FRATERNITY 11 LET’S SMILE Anyone with average nerves will feel sympathy for the TV announcer doing his first commercial for a new sponsor. With cameras centerede on him, the announcer smiled, took a deep draw on the sponsor’s cigarette, blew out a ring of smoke, and sighed blissfully: “Man, that’s real coffee!” ★ ★ ★ Bobbie was in a store with his mother, when he was given a stick of candy by one of the clerks. “What do you say, Bobbie?” prodded his mother. “Charge it”, Bobbie replied. ★ ★ ★ Sweet Resignation . . . Little old lady to income tax clerk: “I do hope you’ll give my money to some nice country.” ★ ★ ★ Customer: “Say, what kind of pie is this, apple or peach?” Waitress: “What does it taste like?” Customer (tasting): “Glue!” Waitress: “Then it’s peach. The apple tastes like putty.” ★ ★ ★ Smith was sitting down to breakfast one morning when he was astounded to see an announcement of his death in the newspapers. He rushed to the phone at once to call up his boss. “Hello”, he shouted. “Did you see the announcement of my death in the newspapers?” “Yes”, the boss replied. “Where are you calling from?” ★ ★ ★ First Shutterbug: “This morning I noticed an old woman who looked hungry and homeless. She told me that she had lost all her money and her family, and now she had nothing to live for!” Second Shutterbug: “How unfortunate. What did you give her?” First Shutterbug: “Well, it was sunny so I gave her f-16 at 1-100.” ★ ★ ★ Professional Courtesy . . . Two psycho-analysts met. One said to the other: “You feel fine. How do I feel?” ★ ★ ★ “I’d like to make an appointment with the dentist.” “Sorry, he’s out just now.” “When will he be out again?” ★ ★ ★ A father, listening to his seven-year-old scratch away on his violin while the dog howled dismally nearby, finally asked the boy: “Can’t you play something the dog doesn’t know?” ★ ★ ★ Mechanic to owner of old, broken-down car: “Let me put it this way — if your car were a horse, it would have to be shot.”
