Grocery Shopping
A man observed a woman in the grocery
store with a three year old girl in her
basket. As they passed the cookie
section, the child asked for cookies and
her mother told her “no”. The little girl
immediately began to whine and fuss, and
the mother said quietly, “Now Ellen, we
just have half of the aisles left to go
through; don’t be upset. It won’t be long.”
He passed the mother again in the candy
aisle. Of course, the little girl began to
shout for candy. When she was told she
couldn’t have any, she began to cry. The
mother said, “There, there, Ellen, don’t cry.
Only two more aisles to go, and then we’ll
be checking out.” The man again
happened to be behind the pair at the
check-out, where the little girl immediately
began to clamor for gum and burst into a
terrible tantrum upon discovering there
would be no gum purchased today. The
mother patiently said, “Ellen, we’ll be
through this check out stand in five
minutes, and then you can go home and
have a nice nap.” The man followed them
out to the parking lot and stopped the
woman to compliment her. “I couldn’t
help noticing how patient you were with
little Ellen….” The mother broke in, “My
little girl’s name is Tammy…..I’m Ellen.

The longer you've been married, the funnier this becomes!!



An elderly married couple was at home watching TV. The husband had the remote and

was switching back and forth between a fishing channel and the porn channel. The wife

became more and more annoyed and finally said, "For heaven's sake, Harold, leave it on

the porn channel. You already know how to fish!"
