MONDAY: For sale: R.D. Jones has one sewing machine for sale. Phone 948-0707 after 7 PM and ask for Mrs. Kelly who lives with him cheap.
TUESDAY Notice: We regret having erred in R.D. Jones' ad yesterday. It should have read "One sewing machine for sale cheap. Phone 948-0707 and ask for Mrs. Kelly, who lives with him after 7 PM."
WEDNESDAY Notice: R.D. Jones has informed us that he has received several annoying telephone calls because of the error we made in the classified ad yesterday. The ad stands correct as follows: "For sale: R.D. Jones has one sewing machine for sale. Cheap. Phone 948-0707 after 7 PM and ask for Mrs. Kelly who loves with him."
THURSDAY Notice: I, R.D. Jones, have no sewing machine for sale. I smashed it. Don't call 948-0707 as I have had the phone disconnected. I have not been carrying on with Mrs.Kelly. Until yesterday she was my housekeeper but she quit!From the Good, Clean Funnies List

Oh no...
The following is an ad that appeared four days in a row in a real-life newspaper -- the last three hopelessly trying to correct the first day's mistake.

Thanks for the laugh, Leigh Ann. I spit my cereal out laughing when I got to Thursday.
Have a great day,

I love "REAL" life. It is so much funnier than made up jokes. The moral of this story, to me is, if you make a mistake don't call added attention to it because you might just compound it.
Oh gracious!! ROFL!!! I needed that this morning! Thanks!
Oh no! This can't be real! :) Poor Mr. Jones.

I'm feeling better today, thank you for asking and I appreciate all the prayers and kind words yesterday! I had a bit of a 'set back' lol, last night, but I have more energy today! I was able to wash a few window screens and open up to the wonderful 70 degree weather we are having.
**I don't know if this story is true or not, it came across the Good, Clean Funnies email list, but I believe all the stories are true.
