There are three men sitting in the waiting room of a hospital. A nurse walks over to the first guy and says, "Congratulations. You're the father of twins." "What a coincidence!" he says. "I work for Twin City Federal Bank." A while later, the nurse comes out to congratulate the second man. "You are the proud father of triplets," she tells him. "That's funny," says the new dad. "I work for AAA." The third expectant father jumps up, a look of terror on his face, and runs out of the room. "Sir, where are you going?" the nurse calls out. He yells over his shoulder, "I work for Seven Up!"

For a week in the centre of a shopping mall, a team of dedicated sand architects displayed their skills at making sand castles. The designs were quite impressive and members of the team were happy to answer questions from curious shoppers. "Is it difficult as it looks?" one woman asked. "Not at all" came the reply. "We just take a big lump of sand and scrape away all the bits that don't look like a castle."

While waiting tables at an exclusive country club a waiter saw an elegantly dressed woman spilled soup all over her white linen skirt. She began furiously dabbing at it with a napkin. Having plenty of experience with getting out food stains, the waiter asked, "May I bring you some club soda?" "Young lady!" the woman barked. "I'll be the judge of when I've had enough to drink. Bring me another martini!"
