"Birthday Cake"
For his wife's birthday party, a doctor ordered
a cake with this inscription:
"You are not getting older,
You are just getting better."
When asked how he wanted it arranged, he said,
"Just put 'You are not getting older' at the top,
and 'You are just getting better' at the bottom."
It wasn't until the good doctor was ready
to serve the cake that he discovered it read:
"YOU ARE NOT GETTING OLDER AT THE TOP,
YOU ARE JUST GETTING BETTER AT THE BOTTOM."

"Credit Card Blues"
A guy got a credit card bill stating that he owed $0.00.
He ignored it and threw it away.. Next month he got
another, did the same thing. The next month they
sent him a very nasty note stating they were going
to cancel his credit card if he didn't send them $0.00.
He called them, talked to them, they said it was "a
glitch" and told him they'd take care of it.
The following month he tried to charge something
and couldn't. He called the credit card company who
again said they'd take care of it. The next day he got
his bill for $0.00 stating that he was very delinquent.
The man figured the credit card company would take
care of it, so he didn't worry. The next month he got
a bill for $0.00 stating that he had 10 days to pay or
his account was going to collection. He mailed the
credit card company a check for $0.00, and the credit
card company's computer processed it, noting that
his account was now paid in full.
A week later, the man's bank called him asking him
what he was doing writing a check for $0.00. He
explained and they said, "Well, your $0.00 check
has caused our check processing software to fail.
We now can't process ANY of our checks from that
day electronically because that $0.00 check is
causing the program to abort."
The man, who had been considering buying his wife
a computer for her birthday, bought her a typewriter
instead.
