His mother thinks he has been in there too long, so she goes in to see what's up. The little boy is sitting on the toilet reading a book.

His mother says, Billy, are you all right? You've been in here for a while Billy says, I'm fine, Mommy i just haven't gone 'doody' yet." Mother says, Okay, you can stay here a few more minutes. But, Billy, why are you hitting yourself on the head?"

THANKS LINDA!!! ____________________________________________________ A woman is worried about an older woman, a widow, who lives in the apartment next door. She hasn't heard anything from her for a few days. So she tells her son, "I want you to go next door and see how ol' Mrs. Pierpoint is." A few minutes later, the boy returns. "Well, is she all right?" the mother asks. "She's fine, but she's annoyed with you," he says. "At me? Whatever for?" "Well," says her son, "Mrs. Pierpoint told me it's none of your business how old she is." ____________________________________________________ The shopkeeper was dismayed when a brand new business much like his own opened up next door and erected a huge sign which read.. BEST DEALS. He was horrified when another competitor opened up on his right, and announced its arrival with an even larger sign, reading.. LOWEST PRICES. The shopkeeper was panicked, until he got an idea. He put the biggest sign of all over his own shop. It read... MAIN ENTRANCE. ____________________________________________________ Not Spring yet! ____________________________________________________ >From Vic Everybody who has a dog calls him Rover or Boy. I call mine Sex. He's a great pal, but he has caused me a great deal of embarrassment. When I went to city hall to renew his dog license, I told the clerk I would like a license for Sex. He said, I'd like one too! I said, But this is a dog.. He said he didn't care what she looked like. Then I said, You don't understand. I've had Sex, since I was 9 years old. He winked and said You must have been quite a kid. When I married and went on my honeymoon. I took the dog with me. I told the motel clerk that I wanted a room for my wife and me, and a special room for Sex. He said, You don't need a special room. As long as you pay your bill, we don't care what you do. One day, I entered Sex in a contest, but before the competition began, the dog ran away. Another contestant asked me why I was just standing there, looking disappointed. I told him I had planned to have Sex in the contest. He told me I should have sold my own tickets. When my wife and I separated we went to court to fight for custody of the dog. I said, Your Honor, I had Sex before I was married. The judge said, The courtroom isn't a confessional. Stick to the case please. Then I told him that after I was married, Sex left me. He said, Me too. Last night, Sex ran off again. I spent hours looking all over town for him. A cop came over to me and asked, "What are you doing in this alley at 4 o'clock in the morning?" I told him that I was looking for Sex. My case comes up Friday. ___________________________________________________ Two guys were out walking their dogs, when one dog wanders off to pee against the wall. Like dogs do, it raised it's leg and started to do his thing. The second dog then goes up and starts to go exactly where the other dog did. But instead of raising his leg, he stood up on his hind legs, put both paws on the wall and relieved himself. One guy says to the other, "Wow, how did you teach him to pee like that?" The second man replies, "I didn't teach him. He's done it ever since the wall fell on him!"

Celine Dear Celine I don't. I made a filter in MailWasher that sends any mail from a "Do not reply" address straight to hell, unseen and unread. If it is important enough, then eventually the bozos will mail from a real address. Have FUN! DearWebby _____________________________________________________ Today, April 1 in 0527.
