The Last Nickle
 

In lieu of yesterdays post, I thought we could all use a laugh.A well-dressed, attractive, and serious looking woman in a gray business suit is sitting at the coffee bar reading a newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee. At the sound of the commotion, she looks up, puts her coffee cup down, neatly folds the newspaper and places it on it on the counter, gets up from her seat and makes her way, unhurried, across the restaurant.

Reaching the boy, the woman carefully drops his pants; takes hold of the boy's testicles and starts to squeeze and twist, gently at first and then ever so firmly. After a few seconds the boy convulses violently and coughs up the last nickel, which the woman deftly catches in her free hand.

Releasing the boy's testicles, the woman hands the nickel to the father and walks back to her seat at the coffee bar without saying a word.

As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no ill effects, the father rushes over to the woman and starts thanking her saying, "I've never seen anybody do anything like that before, it was fantastic. Are you a doctor? "

"No," the woman replied, "I'm with the Internal Revenue Service."

When I'm on travel for the company, I make it a point to call home every Thursday and let her know my schedule for the weekend, as well as get caught up on the news on the home front. My call today was going smoothly, when she dropped a bit of a bombshell ...

"Dear, last Monday morning, little Johnny was having a tremendous problem with his stool - he was nearly in tears. Finally, his bowels moved, and he passed a quarter. Later that same day, he started crying again, and that time he passed two nickels and a dime..."

At this point in the conversation, I exploded, "Damn it all, woman, why wait until now to tell me?"

She snapped back, "Well, I didn't want to bother you, and besides, I've been watching him very closely since then -- but there's been no change ............... "

Tee hee

The first one was hilarious.

I go a laugh out of both, keep them coming.
