TODAY’S BLOG
It’s “Funny Friday!” I hope this one will add another smile or laugh to the beginning of your weekend.
FUNNY FRIDAY: With Age Comes Wisdom
A guy is old and loves to fish.
He was sitting in his boat when he heard a voice say, “Pick me up.”
He looked around and couldn’t see anyone.
He thought he was dreaming when he heard the voice say again, “Pick me up.”
He looked in the water and there, floating on the top, was a frog.
The man said, “Are you talking to me?”
The frog said, ‘Yes, I’m talking to you. Pick me up, then kiss me, and I’ll turn into the most beautiful woman you have ever seen. All your friends will be jealous because I will be your bride!”
The man looked at the frog for a short time, reached over, picked it up carefully, and placed it in his front pocket.
The frog said, “What, are you. . .crazy? Didn’t you hear what I said? I said ‘kiss me and I will be your beautiful bride.’”
The old man opened his pocket, looked at the frog and said, “Nah, at my age I’d rather have a talking frog.”
As the title says: “With age comes wisdom.”
