'Thank God'
A man once lost his donkey. He didn't go and look for it; however, he stayed at home all day, just murmuring to himself," Thank God, thank God...."
On hearing this, his wife said angrily. You are very foolish. You have lost our donkey. Instead of blaming yourself, you are murmuring constantly, " Thank God, thank God...."
The man said, " You should thank God, too. If I was on the donkey's back on that day, I would be lost as well as the donkey, and you would be a widow. So we both should really say' Thank God, thank God...'

An Unexpected Answer
A man went to a movie theater and was surprised to find a woman with a big dog sitting in front of him. Even more astonishing was the fact that the dog always laughed in the right places throughout the comedy. "Excuse me," the man said to the woman, "but I think it is fantastic that your dog enjoys the film so much."
" I am surprised myself," she replied." He hated the book."
Both Mistaken
A man in a train could not find his silk handkerchief and he accused a woman beside him of stealing it. But just before he was going to get off, he found it under his seat. He said to the woman, " Well, Madam. Don't take my little mistake to heart!"
" I took you for a gentleman, and you regarded me as a thief. We were both mistaken," said the woman calmly.
Bad and Worse
A doctor called his patient with the frightening results of his test. " I've got bad news and worse news for you," the doctor said." The bad news is that you only have 24 hours to live."
"Oh, no! that's terrible news," the patient moaned.
"How can it get worse than that, Doctor?"
" I've been trying to reach you since yesterday," the doctor replied.
