HAPPINESS

To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.

PUN: use words humorously to create several possible meanings

One apple a day keeps the doctor away.

I has 2 jokes, one about happiness:

A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary. Their domestic tranquility had long been the talk of the town. A local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage.

"Well, it dates back to our honeymoon," explained the lady. "We visited the Grand Canyon and took a trip down to the bottom of the canyon by pack mule. We hadn't gone too far when my husband's mule stumbled. My husband quietly said 'That's once.' We proceeded a little farther when the mule stumbled again. Once more my husband quietly said, 'That's twice.' We hadn't gone a half-mile when the mule stumbled a third time. My husband took a pistol from his pocket and shot him.I started to protest over his treatment of the mule when he looked at me and quietly said 'That's once.'"

The other about health:

He liked to study infectious diseases. It was in his blood.


I agree with Lourdes about the definition of pun. I had a few ones.
1. A bicycle can't stand on its own because it is two-tired.
2. The roundest knight at king Arthur's round table was Sir Cumference
3. Santa's helpers are subordinate clauses.
4. It's better to love a short girl than not a tall.
