Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread

I'm giving Kevin a nebulizer treatment......that should help. I'll be back.

I'M SORRY GUYS...BUT I CAN'T HANDLE THIS ANYMORE...TOO MANY THINGS
AT ONCE

Joe.....I know you feel like crap right now. But you have to know we all go through tough times. It does get better. I lost both my parents by the time I was 40. I lost a sister when I was 21. My oldest daughter was born sick....we didn't think she would make it and she's 17 and healthy. Thank God. I've had my share of sickness and it's not fun. But you have to hang on to the good things. Things always get worse before they get better. Just look ahead, keep positive. I always pray for God to
give me strength to deal with everything. You'll be okay, just have faith.

ALL I CAN SAY IS JOE JOE JOE
MY MOM ALWAYS SAID AND SAID THIS BEFORE
THIS TOO SHALL PASS
MICHAEL HAS U A GOOD FATHER AND THAT IS A GIFT IN ITSELF

GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY

GOTTA GO TO WORK

HELLO MY QUEEN
WHERE'S THE ROYAL COACH


JOE AND EVERYONE

TIME TO LAFF

JOKE O'DAY

There is a sign in the drugstore window: "Condoms, custom fit."

So a man walks up to the counter and asks for a condom, like the sign
says. The man at the counter tells him to see Edna in aisle 4. So the
man finds Edna. Edna grabs the man by the crotch, then gets on the PA
systemand says, "Medium condom. Medium condom."

Well the man is embarrassed, but goes to the counter to get his condom.

Later, a second man sees the sign in the window, and goes up to the
counter to get his condom. The druggist tells him to see Edna in aisle
4.Same thing happens, Edna grabs his crotch, gets on the PA and says,
"Large condom, this man needs a large condom."

The man is pleased, at least, to be a large.

Next a teenager goes into the drugstore to get a fitted condom, and is
told to see Edna is aisle 4. Edna grabs his crotch, gets on the PA and
says,
"Clean-up in aisle 4, clean-up in aisle 4."
