Joke from the Hammonds

When Jim and Jan Hammond asked what they could do for us...... we said keep us laughing!!
Today we received a card, letter and funny story from Jan.

The other night I was invited out for a night with the 'Girls'..
I told Jim that I would be home by midnight, "I promise".  (he had heard that before!!)
Well, the hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easily.... again! So around 3 a.m.,
a bit tipsy, I headed for home.

Just as I got in the door, the cuckoo clock in the hallway started up
and cockooed 3 times!! Quickly, realizing Jim would probably wake up
I cockooed another 9 times. I was really proud of myself for coming up
with such a quick-witted solution.

I thought it through on my own.... 3 cuckoos plus 9 cuckoos equals 12 cuckoos.... perfect

The next morning Jim asked what time I got in, I simply replied in the sweetest voice.... " Midnight, I was home by midnight".

He hugged me and said, "We  need to go shopping at Martin's today for a new cuckoo clock?
In my same, sweet voice, I replied... "Really, why?"

He said, "Well, last night our clock cuckooed three times, then said "Oh Shit", cuckooed 4 more times, cleared it's throat, cuckooed another three times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the coffee table and farted.  All I could say was, "Whoops"

Love, Jan

Thanks Jim and Jan for a really good laugh.... I just had to share it!!!
