THE DIVORCE BEFORE THANKSGIVING
A father in Dallas calls his son in New York just before Thanksgiving and tells him, 'I am sorry to tell you but your mother and I are getting a divorce. I just cannot take any more of her moaning. We can't stand the sight of each other.' I am telling you first, Eddie, because you are the oldest, please tell your sister.
When Eddie calls his sister Julie, she says: 'No way are they getting divorced. Julie phones her father and tells him 'You must not get divorced.
‘Promise you won't do anything until Eddie and I get there tomorrow.’ The father puts down the phone and turns to his wife and says, ‘Good news' … 'Eddie and Julie are coming for Thanksgiving.'

TURKEY HUNTING IS A FAMILY TRADITION
An 80-year-old man went to the doctor, who was amazed at what good shape the guy was in.
The doctor asked, "To what do you attribute your good health?"
The old timer said, "I'm a turkey hunter and that's why I'm in such good shape. I'm up before daylight and out chasing turkeys."
The doctor said, "Well, I'm sure that helps, but there has got to be more to it.
How old was your dad when he died?"
The old timer said, "Who said my dad's dead?"
The doctor said, "You mean you're 80 years old and your dad's still alive? How old is he?"
The old timer said, "He's 100 years old and he hunted turkey with me this morning, and that's why he's still alive...he's a turkey hunter."
The doctor said, "Well, that's great, but I'm sure there's more to it.
How about your dad's dad? How old was he when he died?"
The old timer said, "Who said my grandpa's dead?"
The doctor said, "You mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather's still living!
How old is he?"
The old timer said, "He's 118 years old."
The doctor was getting frustrated at this point and said, "I guess he went turkey hunting with you this morning too?"
The old timer said, "No, Grandpa couldn't go this morning because he got married."
The Doctor said in amazement, "Got married!!
Why would a 118-year-old guy want to get married?"
The old timer said, "Who said he wanted to?"

A man had just got his car stuck in a during a drive in the country and he needed help getting it out. So he walked until he found a farm and asked the farmer for help. The farmer agrees to help the guy out. So he takes a horse out of the stable and leads him to the car. The farmer then ties a harness around the horse and the other end to the car.
The farmer yells, "Pull, Sandy!"
The horse just stands there.
The farmer yells, "Come on now, pull Twister!"
The horse once again just stands there.
Finally the farmer yells, "Ok dang it, PULL RANGER! You're just standing there!"
The horse springs forward and with all the strength he has, he pulls the car out of the ditch and onto the roadside.
The man thanks the farmer many times, but before leaving the farmer why he yelled out names of horses that weren't there.
The farmer just smiles and replies, "Oh, you see Ranger there is completely blind and a lazy horse. He wasn't going to pull if he thought he was the only one trying."
