Today's Jokes by Wendel Potter

____________


Happy Halloween!  Look for some amazing new costumes tonight.......


The David Letterman costume....comes complete with a list of the Top Ten places to trick or treat.


The Jay Leno costume....send your kid out in this one and he can trick or treat at a time of his choice while all the other kids get bumped back to a later hour or just have to leave the neighborhood altogether.


The Herman Cain costume...... you ring a doorbell and the people inside holler, "Pizza's here!"


The Mitt Romney costume.....very economical....just a mask and flip flops.


The Michele Bachmann costume....very frightening....the mask is a cut out of that Newsweek magazine cover.


The President Obama costume...comes with a teleprompter that reads, "Trick...uhhhhhhh.....or.....uhhhhhhhh.....treat!"     


By the way, the catch to wearing the President Obama costume is that you can only trick-or-treat with a group of kids wearing Secret Service costumes.


The Bernie and Ruth Madoff costumes.....you trick-or-treat, take the neighborhood for all it's worth, then go home and share a couple of poisoned apples (included with costumes).


The Mitch McConnell costume....when your child wears this, his goal is not to get candy, but to talk smack about the black kid on the block in hopes of ruining his chances of trick-or-treating in 2012.


Now then......in the news:


The 193 acres of Iowa cornfields popularized by the movie Field of Dreams has been sold for an undisclosed price.  It just goes to show you, "Build it and it will sell."


Two women have accused Herman Cain of making suggestive sexual remarks while he was in charge of Godfather's Pizza.  He allegedly said he wanted them to be his cheesy toppings and he'd be the sausage.


Speaking of toppings, Herman Cain is on top of the new Iowa poll.  That will change.  It will take about a week for the Iowa newspapers to catch up to his bad press.


The United Nations says that the world's population will top 7 billion today.  That's providing that Texas has no executions planned.


Halloween came early in Washington, DC.  Children trick-or-treated on Saturday at the White House, where President Obama handed out goodies to the kids.  Only those trick-or-treaters who had more than 250,000 pieces of candy in their bags were taxed on the treats the president gave them.




A Florida woman has been arrested after police discovered a crack pipe hidden in her bible.  She claimed it was an artifact that came with the holy book and originally belonged to the guy who wrote The Book of Revelation.




Peanut butter prices have risen by 40%.....obviously, so has the price of rat hair.


Congratulations to Penn State coach Joe Paterno for win number 409 on Saturday.  He truly lives up to the title Head Coach because if you watch a Penn State game, all you can see is his head.




........thanks for reading!
