I didn’t make any New Year’s resolutions this year.

I didn't have to -- I have several from last year that were never used.

A script owned by Marilyn Monroe was auctioned off.

It was her last script and even had her markings in the margins. The notes had many misspelled words which was surprising because Marilyn was known for her brains.

Shirley Temple’s tap shoes recently sold at auction.

The shoes sold for $20,000. That’s one dollar for every clickity-click.

If those shoes could talk they would say, “Oh my aching tootsies.”

“Instant Replay” in sports

is a way to guaranteeing that every decision will be one that half the people disagree with.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

“Instant Replay” adds so much to watching football.

Usually it adds about an hour and a half.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

For many people the Superbowl

is something to watch in between commercials.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1535

Countdown to the Superbowl is underway.

I only have a month and a half to plan out my halftime menu.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1535

I find watching all the bowl games on New Year’s Day is very educational.

I’ve improved my spelling just by watching the marching bands at halftime.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

That dull thud you hear at about noon on New Year’s Day

is the sound of 700 football teams kicking off.

A shopper at a Wal-Mart in Virginia found a dead deer in a shopping cart

…Thank goodness it wasn’t Costco, otherwise the deer would have been part of a four-pack.

Police in England are looking for a man who stole $160,000 worth of accordions.

…Actually it sounds like an open and shut case…Or more like an open and shut, open and shut, open and shut….

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1535

Police in England are looking for a man who stole $160,000 worth of accordions.

He shouldn’t be hard to find. Just follow the Polka music.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1535

Blood is thicker than water…

…that’s why few people mix it with Scotch.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

Blood is thicker than water…

…but bartenders say it makes a lousy chaser.

Blood is thicker than water…

Blood is thicker than water…

…but don’t try filling your pool with it.

I’m killing two birds with one stone this year

– I’m giving up New Year’s Resolutions for Lent.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

I made it easy on myself.

I picked something for my New Year’s resolution that I had no intention of doing in the first place.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1535

You know you’re getting old

when your “New Year’s Rockin Eve” is an extra glass of prune juice.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1535

You know you’re getting old

when you see Old Man New Year and think, “If only I looked that good.”

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1535

I can’t believe it’s mere coincidence

– every time I begin chewing, someone calls on the phone to sell me something.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

My dog always begs for table scraps while we eat.

That’s why we named her “Telemarketer.”

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

When Pavlov prepared a meal for his dogs, they began to salivate.

When my wife prepares dinner for me, telemarketers begin to salivate.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

An example of cause and effect:

When my wife says, “Dinner is served,” telemarketers immediately begin dialing my house.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

I usually have a glass of wine before dinner, a dessert after,

and 5 or 6 telemarketers calls during.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

Our company is cheap.

Even our software is old. We’re operating on Windows 7 B.C.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

Our company is cheap.

The office is filled with windup computers.

Considering my career, I didn’t climb the corporate ladder

as much as the corporate step-stool.

I would have climbed the corporate ladder,

but I’m afraid of heights.

Pot is legal, denim is the state fabric.

In no time, the bear on California’s state flag will be replaced by a peace sign.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1535

Beginning January 1, denim will be the official state fabric in California.

And their new state motto will be “Where every day is Casual Friday.”

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1535

The department stores are crowded and violent.

It’s like you took all the bowl games and played them at J.C. Penney’s.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

They now have electronic games that you can’t possibly beat.

I say if the games are so damn smart, let them buy their own batteries.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1535

I can remember when department store Santas used to be a jolly old man in a red suit.

He’s still an old man in a red suit, but nowadays he’s only jolly if you pay $15 to have your picture taken with him.

The big toy this year is Hatchimals.

People are spending hundreds of dollars on an egg that hatches into a toy. I’d rather spend $2.89 for 12 eggs you hatch into an omelet.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1535

I took the easy way this New Year’s.

My resolution was to gain 10 pounds. Done!

I read a great book about Harry Houdini

but the title escapes me.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

I’ve just written a great book for “Do-It-Yourselfers.”

It’s 230 pages…all blank.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

I’m writing a book now. It’s a mystery.

I have no idea what it’s about.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

When I read a mystery novel, I like to read the last chapter first.

That way I always know who did it, but I can’t wait to find out what they did.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

Before when I said I can’t make ends meet

I was talking about my budget, now it’s my belt.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1534

I don’t want to say I have bad eating habits.

But my food pyramid was just condemned.

If good people go to Heaven and bad people go to Hell,

mediocre people must have to live forever.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

In the next life, there are only two choices – Heaven or Hell.

