It’s Tuesday again and I’ve got nothing.
So, I’m just going to do the best I can.
Today that best is a joke I heard from a nine-year-old.
Adjust your expectations accordingly.
(Drumroll please…)
What has a bottom on the top?
There you go, it’s actually more of a riddle than a joke. Just imagine I’m the Sphinx. (Cue booming voice.)
Ew. Apparently if I’m the Sphinx it means I’m going to devour you if you can’t answer my riddle, and that’s gross. So forget the Sphinx part. It’s just a riddle.
I’ll tell you what the answer is not. It is not me during an especially good tumble snowboarding last week. Even though that did involve falling and having my snowboard leave the ground and whizz above my head like a pretty colored helicopter. While my legs were still attached to it.
It was rather spectacular, if I do say so myself.
But it is not the answer to the riddle.
Have you guessed yet?
What has a bottom on the top?
Your legs!
You’re welcome for that little gem. Yes, it is the best joke I heard all week.
You could take pity on me and send me better jokes. Jokes from someone older than nine.
Oh, this is good! I just ran across this clip and had to share. Here’s a video of our youngest that we took under his door so as not to interrupt the singing. This was at least the hundredth time he’d sung the song, each with just as much feeling.
Hope everyone is having a lovely day.
If not, try belting out Oh Susannah.
