George: Look. You got a letter from your sister, Bessie. Gracie: Oh! Bessie! George: What did she say? Did she say anything? Gracie: Well, she's just wonderful herself. But her son, Willy... George: Willy. Willy? That's the one with the high blood pressure. The one who sleeps on the floor to keep his blood pressure down? Gracie: Yes, that's the one. George: Smart kid. Gracie: Yes. George: Yes. What about Willy? Gracie: Well, he broke his back. George: I'm glad to hear that. Gracie: Huh? George: Broke his back? How did he do that? Gracie: Well, on account that he's left-handed. George: He broke his back because he's left-handed. Gracie: Yes. Well, you see, what happened was he had a doughnut in his right-hand pocket and when he went to take it out with his left hand... George: He broke his back? Gracie: Yah! George: Well you tell Bessie, the next time to tell Willy that if he's got a doughnut in his right-hand pocket to try to take it out with his right-hand. Gracie: Yah. But that's hard to do when you have your pants on backwards. George: He had his pants on backwards? Gracie: Yes. Well, you see, what happened was he had a suit of clothes with two pairs of pants and he put one pair on frontwards and he put one pair on backwards. George: Are you sure that he could GO either way? Gracie: That's when the truck hit him. George: The truck. What truck? Gracie: The truck that didn't have its lights lit. George: Why didn't the truck have it's lights lit? Gracie: Because...he had... George: Hold it. Hold It! HOLD IT! Did the guy in the truck have his pants on backwards or did Willy have his pants on backwards? Gracie: Oh, George, you're trying to confuse me. George: I'M confusing YOU!? Gracie: Willy had his pants on backwards. George: Oh. But the fellow in the truck; why didn't he have his lights lit? Gracie: He didn't have to. It was daytime. George: Uh-huh! Gracie: Are you getting this now? George: Oh, no, oh, no. Well, how's the fella,... but if he didn't have his lights lit didn't he see Willy coming? Gracie: He didn't know it was Willy. He saw two pairs of pants coming toward him and he drove between them. George: Good Bye! |
