WARNING: Somewhat off-colour word joke to follow.

Last Christmas the whole family was at my parents. The younger grandchildren were playing the basement so there were just the adult children, spouses and grandchildren present.

Somehow the hanged/hung thing came up and my sister told the following joke:

Did you hear about the plastic surgeon who hung himself?

Two groups in room didn't laugh - my venerable mother ("people are hanged not hung), and the grandchildren that didn't know that the difference between hanged and hung.

P.S. Thanks to all for the welcome back. School is done - I almost have a life back!
