Daily Laughs



1. Village Blacksmith   (From the classic files!)
The village blacksmith was breaking in a new apprentice.  
He told him:
"I'll take the hot horseshoe out of the fire. When I nod my head, begin to hammer on it."
 And, that is how the apprentice became the new village blacksmith.

3. Good News Bad News.
The drill sergeant making his morning announcements to a group of newcomers in a training camp, stated:
"Today, gentlemen, I have some good news and some bad news. First, the good.
Private Brabant will be setting the pace on our morning run.'
With this the platoon was overjoyed, as Private Brabant was overweight and terribly slow.
But, then the drill sergeant finished his statement:
"Now for the bad news. Private Brabant will be driving a truck."
