So who did Bubbles blow?
Bubbles is the duck that got blown by Quack & Quack Quack. The funny thing about that Joke is I told it to the former U.S. Ambassador to Mexico. It seemed like such a good joke to tell until I remembered the punch line, which I usually forget, but this time I remembered it, but I looked over at the Ambassador, and I realized she was a bit on the prim and proper side. Her shirt buttoned to the very top, conservative hair, elbows in, sensible yet stylish shoes.... and her head titled just slightly back...
So for the first time in ages that I can remember the punch line to a joke, I don't want to say it out loud because it's the wrong joke. So I just stopped rite there, but she kept saying "come on were waiting". Now I'm usually good at stalling, but I guess the punch line was using all of the available brain functions, so I totally froze.... which ruined any chance the joke was going to get a laugh. So I said "uh uh can't.... " I looked around at every one else in the room, and they were looking back at me waiting for the punch line who's timing had long since expired and so I said "Oh no your Honor, My name is Bubbles"
I have never experienced such profound silence before or since.
