My dear old Aunt's favorite jokes

[DeadAye]

Back in the 50s we would drive by the asylum in Westville, IN and she'd tell one of these stories.
Man I miss her....

One of the patients is out by the fence enjoying some fresh air when a tire goes rolling past with a guy chasing after it. After a bit he comes back rolling the tire.
The patient asks him what happened.
"The wheel came off and all of the lug nuts are missing. Now I guess I'll have to walk all the way to town and buy some more."
The nut (so there it is) asks the guy, "Why not take one lug nut off each of the other wheels and drive to town and buy new ones?"
"Wow," says the man, "Amazing - If you're so smart what are you doing in there?"
The patient answers, "Cause I'm crazy, not stupid."

********

A patient is sitting in his room and suddenly there's a horrible smell. He looks out the window and there's a truck parked right outside and whatever is in the back STINKS.
"What is that stuff?" he asks the driver.
"Cow manure"
"What in the world are you going to do with that?"
"I'm going to put it on my strawberries"
"Oh sure - And I'm in here and you're out there...."

I drive by Westville quite often on the way to a target range at Kingsberry.It is no longer a looney bin but has been converted to a min.security lockup . Strange as it seems one time coming back from the range the road & area was swarming with police , troupers ,we later learned that two prisoners had made an escape glad we weren't stopped with all the firearms in the truck
it might have been tough to explain.
