d<\/p>\n
The shopkeeper nodded, turned toward it, and asked,<\/p>\n
\u201cDesk, how much money do I have in my pocket?\u201d<\/p>\n
The desk tapped one leg on the floor four times.<\/p>\n
The shopkeeper reached into his pocket and pulled out four dollar coins.<\/p>\n
Stanley stared.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s incredible!\u201d<\/p>\n
The shopkeeper grinned.<\/p>\n
\u201cWatch this.\u201d<\/p>\n
He turned back to the desk.<\/p>\n
\u201cDesk\u2026 how much money does my wife have in her bank account?\u201d<\/p>\n
Suddenly the desk went completely wild.<\/p>\n
All four legs hammered against the floor nonstop for over five minutes.<\/p>\n
Stanley watched in disbelief.<\/p>\n
Finally he muttered,<\/p>\n
\u201cGood grief\u2026 where did she get all that money?\u201d<\/p>\n
At that exact moment\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2026the desk\u2019s legs slowly spread apart\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2026and every drawer dropped open.<\/p>\n
\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<\/p>\n
## **A Texan Farmer Goes to Australia**<\/p>\n
A proud Texan farmer was vacationing in Australia when he met a local farmer.<\/p>\n
The Australian proudly showed him an enormous wheat field.<\/p>\n
The Texan barely glanced at it.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh,\u201d he said casually, \u201cback in Texas, our wheat fields are at least twice as big.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Australian simply smiled.<\/p>\n
A little later, they walked over to see the cattle.<\/p>\n
Again the Texan couldn’t resist.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur Texas longhorns are at least twice the size of your cows.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Australian remained quiet.<\/p>\n
As they continued walking, the Texan suddenly noticed several kangaroos bouncing across the field.<\/p>\n
Completely puzzled, he asked,<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd what on earth are those?\u201d<\/p>\n
The Australian looked at him in disbelief before replying,<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t you have grasshoppers in Texas?\u201d<\/p>\n
Hope this joke made you smile! Have a wonderful day!<\/p>\n
==================================<\/p>\n
A government inspector visited a pig farmer one day.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you feed your pigs?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, whatever scraps I have lying around,\u201d the farmer answered honestly.<\/p>\n
The inspector gasped.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s animal cruelty! I\u2019m fining you $10,000.\u201d<\/p>\n
The following day, another government official arrived.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you feed your pigs?\u201d<\/p>\n
The farmer had learned his lesson.<\/p>\n
\u201cOnly the finest food, sir\u2014caviar, artisanal cheeses, premium salads\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
The official looked horrified.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s completely inappropriate! They\u2019ll get sick eating food that rich!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnother $10,000 fine.\u201d<\/p>\n
On the third day, yet another inspector showed up and asked the same question.<\/p>\n
The exhausted farmer smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, my pigs?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI give each of them twenty bucks\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026and let them shop for themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n
LOL!! Hope this joke made you smile! Have a nice day!!<\/p>\n
\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n
## **A Smart and Witty Beggar**<\/p>\n
Every day, a man walked past the same beggar and gave him $2.<\/p>\n
This continued for an entire year.<\/p>\n
Then one day, the amount dropped to $1.50.<\/p>\n
The beggar thought, \u201cWell, it\u2019s less\u2026 but it\u2019s still something.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another year passed.<\/p>\n
Then the donation dropped again\u2014to just $1.<\/p>\n
Finally, the beggar couldn’t stay quiet.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat happened?\u201d he asked. \u201cYou used to give me $2 every day, then $1.50, and now only $1.\u201d<\/p>\n
The man sighed.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy oldest son started college last year. Tuition is expensive.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year my daughter started university too, so I had to cut expenses even more.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow many children do you have?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFour.\u201d<\/p>\n
The beggar shook his head.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI certainly hope you\u2019re not planning to educate all four of them at my expense!\u201d<\/p>\n
==================================<\/p>\n
## **Two Beggars in London**<\/p>\n
Ali and Habib were both beggars in London.<\/p>\n
They worked equally hard and begged for the same number of hours every day.<\/p>\n
Yet Habib barely collected \u00a32 or \u00a33 daily.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Ali returned home each evening with a suitcase full of \u00a310 notes, drove a Mercedes, lived in a mortgage-free house, and seemed to have money to spare.<\/p>\n
One day Habib finally asked,<\/p>\n
