Enjoy!

I said no, but I can do a pretty good Stairway to Heaven.
I was once asked in job interview, “where do you see yourself in 5 years?” I said, “in a mirror”

I once had an interview for a job as a farrier once. I was asked if I had ever shoed a horse. I said, “No, but once I had to tell a donkey to go away”.
