CHRISTMAS ANGEL
It was supposed to be a happy time, but it wasn't.
Santa was really angry. It was Christmas Eve and NOTHING
was going right. Mrs. Claus had burned all the Christmas
cookies. The Elves were complaining about not getting
paid for the overtime they had put in while making toys,
and the reindeer had been drinking all afternoon and
were dead drunk. They had taken the sleigh out for a
spin earlier in the day and crashed it into a tree,
breaking off one of the runners.
Santa was beside himself with anger. "I CAN'T believe
it! I've got to deliver millions of presents all over
the world in just a few hours from now and all my
reindeer are drunk, my Elves are on strike and I don't
even have a Christmas tree! I sent that stupid little
Angel out HOURS ago to find a tree and he isn't even
back yet! What am I going to do??"
Just then the Little Angel opened the front door and
stepped in from the snowy night, dragging a Christmas
tree behind him. "Yo, Santa", he says, "Where do you
want me to stick the Christmas tree this year????"
And thus the tradition of Angels perched atop the
Christmas trees came to pass.....

Morris,
an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor to get a
physical.
A few days later the doctor saw Morris walking down
the street with a gorgeous young lady on his arm.
A couple of days later the doctor spoke to Morris and
said, "You're really doing great, aren't you?"
Morris replied, "Just doing what you said, Doc: 'Get
a hot mamma and be cheerful.' "
The doctor said, "I didn't say that. I said, 'You got
a heart murmur. Be
careful.'"

As
a senior citizen was driving down the freeway, his car
phone rang.
Answering, he heard his wife's voice urgently warning
him, "Herman, I just heard on the news that there's a
car going the wrong way on Interstate 280. Please be
careful!"
"It's not just one car," said Herman. "It's hundreds
of
them!"

An
elderly gent was invited to his old friends' home for
dinner one evening.
He was impressed by the way his buddy preceded every
request to his wife with endearing terms-Honey, My Love,
Darling, Sweetheart, Pumpkin, etc...
The couple had been married almost 70 years, and
clearly they were still very much in love.
While the wife was in the kitchen, the man leaned
over and said to his host, "I think it's wonderful that,
after all these years, you still call your wife those
loving pet names."
The old man hung his head. "I have to tell you the
truth," he said, "I forgot her name about 10 years
ago.
