John was tasked with bringing the Christmas decorations up from the basement and start decorating the house and tree. During one trek up the stairs, heavily laden with boxes, he slipped and luckily only fell about two steps before landing square on his behind.
Jill heard the noise and yelled, „What was that thump?”
„I just fell down the stairs,” he explained.
„Anything broken?” asked Jill.
John replied, „No, I’m fine.”
There was just a slight pause before he heard Jill say, „No, I meant my decorations? Are any of them broken?”
Two small-town merchants were visiting New York City for the first time to attend a conference. There was a large party thrown, with lots of food and drink. At the end of the party, they both staggered outside.
One guy crossed the street, while the other stumbled into a subway entrance. When the first guy reached the other side of the street, he noticed the other emerging from the subway stairs.
„Where ya been?” he slurred.
