You may not know this. In fact, there’s no particular reason for you to know it, but July 24th is “Tell an Old Joke Day.” Yes, a day apparently exists that is devoted to recounting quips that your great-grandpappy made when he was sitting around a cave with nothing better to do than build fires to scare off dinosaurs.

As such, we’ll likely be subjected to such knee slappers as:
Two antennas get married. The ceremony was okay, but the reception was great!
Or, What did one hat say to the other? You stay here; I’ll go on a head.
Or, Why couldn’t the pirate recite the alphabet? He always got lost at C.
Or, Why did the belt get arrested? He held up a pair of pants.

Okay, enough. (Though, to be honest, I can never get enough.)

In honor of this terribly important holiday, I thought I would fill this week’s column with jokes, but not old ones. These are-brand new one-liners! Some are political, some are current-events based, most are just unfortunate. But all of them are inspired by and related to the current season on Broadway.

So without further ado . . . here is my contribution to Tell an Old Joke Day, with new jokes that I’m writing and not telling. So sue me.
