International Joke Day

My little boy had a fantastic idea yesterday: We should institute an International Joke Day. This is a day when everyone tells every one else a great joke, to cheer up the whole world.

I think he is a genius, and so I officially declare that tomorrow, Monday 22 April, is International Joke Day.

IF YOU HAVE A JOKE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE, PLEASE WRITE IT IN THE COMMENTS BOX BELOW.

I’ve been out of the blogosphere for a long time because of my son’s illness, but my brave little lad is getting better now. He has stopped vomiting and is able to go back to school, even though he doesn’t have the stamina to keep up with all his work. Thank you to everyone who has sent us kind words of sympathy and encouragement.

Well, without further ado, here are our jokes to kick off Joke Day. First, a couple from the late, great Tommy Cooper:

A dog bit a chunk out of my leg the other day.
AĀ  friend of mine said: ā€˜Did you put anything on it?ā€™
I said: ā€˜No, he liked it asĀ  it was.

The police arrested two delinquent youths yesterday. One was drinking battery acid, and the other was eating fireworks.
They charged one, and let the other one off.

And here’s an old favourite of mine from Les dawson:

I went to my doctor and asked for something for persistent wind. He gave me a kite.

And here’s one from my son:

What do you call a psychic midget who has escaped from prison?
A SMALL MEDIUM AT LARGE!

And finally:

The very latest in social networking:
Did you hear that YouTube, Twitter and Facebook have merged into a single social networking website?
It’s called YouTwitFace
