Christmas jokes
An honest politician, a hard-working civil servant and Santa Claus find a 100 dollar bill. Who gets to keep it? Santa does, the other two are creatures of myth and legend. What kind of a bike does Santa ride in his spare time? A Holly Davidson. Two women are chatting, “I took my husband to the Christmas market yesterday,” says one of them. “And, did someone want to buy him?” asks the other. It is really embarrassing how Santa ends up having the same wrapping paper like your mum and dad. CNN reported news of an unidentified flying object on Christmas Eve….. It was a U-F-ho-ho-ho.
