My wife actually got worried about my drinking so much regular milk, you know, so she got me into rice milk and now soy milk, which I greatly enjoy. A soy mocha's a fine thing.

Jokes:

There was a woman who absolutely loved the music of Billy Joel and Paul McCartney. She loved them so much she decided to have their images tattooed on her body. She went to a tattoo parlor and told the artist she wanted Billy Joel tattooed on her left thigh, and Paul McCartney tattooed on her right thigh. When the job was completed, the artist gave her a mirror to inspect his work. She exclaimed that neither of the images looked like what they were supposed to be. The artist said let's get another opinion. He went out to the street, saw Little Johnny and asked him to come in and assist with a little problem. There sat the woman, with her legs apart, and the artist asked Little Johnny what he saw. He replied, 'Well..... that looks like Billy Joel on her left, and Paul McCartney on her right...... and that looks like Willie Nelson in the middle.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Rachel Blattington

This should be an entirely legitimate misheard lyric to cite, as the first time I heard this sung by Willie Nelson, it sure sounded like he said 'Yuleside'. I must have misheard that, I told myself. It wouldn't make sense, and 'Yuleside' isn't even a word, is it? But on listening to it again and again, I have increasing trouble believing that he didn't actually SING 'Yuleside'. If so, it reminds me that Willie is a well-known pot-smoker and makes me wonder if he might have had just a bit too much of it when he sang this. But still, this has the form of a misheard lyric, and we should give him the benefit of any doubt and assume it really IS a misheard lyric, not a missung one!
