5th's Shopping Joke
|
| A lady decided to have a
big turkey for Christmas dinner instead of the usual ham.
She picked through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store,
but couldn't find one big enough for her family. So she asked
a stock boy, "Do these turkeys get any bigger?"
The stock boy replied, "No ma'am, they stop growing after
their heads are cut off." |
