This is funny stuff! Each one is profoundly ironic and funny, but if I had to choose a favorite, it would be:
*If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can't he fix the hole in a boat?

OK, one more favorite:

Thanks Diva! Posted this many years ago, and copied it from somewhere else. Bacl when my eyesight was better and I didn't notice a thing. :) Fixed it. Possible that when this forum upgraded from vBulletin to Xenforo, it had an effect on the older threads and their appearance.....dunno.

"Why do we say something is out of whack? What is a whack?"
I suspect this one comes from the many devices that often needed a good whack to get them to work properly. Early televisions were this way, sometimes they needed a good whack to work properly. If not, they were considered to be "out of whack". Just a thought!
