So this guy was out on his front lawn flying a kite, he was really having a difficult time. The kite was swinging wildly, not exactly what you’d describe as stable, so his wife sticks her head out the door and says, «Gee Ralph, it looks like you need more tail.»
Ralph replies «Make up your goddamn mind, last night you told me to go fly a kite!»
My favourite day of week.
