For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Hi everyone! It’s that time of the week again when I bring you some jokes to laugh about, or chuckle with, or groan over, or maybe wish they had never come along. Whatever the case, I know you enjoy them in some sort of way which keeps me bringing them to you. Please feel free to laugh as much as you would like!

Taking great pains to be specific, the new auto-shop teacher on our staff
explained to three of his students that he wanted them to clean a car that
was parked outside. He gave them two extension cords, the vacuum cleaner, a
bucket, rags and the car keys. He mentioned that the car was one to be used
in his class.
Later he went out and discovered them sitting in the car, feet up on the
dashboard, listening to the stereo. “Why aren’t you vacuuming the car?” he
asked.
“Because the extension cord wouldn’t reach,” was the reply.
Exasperated, the teacher stated, “That’s why I gave you two.”
“We tried the other one,” a student said, “but it wouldn’t reach either.”

While waiting for my first appointment in the reception room of a new dentist, I noticed his certificate, which bore his full name.
Suddenly, I remembered that a tall, handsome boy with the same name had been in my high school class almost 50 years ago.
Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought. This balding, gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was too old to have been my classmate.
After he had examined my teeth, I asked him if he had attended the local high school.
“Yes,” he replied.
“When did you graduate?” I asked.
He answered, “In 1953.”
“Why, you were in my class!” I exclaimed.
He looked at me closely and then asked, “What did you teach?”

After dinner one evening, my dad starting entertaining our dinner guest by playing the piano.
At one point he turned to the visitor and said, “I understand you love music?”
“Yes,” murmured the guest politely. “But never you mind, you keep right on playing…”
