Monday morning writing joke: “second opinion”
Sometimes, it’s harder to catch a break form a doctor than to catch a cold.
I went to see my doctor the other day and he said he had bad news.
I said, “What, doctor? Are you moving away?”
He said, “No. But you only have six months to live.”
I said, “Doctor, I want a second opinion.”
He said, “Okay. Your writing won’t outlive you.”

Monday (morning) writing joke: “Worn out”
Who gives a sock?
I’m a writer and I don’t get no respect. The other day, a critic said of my latest work: “His story is as loud and useless as my worn-out socks.”
I wrote the critic and asked him how can worn out socks be loud?
He wrote me back saying he was taking poetic license.
I wrote back asking why he buys his socks from a poet? I must have said something adverse, because I haven’t heard back from him. But he did send me a bill for four pairs of socks.
