We need some new material in our house because Ben’s jokes are getting real old. What better day than today? I just learned from Bill Ward’s article here. that today is National “Tell an Old Joke Day.” I know I’ve mentioned the Knock Knocks Ben shares. They are getting more nonsensical (and hysterical to him) by the day.

Ben: Knock Knock
Me: Who’s there?
Ben: Pickle
Me: Pickle who?
Ben: Pickle nose! (then he rolls on the ground as if it were the most hilarious thing ever uttered.)

Ben: Knock Knock
Me: Who’s there?
Ben: Eye
Me: Eye who?
Ben: Eyeball! (more fits of laughter)

Such is 3 year-old humor.

I remember a few favorite jokes of mine as a young kid dealt with time.

How are a pigs tail and 5 a.m. the same?
They are both twirly.

And the old joke –

What’s the best time to go to the dentist?
2:30
