    Don't buy flowers at a monastery. Because only you can prevent florist
    friars.

    I have a script that pulls down "dad jokes" off of the Internet.

    Saves me the effort of being punny all the time...

    Sean,

    I have a script that pulls down "dad jokes" off of the
    Internet.

    I get a bunch of them from the Picard Puns Facebook group, which I
    share to my group "The Pun In Life Net". I also get several from the "Louisiana Girls" Facebook page.

    In late April or early May each year, they have "The World Championship Pun-Off" in the park area near the O. Henry Museum in Austin, Texas. The
    humor is drier than the Sahara desert.

    Those are fun. I entered one at a sxi-fi con I use to attend. Out of about 10 entrants, I ended up in third place. I was tripped up be the subject of Lord of the Rings; onlt saw the movies, so lots of stuff I didn't know.
