Your husband will die a violent and horrible death this year.”
Visibly shaken, the woman stared at the fortune teller’s lined face, then at the single flickering  candle, then down at her  hands.   She took a few deep breaths to compose herself.  She simply had to know.  She met the fortune tellers gaze, steadied her voice and asked, “Will I get away with it?

Pat went to town to see a movie.  The ticket agent asked, “Sir, What’s that on your shoulder?”
Pat answered, “That’s my pet rooster, Irish. Wherever I go, Irish goes.”

Old Pat went around the corner and stuffed the bird down his overalls.  Then he returned, bought a ticket and entered the theater.  He sat down next to two old widows named Katie and Maggie.
The movie started and the rooster began to squirm.  Pat unbuttoned his fly so Irish could stick his head out and watch the movie.
Maggie whispered to Katie, “I think the guy next to me is a pervert. He undid his pants and has his thing out!”  “Well, don’t worry about it,” said Maggie, “at our age, we seen it all.” 
“I thought so to,” said Maggie, “but this one is eating my popcorn.”
