There’s a catch to catching failing objects, in that it’s catching and you start failing yourself. So, turn a new leaf, and leave failing leaves fail.

Would a skeleton that stays in its grave on Halloween be a case of lazy bones?

No, it just doesn't have the guts to come out with all its other ghoul friends.

When we're ' Under the boardwalk ' do we get " Sand in our shoes " when we ' Do the twist ' ?

Only the floating stuff :D Fish sticks are waaaay too addictive.

If mushrooms are fed manure and kept in the dark, how do Brussel sprouts grow?

Poorly, the Brussel Sprouts master farmer is truly doing a job that is a labour of love, planting in the early summer, watering consistently, eliminating pests and waiting until the first frost before harvesting. Miss a step or time things badly and nothing will materialize. Maybe not the silliest answer, but planting Brussel Sprouts is a silly endeavour, I still remember my mother telling me to eat my sprouts and I fed them to my dog who loved them and I lived with the aftereffects of the gas he had when I went to bed that night.

Speaking of Labours of Love, if we do something that is a labour of love are we really working?

doing something for your cat/dog/pet is a labour of love, for anyone else it's just doing them a favour
(which many expect will be reciprocated at some future time) whether they admit it or not!

If a man is always wrong and a woman is always right,
what is it when a man says that the woman is right?

Well, she is righteous!

What is the difference in doubling down or double or nothing?

"Doubling down" is when you bend down at the waist and touch the floor. "Double or nothing" means you either get married or have no partner.

If a store’s employees take the day off on Halloween, will the store have to operate on a skeleton staff?

Only if they are very humerus...and there's no skullduggery going on....

If a librarian gets kicked off of a plane, does that mean it was overbooked?

Yes, and it would be his fault for bringing along too many of his books on board, and making the plane overbooked.

Would a skeleton attack you because it has a bone to pick with you?

If the skeleton does attack, would it be because it's a numbskull?

Yes, you can expect empty-headed behavior from a brainless bonehead.

If it rains on Halloween, will the skeletons out and about get drenched to the bone?

Yes, and it will be a bone chilling experience for them all!

If vampires can only come out at night, what do they do in the land of the midnight sun?

First they put on dark sunglasses, then broad sombreros, then sunscreens, then fully covering cloaks with hoods, then grow thick beards, then they hold black umbrellas, and then they emigrate back to Transylvania with Dracula.

Could you ward off vampires by carrying a badge saying you have hepatitis?

No, because of their constant urge for blood, they'll take the chance of getting a lttle.

What happens if you wish on the star of a show?

If you place your wish on a make-believe performer, it’s wishful thinking to expect real results, its fulfillment will be just appearances, and any positive response from others will be just acting.

Why do doctors call what they do on us practice?

because they're practitioners who hope that when they're fed up with practising, they'll be promoted to consultants who don't need to practice at all

are they called knapsacks because backpackers use them as pillows?

No, but the bed roll is named because you lie down on it and roll around to rock yourself to sleep.

Do you coat your sore throat with a jacket or sweat it out with a sweater?
