My mom says one morning
she opened the door to
take out the empty milk
bottles and found me in a
basket on her doorstep.
She said, pinned to my
pajama collar was a note
that said, “Mrs. Raymond—
This is your baby.
Please stop leaving
it on my doorstep.”
.
Bravo!
Thanks, n!
… And unfortunately for me, their ruse worked. Mom wasn’t very smart.
Hah! And — How dare you!
So neat and complete I can find nothing to say except “Fabulous, Geo.”
Thanks, Bruce!
A comment about being the cream of the crop is forming…
Hah! Thanks, Pam
Barton, you’re the toast of Broadway.
Thanks, Bob!
One day, the milkman stepped outside and found a note attached to a garden gnome: “Mr. Milkman, please find enclosed a check in the amount of $2,000. My wife will be dropping off the baby later this afternoon. In six months, I will pay you another $2,000 to keep the baby for an additional six months. Semiannual payments will continue until Little George is 18 years of age. The thing is, we don’t want to raise the baby. There’s something trefological about it. And that worries me. That worries me a lot. — Mr. Raymond”
Haha! Thanks, David
:D :D :D Hilarious!
Thanks, MM!
I heard that deliveries by Amazon stork come with free returns to sender if they are dropped off on a neighbor’s doorstep. Neighbors are Amazon’s carrier pigeons for returns. Amazon milkmen handle returns for neighbors that can barely pick up a milk bottle, much less a basket of joy.
After the stork delivered me I never saw him again, not so much as a phone call, until he “reappeared” just in time for my college graduation photo op. Thanks, E Sum!
Oh I know the feeling of not being wanted….as a kid I used to have a packed lunch for my dinner at school…. I know I wasn’t wanted, each day my parents wrapped my sandwiches in a roadmap!
Hilarious, Tyeth. Thanks!
Whoever your parents were, they passed on some hysterical genes!
My grandmother was hilarious. She even did impressions of other family members. Any comedy gene most certainly came from her. And thanks, Geoff.
♬ Gene, gene, you’re young and alive… ♬
Haha. Great twist!
Thanks, Ilsa!
This explains everything. :)
Indubitably. Thanks, Nancy!
LOL
