This month, I shared the jokes I found on Facebook and tried to tell as many as possible to friends and family throughout the month. I'm terrible at telling jokes, so this was a fun challenge each day. And, although most the jokes are kind of terrible, I'm walking away with a few good jokes in my pocket.
To cap off the month, I joined a 6 week improv class. I've had more fun that I could have imagined. It's just ridiculous fun! Silly craziness! And something that is pure fun, for fun and nothing else. Added bonus, I found some wonderful, fun new friends too!

ticket to bring her back from Hawaii'

26/31: Taxi
"Interesting Experience...
I would like to share an experience with you about drinking and driving. As you well know, most of us have been lucky over the years not to have had brushes with the law on our way home from various social engagements.
However, a couple of nights ago, I was out for a few drinks with some friends. I had several glasses of beer and finished things off with a tequila shot. Not a good idea.
Knowing full well that I was, at least slightly, over the limit, I did something I've never done before. I took a taxi home.
Sure enough I came up on a police road block. But because I was in a taxi, they waved it past.
I arrived home safely, without a single incident; a real surprise! I have
never driven a taxi before and am not sure where I got it."
(Don't drink and dive. It's dumb.)

25/31: Baby
"A woman gets on a bus with her baby. The bus
driver says: ''Ugh, that's the ugliest baby I've ever seen!'' The former
walks to the rear of the bus and sits down, fuming. She says to a man
next to her: ''The driver just insulted me!'' The man says: ''You go up
there and tell him off. Go on, I'll hold your monkey for you.''

24/31: Cars
"There's a man trying to cross the street. But
when he steps off the curb a car comes screaming around the corner and
heads straight for him. The man walks faster, trying to hurry across the
street, but the car changes lanes and is still coming at him. So the
guy turns around to go back, but the car changes lanes again and is
still coming at him. By now, the car is so close and the man so scared
that he just stops in the middle of the road. The car gets real close,
then swerves at the last possible moment and stops next to the man. The
driver rolls down the window. It's a squirrel. He says, "See, it's not
as easy as it looks."

22/31: Cab Driver
"A cabbie picks up a Nun. She gets into the cab, and notices that the VERY handsome cab driver won't stop staring at her.
She asks him why he is staring.
He replies: "I have a question to ask you, but I don't want to offend you."
She answers, "My son, you cannot offend me. When you're as old as I am and have been a nun as long as I have, you get a chance to see and hear just about everything. I'm sure that there's nothing you could say or ask that I would find offensive."
"Well, I've always had a fantasy to have a nun kiss me."
She responds, "Well, let's see what we can do a about that: #1, you have to be single and #2, you must be Catholic."
The cab driver is very excited and says, "Yes, I'm single and Catholic!"
"OK" the nun says. "Pull into the next alley."
The nun fulfills his fantasy, with a kiss that would make a hooker blush.
But when they get back on the road, the cab driver starts crying.
"My dear child," says the nun, "why are you crying?"
"Forgive me but I've sinned. I lied and I must confess, I'm married and I'm Jewish."
The nun says, "That's OK...... My name is Kevin and I'm going to a Halloween party."
She asks him why he is staring.
He replies: "I have a question to ask you, but I don't want to offend you."

21/31: Robbery
"An elderly woman called 911 on her cell phone to report that her car had been broken in to.
She is hysterical as she explains her situation to the dispatcher: 'They've stolen the stereo, the steering wheel, the brake pedal and even the accelerator!' she cried.
The dispatcher said, 'Stay calm. An officer is on the way.'
A few minutes later, the officer radios in. 'Disregard.' He says. 'She got in the back-seat by mistake.'"

15/31: Blonde
"A young ventriloquist is touring the clubs
and one night he's doing a show in a small club in a small town in
Arkansas. With his dummy on his knee, he's going through his usual dumb
blonde jokes when a blonde woman in the fourth row stands on her chair
and starts shouting: ''I've heard enough of your stupid blonde jokes.
What makes you think you can stereotype women that way? What does the
color of a person's hair have to do with her worth as a human being?
It's guys like you who keep women like me from being respected at work
and in the community and from reaching our full potential as a person,
because you and your kind continue to perpetuate discrimination against,
not only blondes, but women in general...and all in the name of
humor!''
The ventriloquist is embarrassed and begins to apologize, when the blonde yells, ''You stay out of this, mister! I'm talking to that little jerk on your knee!''

12/31: Students
"Four students from Los Angeles drove up to
Santa Barbara for the weekend. UCSB lived up to reputation with the best
bars and campus parties. The students had such a wild time, they didn’t
leave any time to study for their Monday exam in organic chemistry.
They devised a story to tell their professor about how they travelled to
UCSB to conduct research and study, but ended
up with a flat tire on their way back to LA. They promised to take the
test on Tuesday morning, first thing. The professor agreed. After
studying all day Monday, the students arrived to class Tuesday fully
prepared for their exam.
She placed them in separate rooms and handed each of them an exam (which was out of 100 points) and told them to begin. The first problem was worth five points. It was something simple about free radical formation. Cool, they all thought in their separate rooms, "this is going to be easy."
Each finished the problem and then turned the page. Question 2 (for 95 points): Which tire?"

Joketober 1/31
A couple of hunters are out in
the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be
breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other guy whips out
his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the
operator: “My friend is dead! What can I do?”
The operator, in a calm soothing voice says: “Just take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead.” There is a silence, then a shot is heard.
The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: “OK, now what?"
*Most Joketobers were found on the web. Sorry I don't have the sources!
