My Favorite Recent Joke

[BloomEtta]

I was at my daughter's the other night. I asked her for a newspaper.

She said, "Oh Mom, this is a new day! Get with the times. Here is my iPad."

Man, that bloody fly never knew what hit it!

Got a favorite one of your own?

When I finally got it, that was pretty funny.

It reminds me of the u-tube clip of the grandfather who puts the iPad to yet another interesting use...

Excuse the following link which is the best I could do on the iPad. Just scroll down to the one that mentions the 'grandfather'

As a bagpiper, I play many gigs. Recently I was asked by a

funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no

family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's cemetery in the

Kentucky back country.

As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost and, being a typical man, I

didn't stop for directions.

I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and

the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and crew left and

they were eating lunch.

I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of the

grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn't know what

else to do, so I started to play. The workers put down their lunches and began

to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and

friends.

I played like I've never play ed before for this homeless man.

And as I played 'Amazing Grace,' the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept,

we all wept together. When I finished I packed up my bagpipes and started for my

car. Though my head hung low, my heart was full.

As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, "I never seen

nothin' like that before and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty

years."
