    Talking Puns

    In fact, I wasn't sure whether to post this here or in jokes -I love puns, and they're as hard to translate as jokes. Impossible, I'd say!

    I found these fun pun jokes to share with you all:
    • I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. Then it hit me.
    • Did you hear about the guy whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now.
    • I couldn't quite remember how to throw a boomerang, but eventually it came back to me.
    • There was once a cross-eyed teacher who couldn't control his pupils.
    I'll come back with more if you like them! (Add yours, if you have some!)

    Did you hear about the optometrist who fell into a lens grinder and made a spectacle of himself?

    Doctors tell us there are over seven million people who are overweight. These, of course, are only round figures.

    What is the purpose of reindeer? It makes the grass grow, sweetie.

    There were two ships. One had red paint, one had blue paint. They collided. At last report, the survivors were marooned.

    The other day I sent my girlfriend a huge pile of snow. I rang her up and asked, "Did you get my drift?"

    Where do you find giant snails? On the ends of giant's fingers

    Hey guys, your puns are really good?? Where do you get them from? Are you just picking them up from the street, let's say, or there are recopillations running around somewhere...

    I remember this one, which John Donne, 17th century English poet, supposedly said right after he got married:

    John Donne, and Donne [his wife], undone.
