YARNS!
Yarns are not jokes about ball
of wool but merely jokes that are slightly longer than average. Here's some
spun yarns to brighten up those dull moment!
Once upon a time there was a pilot
who had his own old-fashioned aeroplane. It had an open cockpit and the pilot
would sit in the front and his passangers just behind him. One day he offered
to take an elderly couple up in the aeroplane. They had never been in a plane
before and were very excited.
'You will enjoy the flight,'
said the pilot. 'But you must promise to be good and not do any backseat driving.'
The old couple got into the plane
and sat behind the pilot. The pilot flew the plane up into the sky and flew
around twenty minutes. When he landed he said to the old man, 'You did very
well for your first flight. I didn't hear a word out of your.
'That's right, ' said the old
man. 'It wasn't easy. I almost said something back there when my wife fell out.'
And here's another one....
A grandfather took granson to the
opera for the very first time as a special treat. The conductor began to wave
his baton and the soprano started to sing her famous aria. The boys was fascinated
by everything he saw and heard, but eventually he turned to his grandfather
and asked, 'Why is he hitting her with his stick?' 'He's not hitting her,' answer
the grandfather wih a smile. 'Well if he's not hitting her, why is she screaming?'

Take time to be friendly -
It is the road to happiness.
Take time to dream -
It is hitching your wagon to a star.
Take time to love and to be loved
-
It is the privilege of the gods.
Take time to look around -
It is too short a day to be selfish.
Take time to laugh -
It is the music of the soul,
(OLD ENGLISH PRAYER)
