This is (although not at first) one of the funniest jokes I have ever heard...

There was a young boy named Michael who came from a rich family, and right before his fifteenth birthday his father came to see him.
"Michael," he said. "Soon you will be a man. I will give you on your birthday, anything you want in the world."
Michael looked up at his father and said, "I want a tiny black superball!"
Michael's father was shocked!
"I don't think you understand son... I will give you all the riches in the world if you ask!"
Michael said back, "I want a tiny black superball!"
Michael's father was beginning to get angry now, and shouted at his boy, "Listen to me! You can have anything you want! Anything in the world!"
Michael stared up at him, scared, and said, "I want a tiny black superball!"
Michael's father gave up, and low and behold on Michael's birthday his father brought him a tiny black superball. The minute Michael got it, he ran out and found the biggest piece of concrete around, and with all his might bounced the ball, and it disappeared up in the clouds.

This is where you wait about 20 minutes, leaving the person you just told wondering what the hell the point to that joke was! Then you tell them you have another one and make them listen whether they want to or not.

There was a lady named Countess Olivia, who was scared of flying. She was very lonely, and had hardly any family at all.
One day her only known relative in the world, a sister who she never saw, passed away, leaving her in her will a small dog.
Countess Olivia loved her new dog as if it were a child, and treated it so.
Then one day the time came for Countess Olivia to travel overseas, to search for her other family members that she had lost so long ago.
She was very attatched to her dog, and refused to board the plane without it. The airline said they would allow it once under the circumstances, and Countess Olivia was shown to her seat on the plane.
After the plane had taken off, Countess Olivia's dog sat in her lap. The man next to her was sleeping, and when the dog barked he awoke with a start.
"Excuse me," he said, "Could you please keep your dog quiet?"
She nodded, and shut the dog up.
A few minutes later the dog barked again and again the man awoke with a start.
"Hey, shut your dog up please!" the man shouted, and glared at Countess Olivia who was now frantically patting her dog.
A few minutes later, the dog was barking again.
The man lost it this time and said, "one more time, and I'll throw it out the window! Is that clear?"
Countess Olivia nodded, and tried to pet her dog in to submission.
To her dismay, the dog barked again. "THAT'S IT!" shouted the enfuriated man and grabbed the dog, throwing it out of his window. The countess was so shocked she screamed, and as the man leaned back and smiled with satisfaction, she peered out the window. You'll never guess what she saw...

A tiny black superball.