\u201cHow is this possible? I work just as hard as you!\u201d<\/p>\n
Ali pointed to Habib\u2019s cardboard sign.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat does yours say?\u201d<\/p>\n
Habib read aloud:<\/p>\n
\u201cI have no job, a wife, and six children to support.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ali nodded.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo wonder.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNow look at mine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Habib picked it up and read:<\/p>\n
\u201cI only need another \u00a310 to move back to my country.\u201d<\/p>\n
LOL! Hope this joke made you smile! Have a nice day!<\/p>\n
\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<\/p>\n
A man grew tired of working every day while his wife stayed home caring for the family.<\/p>\n
Convinced she had the easier life, he prayed,<\/p>\n
\u201cDear Lord, I work eight hours every day while my wife stays home. Please let us switch places so she can experience what I go through.\u201d<\/p>\n
God, in His wisdom, granted the wish.<\/p>\n
The next morning, the man woke up in his wife\u2019s body.<\/p>\n
He made breakfast.<\/p>\n
Woke the children.<\/p>\n
Got them dressed.<\/p>\n
Packed lunches.<\/p>\n
Drove them to school.<\/p>\n
Picked up the dry cleaning.<\/p>\n
Stopped by the bank.<\/p>\n
Paid the electricity bill.<\/p>\n
Paid the phone bill.<\/p>\n
Went grocery shopping.<\/p>\n
Returned home.<\/p>\n
Put everything away.<\/p>\n
Cleaned the cat\u2019s litter box.<\/p>\n
Bathed the dog.<\/p>\n
Before he knew it, it was already 1 p.m.<\/p>\n
He made the beds.<\/p>\n
Did the laundry.<\/p>\n
Vacuumed.<\/p>\n
Dusted.<\/p>\n
Swept.<\/p>\n
Mopped the kitchen.<\/p>\n
Then rushed to collect the children from school, argued with them on the drive home, served snacks, supervised homework, ironed clothes while trying to watch television, prepared dinner, cleaned the kitchen, loaded the dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the children, and tucked them into bed.<\/p>\n
By 9 p.m., he was completely exhausted.<\/p>\n
Yet the day still wasn\u2019t over.<\/p>\n
His wife expected a romantic evening.<\/p>\n
He somehow survived that too.<\/p>\n
The next morning, he immediately dropped to his knees.<\/p>\n
\u201cLord, I was so wrong. I had no idea how hard my wife works every single day.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPlease\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLet us switch back.\u201d<\/p>\n
God smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy son, I\u2019m happy you\u2019ve learned your lesson.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll gladly change things back\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
..<\/p>\n
.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut you\u2019ll have to wait nine months.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou got pregnant last night.\u201d<\/p>\n
=========<\/p>\n
There were two friends\u2014one owned a Doberman Pinscher, the other had a tiny Chihuahua.<\/p>\n
The man with the Doberman suggested,<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s go eat at that restaurant.\u201d<\/p>\n
His friend looked worried.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe can\u2019t. They don\u2019t allow dogs.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cJust do exactly what I do.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Doberman owner put on a pair of dark sunglasses and confidently walked toward the entrance.<\/p>\n
The bouncer stopped him.<\/p>\n
\u201cSorry, sir. No pets allowed.\u201d<\/p>\n
The man replied,<\/p>\n
\u201cYou misunderstand.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is my seeing-eye dog.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cA Doberman?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes. They\u2019re using them now. Excellent guide dogs\u2014and they protect me from robbers too.\u201d<\/p>\n
The bouncer shrugged.<\/p>\n
\u201cFair enough. Go on in.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Chihuahua owner figured it might work.<\/p>\n
He put on dark glasses and confidently approached the door.<\/p>\n
Again, the bouncer stopped him.<\/p>\n
\u201cSorry, no pets allowed.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is my seeing-eye dog,\u201d the man insisted.<\/p>\n
The bouncer stared.<\/p>\n
\u201cA Chihuahua?\u201d<\/p>\n
The man blinked in complete shock.<\/p>\n
\u201cA Chihuahua?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
..<\/p>\n
.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey gave me a Chihuahua?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n
## **The Forgotten Cell Phone**<\/p>\n
One day, a customer accidentally left his cell phone in my convenience store.<\/p>\n
Trying to help, I scrolled through his contacts until I found one simply labeled **Mom**.<\/p>\n
I called her.<\/p>\n
She answered.<\/p>\n
I explained that her son had forgotten his phone.<\/p>\n
She laughed softly.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t worry,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019ll take care of it.\u201d<\/p>\n
A few minutes later, the phone rang.<\/p>\n
The screen displayed:<\/p>\n
**Mom**<\/p>\n
I answered.<\/p>\n
She calmly said,<\/p>\n
\u201cMartin\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou left your cell phone at the convenience store.\u201d<\/p>\n
======<\/p>\n
