Bob was KING of the One-liners




Few could escape Grandpa Bob's sense of humor. He was the king of the one-liner jokes. For whatever reason, I remember a lot of Bob's jokes centered around monkeys or lawnmowers. I remember three in particular that he re-told so many times that part of the joke was that, well, he would re-tell it, knowing you were going to groan afterward.

Q: What did the monkey say when he got his tail caught in the lawnmower?
A: it wont be long now! (*groan*)

Q: How do frenchmen say they are going to cut the grass?
A: mowa-dee-laun! (*groan*)

Q: What do you call a car that doesn't run -- in Spanish?
A: No-va. {as on chevy nova. get it? "no va" means "doesn't go" in Spanish. Get it now? har!}
(*ay...carumba...groan*)
