One of the parts I particularly liked was the old joke "would I,
would I". Not original maybe Rick - but it was funnier in the 
extra context that you gave it. 

It reminded me of two others jokes for some reason. 

One about three tasks given to - a slightly deaf or dimwitted but
stout-hearted Samson (or Hercules maybe).  Another about 
the Big Bad Wolf who got no peace.
