It's too hot
A Duck entered a drug store and took a lip salve tube to the counter.
'How do you wish to pay,' the assistant asked.
'Put it on my Bill,' said the duck.

For an author of 20 books, this is the shortest story I've ever read here.

It is also the funniest. If I weren't in this wheelchair, tied down, I would be rolling on the floor in laughter!

You didn't say if this was original or not. Good to know if I were to pass it on to friends and relatives. You made me wonder how the duck (was he named, Bill?) would carry the lip salve tube. His wings are lousy hands and his webbed feet are only good for awkward walking, so, I would expect that he would carry the tube in his bill or lips. In a way, doing his own lip service. ;-)
