Border Dispute
The Michaels family owned a small farm in Canada, just yards away from the North Dakota border.
Their land had been the subject of a minor dispute between the United States and Canada for generations.
Mrs. Michaels, who had just celebrated her ninetieth birthday, lived on the farm with her son and three grandchildren.
One day, her son came into her room holding a letter. “I just got some news, Mom,” he said. “The government has come to an agreement with the people in Washington. They’ve decided that our land is really part of the United States. We have the right to approve or disapprove of the agreement. What do you think?”
“What do I think?” his mother said. “Jump at it! Call them right now and tell them we accept! I don’t think I could stand another one of those Canadian winters!”
A blonde go icefishing
A blonde decides to go icefishing so she heads out early one morning, sets her equipment up on the ice, and begins to drill a hole. She then hears a voice from above that says, “There’s no fish down there.”
Disappointed, she drags her equipment 50 yards further onto the ice. Again she begins drilling a hole and hears the voice again: “There’s no fish down there.”
Disgusted, she drags her equipment clear to the other side of the ice, again she begins to drill, and the voice repeats, “There’s no fish down there.”
She looks up and says, “God, is that you?”
The voice replies, “No, it’s the arena manager.”
