A man and his
buddy were playing golf when they noticed a funeral
procession going by. The man steps back away from the tee,
removes his hat and places it over his heart until the
parade of cars has gone by.
"Hey," said his
buddy, "that was really nice of you to pay your respects
like that."
"It's the least
I could do," said the guy. "After all, we were married for
35 years."

A very rich
man, who was very close to his money, got together with his
closest friends one day, who happened to be a Priest, a
Doctor, and a Lawyer . The Rich Man was very old, and
getting older, and was thinking about his approaching death.
He told his three friends this, and asked them to do a favor
for him when he died.
"Here are three
envelopes; each contains $100,000, one for each of you. I
don't wish to go to the afterlife without my money. Please,
when I am buried, would each of you throw your envelopes
into the grave on top of my coffin?"
The three
friends agreed, and took the envelopes. Sure enough, the
Rich Man soon died. At his funeral, the Doctor, the Priest
and the Lawyer threw their envelopes on his coffin.
As they were
leaving the funeral, the Priest said to the others, "I have
a confession to make. The church needed a new altar badly,
so I... I took $5,000 to buy it," and looked at his feet.
The Doctor
said, "Well, since you've admitted it, I too must confess
that I took some money. The children's hospital where I work
needed a new, expensive X-ray machine, so I took $30,000 to
buy it."
The Doctor and
the Priest both turned to the lawyer, expecting a similar
confession. Instead, he said "Oh no, I didn't take any of
the money. I put a check for the entire $100,000 in the
envelope!"

A kid with a
few packages in his arms asked a passerby, "Will you open
the gate for me?"
The passerby
said, "Of course, sonny."
The kid
replied," Thanks. The gate was just painted and I didn't
want to get my hands messy."
