A husband and wife are getting ready for bed. The wife is standing in front of a full length mirror taking a hard look at herself.

"You know dear" she says, "I look in the mirror and I see an old woman. My face is all wrinkled, my boobs are barely above my waist, my bum is hanging out a mile. I've got fat legs and my arms are all flabby."

She turns to her husband and says..... "Tell me something positive to make me feel better about myself."

He thinks about it for a bit and then says, "Well......there's nothing wrong with your eyesight!"

An old Egyptian man lived alone in Idaho. He wanted to spade his potato garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, Abdul, who used to help him, was being held by the FBI for aiding and abetting terrorists. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.

Dear Abdul,

I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my
potato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a
garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you
would dig the plot for me.

Your Dad,

Mohammad

A few days later he received a letter from his son.

Dear Dad,

For heaven's sake, don't dig up that garden, that's where
I buried the biological weapons.

Love,

Abdul

At 4 a.m. the next morning, F.B.I. agents and local police showed up and dug up the entire area without finding any weapons. They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son.

Dear Dad,

Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. That's the best I could do under the circumstances.

Love,

Abdul
