A long tale about Frank...

Got a joke too good to keep to yourself? This is where to put it. While all the other Campfires are expected to be reasonably 'serious' in nature, this is where we let our hair down.

A long tale about Frank...

#1 Post by robmoore » Thu Feb 16, 2012 6:30 pm

A man walks into the street and manages to get a taxi just going by. He gets into the taxi and the cabbie says, "Perfect timing. You're just like Frank."

"Who?"

"Frank Feldman. There's a guy who did everything right. Like my coming along when you needed a cab. It would have happened like that to Frank every single time."

"There are always a few clouds over everybody."

"Not Frank. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand-Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano."

"Sounds like he was something really special."

"There's more. He had a memory like a computer. He could remember everybody's birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out"

"Wow, some man about town then."

"He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams, not like me. I always seem to get stuck in them."

"Mmm, there's not many like him around."

"And he knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good and never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too."

"An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?"

"Well, I never actually met Frank."

"Then how do you know so much about him?"

"I married his flaming widow!"

Politics is a game played by dishonest people to gain an unfair advantage!

Never under estimate the strength of a cornered coward.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

Lately, if life were treating me any better, I'd be suspicious of it's motives!
