Why couldn't Helen Keller drive a car?
...... Because she was a woman!

:D I love it, just heard that joke from a friend of mine. I'm a woman so it's safe to tell it.

1. I've always wondered why they put braille on the keypads to drivethru ATMs
Now I realize it must be for women, too.

2. How did Helen Keller's parents punish her?
Clean answer: they moved the furniture.
Dirty answer: they left the plunger in the toilet.

4. terrible
But sort of funny! Still I guess I don't fit the stereotype of bad female driver. No tickets, no accidents. In fact GEICO lowered my rates- I have not had a claim in 10 years with them. In fact it is the males in my family who get the tickets and (almost) cost my Mom her insurance. I told her she should get a policy of her own and let my dad fend for himself. LOL

5. In the mid-60's these jokes were just every place,
Funny to hear then once more.

7. Ever see her nightclub act?
She sang with her right hand and played piano with her left.
