I will mail a pristine, brand-new copy of Frommer’s Guide to Italy 2008 (a $23.99 value!) to the person who posts the funniest joke in the comment section of this post before November 15.  So if you are heading to Italy anytime soon, or know someone who is and want to scratch them off your Christmas gift list, be funny. Be very, very funny.

And if you aren’t going to Italy, head on over to the Bloggy Giveaways and see if there is something else you might like.

Why is a giraffe's neck so long?

It has to be that long to reach his head.

I am just not funny. Hahahahahaha, wasn't that a good one?

I would love to give this to a friend whose dream is to travel to Italy!

Dionna October 27, 2008 at 8:18 pm

My husband loves to travel and we'd love to go to Italy one of these days. Count us in!

I'm not funny and don't know any jokes, but I do love Italy. I was there last May and it was the best vacation ever and has now become my most favorite place to visit, so I WILL be going back, one day…..

OK these are the most recent one's that I've heard:

1) How can you tell when a stupid person has been working at your computer?
There is white out all over the screen.

2) Q: What do you call a dog with no legs?
A: It doesn't matter, he's not going to come anyway.

3) Q: What has 132 legs and 8 teeth?
A: The front row of a Garth Brooks concert!

OK that's what I got!

OK, I'm not funny at all but here is my lame Halloween joke:
What is a vampire's favorite breed of dog?
Bloodhound!

My son and DIL are taking a trip to Italy next spring, so this would be a great resource for them to have! Thanks for the chance to win your great giveaway!

in st louis you have to say a joke before you get candy trick or treating and my husband and i were just talking about the funniest one we heard –
= what's the do you call a cross between an elephant and a rhino?
– 'ell if i know…

way funnier with the punch line delivered by a 4 year old, as it was to us. :)

Jenni October 29, 2008 at 7:56 pm

Okay, I'm not great at jokes, but my plan is that we're going to Italy for our anniversary–might up being our 30th, but still..

Also, I'm a Mormon and the best joke I can think of is a Mormon joke:

Q: What's the difference between a Mormon wedding and a non-Mormon wedding?

A: In a Mormon wedding, the MOTHER of the bride is pregnant.

What goes clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop, bang, bang, bang, clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop?

An Amish drive by shooting.

Wait, you didnt want the worst joke ever?

karen c. October 30, 2008 at 4:53 pm

I can't think of any jokes, so you get the one my 2 year old niece told me yesterday while we were chatting on Skype:

Knock Knock!
Who's there?
Boo!
Boo who?
Don't cry! It was only a joke!

It was definitely funny when she told it to me. And again later when she tried to tell it without any help and it came out: “Knock knock. Boowho. Don't cry.”

Carolsue October 30, 2008 at 6:10 pm

We are in the process of planning a cruise that would actually stop in Italy!
Q: Where's the most dangerous place to go trick-or-treating?
A: On the psycho path!

Lisa October 30, 2008 at 10:01 pm

What do you get when you cross a vampire and a snowman?
Frostbite…

I am planning a trip to Italy next summer to meet my extended family for the first time! I am so excited and would really appreciate this book to get me started! Thanks!

How many politicians does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
As many as we can charge to the taxpayers.

Hope you like it in view of the political air around us ;)

Two sausages are sitting in a pan. The first one says “Is it me or is it getting really hot in here?” The second sausage says “Oh my god! A talking sausage!”

That's all I got.

How many yankees does it take to screw in an lightbulb?

None. Thats what rednecks are for.

I know, I know. But that's all I got right now. It's the most recent one I heard so it's the one that's sticking in my mind at the moment.
Thanks for the giveaway. Italy is beautiful. I'm hoping to go there soon and sure could use this.

Here's a joke!

My wife was in labor with our first child. Things were going pretty well when suddenly she began to shout, “Shouldn't, couldn't, wouldn't, didn't, can't!”
“Doctor, what's wrong with my wife?”
“Nothing. She's just having contractions.”

Aahahahaaaaaaaa! If only it really were like that!
