A bunch of half-dollars went into a bar... it was a silver bullion bar.
Not all of them made it in. 10% of them were not "refined enough" and were excluded.

An 85 year old gentleman was visiting his doctor for his annual check-up.
“So how are you keeping these days?” the doctor inquired.
“Doc, I’ve never felt better,” he responded...
“I’ve even married my 18 year old girlfriend recently and she’s now pregnant with my child. So, how about that for feeling great?!
The doctor considered this momentarily and then said...
“Let me tell you a story... a friend of mine was a keen hunter. One day he went out in a bit of a hurry and accidently picked up an umbrella instead of his gun.”
“Really?” asked the guy.
“Yes,” said the doctor....
“Anyway, he was in the woods when suddenly a very large grizzly bear appeared in front of him. He raised his umbrella, pointed it at the bear and squeezed the handle. And do you know what happened?”
Dumbfounded the old guy said...
“No Doc, what?!”
“The bear dropped dead in front of him,” the doctor replied.
“No Doc, that can’t be right.” said the old man...
“That’s impossible! Someone else must have shot the bear.”
The doctor smiled and said...
“EXACTLY!"
... what kind of schools do coins attend?
Grade school. Duh

Why was the coin afraid to go to school?
Because of all the bullion.

So they can learn to reed.

For years we have been coming up to the woods to go hiking. This mailbox is our half-way marker. The old rusty box is nailed to an oak that has to be 150 years old. Last weekend, passing it by I decided to open the box to see if anything was inside. After all, there isn’t even a house nearby to which it could possibly serve anyway. Any home it serviced was long ago torn down I’m sure. I noticed an ancient letter inside as you can see in the picture. I looked at the post mark date and it said July 7, 1903. Due to age and moisture the addressee on the envelope was not readable, so I opened up the envelope hoping to find some local history and a good story I could share with you. Here is what the letter inside said. “We have been trying to reach you about your cars extended warranty.”
Why was the lizard embarrassed to go to the doctor?
He had a reptile dysfunction.

He had a reptile dysfunction.
