“The only blind person at Christmas time is he who has not Christmas in his heart” Helen Keller “The only blind person at Christmas time is he who has not Christmas in his heart” Helen Keller

Anyone who believes that men are equal to women has never seen a man wrap a Christmas present.

An older married couple had been Christmas shopping at the mall for most of the afternoon when suddenly, the wife realized that her husband had "disappeared". The somewhat irate spouse called her husband's cell phone and demanded: "Where are you?" The husband responded: "Darling, you remember that jewelry shop where you saw the diamond necklace and totally fell in love with it and I didn't have the money at that time and said, 'Baby... it'll be yours one day'? The Wife, with a smile, blushing: "Yes I remember that, my love". Husband: "Well, I'm in the Bar right next to that shop."
