JOKE: The Eternal Optimist....

Three friends had a close friend named Joe who was, by his good nature, an eternal optimist. At the mere mention of an unfortunate situation, Joe would always shrug, and say in a consoling manner, ''Well, it could have been worse.'' Eventually, Joe's friends grew resentful of this particular trait, so they a devised a story so horrible that even Joe would be unable to look upon it with hope. So, the next day, in accordance with the plan, only two of the usual trio showed up for a golf match planned with Joe. Joe asked, ''Where's Gary?'' One of his friends solemnly looked up to say, ''Didn't you hear? Yesterday, Gary found his wife in bed with another man, shot them both, and then turned the gun on himself.'' Joe was briefly struck silent, then said,''Well, it could have been worse.'' Both of his friends, awestruck, yelled, ''How in hell could it be worse? Your best friend just murdered two people and killed himself!'' Joe simply said, ''Well, if it happened two days ago, I'd be dead now!''

Not at all. :wink:

A woman was having a passionate affair with an inspector from a pest-control company. One afternoon, the couple was preparing for a spirited experience in the bedroom, when the woman's husband arrived home unexpectedly.

"Quick," the woman said to her lover, "Get inside the closet!" He raced through the closet door, stark naked, before the wife locked him inside, and proceeded to quickly erase any evidence of mischief. The husband, upon entering the room, became suspicious of his wife's peculiar actions, and, after a brief search of the bedroom, discovered the man in the closet.

"Who are you?", he asked him.

"I'm an exterminator from pest-control," the man said.

"What are you doing in there?", the husband asked.

"I'm investigating a complaint about an infestation of moths," the man replied.

"And where are your clothes?", asked the husband.

The man glanced down at himself and said, "Those little bastards."
