I tend to pride myself on knowing lots of jokes. I mean, if you tell me the first line of a joke, I can usually tell you the punchline. I had a standing challenge in high school to folks to try to stump me, and it occasionally happened, but not often.

That said, I was quite amused to find two really dumb jokes, the kind little kids tell, the kind that I really, really enjoy, that I'd never heard before. Y'all probably have, though.

What did the zero say to the eight?
Nice belt

What's the difference between roast beef and pea soup?
You can roast beef, but you can't pea soup.

Also, I invented a surprisingly tasty drink today. A shot of bourbon, the juice of 1 lemon, a couple dashes of salt, and fill with seltzer.

The salt really makes a difference. I was surprised at how good it ended up. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised -- bars use club soda instead of seltzer, because club soda has salt and seltzer doesn't. But I added more salt than would be in the club soda. I guess, if I used club soda, I'd use one dash of salt instead of two or three.

I like the name salty-lemon-fizzzy (with the extra z) Or you could name it salty-lemon-tea nuts... But that's another joke entirely...
