Here, Joe-I'm taking your last cup of coffee, but I will make another pot for anyone who comes in before I have to leave for work...
I know it's early, Joe, but set me up a cold, amber one, or even a little darker and I will see if I can find a story to start your day.
Hi Joe. Make mine a nice irish coffee and a Partagas corona.
Here are a couple of tidbits to entertain all.

"Not too good," says the mother. "I've been very weak."

She says, "Because I haven't eaten in 38 days."
The man says, "That's terrible. Why haven't you eaten in 38 days?"
The mother answers, "Because I didn't want my mouth to be filled with food if you should call."

A Greek boy comes home from school and tells his mother he's been given a part in the school play.

Greek telegram: "Begin worrying. Details to follow."
-----------------------------------
The year is 2012 and the United States of America has recently elected the first Greek President.
So the President-elect calls up his mother a few weeks after election day;
"So ma, I assume you will be coming to my inauguration?"
"I don't think so. It's a ten hour drive, and your father isn't as young as he used to be, and my gout is acting up again."
"Don't worry about it Mom, I'll send Air Force One to pick you up and take you home.
And a limousine will pick you up at your door."
"I don't know. Everybody will be so fancy, I don't know what on Earth I would wear."
"Oh mom," replies the new president, "don't worry about it.
I'll make sure you have a wonderful gown by Christian Dior."
"Honey," Mom complains, "you know I can't eat those rich foods you and your friends like to eat"
The President-to-be responds, "Don't worry Mom. The entire affair is going to be handled by
the best Greek caterer in New York, and you can tell him how to make the Tiropitakia.
Mom, I want you to come."
So Mom agrees and so on January 21, 2013, the son is being sworn in as
President of the United States of America. In the front row sits the
New President's mother, who leans over to a Senator sitting next to her;
"You see that man over there with his hand on the Bible, becoming President of the United States?"
The Senator whispers back, "Yes I do."
"His brother is a doctor."

NO CABBAGE FOR YOU
Two elderly ladies meet at the launderette after not seeing one another for some time.
After inquiring about each other's health one asked how the other's husband was doing.
"Oh! Ted died last week. He went out to the garden to dig up a cabbage for dinner,
had a heart attack and dropped down dead, right there in the middle of the vegetable patch!"
"Oh dear! I'm very sorry," replied her friend. "What did you do?"
"Opened a can of peas instead."
------------------------------------------------------------
Cash, check or charge?" I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase.
As she fumbled for her wallet I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse.
"So, do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked.
"No," she replied, "but my husband refused to come shopping with me,
so I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him."
Have a great weekend!
