Tom Is Actually Funnier Than I Am

Despite constant admonishment from those around me who say it isn't so, I still think I'm a rather funny fellow. Given the opportunity to try new material out on folks visiting Lambeau and taking a tour, it's been a busy summer. We got three inches of rain in an hour the other day, and I came up with: "It rained so hard at my house that I saw a duck in a canoe." Don't feel bad...I think I only got one laugh all day when I tried it out.I should have probably listened to my wife who told me not to repeat that or any similar ideas I might have on the subject. However, springboarding off the many laughs I got earlier when noting that "raining cats and dogs: I know because I stepped in a poodle" probably wasn't my best idea. However, there are only so many weather-related jokes one can think up. Maybe humor is situational, and I just never appear to be in the right situation. Not like Tim Vine.
Vine was just awarded first place in a joke contest sponsored by Dave TV (those English are somewhat odd, aren't they?) for his "once-in-a-lifetime-vacation" joke. I won't spoil it for you, and I have included the top selections from the contest in the link below.
Yuk it up.
