*Two ninety-year-old men, Moe and Sam, have been friends all their lives. It seems that Sam is dying of cancer, and Moe comes to visit him every day.

"Sam," says Moe, "You know how we have both loved baseball all our lives, and how we played minor league ball together for so many years. Sam, you have to do me one favor. When you get to Heaven, and I know you will go to Heaven, somehow you've got to let me know if there's baseball in Heaven."

Sam looks up at Moe from his deathbed, and says, "Moe, you've been my best friend many years. This favor, if it is at all possible, I'll do for you."

And shortly after that, Sam passes on.

It is midnight a couple of nights later. Moe is sound asleep when he is awakened by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calls out to him, "Moe.... Moe...."

"Who is it?" says Moe sitting up suddenly.* "Who is it?"

"Moe, it's me, Sam."

"Come on. You're not Sam. Sam just died."

"I'm telling you," insists the voice.* "It's me, Sam!"

"Sam? Is that you? Where are you?"

"I'm in heaven," says Sam, "and I've got to tell you, I've got really good news and a little bad news."

"So, tell me the good news first," says Moe.

"The good news," says Sam "is that there is baseball in heaven. Better yet, all our old buddies who've gone before us are there. Better yet, we're all young men again. Better yet, it's always springtime and it never rains or snows. And best of all, we can play baseball all we want, and we never get tired!"

"Really?" says Moe, "That is fantastic, wonderful beyond my wildest dreams! But, what's the bad news?"

"You're pitching next Tuesday"

Those who jump off a bridge in Paris are in Seine

A backward poet writes inverse

A man's home is his castle, in a manor of speaking

Dijon vu - the same mustard as before

A hangover is the wrath of grapes

Does the name Pavlov ring a bell?

Reading while sunbathing makes you well red

When two egotists meet, it's an I for an I

A bicycle can't stand on its own because it is two tired

What's the definition of a will?* It's a dead give away

Time flies like an arrow Fruit flies like a banana

In democracy your vote counts In feudalism your count votes

She was engaged to a boyfriend with a wooden leg but broke it off

A chicken crossing the road is poultry in motion

With her marriage, she got a new name and a dress

The man who fell into an upholstery machine is fully recovered

You feel stuck with your debt if you can't budge it

Local Area Network in Australia: the LAN down under

He often broke into song because he couldn't find the key

Every calendar's days are numbered

A lot of money is tainted It taint yours and it taint mine

A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat

He had a photographic memory that was never developed

A plateau is a high form of flattery

A midget fortune-teller who escapes from prison is a small medium at large

Those who get too big for their britches will be exposed in the end

Once you've seen one shopping center, you've seen a mall

Baker's trade bread recipes on a knead-to-know basis

Santa's helpers are subordinate clauses

I have entered the "snapdragon" part of my life......Part of me has snapped...........* and the rest of me is draggin'.
love and kisses, Jan
