Holding on to the Pole

"Holding on to the Pole"

While riding the bus, my mother noticed a young
man, who was holding onto the same pole, staring at her.
Eventually, he said, "Excuse me. This is my stop."

Since she wasn't blocking his way, she was
confused. "Well," she said," go ahead."

"And this is my pole," he said.

My mother was completely perplexed until the
young man added, "I just bought it at the hardware store."

And with that, he picked up his pole and carried it off the bus.

"First Date... or Not"

A guy walks into a bookstore. Not looking for anything
in particular. On his way to the back of the store, he
spots something of interest. A book with a very
interesting title, "Dating for the New Millennium.
What Women Want."

So he picks it up and opens it to a random page.

"Chapter 1 The First Date."

He glances the chapter over for a few minutes, and
rushes out of the bookstore to call a girl he's
wanted to ask out for quite a while.

When he gets home, picks up the phone and
calls her. She answers, "Hello?"

He says, "Hi, Jessica? Listen, I was wondering if
you would want to go see a movie with me tonight?"

She says, "Sure, I don't see anything wrong with that."

He gets excited. He thought she'd say, "No Way!"
but she didn't. So, he decided to take it one step further.

He asks, "Great, well how about dinner before the movie?"

She replies, "Sure, that would be great too!"

"Fine, I'll pick you up about 9, you should be
finished eating by then."
