The Sunday Funnies

We discussed something that led me to say, "Patience pays off!"  "That book The Eleventh Hour said something like that," Dorothy responded thoughtfully.  "It said 'Patience pays off?'" I asked.  "No," she explained, "it said, 'Those who choose the longer road shall reap their reward!'"

Dorothy saw a coffee shop called The Daily Grind and asked what that meant.  Grace said, "You grind your coffee beans.  It's also a pun.  Do you know what a pun is?"  "Yes," Dorothy quickly answered, "and what is the other meaning of grind that makes it funny?"

We got-together with family friends that we haven't seen in over a year.  Dorothy sidelined me and asked, "Why does it seem like all these people know me?"
