Two Drops

Two Drops

-------------------------

A lady went to the bar on a cruise ship, and ordered a Scotch, with two drops of water. The bartender gave her the drink, and she said,

"I'm on this cruise to celebrate my 80th birthday, and it's today."

The bartender said, "Well, since it's your birthday, this one's on me."

As the lady finished her drink, a woman, to her right, said, "I'd like

to buy you a drink, too." 

The lady said, "Thank you, how sweet of

you. OK, then, Bartender, I want another Scotch, with two drops of

water."

"Coming up," said the bartender.

As she finished that drink, a man, to her left, said, "I'd like to buy you a drink too." The lady said, "Thank you very much, my dear. Bartender, I'll have another Scotch, with two drops of water."

"Coming right up," the bartender said.

As he gave her the drink, this time, he said, "Ma'am, I'm dying of curiosity. Why the Scotch with only two drops of water?"

The old woman giggled, and replied, "Sonny, when you're my age,

you've learned how to hold your liquor. Water, however, is a whole other issue.

The Screw

The Screw
-------------------------

It's the summer of 1957 and Harold goes to pick up his date, Peggy Sue.

Harold's a pretty hip guy with his own car and a duck tail hairdo. When he goes to the front door, Peggy Sue's mother answers and invites him in. "Peggy Sue's not ready yet, so why don't you have a seat?" she says.

That's cool. Peggy Sue's mother asks Harold what they're planning to do.

Harold replies politely that they will probably just go to the malt shop or to a drive in movie.

Peggy Sue's mother responds, "Why don't you kids go out and screw? I hear all the kids are doing it."

Naturally this comes as quite a surprise to Harold and he says, "Wha...aaat?"

"Yeah," says Peggy Sue's mother, "We know Peggy Sue really likes to screw; why, she'd screw all night if we let her!"

Harold's eyes light up and he smiles from ear to ear. Immediately, he has revised the plans for the evening.

A few minutes later, Peggy Sue comes downstairs in her little poodle skirt with her saddle shoes, and announces that she's ready to go.

Almost breathless with anticipation, Harold escorts his date out the front door while Mom is saying, "Have a good evening kids," with a small wink for Harold.

About 20 minutes later, a thoroughly disheveled Peggy Sue rushes back into the house, slams the door behind her and screams at her mother: "Dammit, Mom! The Twist! The Twist! It's called The Twist!"

Paintings

Paintings

An artist asked the gallery owner if there had been any interest in his
paintings currently on display.

"I've got good news and bad news," the owner replied. "The good news is
that a gentleman inquired about your work and wondered if it would
appreciate in value after your death. When I told him it would, he
bought all 15 of your paintings."

"That's wonderful!" the artist exclaimed, "What's the bad news?"

With concern, the gallery owner replied, "The guy was your doctor."

"Along with solid new-car sales, average transaction prices on new vehicles continue to strengthen this year," said Alec Gutierrez, senior analyst for Kelley Blue Book.  "Honda average transaction prices remain flat from last month, but are up a respectable 2.5 percent year-over-year with strong Acura prices (up 10.8 percent year-over-year), primarily due to the new MDX.  Chrysler also revealed a solid increase year-over-year, thanks to better performance from its Jeep lineup.  Jeep alone was up 2.5 percent year-over-year on the Grand Cherokee and Wrangler, while the Chrysler brand climbed 2.2 percent from this time last year due to a lower mix of its 200 model."

Manufacturer	Dec-13	Nov-13	Dec-12	MOM %	YOY %
American Honda (Acura, Honda)	$27,772	$27,803	$27,083	-0.1%	2.5%

Industry	$32,890	$32,693	$33,049	0.6%	-0.5%

General Motors average transaction prices saw little change year-over-year; however, the Buick brand was down 4.9 percent due to the introduction of the smaller, more budget-friendly Encore.  In addition, GMC was up 4.4 percent to an average transaction price of $42,370 on the redesigned Sierra, followed by Cadillac (up 1.4 percent), while Chevrolet remained largely flat. 

"Among the domestics, Ford prices were down year-over-year across much of its portfolio, including the F-150 (down 1.3 percent), the Escape (down 1.7 percent) and Focus (down 2.6 percent)," said Karl Brauer, senior analyst for Kelley Blue Book.  "Interestingly, Ford hybrid cars were up 1.5 percent and electric vehicles increased 1 percent.  Lincoln was mostly flat from December 2012, due in large part to the new MKZ, which was up 11 percent."

Toyota prices were up from this time last year across all brands, with Lexus increasing 4.4 percent, followed by Scion at 2.4 percent and Toyota at 2.2 percent.  Lexus' new IS was up 7.9 percent year-over-year to $42,405, while Toyota's new Corolla rose 6.3 percent to $19,527.

Homework

Homework
-------------------------

A little boy was doing his math homework. He said to himself,

"Two plus five, that son of a bitch is seven. Three plus six, that son of a bitch is nine...."

His mother heard what he was saying and gasped, "What are you doing?"

The little boy answered, "I'm doing my math homework, Mum."

"And this is how your teacher taught you to do it?" the mother asked

"Yes," he answered.

Infuriated, the mother asked the teacher the next day, "What are you teaching my son in math?"

The teacher replied, "Right now, we are learning addition."

The mother asked, "And are you teaching them to say two plus two, that son of a bitch is four?"

After the teacher stopped laughing, she answered, "What I taught them was, two plus two, THE SUM OF WHICH, is .
