At the Barber Shop
Hello. Sit down. I got another barber to help but mostly I work alone. Are you new to this small town? It is not New York City or Chicago. But we have some good times. Not as many since Jim got killed. When Jim was alive, this town was so much fun. There was more laughing here than any town in America. You see, Jim was a jokester.
Often, Jim would come here and sit in that chair over there. Jim would say, “Whitney, have you been drinking”?
Whitney is my name. And I would say, “No I have not”.
Then Jim would say, “I have not. But I sure want something to drink. Anything! I just want to get drunk.”
Sometimes Fred would come here for a shave. Fred is not a good looking man. And Jim would say, “Whitey, please don’t shave Fred; leave his beard on. Anything is better than his ugly face.” Fred would try to laugh even though the joke was on him.
That Jim sure was a good guy. It was so much fun having him here. What a jokester!
The Wife and Kids
Years ago Jim sold canned food. Then one day he got fired. He came here and said, “Gentlemen, I have lost my job; I have been fired. I have been selling canned food and now I have been canned”. You understand selling canned food and getting canned? Canned you understand is to be fired. Oh that Jim was funny guy always telling and doing fun jokes.
After losing his job, Jim did little jobs around town usually drinking away his money. Sometimes his wife would go to Jim’s boss and ask for Jim’s money so she could feed the kids. Jim did not like that and decided to play a good joke on his wife. So, Jim told his family to go to the zoo, and that he would be waiting with tickets at the entrance. Well the wife and kids waited and waited. Jim did not go to the zoo; no sir - Jim outsmarted his wife and went to the bar and drank whiskey. Oh that Jim, what a good jokester.
Well the Doctor (we call him Doc) saw the mother and kids crying and bought tickets for them. After that Jim did not like Doc because Doc stopped a good joke. Doc is from out of town but lives here now.
Outsmart -> to get the better of someone
Mentally Challenged (retarded) Harry
But I was going to tell you about Harry. When 10 years old, Harry fell out of a tree and hurt his head. And now his head has never been right. No harm to him, but just a little slow – retarded.
Cuckoo! That is another good joke that Jim had – calling retarded people cuckoo - people like Harry. Jim liked to play jokes on Harry such as to send Harry to get a pizza at a KFC. That Jim had so many good jokes. Anyway, Harry began not to trust Jim. Harry liked only Doc and a girl named Julie. Julie would take care of him.
Julie was educated in Chicago and wants to go back to Chicago but she stays here to take care of her mother. One day Doc saw Julie and it was love at first sight.
Now Jim was a ladies’ man. He had some women here in town. And Jim wanted Julie. But Julie did not like Jim with his jokes. So Jim decided to play a good joke on Julie.
One day Jim sends Julie a letter but he uses Doc’s name. The letter tells Julie to meet him (Doc in his office). The letter said something about marriage. Julie gets dressed up and quickly goes to Doc’s office. Only Doc had gone out of town for a few days. But in the office were Jim and the boys. So when Julie opened the door she saw everyone laughing at her, “no one is going to marry you” - Julie ran away crying.
Well this is a small town and every one learned about the joke including cuckoo Harry.
Duck Shooting
Days later Jim wanted to go duck shooting. There is a lake with ducks not far from here. Jim asked Harry to go. Harry said he would go. Harry had never used a gun before and everyone thought that Jim wanted to play a joke on Harry like push him into the water.
Well Doc comes in here and asks, “Where is Harry?” And I say, “Duck shooting with Jim”. Doc said that is strange because, after the Julie joke, Harry said that he wants no more to do with Jim as long as he lived.
Well then there is news that there was a hunting accident. Harry had never used a gun before. No jury because it was clearly a hunting accident; any fool could see that.
I guess Jim was a sucker for going duck shooting with someone who did not know about guns. It was Jims own fault – giving a gun to a beginner and this one was a cuckoo beginner. I guess Jim got what he deserved. But we will miss him around here. Jim sure was a good jokester.
Ah, finished; what do you think?
