    Yes, too true: and also sometimes if you get a raise your expenses go up cos suddenly you can afford to send you kids to private school (for example) ! (No, I've not yet had that dilemma....)

  • [IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Wolf/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-2.jpg[/IMG]An 86-year-old man walked into a crowded waiting room and approached the desk. The receptionist said, 'Hello, sir. Can you please tell me why you're here to see the doctor today?'

    'There's something wrong with my !!!!!!,' he replied.

    The receptionist became irritated and said, 'You shouldn't come into a crowded waiting room and say things like that.'

    'Why not? You asked me what was wrong and I told you,' he said.

    The receptionist replied, 'Now you've caused some embarrassment in this room full of people. You should have said there is something wrong with your ear or something and discussed the problem further with the doctor in private.'

    The man replied, 'You shouldn't ask people questions in a room full of strangers, if the answer could embarrass anyone.' The man walked out, waited several minutes and then re-entered.

    The receptionist smiled smugly and asked, 'Yes?'

    'There's something wrong with my ear,' he stated.

    The receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had taken her advice. 'And what is wrong with your ear, sir?'

    'I can't !!!! out of it,' he replied.

    The waiting room erupted in laughter.

    Just one more Dickens quote
    Picture the first Mrs Amistupid at the alter saying "I Do"

    “With affection beaming out of one eye, and calculation shining out of the other.” :rotfl:
