Jerry's next-door neighbor had a baby. Unfortunately, the little baby was born with no ears. When they arrived home from the hospital, the parents invited Jerry's family to come over and see their new baby. Jerry's parents were very afraid their son would have silly words to say about the baby. So, Jerry's dad had a long talk with Jerry before going to the neighbor’s house. He said, "Now, son, that poor baby was born without any ears. I want you to be on your best behavior and not say one word about his ears, or I'm really going to beat you when we get back home." "I promise not to mention his ears at all," said Jerry.
At the neighbor’s house, Jerry leaned over the crib and touched the baby's hand. He looked at his mother and said, "Oh, what a beautiful little baby!" The mother, who had braced herself for Jerry's comment, was pleasantly surprised and said, "Thank you very much, Jerry." Jerry then continued, "This baby has perfect little hands and perfect little feet. Why just look at his pretty little eyes! Did his doctor say he can see clearly?" The mother who was a bit surprised, replied; "Why, yes ... his doctor said he has a good vision, why do you ask?" Jerry said, "Well, it's a good thing because I'm very sure he can't wear glasses.
* I guess jerry never said a word about the little baby's ear,
but what indirect insult was that,
laughing out loud*
Do you have a Jerry in your family?
