You'd never believe

Wrong Woman Asks Wrong Woman About Wrong Woman

Woman 1: "I can't believe that Mary Matalin is going to marry James Carville."

Woman 2: "You mean Marlee Matlin, the actress that's deaf?"

Woman 1: "No Mary Matalin, the Repulican Campaign manager. (To Woman 3) Hey, do you know who Mary Matalin is?"

Woman 3: "You mean Jesus' mother?"

Curing a cough

Bill was a clerk in a small drugstore, but he was not much of a salesman. He could never find the item the customer wanted. Janice, the owner, had about enough and warned Bill that the next sale he missed would be his last.

Just then a man came in coughing. He asked Bill for their best cough syrup. Try as he might, Bill could not find the cough syrup. Remembering the warning from his boss, he sold the man a box of Ex-Lax and told him to take it all at once.

The customer did as Bill said and then walked outside and leaned against a lamp post. Janice had seen the whole thing and came over to ask Bill what had transpired.

"He wanted something for his cough, but I couldn't find the darn cough syrup. So, I substituted Ex-Lax and told him to take it all at once." Bill explained.

"Ex-Lax?!! That won't cure a cough!" Janice shouted angrily.

"Sure it will!" Bill said, pointing at the man leaning on the lamp post. "Just look at him, he's afraid to cough."
