Joke No. 267

The Expert

I was working in the sun all day, putting finishing touches on
the new deck outside my house. My sister pulled into the
driveway, greeted me, and looked over my work.

"Wow, Steve," she gushed, "you're an expert."

Gloating, feeling like the king that I am, but trying not to see
egotistical, I responded, "Once you get going, it's pretty easy."

She looked puzzled, and I wondered if I'd misunderstood her.
So I asked, "What did you say, Jen?"

She replied, "I said, your neck's burnt!"
