Ticklers.

  1. If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented?

  2. If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes?

  3. Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?

  4. If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?

  5. If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?

  6. Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?

  7. When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say?

  8. Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist but a person who drives a racing car not
      called a racist?             

  9. Why are a wise man and a wise guy opposites?

10. Why do overlook and oversee mean opposite things?

11.  Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety one?

12. "I am" is reportedly the shortest sentence in English language. Could it be that "I do" is the
      longest sentence?

13. If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn't it follow that electricians can be
      delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed, dog trainers debarked and
      dry cleaners depressed?

14. What hair colour do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men?

15. Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we supposed to do, write
      to them? Why don't they just put their pictures on the postage stamps so that the postmen can
      look for them while they deliver the mail?

16. You never learn to swear until you learn to drive.

17. No one ever says, "It's only a game", when their team is winning.

18. Isn't making a smoking section in a restaurant like making a peeing section in a swimming pool?

19. If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhoea, does that mean that one enjoys it?


Tailpiece.

The day had dawned with the rain of the night continuing with all its might but by afternoon, there was a lull. The plumber-cum-electrician, Babeesh was at our door by 1500 hrs and we'd gone in my Chevy from the western entrance(Padinjaare nada) of the temple, all the way to an electrical shop at Kunnamkulam on the Wadakkancherry road, which had the POS machine and used credit cards for transactions! With the spares in place, he has promised to come for fitment/replacement tomorrow despite it being a holiday!!
