The
owner of a golf course in Georgia was confused about paying an invoice,
so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help. He
called her into his office and said, "Y'all graduated from the
University of Georgia and I need some help. If I wuz to give yew
$20,000, minus 14%, how much would you take off?" The secretary thought a moment, and then replied, "Everthang but my earrings."

'nother one,,,,,
A social worker from Ohio who was recently transferred to the mountains
of North Georgia, was on the first tour of his new territory when he
came upon the tiniest cabin he had ever seen in his life. Intrigued, he
went up and knocked on the door. 'Anybody home?' he asked. 'Yep,' came a kid's voice through the door. 'Is your father there?' asked the social worker. 'Pa? Nope, he left afore Ma came in,' said the kid. 'Well, is your mother there?' persisted the social worker. 'Ma? Nope, she left just afore I got here,' said the kid. 'But,' protested the social worker, 'are you never together as a family? ''Sure, but not here,' said the kid through the door. 'This is the outhouse!'😮

Ok, try this one…….
Three spring breakers finally sobered up long enough to learn of the ongoing virus problem, and since they were about out of money and condoms in Ft. Lauderdale being in shorter supply than TP, decided it was time to head for home. Fearing they might get sick if they got on a plane, they opted to try hitch hiking home. Made pretty good time the first day……all the way to south Georgia, where they decided to hole up for the night.
Only place they could afford was a run down Motel Patel………whose normal rate was only $25, but old boy at the desk sized them up as not too bright and desperate, so charged them $30 instead. A couple hours went by and guilt set in, so he calls in one of his hispanic housekeepers, handed her five $1 bills, with instructions to refund the money. Due to language barrier, she misunderstood, and only gave them three $1’s back and kept the other two. Hey, thats what she thought she heard.
So to check the math, each guy paid $10, but each got $1 back, so each only paid $9. So 3 x $9 = $27, plus the $2 the maid kept. So that makes $29. Where did the other $1 go????

My wife was standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror. She was not happy with what she saw and said to me, "I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.' I replied, "Your eyesight's damn near perfect." And then the fight started........

My wife and I were sitting at a table at her high school reunion, and she kept staring at a drunken man swigging his drink as he sat alone at a nearby table. I asked her, "Do you know him?" "Yes", she sighed, "He's my old boyfriend. I understand he took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear he hasn't been sober since." "My God!" I said, "Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?" And then the fight started...

I like the part “she seems nice”. I have laughed all morning to myself about that post I can relate to it. Think I will pass Johns jokes on to the wife this evening see how that goes. Lol
