More Romantic Humor...





Such a Lovely Name


Two senior couples were strolling along, wives in front, husbands in back
chatting.

Bernie turns to Marv and says, "Ya know, we went to a new restaurant last
night and had the best meal ever. Great prices, too."

Marv smiles and says, "Well, we like to eat out, too. So what was the name
of this fine new eatery?"

Bernie says, "You'll going to have to help me out here a little. What's the name
of that pretty flower, smells sweet, often red, grows on a thorn bush?"

Marv grins again, "Well now, Bernie, sounds like a rose to me... "

"Yes, yes, that's it!" cries Bernie, then he calls ahead to his wife...

"Rose, Rose, honey! What was the name of that little restaurant we ate at
last night?"

Sending Out Valentine's Day Cards

A fellow walks into a post office to see a middle-aged, balding man standing
at the counter methodically placing "Love" stamps on bright pink envelopes
with hearts all over them. He then takes out a perfume bottle and starts
spraying scent all over them.

His curiosity is getting the better of him and he goes up to the balding man and
asks him what he is doing.

The man replies, "I'm sending out one thousand Valentine cards signed,
'Guess who?'"

"But why?" asks the man.

"I'm a divorce lawyer," the man replies.

Romantic and Unromantic

Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you.
But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead,
the sugar bowl's empty and so is your head.

Kind, intelligent, loving and hot.
This describes everything you're not.

Every time I see your face.
I wish I were in outer space.

My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
Marrying you screwed up my life.

Beauty is on the inside, but some may doubt,
If it's true, I'd prefer you inside out.

I see your face when I am dreaming.
That's why I always wake up screaming.

My love you take my breath away.
What have you stepped in, to smell this way?

Reality TV

I realized that my five-year-old grandson had been watching too many
reality TV shows the day we attended a relative's wedding.

As the four bridesmaids walked down the aisle toward the front of the
church, he turned to me and asked:

"Is this where the groom decides which one he wants to marry?"

Happy Groundhog Day, jokes...




A Wonderful Day


Over breakfast one morning, a woman said to her husband, "I'll bet you
don't know what day this is?"

"Of course I do," he answered as if he was offended, and left for
the office.

The doorbell rang at 10 a.m., and when the wife opened the door,
she was handed a box of a dozen long stemmed red roses. At 1:00 p.m.,
a foil-wrapped, two-pound box of her favorite chocolates was delivered.
Later, a boutique delivered a designer dress.

The woman couldn't wait for her husband to come home.

"First the flowers, then the chocolates and then the dress!" she exclaimed.

"I've never had a more wonderful Groundhog Day in my life!"

Happy Groundhog Day!

Groundhog Day is kind of special to me, as my dad was born in Punxsy.
I am one of a few people who live outside of Punxsutawney who can spell it
correctly. As many as 30,000 come to see Phil prognosticate. I wonder what
he will predict this year? If you would like to know what is going on this
morning, visit the link below. He comes out of his den at 7:30 a.m., but it can
take him some time to make his prediction.
