| Dad : |
| People, listen carefully, this high usage of our telephone is unacceptable. |
| You have to limit the use of it. |
| I do not use the home telephone at all, because I use the one at my work-place. |

| Same here. |
| I hardly use our home telephone as I also use my officeʼs telephone. |

DO MEN REMEMBER ANNIVERSARIES?
A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was not in their bed.
She puts on her dressing gown and goes downstairs to look for him.
She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of coffee in front of him. He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall.
She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee.
'What's the matter, dear?' she whispers as she steps into the room, 'Why are you down here at this time of night?'
The husband looks up from his coffee, 'I am just remembering when we first met 20 years ago and started dating. You were only 16. Do you remember back then?' he says solemnly.
The wife is touched to tears thinking that her husband is so caring, so sensitive.
'Yes, I do' she replies.
The husband pauses. The words were not coming easily.
'Do you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of my car?'
'Yes, I remember!' said the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him.
The husband continues. 'Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or I will send you to jail for 20 years?'
'I remember that too' she replies softly.
He wipes another tear from his cheek and says...
'I would have been released today.'

Dear Hokkien-speaking friends,
Dr. Quek made a routine house call to Mr. Lim, one of his elderly patients.
He asks, 'And how are you doing today, Mr. Lim?'
Mr. Lim replies, 'I feel just fine, doc. But you know, it's the
strangest thing.
Every night when I get up to pang jio, the bathroom light goes on for me
automatically when I open the door!'
The doctor is worried that the old man is getting senile, so he
phones the man's son, and the son's wife answers.
The doctor tells her, 'Mrs. Lim, I'm a little concerned about
your father-in-law.
It seems that when he gets up to urinate at night and opens the
bathroom door, the light somehow goes on....'
At which point, Mrs. Lim yells, 'Aiyoh, Ah Seng! Ah Pa pang jio
in the fridge again!'
JUST A JOKE ( 2 )
