Both of their cars are demolished but amazingly neither of them was hurt. After they crawled out of their cars the woman said, “Wow, just look at our cars! There’s nothing left, but fortunately we are not hurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace for the rest of our days.” The man replied, “I agree with you completely! This must be a sign from God!” The woman continued, “And look at this, here’s another miracle. My car is completely demolished but my bottle of 75 year old scotch didn’t break. Surely God meant for us to drink this vintage delicacy and celebrate our good fortune.” Then she handed the bottle to the man. The man nods his head in agreement, opened it, drank half the bottle and then handed it back to the woman. The woman took the bottle, immediately put the cap on, and handed it back to the man. The man asks, “Aren’t you having any?” She replies, “No way the police will be here in a minute and I don’t want to be done for drink driving!!” H H H H H H H H H A man leaves his cat with his younger brother while he goes on holiday for a week. When he comes back the man calls his brother to see when he can pick his cat up. The brother hesitates, then says, “I’m so sorry, but while you were away the cat died.” The man is very upset and yells, “You know, you could have broken the news to me better than that. When I called today, you could have said he is up on the roof and won’t come down. Then, when I called the next day, you could have said that he had fallen off and the vet was working on patching him up. Then, when I called the third day, you could have said he passed away.” The brother thinks about it and immediately apologises. “So, how’s Mum?” asks the other brother, at last mollified. “She’s up on the roof and won’t come down . . . “
