POKER
POKER
Manny Bauer was a very hard-working man. He spent most of his life
eating, sleeping and working. And now he was retired. After a few days
of leisure, he became very restless. He was now living in a retirement
home.
He heard that they had a game-room, and decided to see if something
would interest him. So he looked through the schedule to see what was
offered for the day. As he was glancing through the schedule, he discovered
something which he thought would interest him, which was a misprint, which
appeared as POKE HER, decided that sounded like fun. So he decided to play
that game, and proceeded to poke the unsuspecting woman, who screamed out
loud. He laughed so hard, and decided that this was a perfect game for him --
and went around looking for women to poke.
Meanwhile, there was a POKER game going on. One of the men who was
playing cards came over to Manny and said, "What are you doing?"
Manny said, "I'm playing POKE HER."
The card player said, "That's ridiculous."
And Manny replied, "Oh, it's loads of fun. You should try it sometime.
Now you'll have to excuse me, I still have some women to poke."
