The Art of Cry
When Mrs Johnson entered Belli's room, she found that he was binding up his thumb.
“What's the matter with you?” she asked.
“It is because of that hammer.” Belli answered.
“But I didn't hear you cry.” “Oh, I thought you were not in just now.”
We Need Two of Those
“Do you need any typists?” asked a young man seeking a job.
“No,” said the personnel director checking the list. “We have got plenty of typists.”
“How about file clerks?” asked the man.
“Sorry, we have many file clerks, too.”
Disgusted, the applicant started to leave, muttering. “Well, I'll be an S.O.B.…”
The personnel man jumped up and cried, “what! We need two of those.”
It's Not That
“May I borrow your record player tonight?” a man asked his neighbor.
“Sure. Do you want to listen to some music?”
“No,” he answered. “Tonight I want to have some peace and quiet.”