You’d think God might have come up with something like a “business class.”

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

Hell may not be that bad of a place

…except maybe for the neighbors.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

Heaven is a place of eternal ecstasy

…unless you happen to hate harp music.

Two heads are better than one…

…unless you’re seated behind that person at the theatre.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

Two heads are better than one…

…especially if you’re an aspirin salesman.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

Two heads are better than one…

…but it does present a challenge to your barber.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1534

Two heads are better than one…

…except that you have to have all your dress shirts custom made.

Christmas cards are great.

You can keep in touch with family and friends without having to get their opinion on every little thing like on Facebook.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1534

I love getting Christmas cards.

It’s nice to get something in the mail that isn’t stamped “Past Due.”

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1534

The first time my granddaughter heard “Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer”

she wanted to know if Santa was texting.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1534

Nowadays so many people are shopping online.

Santa has replaced his elves with the Geek Squad.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1534

If Christmas took place today, Mary and Joseph would still stay in a barn

but they’d would have found it on AirBnB.

Many insurance companies won’t pay for sex enhancing drugs for elderly people.

Apparently, the insurance companies want you to have a long life, they just don’t want you to enjoy it.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1534

The high cost of sex enhancing drugs is causing many older people to give up sex.

Maybe that’s why so many older folks are at the Early Bird Specials, they can’t afford to do anything else at 4 o’clock in the afternoon.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1534

Thomas Edison keys were auctioned off for over $10,000.

The California Bar is considering a new rule banning lawyers from having sex with their clients.

The rule change was in response to numerous complaints but this wasn’t what people were talking about when they said they got screwed by their attorney.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1534

If there wasn’t enough stress during the holidays,

I had to return the Elf on a Shelf I picked up. It was afraid of heights.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1534

I just realized

…there are only 1450 days to the next Presidential Election.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

I was saddened by the election results.

Oh, I didn’t care who won, it just means I now have to go back to watching regular television.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

Have you noticed after the election

that the political pundits are much better at predicting what just happened than they were at predicting what was going to happen.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

Well the election is over.

All the TV pundits who told us virtually nothing are now on the air telling us, “I told you so.”

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

I don’t want to say I don’t move around a lot

but my Fitbit died of boredom.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1533

You know it’s time to lose weight when

you get on an elevator and the first thing the other people do is check the maximum weight sign.

You know you’re out of shape

when you ask Siri for the nearest gym, and she can’t stop laughing.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1533

You know what a Zombie is?

That’s a person who looks like you do until you’ve had your first cup of coffee in the morning.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

Zombies have it tough.

They spend all eternity walking around like that. I only do it for an hour or two after getting out of bed in the morning.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

I was on the set of a zombie movie the other day and I said to one of the actors,

“Boy, how long were you in make-up to look like that?” He said, “I’m a camera man.”

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

They have a lot of shows on TV now about dead people.

I don’t enjoy them. I had enough trouble learning to like ‘live’ people.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

They have a show on TV now called The Walking Dead.

Boy, some people will do anything avoid hiring pall bearers.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

A couple waited until their ninth anniversary to open a wedding gift because it had instructions not to be opened until their first disagreement.

Wouldn’t it be ironic if the disagreement was over when to open it?

A new study has shown that a beer a day reduces your risk of a stroke or heart attack.

Although it does increase your odds of falling off a barstool.

A Baltimore school replaced detention with meditation.

There’s also modified yoga for kids like “Downward Facing Dog Who Ate My Homework.”

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1533

I don’t know why they serve alcohol on airplanes.

My corner bar doesn’t offer to fly me to Milwaukee.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

I think planes fly too fast.

I always seem to arrive at the terminal about 45 minutes before my luggage comes down the ramp.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

If flying is the safest way to travel,

why do they start every flight with the instructions on the fastest way to get out of the plane?

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

When I fly, I don’t like it when the Captain talks on the intercom.

I paid for a pilot, not a conversationalist.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

I have a fear of flying,

but I also have a fear of having to walk to Cleveland.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1533

As we sit down to our Thanksgiving Dinner, I’m reminded of one thing that I’m extremely thankful for

…elastic waist sweatpants.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1533

Some people want to modernize Thanksgiving.

This year instead of Pilgrims and Indians, it’ll be the Democrats and the Republicans.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1533

My wife always makes sure our Thanksgiving table truly captures the uniquely American spirit of the holiday

with decorations made in China.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1533

Why doesn’t television realize that the only way to know what’s going to happen in an election

is to wait until the election is over.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

TV political pundits spend days telling you exactly what’s going to happen.