A man walked into a bar and ordered a vodka and Coke.<\/p>\n
He drank it.<\/p>\n
Then ordered another.<\/p>\n
And another.<\/p>\n
After several rounds, the bartender noticed the man slowing down.<\/p>\n
\u201cEverything alright, sir?\u201d<\/p>\n
The man sighed.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had a huge argument with my wife.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShe told me she won\u2019t speak to me for an entire month.\u201d<\/p>\n
The bartender smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell then, stop drinking, go home, and make peace before this drags on. Nip it in the bud.\u201d<\/p>\n
The man looked at him sadly.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou don\u2019t understand.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026is the last night.\u201d<\/p>\n
=====<\/p>\n
A blonde pulled into a gas station, got out of her car, opened the hood, and checked the engine oil.<\/p>\n
After studying the dipstick for a moment, she walked over to the attendant.<\/p>\n
\u201cExcuse me,\u201d she asked politely.<\/p>\n
\u201cCan I buy a longer dipstick?\u201d<\/p>\n
The attendant looked confused.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy would you need a longer one?\u201d<\/p>\n
The blonde held up the dipstick and said,<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause this one\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026isn\u2019t long enough to reach the oil.\u201d<\/p>\n

Two blondes were flying to Miami from Cleveland.<\/p>\n
Two blondes were flying to Miami from Cleveland. About fifteen minutes after takeoff, the captain\u2019s calm voice came over the intercom.<\/p>\n
\u201cLadies and gentlemen, one of our engines has failed. There\u2019s no need to panic\u2014we still have three perfectly good engines. The only inconvenience is that our arrival in Miami will be delayed by about one hour.\u201d<\/p>\n
The passengers exchanged uneasy glances, but everyone settled back into their seats.<\/p>\n
Thirty minutes later, the captain returned with another announcement.<\/p>\n
\u201cFolks, I have some more news. Unfortunately, another engine has failed. We\u2019re still completely safe because we have two engines remaining, but the flight will now be delayed by another hour.\u201d<\/p>\n
The cabin grew noticeably quieter.<\/p>\n
An hour later, the captain spoke again.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m afraid we\u2019ve lost a third engine. The aircraft is still flying safely on the remaining engine, but our arrival will now be delayed by approximately three hours.\u201d<\/p>\n
One blonde slowly turned to the other, wearing a look of complete concern.<\/p>\n
She sighed and whispered,<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we lose one more engine, we\u2019ll be up here all day!\u201d<\/p>\n
============================================<\/p>\n
A husband was addicted to smoking and drinking. One day, his wife finally lost her patience.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you keep smoking,\u201d she warned, \u201cone day all your intestines are going to fall out!\u201d<\/p>\n
Her husband laughed so hard he nearly dropped his cigarette.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s the funniest thing I\u2019ve ever heard,\u201d he said. \u201cNice try.\u201d<\/p>\n
Since he refused to believe her, he continued smoking and drinking exactly as before.<\/p>\n
His wife decided that if words wouldn\u2019t work, maybe a little imagination would.<\/p>\n
Early the next morning, she visited a butcher and bought a long bundle of large intestines.<\/p>\n
When she got home, her husband was still fast asleep. Very carefully, she tucked the intestines into the front of his underwear and quietly waited downstairs.<\/p>\n
A few minutes later, the entire house echoed with a bloodcurdling scream.<\/p>\n
Then\u2026 silence.<\/p>\n
Five minutes passed.<\/p>\n
Ten minutes.<\/p>\n
Thirty minutes.<\/p>\n
Finally, after nearly an hour, her husband slowly walked downstairs. He looked pale, exhausted, and drenched in sweat.<\/p>\n
Trying not to laugh, she asked, \u201cHoney\u2026 what happened?\u201d<\/p>\n
He shook his head in disbelief.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou were right! My intestines really did come out!\u201d<\/p>\n
She gasped dramatically. \u201cOh no! What did you do?\u201d<\/p>\n
He wiped his forehead and proudly replied,<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t worry, sweetheart. It took me almost half an hour\u2026 but I finally managed to shove every single one of them back in!\u201d<\/p>\n
================================<\/p>\n
Michael\u2019s wife, refusing to surrender to the effects of growing older, spent a fortune on a brand-new line of luxury beauty products that promised to make her look years younger.<\/p>\n
After spending nearly an hour carefully applying every cream, lotion, and serum in front of the bathroom mirror, she proudly walked into the living room.<\/p>\n
Standing in front of her husband, she smiled brightly.<\/p>\n
\u201cDarling,\u201d she asked, \u201cbe completely honest. If you didn\u2019t already know me, how old would you say I am?\u201d<\/p>\n
Michael studied her from head to toe with great seriousness.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cJudging by your skin, I\u2019d say twenty.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her smile grew wider.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour hair? About eighteen.\u201d<\/p>\n
