Bad jokes

One of my nephews was at camp a few weeks ago, and his mom contacted some people and asked us to email him while he was there. The camp prints out emails and gives them to the campers at mail call. Since I didn't really have all that much to chat about, at least that he would have cared about, I sent him riddles and one liners all week. Yes, I had a whole week's worth. Plus some.

Here's a sample.

On Tuesday:

• How do you kill a circus?
• Go for the juggler! [that's one of my favorites]

• What does the Gingerbread Boy have on his bed?
• Cookie sheets.

• What do you get when you cross a skunk with a teddy bear?
• Winnie the PEEYEW!

On Wednesday:

• Did you hear about the red ship that collided with the blue ship?
• The sailors were marooned!

• Why did Bill take a fig to the movies?
• Because he couldn't find a date!

• What would happen if Satan lost his hair?
• There would be hell toupee!

On Thursday:

• What do you get if you cross a turtle with a porcupine?
• A slowpoke!

• What do you get if you cross an electric eel with a sponge?
• A shock absorber!

• You hang around while I go on ahead.

On Friday:

• Why do blonde nurses carry a red Magic Marker?
• In case they have to draw blood!

• What do you get when you cross a kangaroo and a snake?

You know, I really ought to know more ten-year-olds.
