Joke:

An elderly couple, Margaret and Bert, moved to Texas. Bert always wanted a pair of authentic cowboy boots, so, seeing some on sale, he bought them and wore them home. Walking proudly, he sauntered into the kitchen and said to his wife, ‘Notice anything different about me?’ Margaret looked him over. ‘Nope.’ Frustrated, Bert stormed off into the bathroom, undressed and walked back into the kitchen completely naked except for the boots. Again he asked Margaret, a little louder this time, ‘Notice anything different NOW?’ Margaret looked up and exclaimed, ‘Bert, what’s different? It’s hanging down today, it was hanging down yesterday, it’ll be hanging down again tomorrow!’ Furious, Bert yelled, ‘AND DO YOU KNOW WHY IT’S HANGING DOWN, MARGARET?’ ‘Nope’, she replied. ‘IT’S HANGING DOWN, BECAUSE IT’S LOOKING AT MY NEW BOOTS!!!!’ Without changing her expression, Margaret replied, ‘Shoulda bought a hat, Bert. Shoulda bought a hat.’

i never should have been allowed to even take as much out in student loans as they let me. every semester i’d wind up with a fat refund check of thousands of dollars. :-/ if i was smart i would have reduced the amount of loans i guess, but at the same all i saw was free monies and took out the max in student loans every semester. duh. i know. i most definitely wasn’t the only one who was like that though. the regular government student loans they are super lenient on though. i’ve been able to forebear the loans since 2000. the stupid private perkins loan people however are a total thorn on my side. i honestly dont know what to tell them when they hound me other than to be all like im not moving back to harlem so i can pay you people!

These three strings walk into a bar…

Somebody tell a joke.

“I’m casting ditto and *rob* in a Brownstoner version of My Fair Lady.”

I think The Odd Couple might be more a propos.
