On a visit to Chicago
On a visit to Chicago, a woman was eager to visit a posh department store a few blocks from her hotel. Her husband agreeably hailed a cab. "The lady wants to go to Neiman Marcus," he told the driver. The cabby looked over his shoulder at them. "And the gentleman?" he asked. "Does he want to go to the bank?"
Marriage
"Honey," said this husband to his wife, "I invited a friend home for supper." "What? Are you crazy? The house is a mess, I didn't go shopping, all the dishes are dirty, and I don't feel like cooking a fancy meal!" "I know all that." "Then, why did you invite a friend for supper?" "Because the poor guy is thinking about getting married."
Blood Pressure
When a doctor remarked on a new patient?s extraordinarily ruddy complexion, he said, "High blood pressure, Doc. It runs in my family." "Your mother's side or your father's?" the doctor asked. "Neither," the patient replied. "It's from my wife's family." "Oh, come now," said the doctor "How could your wife's family give you high blood pressure?" He sighed. "You oughta meet 'em sometime, Doc!"
Marriage
The wife saw her husband frustrated reading the Marriage Certificate from top to bottom, flip it over, and then read it again... She asked: "Honey, what are you looking for?" He answered: "Nothing dear, I'm just looking for the expiration date."
