Then, he created man, then he rested...
Then, he created women and no one has rested since!

 Was driving around and around a parking garage in search of an available space.
Nothing.
Then, I noticed a couple walking ahead of me.
"Going out?" I called to them.
"No," said the man. "Just friends."

During the eight years he served as Eisenhower's vice President,
Richard Nixon had many reminders of the esteem
Accorded to people in his position.
Once, the Nixons were staying at a hotel in Chicago when a fire alarm
went off in the middle of the night.
Hundreds of guests, including Dick and Pat Nixon, were herded into the lobby.
Once Nixon realized that it was a false alarm, he and his wife headed
for the elevator.
"Just a minute," said the hotel's security chief.
"Everyone stays in the lobby until we get the all clear."
"I'm the vice president," Nixon said.
"Oh," the security chief said. "Sorry. Go right ahead."
Nixon pressed the elevator button, and the security chief had second thoughts.
"Vice president?" he said. "Of what?"
"Of the United States," Nixon answered.
"Get back out here," the security chief said. "I thought you were a
vice president of the hotel."

Doug went to the eye doctor for an examination because he was having
trouble reading the newspaper.
 "Now that you're over 40," the doctor told him,
"you've developed a condition called 'presbyopia,'
In which the lens of your eye can no longer focus as well as it used to."
Seeing his worried look,
The doctor tried to be upbeat.
"Congratulations!" he said. "You're now officially a Presbyope!"
 Doug leaned over and asked seriously,
"Does this mean I can no longer be a Southern Baptist?"
