A young mother paying a visit to a doctor friend and his wife made no
attempt to restrain her five-year-old son, who was ransacking an adjoining
room.

But finally, an extra loud clatter of bottles did prompt her to say, "I
hope, doctor, you don't mind the noise Johnny is making in there."

"No," said the doctor calmly, "He'll be quiet when he gets to the poisons."

A German tourist walks into a McDonald's in New York City and orders a
beer.  The local guy in the line behind him laughs and says, "They don't
serve beer here, you moron!"

The German is embarrassed, but he turns to the New Yorker with a surprised
look on his face and begins to chuckle.

"And what's so funny?" the New Yorker demands.

"Oh, nothing really, I just realized...  You came here for the food!"
