Two multimillionaire friends met up for lunch and started chatting.
“So how’s your home life?” asks the first multimillionaire.
“Couldn’t be better,” replies the second multimillionaire. “I bought an elephant!”
“An elephant? Are you crazy?”
“It’s the best purchase I ever made! He grazes the lawn and makes it nice and even. The kids love to ride him and slide down his trunk, so now they are playing outside and being kids instead of just watching TV all day. My wife loves him too. He’s very strong and helps her move things when I’m not around. Honestly, I can’t think of a better pet.”
The first multimillionaire thinks for a moment. “That’s actually kind of amazing. How much did you pay for him?”
“Five hundred thousand dollars. What a bargain, huh?”
“Can I buy him for one million dollars?”
“What?! I can’t sell him. He’s part of my family now!”
“Okay. Two million?”
“You can’t put a price on something so useful!”
“Three million?”
“Fine. I’ll sell him for three million dollars, but only because you’re my friend.”
A few months later, the multimillionaires meet again. The first multimillionaire is raging.
“The elephant may have been useful to you, but he’s a burden to me. He may have grazed your lawn, but he ate all my trees and left dung all over my lawn. The kids are terrified of that huge, noisy, aggressive thing. My wife and I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in months because the elephant keeps us awake. It’s the worst purchase I ever made!”

“I don’t know what to say,” says the second multimillionaire. “But with that attitude, you’ll never be able to sell him!”

On a cold winter morning,
A blonde and her husband were having breakfast when the radio announcer said, “We’re expecting 8 to 10 inches of snow today. Please move your car to the even-numbered side of the street so the snowplow can get through.”
Being the helpful wife she is, she bundled up and moved her car.
Next week, same scenario – radio says: “10 to 12 inches of snow today. Please move your car to the odd-numbered side.” Out she goes again, moving that car like a champ.
Week three: They’re sipping coffee when the radio announcer begins, “We’re expecting 12 to 14 inches of snow, and you must park…” And POOF – the power goes out!
The blonde looks panicked and says, “Oh no! I don’t know which side to move the car to now!”
With the calm patience only a man married to a blonde could master, her husband lovingly says, “Sweetheart… why don’t you just leave the car in the garage this time?”
================================================
One afternoon, this blonde drives down a highway to visit a nearby lake and relax.
On his way to the lake, a guy dressed from head to toe in red standing on the side of the highway gestures for him to stop.
Blonde rolls down the window and says, “How can I help you?”
“I am the red jerk of the highway. You got something to eat?”
With a smile in his face, blonde hands a sandwich to the guy in red and drives away. Not even five minutes later, he comes across another guy. This guy is dressed fully in yellow, standing on the side and waving for him to stop.
A bit irritated, blonde stops, cranks down the window, and says, “What can I do for you?”
“I am the yellow jerk of the highway. You got something to drink?”
Hardly managing to smile this time, he hands the guy a can of cola and stomps on the pedal and takes off again. In order to make it to the lakeside before sunset, he decides to go faster and not to stop no matter what.
To his frustration, he sees another guy on the side of the road, this one dressed in blue and signaling for him to stop. Reluctantly, blonde decides to stop one last time, rolls down his window, and yells, “Let me guess. You`re the blue jerk of the highway. Just what the hell do you want?”
“Driver`s license and registration, please.”
