A Facebook friend of mine posted this joke, and it made me think of you because I thought it was a funny joke idea, but that the wording and timing were off, draining most of the punch out of it. I know racy jokes aren't really your preference, but I'd be interested in seeing how you would rewrite this joke to make it work better. Here it is: <br /><br />Daughter: Sarah told me where babies come from.<br /><br />Mother: Where would that be dear?<br /><br />Daughter: She said you put Daddy's thingy in your mouth and stuff comes out and goes in your belly and the baby grows.<br /><br />Mother. No, dear. That's where jewelry comes from.pumpkinheadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7823625636675642409.post-969705043844158482012-01-13T23:31:41.350-08:002012-01-13T23:31:41.350-08:00Still!Still!By Ken Levinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305293821975250420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7823625636675642409.post-3264380912440888772012-01-13T23:31:10.449-08:002012-01-13T23:31:10.449-08:00Hey, you never waved at me.
