Little Johnny's neighbors had a baby. Unfortunately, the baby was born
without ears.

When the mother and new baby came home from the hospital, Little Johnny
and his family were invited over to see the baby.

Before they went over to the neighbors, Little Johnny's dad had a talk
with him and explained that the baby had no ears. His dad also told him
that if he so much as mentioned anything about the baby's missing ears
or even said the word "ears" he would get the spanking of his life when
they got back home. Little Johnny told his dad he understood
completely.

When Johnny looked in the crib he said, "What a beautiful baby."

The mother said, "Why, thank you, Little Johnny."

Johnny said, "He has beautiful little feet and beautiful little hands,
a cute little nose and really beautiful eyes. Can he see?"

"Yes", the mother replied. "We are so thankful; the Doctor said he
will have 20/20 vision."

"That's great," said Little Johnny, 'cuz he'd be shit-outta-luck if he
needed glasses".

A Texas Blonde:

Amy, a blonde Texas city girl, marries a Texas rancher. One morning, on his way out to check on the cows, the rancher says to Amy, "The insemination man is coming over to impregnate one of our cows today. I drove a nail into the two-by-four just above the cow's stall in the barn.

You show him where the cow is when he gets here, okay?"

So the rancher leaves for the fields. After a while, the artificial insemination man arrives and knocks on the front door. Amy takes him down to the barn. They walk along the row of cows and when she sees the nail, she tells him, "This is the one.. right here."

Terribly impressed by what he seemed to think just might be another ditzy blonde, the man asks, "Tell me little lady, how did you know this is the cow to be bred?"

"That's simple. By the nail over its stall," Amy explains very confidently.

Then the man asks, "What's the nail for?"

She turns to walk away, and with complete confidence, says: "I guess it's to hang your pants on....."
