34. Late one Saturday evening, I was awakened by the ringing of my phone. In a sleepy, grumpy voice, I

said "hello". The party on the other end of the line paused for a moment, before rushing breathlessly into

a lengthy speech. "Mom, this is Susan, and I'm sorry I woke you up, but I had to call because I'm going

to be a little late getting home. See, Dad's car has a flat, but it's not my fault. Honest! I don't know what

happened. The tire just went flat while we were inside the theatre. Please don't be mad, OK?" Since I

don't have any daughters, I knew the person had dialled my number by mistake. "I'm sorry, dear," I

replied, "but you've reached the wrong number. I don't have a daughter named Susan." "Wow, Mom," the young woman's voice replied, "I didn't think you'd be this mad."

-----------------------------------

35. A man, in a hurry taking his 8-year-old son to school, made a turn at a red light where it was prohibited. "Uh-oh, I just made an illegal turn!" the man said.

---------------------------------------

36. The car stalled at a traffic light, and a cop watched from across the street as the vehicle sat through red, yellow, green, red, yellow, green. Finally, he walked over to the struggling motorist and said, "What's wrong, sir, don't we have a color you like?"

---------------------------------------

The child was a typical four-year-old girl - cute, inquisitive, bright as a new penny. When she expressed difficulty in grasping the concept of marriage, her father decided to pull out his wedding photo album, thinking visual images would help. One page after another, he pointed out the bride

arriving at the church, the entrance, the wedding ceremony, the recessional, the reception, etc. "Now

do you understand?" he asked. "I think so," she said, "is that when mommy came to work for us?"

---------------------------------------

38. One day, Doug was playing ball in the house, which was strictly against the rules, and he accidentally broke a vase in the living room. "Oh, no, my mom's gonna kill me!", he thought
