I was thinking along the lines of Henny Youngman
Youngmans most famous line (too famous for this list?) was Take my wife, please. Indeed, his wife, Sadie, was the unnamed butt of many of his jokes. In reality, Henny and wife Sadie (nee Cohen) were very close and enjoyed more than sixty years of marriage. Thirty for him, and thirty for her. Just kidding: they enjoyedby all accountsa long, wonderful union.
Henny was still performing until the very end, which came shortly before his 92nd birthday. He is buried in Glendale, New York, and his great lines live on.
Here are ten of his quick bits, among very many.
10. Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight, dinner, soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays, I go Fridays.
9. There was a girl knocking on my hotel room door all night! Finally, I let her out.
8. While playing golf today I hit two good balls. I stepped on a rake.
7. Those two are a fastidious couple. Shes fast and hes hideous.
6. When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.
5. My wife and I went back to the hotel where we spent our wedding night. Only this time, I stayed in the bathroom and cried.
4. My wife and I went to a hotel where we got a waterbed. My wife called it the Dead Sea.
3. My other brother-in-law died. He was a karate expert, then joined the army. The first time he saluted, he k**led himself.
2. Shes been married so many times she has rice marks on her face.
1. I just got back from a pleasure trip. I took my mother-in-law to the airport.
OOPS! I cant resist one slightly longer one:
A guy complains of a headache. Another guy says Do what I do. I put my head on my wifes bosom, and the headache goes away. The next day, the man says, Did you do what I told you to? Yes, I sure did. By the way, you have a nice house!