Then when it doesn’t happen, they spend days telling you why they knew it wouldn’t happen.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

They talk so much about the Presidential campaign on television

that it makes you long for the good old days – before language was invented.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

We’re getting so sick of the election process,

we may skip the inauguration and go right to impeachment.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

Remember the good old days when the customer was always right.

Now it seems we’re always just an annoyance.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

I was in one department store.

I wanted to find a tie to wear to my cousin’s wedding. My cousin was divorced before a sales clerk helped me.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

I picked out some nice men’s clothing the other day.

It went out of style before I could find someone to ring it up for me.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

I have an idea that can save the military a fortune in camouflage clothing

…to make the soldiers invisible, just dress all of them as clerks in a department store.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

My fantasy football team won’t be going to the Superbowl.

In fact, they are so bad they may be banned from watching it on TV.

I asked the librarian where I could find the “self-help” section.

She said, “If you want to find it, you will.”

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

I bought a book on doing pantomime.

It had no words in it.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

I read a book about using mental telepathy.

I thought to myself: why did they have to print this?

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

I read a book about how to read people’s minds.

When I met the author, she said to me, “What did you think of it?”

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1532

I’m not going to any haunted houses this year.

With the Presidential Election coming up, I’m scared enough.

And parents coddle their kids more.

My daughter wouldn’t let my granddaughter dress up as Mr. Peanut in case one of her friends had a peanut allergy.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1532

Halloween has changed since I was a kid.

We used to throw eggs. Today parents are so health conscious they only let their kids throw the whites.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1532

I don’t thin a McDonald’s next to the Vatican is going to be too popular.

The toy surprise instead the Happy Meal is going to be a St. Christopher statue.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1532

The rumor that McDonald’s wants to open a restaurant next to the Vatican is true.

The rumor that Ronald McDonald is going to become a saint, isn’t.

Scientists don’t know what they’ll find on Mars

but the odds are pretty good there will be a Starbucks close by.

Imagine an increase of only .3%.

That means if you are on Social Security, you can rush right out and buy absolutely nothing.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1532

Good news, Social Security recipients will be getting an increase in their monthly payments.

The bad news, it’s only .3%.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1532

Snoopy immediately expressed his feelings regarding MetLife Insurnace’s decision to let him go

but the janitor cleaned it up right away.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1532

Snoopy was unceremoniously let go by MetLife Insurance.

You’d think after 31 years of service the least they could do would be to give him a gold fire hydrant.

By Linda Perret | Issue: 1532

A sure sign it’s Halloween

is when you see the Christmas displays go up.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1532

Modern technology may be great

but my manual typewriter never had a virus. …Although it did crash once but that’s because I dropped it on the floor.

She took me to a paint store.

I’m determined to join a gym this year.

I’m looking around for one that will pick up and deliver.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1531

I bought a stationary bike.

So now that’s two of us at home that are stationary.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1531

I have a treadmill at home, which is wonderful.

I can walk the dog without leaving my easy chair.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1531

I went to the gym last week.

What I’m looking for is an exercise I can do while napping.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1531

I took up jogging for a while

…actually, for about 7 steps.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1531

I say “I’m not getting older; I’m getting better”

During a root canal, a patient ended up with an instrument in his stomach after the dentist accidentally dropped it down his throat.

The dentist was very sorry and guaranteed it wouldn’t happen again. From now on all his patients will have to leave through a metal detector.

By Louis Ferrante | Issue: 1531

During a root canal, a patient ended up with an instrument in his stomach after the dentist accidentally dropped it down his throat.

This shouldn’t cause patients to be alarmed. Remember, four out of five dentists don’t lose their instruments in patients.

Farmers must reduce gas emissions from cows by 40%.

California farmers are now going to be spiking the water troughs with Beano.

I feel bad for the cows, but also for the poor shlub whose job it is to measure this.

So apparently the phrase, “Pull my hoof” has become a thing of the past.

The way they decide on the teams for the NFL playoffs

It’s too complicated for me. Every time the sportscasters try to explain it, I turn the sound down on the TV and do something easier -- like read over my insurance policies.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1501

The way they decide on the teams for the NFL playoffs

is the most confusing set of regulations outside of government.

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1501

The regulations for making the NFL playoffs are so complicated

they make Obamacare look like the rules for playing “Go Fish.”

By Gene Perret | Issue: 1501

Listening to the sportscasters trying to explain which teams might make the NFL playoffs

is like listening to Porky Pig trying to sing “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.”
