Strength

    What is strength?

    Strength is the capacity to break a chocolate bar into four pieces with your bare hands and then eat just one piece.

    For the dog

    A woman went to the counter to purchase a drinking bowl for her dog. The clerk asked, “Would you like it inscribed ‘For The Dog?’”

    “It doesn’t really matter,” the woman answered. “My husband doesn’t drink water and the dog can’t read.”

    High school reunion

    My wife and I were sitting at a table at her high school reunion, and she kept staring at a drunken man swigging his drink as he sat alone at a nearby table.

    I asked her, “Do you know him?”

    “Yes,” she sighed, “He’s my old boyfriend. I understand he took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear he hasn’t been sober since.”

    “My God!” I said. “Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?”

    And that’s when the fight started.
