Great Minds Reminded of Mom
After a long exhausting day a friend of mine Allen headed home. On the road he passed an elderly woman who was standing by a car with a flat tire. If that were his mother he thought he would want someone to help her. With a tired sigh he turned around and drove back.
Just as he reached the stranded woman a truck pulled up and a burly farmer got out. "Kindof reminds you of your mom too?" the man asked as the two of them pitched in together to change the tire for the woman.

Your Biggest Fan
While waiting in a bookstore for a guest author to sign her latest book I leafed through some of the Civil War novels she had written. The woman in line behind me commented "Those are the best books I've ever read. I couldn't put them down." Before I could reply the author frowning looked over and said "Oh come on Mom!"

Head of the Household
My husband Jeff and I came across several problems while assembling our new computer system so we called the help desk. The man on the phone started to talk to Jeff in computer jargon(行业术语) which confused us even more.
"Sir " my husband politely said "please explain what I should do as if I were a four-year-old."
"Okay " the computer technician replied. "Sweetie could you please put your mommy on the phone?"
