My aunt forwarded this joke to me, a little cheesy but good for a chuckle of the day: The Smiths were unable to conceive children and decided to use a surrogate > father to start their family. On the day the proxy father was to arrive, > Mr. > Smith kissed his wife good-bye and said, "Well, I'm off now the man should > be here soon." > > Half an hour later, just by chance, a door-to-door baby photographer > happened to ring the doorbell, hoping to make a sale. > > Good morning, Ma'am", he said, "I've come to...' "Oh, no need to explain," > Mrs. Smith cut in, embarrassed, "I've been expecting you." > > "Have you really?" said the photographer. "Well, that's good. Did you know > babies are my specialty?" > > "Well that's what my husband and I had hoped. Please come in and have a > seat" > > After a moment she asked, blushing, "Well, where do we start?" > > > > "Leave everything to me. I usually try two in the bathtub, one on the > couch, > and perhaps a couple on the bed. And sometimes the living room floor is > fun. > You can really spread out there." > > "Bathtub, living room floor? No wonder it didn't work out for Harry and > me!" > > > > "Well, Ma'am, none of us can guarantee a good one every time. But if we > try > several different positions and I shoot from six or seven angles, I'm sure > you'll be pleased with the results." > > "My, that's a lot!" gasped Mrs. Smith. > > > > "Ma'am, in my line of work a man has to take his time. I'd love to be in > and > out in five minutes, but I'm sure you'd be disappointed with that." > > "Don't I know it," said Mrs. Smith quietly. > > > > The photographer opened his briefcase and pulled out a portfolio of his > baby > pictures. > > "This was done on the top of a bus," he said. "Oh my God!" Mrs. Smith > exclaimed, grasping at her throat. > > "And these twins turned out exceptionally well - when you consider their > mother was so difficult to work with." > > "She was difficult?" asked Mrs. Smith. "Yes, I'm afraid so. I finally had > to > take her to the park to get the job done right. People were crowding > around > four and five deep to get a good look" > > "Four and five deep?" said Mrs. Smith, her eyes wide with amazement. > > > > "Yes", the photographer replied. "And for more than three hours, too. The > mother was constantly squealing and yelling - I could hardly concentrate, > and when darkness approached I had to rush my shots. Finally, when the > squirrels began nibbling on my equipment, I just had to pack it all in." > > Mrs. Smith leaned forward. "Do you mean they actually chewed on your, uh > ... > equipment? " > > "It's true, Ma'am, yes. Well, if you're ready, I'll set-up my tripod and > we > can get to work right away." > > "Tripod?" > > > > "Oh yes, Ma'am. I need to use a tripod to rest my Canon on. It's much too > big to be held in the hand very long." > > Mrs. Smith fainted.
