wombatie Posted March 5, 2015 Report Posted March 5, 2015 The other night I was invited out for a night with the girls. I told my husband that I would be home by midnight, "I promise!" Well, the hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easy. Around 3 am, a bit loaded, I headed for home. Just as I got in the door, the cuckoo clock in the hall started up and cuckooed 3 times. Quickly realizing my husband would probably wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times. I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick witted solution, in order to escape a possible conflict with him. (Even when totally smashed I know 3 cuckoos plus 9 cuckoos totals 12 cuckoos = midnight) The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, and I told him, "Midnight." He didn't seem p!@@*d at all. Whew! Got away with that one! Then he said, "We need a new cuckoo clock." When I asked him why, he said, "Well last night our clock cuckooed three times, then said "Oh S#!t," cuckooed 4 more times, cleared it's throat, cuckooed another 3 times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the coffee table and farted."

jerry1939 Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 Many years ago a guy told the story, "If I came sneaking in, trying to be quiet, one of the folks would say, 'What time is it?'" "I would quickly reply 'Plenty after eleven.'" jerry Quote
