"Whatever you may look like, marry a man your own age. 

  As your beauty fades, so will his eyesight."

is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing."

11 of them would never wear the same outfit in public."

 
"Best way to get rid of kitchen odors: Eat out."

 
"A bachelor is a guy who never made the same mistake once."

 
"I want my children to have all the things I couldn't afford.

Then I want to move in with them."

  This is the only thing that keeps some parents going."

  a bank has just been robbed."

to walk and talk and the next twelve telling them to sit down and shut up."

  my scenic checks show a ghetto."

  Turned out to be a trick knee."

"Tranquilizers work only if you follow the advice

  on the bottle – keep away from children."

 
"The reason the golf pro tells you to keep your head down

  is so you can't see him laughing."

 
"You know you're old if they have discontinued your blood type."