She blushed.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd your figure\u2026 definitely twenty-five.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, Michael!\u201d she laughed. \u201cYou old charmer!\u201d<\/p>\n
She stepped closer, expecting a romantic compliment.<\/p>\n
Instead, Michael raised a finger.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhoa\u2026 hold on there, sweetheart.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n

**P.S.** If anyone has seen Michael recently, please let us know. His friends are becoming increasingly concerned.<\/p>\n

An irate father stormed into the principal\u2019s office.<\/p>\n
\u201cI demand to know why my son, Winslow, received a zero on his English examination!\u201d<\/p>\n
The principal remained calm.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s bring in his English teacher. I\u2019m sure she can explain.\u201d<\/p>\n
A few minutes later, the teacher entered the office.<\/p>\n
The father pointed an accusing finger.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy did you give Winslow a zero?\u201d<\/p>\n
The teacher folded her arms.<\/p>\n
\u201cI really had no choice. He turned in a completely blank sheet of paper. There wasn\u2019t a single word written on it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s ridiculous!\u201d the father shouted.<\/p>\n
The teacher blinked in surprise.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou mean you expected me to give him marks for a blank paper?\u201d<\/p>\n
The father nodded confidently.<\/p>\n
\u201cAbsolutely!\u201d<\/p>\n
She stared at him.<\/p>\n
He added,<\/p>\n
\u201cYou could have at least given him an \u2018A\u2019 for neatness!\u201d<\/p>\n
==============================<\/p>\n
**Machine and Bottle**<\/p>\n
After the birth of their first child, Tom and Sarah decided it was finally time to write a will and organize their affairs.<\/p>\n
They met with a lawyer, discussed their estate, and carefully planned everything.<\/p>\n
As they finished, the lawyer asked one final question.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf either of you were ever seriously injured and unable to care for yourselves, what kind of life-support measures would you want?\u201d<\/p>\n
Tom answered without hesitation.<\/p>\n
\u201cI never want my life controlled by some machine.\u201d<\/p>\n
He paused dramatically.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd I certainly don’t want to receive all my nourishment from a bottle.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sarah nodded thoughtfully.<\/p>\n
She said absolutely nothing.<\/p>\n
When they arrived home, she quietly unplugged the television, cut its power cord\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2026and poured every bottle of Tom\u2019s beer straight down the sink.<\/p>\n
\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<\/p>\n
A lady lost her handbag in the middle of the crowded Christmas shopping rush.<\/p>\n
Hours later, an honest young boy found it and returned it to her.<\/p>\n
She gratefully opened the purse to check everything inside.<\/p>\n
After counting the money, she frowned.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s strange.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat is?\u201d asked the boy.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I lost my handbag, there was one twenty-dollar bill inside.\u201d<\/p>\n
She looked at him suspiciously.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow there are twenty one-dollar bills.\u201d<\/p>\n
The boy smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s right, ma\u2019am.\u201d<\/p>\n
She waited for an explanation.<\/p>\n
He shrugged and said,<\/p>\n
\u201cThe last time I returned a lady\u2019s purse, she said she wanted to give me a reward\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026but she didn\u2019t have any change.\u201d<\/p>\n
LOLLLL! Did that one catch you off guard?<\/p>\n
We hope these jokes brightened your day.<\/p>\n
Have a wonderful day\u2014and remember, you are loved!<\/p>\n
====================================<\/p>\n
**First Day on the Job\u2014and the Trainee Already Knows How to Handle the CEO!**<\/p>\n
A young man started his very first day as a trainee at a massive corporate company.<\/p>\n
Wanting to look important, he walked confidently into his office, picked up the phone, and dialed what he thought was the pantry.<\/p>\n
\u201cGet me a coffee,\u201d he barked. \u201cAnd make it quick!\u201d<\/p>\n
There was a brief silence.<\/p>\n
Then an angry voice exploded through the receiver.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou idiot! You dialed the wrong extension!\u201d<\/p>\n
The voice became even louder.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you have any idea who you’re talking to?\u201d<\/p>\n
The trainee leaned back in his chair.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m the CEO of this entire company, you fool!\u201d<\/p>\n
The trainee smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh really?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes!\u201d<\/p>\n
He paused for a second before asking,<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd do **you** know who **you’re** talking to?\u201d<\/p>\n
The CEO hesitated.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026No.\u201d<\/p>\n
The trainee grinned from ear to ear.<\/p>\n
\u201cGood!\u201d<\/p>\n
