One day we were riding the Blue Ridge Parkway, winding roads through the mountains. I'd told my sister a joke and she was trying to relay it to Mom and Dad.
Paula and I were sitting in the back seat, Mom in the front passenger and Dad driving. Here's the joke.
One day a Rabbit, a Buzzard, and a Weazel were talking.
They decided to buy a farm to grow their own food.
Rabbit was sent off to get fertilizer.
It took Rabbit a long time, and while he was gone, Buzzard and Weasel discovered oil on the property and became very rich.
The built a huge mansion on the property.
After a while, Rabbit returns and see's this huge mansion.
He hops up to the front door and rings the door bell.
A very stuffy butler comes to the door.
Rabbit says "Where are buzzard and weazel"
The butler says "Mr Buh-ZARD is in the back yard". "Mr We-ZELLE is down by the well"
The rabbit thinks for a moment and says "Please tell Mr. Buh-ZARD and Mr. We-ZELLE, that Mr. Rah-BIT is back with the shit".
My sister being about 10 years old, could not say s.h.i.t, so instead she finishes with, "Mr Rah-BIT is back with the bird do".
My mother nearly gave herself an asthma attack laughing at my sister. She laughed and laughed for hours. About the time you thought she'd stop; she would start again. This included laughing tears, the whole nine yards.

Another time my sister Paula cracked me up. We had been somewhere and Paula had purchased what looked like a train engineers hat. While riding down the interstate, entertaining ourselves, she pulled her long long hair in front of her face, put on my sunglasses,put that hat on. As we drove by cars, she would face them and put up 2 fingers as a peace sign. She looked like "Cousin IT" on the "Adams Family". She got several 2nd looks from the cars to our right. Luckily no one wrecked and hopefully we gave them a laugh.
