A Joke to Start the Week - "Prison Jokes"
It's been a hot summer week, and it looks like we've got another hot one coming. But it's another Monday and we'll try to cool off with a joke to start the week.
Here's an oldie but goodie from the folks who brought us Old Jews Telling Jokes. Today's joke teller is Writer/Producer Michael Miller.
Here's the setup: This guy goes to prison and he's very scared. The first day he's sitting at lunch and when lunch is over he sees one of the inmates get up on the table and he says "32." And then...
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteal I told this one 70 years ago. still cute
ReplyDeleteThis one should be listed as Old Jews telling Very Old Jokes
ReplyDeleteThis is an old joke but I still like it and it was delivered wonderfully by Mr. Miller/ The version of this joke I am more familiar with is set in The Friars Club where old-time comedians are sitting around "smoozing" ie, Berle,Youngman, Phil Silvers et al and are telling jokes by number and getting roaring laughs. A young comedian gets up and says a number and no one laughs and he is told "the joke was terrific but you have to work on your delivery:!
