And There's Your sign!

The above statement is the brainchild of Bill Engvall,of Blue Collar Comedy Tour. It stand for something so obvious that this is,a correct
answer. One that comes to mind
Pilot standing next,to a,one-seat jet plane dressed in full regalia.
Mechanic,walks up,to the pilot and says" Are you going to fly,the,plane?
Pilot: No I'm going to a costume party and I'm,standing here until they,pick me up
There's Your sign!
Okay,a story from my own family. Cousin Amanda,i s going to have ambulatory,surgery at local hospital. Amanda,is lying,on a gurney in the surgery waiting room, she is in hospital gown, blanket,over,her and an IV started. My cousin , her husband Brendan is sitting next to the bed, holding her good hand. Brendan is on my Daddy s side so he looks nothing like me. The person,he most resembles is Judge Ito of the OJ trial , even had a neatly trimmed goatee. Brendan is one,of the few cousins on that side I can stand, maybe because,he' s only a second cousin and turned out okay. Those of you who have followed my stories know what I think,of my boy first cousins on that side, most need garroting. Relatives on that side didn't like me because I don't resemble them.The majority are brunette and black hair, I'm tall, fair and have strawberry blonde hair & what was worse- the first child born after parents were married more than 9 months. Thought there might be a slight irregularity in my branch,of the family tree. They wanted to worry about that, take good look at Brendan , unless he's a throwback to the Native American blood nobody,admits to, his mama had an oriental friend, Irish name not withstanding.
Anesthesiologist walks into,the area looking,at his clipboard instead of looking up,finally looks at Amanda on the bed in a gown,and Brendan sitting next,to her fully dressed and says " And who will be having surgery this morning?"

I'm pretty sure they teach them that joke in med school.

Probably so, another cousin this one on Mama's side, her hubby pushing her in a wheelchair because she' s SO far,in her labor. Ward clerk looks up at Sarah, panting, blowing and gripping the armrests for dear life and says "And what are we here for today, dearie?"
For an only child I have an exhausting and inexhaustible amount of cousins. A lot of Happy Harry's and Fertile Myrtles in my family ? tree?
