Thursday Special ~ Flower Power
Two little old ladies were sitting on a park bench outside the local town hall where a flower show was in progress.
The thin one leaned over and said, ‘Life is just so boring, we never have any fun any more, for $10 I’d take my clothes off and streak through this stupid flower show!
You’re on!’ said the other old lady, holding up a $10 bill.
The first little old lady slowly fumbled her way out of her clothes, completely naked she streaked (as fast as a little old lady can) through the front door of where they were holding the flower show. Waiting outside, her friend soon heard a huge commotion coming from inside the hall followed by loud applause and shrill whistling.
The smiling and naked little Old lady came through the exit door surrounded by a cheering crowd. Her friend waiting outside asked what had happened?
As the one lady was re dressing she excitedly said “I won 1st prize for the Best Dried Arrangement.”
I laughed for an hour the day this one arrived in the inbox!

Hello! Petal

Only joking!

@Kate - I dare not think about that one. Are pins not banned nowadays?
@ChrisB -
@Magpie - If we did that there would be no problem with a place to pin the rosette!
@Nick - I think she should have won all the prizes!
@Judy - We might have been joint winners!

Okay, Magpie, I will change the gender.
A chap was checking out at the supermarket and the cashier noticed his zipper was open and said to him,”Sir,your barracks door is open.” He had no idea what she meant until another chap said,”Your zipper is down.” THEN he understood..
He went back into the store and said to the cashier,”Miss, when you looked in my barracks door, did you see a soldier standing at attention?”
“No” she replied, “All I saw was a disabled vet sitting on two old dufflebags.”

That was a good one. But on a clarificatory note, her spirit was anything but dry!
