Celebrating Good Times

Dad turns the big 8-0 next month. We originally had planned to completely ignore the day 'cause that's the kind of good-fer-nuthin' kids he raised. Brother Enos especially. But, after some thought, and for fear of pay-back, we planned a celebration. We discussed things with Elizabeth and decided on a party fit for a king...or, at least, for the king of bad jokes.

Sunday, we all met up at the Legion in Oshawa where we had rented the lounge for the afternoon. Shortly after 1, friends and family began arriving. All brought best wishes and many, as we'd requested, delivered their worst jokes. The best jokes of the day came from Cammy, who took three hours to work up his nerve to step in front of that microphone and deliver these beauts...

What do a hockey player and a magician have in common?
~ They both do hat tricks.

What's the messiest sport in Canada?
~ Basketball, because kids dribble all over the floor.

And then Cammy's profound wish to his Grandpa - "Happy birthday you old fart." Hee hee. Couldn't have said it better myself.
