"Suitor Quips"
Mother: "Soooo... you want to become
my son-in-law."
Suitor: "No, but I don't see any other way
to marry your daughter."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Father: "I spent $45,000 on my daughter's
education, and you want to marry her on
your income of $ 14,000 a year???"
Suitor: "Well... look at it this way 'Dad' --
that's over a 30% annual return on your
investment."

"Train"
A man had to attend a large convention
in Chicago. On this particular trip he
decided to bring his wife. When they
arrived at their hotel and were shown to
their room, the man said: "You rest here
while I register for the convention - I'll be
back within an hour."
The wife lies down on the bed ... just then,
an elevated train passes by very close to
the window and shakes the room so hard
she's thrown out of the bed. Thinking this
must be a freak occurrence, she lies down
once more. Again a train shakes the room
so violently, she's pitched to the floor.
Exasperated, she calls the front desk, asks
for the manager. The manager says he'll be
right up. The manager (naturally) is skeptical
but the wife insists the story is true.
"Look, ... lie here on the bed -- you'll be
thrown right to the floor!"
So he lies down next to the wife. Just then
the husband walks in. "What," he says, "are
you doing here?"
The manager calmly replies, "Would you
believe I'm waiting for a train?
