Plays On Words
1. A bicycle can't stand alone; it is two tired.
2. A will is a dead giveaway.
3. Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.
4. A backward poet writes inverse.
5. In a democracy it's your vote that counts; in feudalism, it's your Count who votes.
6. Show me a piano falling down a mine shaft and I'll show you A-flat miner.
7. The guy who fell onto an upholstery machine was fully recovered.
8. You are stuck with your debt if you can't budge it.
9. Local Area Network in Australia: The LAN down under.
10. A calendar's days are numbered.
11. A boiled egg is hard to beat.
12. He had a photographic memory which was never developed.

Not related to the play on words so much....but I heard a guy the other day say...."they are as lost a goose in a hail storm."
Thought it was funny.
I like the piano down the mine shaft one...hilarious...A flat miner! _________________ Ben

How about the butcher who backed into the meat grinder and got a little behind in his work. _________________ Ron Phillips

I liked the weather guy tonight who said we were in for 'wet precipitation' - is this opposed to 'dry precipitation'?  _________________ Elaine
