A man with a glass eye would take out his eye and place it
in a glass of water on his desk every night before he went to bed. One night he
woke up wanting a drink of water. Forgetting about his glass eye, he drank the
glass of water and of course his eye as well. The next morning he went to see
his doctor and told him what had happened. The doctor gave him some medicine
and after a little while told him to bend over and he would have a look. After
a while the man said to the doctor, "Can you see it, Doc?" "No, my son, I can't
see it." "That's funny, I can see you looking at me."

Uncle Bill was walking up Water Street in St. John's when he
met this man, "Ain't you Judge Higgins?" "Yes, I'm Judge Higgins. Why do you
ask?" "Well," said Uncle Bill, "My wife is your washer woman." "Is that right?
I didn't know that." "There's something else you didn't know Judge." "What else
is it that I don't know?" "You don't know that I'm wearing one of your white
shirts."

There's a little settlement just outside of Corner Brook and
there are more kids there than in any other settlement in the country. As a
result someone was sent there to check up on it. A woman was asked why it was
that there were so many children there. "Well now sir, tis this way, the train
passes through home at five o'clock in the morning and wakes everyone. It's too
early to get up and we couldn't get back to sleep anymore."

The old lady was sitting alone with her old kerosene lamp
when suddenly a genie appeared and offered her three wishes. The old woman
said, "I'd like to be rich." Suddenly there was stacks of money everywhere. "My
second wish is that I'd like to be beautiful princess." Sure enough there she
was standing on the floor, glamorous and in a beautiful evening gown. "Finally
I'd like my cat to turn into a handsome prince." Suddenly her cat disappeared
and a gorgeous prince was standing beside her. She sprang at him and embraced
him. "Now," he said, "I bet you're sorry you took me to the vet for that little
operation."

A Catholic couple had a little boy who was three years old.
They moved next door to a Protestant couple who had a little girl who was also
three years old. They all became good friends. One day the little boy asked his
mother what the difference was between a Catholic and a Protestant. His mother
told him that he was too young to understand and that she would explain to him
later. One day the two kids went swimming and being only tots, they both
stripped off all their clothes and enjoyed the splash in the water. When the
little boy came back home, his mother asked him if he had lots of fun with the
little Protestant girl. "I sure did and Mom, I never knew there was so much
difference between a Protestant and Catholic."

Two mainlanders and a Newfie met in a club. They shared
drinks with each other and among other things got to talking about their
younger days and how far back they could remember. The first mainlander could
remember his first birthday, "Mom took me to a party and my Dad brought me
home." The second mainlander could remember when he was born. "His mom took him
to a party; and his Dad brought him home." The Newfie said, "I can remember
before I was born. My Dad took me to a party and my mother brought me home!"
