Joke of the Day

A little old lady was among a group at an art exhibition in a newly opened gallery.

Suddenly one contemporary painting caught her eye. “What on earth,” she inquired of the artist standing nearby, “is that?”

He smiled condescendingly. “That, my dear lady, is supposed to be a mother and her child.”

“Well, then” snapped the little old lady, “Why isn’t it?”

And…

Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very elderly widow and asked, 'How old was your husband?' '98,' she replied... 'Two years older than me'  

'So you're 96,' the undertaker commented..  

She responded, 'Hardly worth going home, is it?
