Joe and his wife Martha went to the annual show every year and each time Joe would say: “Martha, I’d like to ride in that plane.”

And every year Martha would reply: “I know Joe, but that plane ride costs $10, and $10 is $10.”

One year Joe and Martha went to the fair and he said: “Martha, I’m 71 years old. If I don’t ride that plane this year I may never get another chance.”

Martha replied: “Joe, that plane ride costs $10, and $10 is $10.”

The pilot overheard them and said: “Folks, I’ll make you a deal, I’ll take you both up for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say one word, I won’t charge you, but if you say one word it’s $10.” Joe and Martha agreed and up they went.

The pilot did all kinds of twists and turns, rolls and dives, but not a word was heard. He did all his tricks over again, but still not a word. They landed and the pilot turned to Joe: “By golly, I did everything I could think of to get you to yell out, but you didn’t.”

Joe replied: “Well, I was gonna say something when Martha fell out, but $10 is $10.”

Daily Joke: There was a job opening in the country’s most prestigious law firm

There was a job opening at the country’s most prestigious law firm and it finally came down to Robert and Paul.

Both graduated top of their class from law school. Both came from good families. Both were equally attractive and well spoken. It was up to the senior partner to choose one, so he took each man aside and asked: “Why did you become a lawyer?”

In seconds, he chose Paul.

Baffled, Robert took Paul aside.

“I don’t understand why I was rejected. When Mr Armstrong asked me why I became a lawyer, I said that I had the greatest respect for the law, that I’d lay down my life for the Constitution and that all I wanted was to do right by my clients. What in the world did you tell him?”

“I said I became a lawyer because of my hands,” Paul replied.

“Your hands? What do you mean?”

“Well, I took a look one day and there wasn’t any money in either of them!”
