Yeah, it was excellent about forty years ago, when I first heard it, too.

No such thing as a new joke.
Just an old one recycled
Jokes have got to be the greenest most recycled things in human history.

I had never heard that one before, but it had a distinctly old feel to
it when I read it.

Where is it written that a joke is only funny it it has never been heard
before? What degree of superiority is awarded someone who's heard it? Gimme
a break.

There's something in the telling of a joke or story in the delivery. Some
people could recite the zip code directory and make people laugh.
Sometimes, it's just the surprise element.

I tell this one every Christmas and love to tell it and laugh when I do. I
even stop strangers with red trucks in the parking lot at WalMart and tell
them. They laugh. Laughing is good for your blood pressure and your
attitude. If you haven't smiled lately, take this:

Why did the Three Wise Men drive red trucks?
