Robert A. Chase, 45, was charged with threatening an 11-year-old boy with a knife in Madison, Wis. The boy was watching Chase play basketball with another adult when the opponent accused Chase of “traveling” (taking steps without dribbling the ball). To seek an impartial opinion, Chase asked the boy, but the boy agreed that Chase had traveled. Chase then allegedly grabbed the boy, held a knife to his throat, and asked, “Now. Did I travel?”
There was a huge nut tree by the cemetery fence. One day, two boys filled up a bucketful of nuts and sat down by the tree, out of sight, and began dividing the nuts. “One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me,” said one boy. The bucket was so full, several rolled out towards the fence.Cycling down the road by the cemetery was a third boy. As he passed, he thought he heard voices from inside the cemetery. He slowed down to investigate. Sure enough, he heard, “One for you, one for me. One foryou.” He knew what it was. “Oh, my goodness!” he shuddered, “It’s Satan and St. Peter dividing the souls at the cemetery!”He cycled down the road and found an old man with a cane, hobbling along.
There was a woman who was pregnant with twins, and shortly before they were due, she had an accident and went into a coma. Her husband was away on business, and unable to be reached. While in the coma, she gave birth to her twins, and the only person around to name her children was her brother.
When the mother came out of her coma to find she had given birth and that her brother had named the twins, she became very worried, because he wasn’t a very bright guy. She was sure he had named them something absurd or stupid.
When she saw her brother she asked him about the twins.
He said, “The first one was a girl.”
The mother: “What did you name her?!?”
Brother: “Denise!”
The Mom: “Oh, wow, that’s not bad! What about the second one?”
Brother: “The second one was a boy.”
The Mom: “Oh, and what did you name him?”
Brother: “Denephew.”
