Some great puns and fresh clichés thanks Zac set the afternoon up with light hearted refreshments. I am trying to think of one to add to your comprehensive list. An open door is good especially if you are born in a barn.

A marketer's motto is "Start fast, finish strong"
Well, we could say, "Start with a laugh, and finish by rolling on the floor" :)

Great!
I suggest you create a group at APSense where you post your jokes, we could see them all, else, with articles, after a certain number of articles, we lose the links.
Also, a group would allow us to post our own jokes. :)
