<div class="md">
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
A family is at the dinner table. The son asks the father, “Dad, how many kinds of boobs are there?” The father, surprised, answers, “Well, son, a woman goes through three phases. In her 20s, a womans breasts are like melons, round and firm. In her 30s and 40s, they are like pears, still nice, hanging a bit. After 50, they are like onions.” “Onions?” the son asks. “Yes. You see them and they make you cry.” This infuriated his wife and daughter. The daughter asks, “Mom, how many different kinds of willies are there?” The mother smiles and says, “Well, dear, a man goes through three phases also. In his 20s, his willy is like an oak tree, mighty and hard. In his 30s and 40s, its like a birch, flexible but reliable. After his 50s, its like a Christmas tree.” “A Christmas tree?” the daughter asks. “Yes, dead from the root up and the balls are just for decoration.”

<div class="md">
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
She says shes going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for the loan, so the blonde hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
The car is parked on the street in front of the bank; she has the title, and everything checks out. The bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
The banks president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the blonde for using a $250,000 Rolls as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then drives the Rolls into the banks underground garage and parks it there.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
Two weeks later, the blonde returns and repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
The loan officer says, “Miss, we are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely; but we are a little puzzled. We checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
What puzzles us is - why would you bother to borrow $5,000?” The blond replies:
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
”Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return?”
