More Fun Harvest House Books by Bob Phillips
A
Aches and Pains
I ve got so many aches and pains that if a new one comes today, it will be at least two weeks before I can worry about it.
Adam
Sam: My daddy has Washington s sword and Lincoln s hat.
Bill: My father has an Adam s apple.

Eve: Adam, do you love me?
Adam: Who else?
African Chieftain
An African chieftain flew to the United States to visit the president. When he arrived at the airport, a host of newsmen and television cameramen met him. One of the reporters asked the chief if he had a comfortable flight.
The chief made a series of weird noises- Screech, scratch, honk, buzz, whistle, z-z-z-z-z -and then added in perfect English, Yes, I had a very nice flight.
Another reporter asked, Chief, do you plan to visit the Washington Monument while you re in the area?
The chief made the same noises- Screech, scratch, honk, buzz, whistle, z-z-z-z-z -and then said, Yes, and I also plan to visit the White House and the Capitol Building.
Where did you learn to speak such flawless English? asked the next reporter.
The chief replied, Screech, scratch, honk, buzz, whistle, z-z-z-z-z -from the shortwave radio.
Agnostic
Q. What do you get if you cross an insomniac, an agnostic, and a dyslexic?
A. Someone who s up all night wondering if there is a dog.
Agreement
You can easily play a joke on a man who likes to argue-agree with him.
Airlines
A good-sized man approached the ticket counter at United Airlines and asked for a reservation from Los Angeles to New York. The clerk knew that the plane was already filled with baggage and passengers.
How much do you weigh, sir? asked the clerk.
With or without clothes? the passenger asked.
Well, said the clerk, how do you intend to travel?
Allowance
Son to father: About my allowance, Pop. It s fallen below the national average for teenagers.
Amen
The new Army recruit was given guard duty at two a.m. He did his best for a while, but about four a.m. he went to sleep. He awakened to find the officer of the day standing before him.
Remembering the heavy penalty for being asleep on guard duty, this smart young man kept his head bowed for another moment and then looked upward and reverently said, Amen.
Amputated
Doctor: I have some good news and some bad news. Which do you want first?
Patient: Give me the bad news first.
Doctor: We amputated the wrong leg.
Patient: What is the good news?
Doctor: Your other leg doesn t need to be amputated after all.
Anger
A young girl who was writing a paper for school came to her father and asked, Dad, what is the difference between annoyance, anger, and exasperation?
The father replied, It is mostly a matter of degree. Let me show you what I mean. With that the father pulled out his phone and dialed a number at random. To the man who answered the phone, he said, Hello, is Melvin there?
The man answered, There s no one living here named Melvin. Why don t you learn to look up numbers before you dial?
See, said the father to his daughter. That man was not a bit happy with our call. He was probably very busy with something, and we annoyed him. Now watch
The father dialed the number again. Hello, is Melvin there? he asked.
Now look here! came the heated reply. You just called this number and I told you that there s no Melvin here! You ve got a lot of nerve calling again! The receiver slammed down hard.
The father turned to his daughter and said, You see, that was anger. Now I ll show you what exasperation means. He again dialed the same number, and when a violent voice roared, Hello! the father calmly said, Hello, this is Melvin. Have there been any calls for me?
Another Doctor, Please
Looking down at a sick man, the doctor decided to tell him the truth. I feel that I should tell you that you are a very sick man. I m sure you would want to know the facts. I don t think you have much time left. Now, is there anyone you would like to see?
Bending down toward his patient, the doctor heard him feebly answer yes.
Who is it?
In a slightly stronger tone, the patient said, Another doctor.
Anyone-Please!
Boy: Why won t you marry me? Is there someone else?
Girl: There must be.
Apathy
The number one problem in our country is apathy-but who cares!
Applause
Applause before a boring speaker begins his talk is an act of faith.
Applause during the speech is an act of hope.
Applause after he has concluded is an act of charity.
Apple
A man traveling through the country stopped at a small fruit stand and bought some apples. When he commented that they were awfully small, the farmer replied, Yup.
The man took a bite of one of the apples and exclaimed, Not very flavorful, either.
That s right, said the farmer. Good thing they re small, ain t it?

While visiting a friend who was in the hospital, I noticed several pretty nurses, each of whom was wearing a pin designed to look like an apple. I asked one nurse what the pin signified.
Nothing, she said with a smile. It s just to keep the doctors away.
Argument
If you really want the last word in an argument, try saying, I guess you re right.
Army
The first sergeant was holding a class on combat for his company. He said, Smith, what would you do if you saw seven hundred enemy soldiers coming at you?
Smith said, I would shoot them all with my rifle.
The sergeant asked, On the right you see four hundred enemy soldiers charging at you. What would you do?
Smith said, I would shoot them with my rifle.
The sergeant continued, Okay! On your left, Smith, you notice a thousand enemy soldiers heading straight at you. What would you do?
Smith answered again, I would shoot them all with my rifle.
The sergeant yelled, Just a minute, Smith. Where are you getting all those bullets?
The soldier smiled and said, The same place you re getting all those enemy soldiers.
Arthritis
Doctor: The check you gave me for my bill came back.
Patient: So did my arthritis!
Asylum
Late one night in the insane asylum, one inmate shouted, I m Napoleon!
Another said, How do you know?
The first inmate said, God told me.
Just then a voice from the next room shouted, I did not.
Atheist
I once wanted to become an atheist, but I gave up the idea. They don t have any holidays.

Atheist: Do you honestly believe that Jonah spent three days and nights in the belly of a whale?
Preacher: I don t know, sir, but when I get to heaven I ll ask him.
Atheist: But suppose he isn t in heaven?
Preacher: Then you ask him!

The atheist cannot find God for the same reason that a thief cannot find a policeman.

B
Baby Brother
For weeks a six-year-old lad kept telling his first-grade teacher about the baby brother or sister that was expected at his house. One day the mother allowed the boy to feel the movements of the unborn child. The six-year-old was obviously impressed but made no comment.
After that, he stopped telling his teacher about the impending event. The teacher finally leaned down to the boy and said, Tommy, whatever has become of that baby brother or sister you were expecting at home?
Tommy burst into tears and confessed, I think Mommy ate it!
Baby Food
I finally figured out why babies suck their thumbs. I tried some of the baby food.
Bachelor
Nancy: What s your excuse for not being married?
Rich: I was born that way.
Backseat Driver
Daddy, before you married Mommy, who told you how to drive?
Bad Driver
Did you hear about the cheerful truck driver who pulled up at a roadside caf in the middle of the night for a dinner stop? Halfway through his dinner, three wild-looking motorcyclists roared up with swastikas on their chests and helmets.
For no reason at all, they selected the truck driver as a target. One poured pepper over his head, another stole his apple pie, the third deliberately upset his cup of coffee. The truck driver never said a word-he just rose, paid his check, and exited.
That truck driver sure ain t much of a fighter, sneered one of the invaders.
The girl behind the counter, peering out into the night, added, He doesn t seem to be much of a driver either. He just ran his truck right over three motorcycles.
Bad News
Good news: All of you slaves who are rowing will get an extra ration of rum with the noon meal.
Bad news: After lunch, the captain wants to go waterskiing.
Bad Situations
Talk about bad situations-just think about
A screen door on a submarine.
A stowaway on a kamikaze plane.
A teenager who parks in a dark alley with his girl and his horn gets stuck.
A soup sandwich.
A pilot who ejects from a helicopter.
A Hindu snake charmer with a deaf cobra.
Bald
If a man is bald in front, he s a thinker. If he s bald in the back
