One frog two frog

After each drink Mulla Nasruddin took a frog from his pocket, put it on the bar counter and stared at it. Eventually the barman asked him what he was up to.

"You see," said the Mulla, "so long as I can see one frog I am sober. It's when I see two that I have to do something."

"And what do you do?"

"I PICK UP THE TWO OF THEM," said Nasruddin, "PUT THEM IN MY POCKET AND GO HOME."

TWO SLICES

The Birmingham landlady wanted to please her lodger, Mulla Nasruddin, and the first day she gave him two slices of bread for his package lunch. The Mulla didn't seem satisfied so she gave him four slices the next day and then six slices and had to go on until he was getting ten. Even this was not enough so, in despair, she cut the loaf in half and put butter between the pieces. When the Mulla came in that evening she asked. "Had you enough today, Mulla?"

"IT WAS NOT BAD," Nasruddin said grudgingly, "BUT I SEE YOU ARE BACK TO THE TWO SLICES AGAIN."

WHO'D LOOK AFTER THE SHOP?

Strolling through his country's supreme honeymoon resort, Mulla Nasruddin was a picture of bliss.

"But, Mulla," asked the local barkeeper, "how is it you came here on your honeymoon without the wife?"

"ARE YOU MAD, MAN?" said Nasruddin. "SURE IF SHE CAME, WHO'D LOOK AFTER THE SHOP?"

First meat piece

Shortly after their return from their honeymoon the Nasruddins moved into their new house, and the bride was anxious to put into practice the lessons she had taken in cooking.

Returning home one evening, the Mulla found his wife in tears. Between sobs he managed to learn from her that something terrible had happened.

"Darling," she said, "it was the first meat piece I ever baked for you, and the cat has eaten it."

"That's all right my love," said Nasruddin, patting her on the shoulder, "I WILL GET YOU ANOTHER CAT TOMORROW."

A DOG'S LIFE

"Are you sure that it was a marriage license you gave me last month?" asked Mulla Nasruddin.

"Yes, Sir, What's the matter?"

"I THOUGHT THERE MIGHT BE SOME MISTAKE, SEEING THAT I HAVE LIVING A DOG'S LIFE EVER SINCE."

DEFECTS

"Now that we are married," she said to Mulla Nasruddin, "perhaps I can point out a FEW OF YOUR defects."

"Don't bother, dear," replied Nasrudin. "I KNOW ALL ABOUT THEM. IT'S THOSE DEFECTS THAT KEPT ME FROM GETTING A BETTER WIFE THAN YOU."

WHY DIDN'T YOU WARN

"Hello, Mulla. I have not seen you for a month. How are things going with you?"

"Oh,so-so. I have been married since I last saw, you," said Mulla Nasruddin.

"So I heard. As a matter of fact. I knew your wife before you married her."

"WELL, THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU WARN ME? ' asked Nasruddin.
