The Art of Borrowing

"Septic Tanks"*
*
A young blond man went to an auction and bought
six septic tanks at a bargain price. He took them
home and stashed them in his backyard.

One afternoon his neighbor, peered over the fence
and saw them.
 
"Hey, neighbor! What are you going to do with all
those septic tanks in your back-yard?"
 
Glancing furtively about him, the blond man walked
over to the fence and whispered in his neighbor's
ear. "Shhh! When I learn to drive them things, I'm
going to invade Mexico!"

"The Art of Borrowing"*

Every time the man next door headed toward
Robinson's house, Robinson knew he was
coming to borrow something.
 
"He won't get away with it this time," muttered
Robinson to his wife. "Watch this."
 
"Er, I wonder if you'd be using your power-saw
this morning," the neighbor began.
 
"Gee, I'm awfully sorry," said Robinson with a
smug look, "but the fact of the matter is, I'll be
using it all day."
 
"In that case," said the neighbor, "you won't be
using your golf clubs, mind if I borrow them?"
