I go down the street to the mega-grocery store most days. I ride around the place on the electric cart, buy a couple things, and that is my entertainment for the day. I know most of the door greeters, and chat them up on the way in. One old guy likes a laugh. SO I told him a joke:
A priest, a rabbi, and a duck walk into a bar. Bartender says, "What is this, a joke?"
Yes, an old favorite joke.
SO I say the first line, a priest, a rabbi, and a duck walk into a bar.
He grins and looks with anticipation.
Then I say the bartender says "What is this, a joke?"
And he grins and looks at me with anticipation.
...crickets...
I said, "That was the joke..."
"Oh, I was waiting for a punch line."
So I explained the joke, and he then agreed it was funny.
(sigh) Some crowds are a tough sell.
Chicken, duck, fowl joke... I know they are all related somehow.
Yeah, I wasn't sure beer can chicken would cross the pond well.
