Not an ugly joke, but...

When I was born my mother said what a treasure.
My dad turned and said, "Yes ... Let's bury him".



PS It's my wife's birthday too. Not as ugly as we are thank goodness!

You were so ugly as a child your mother had to tie a steak around your neck so the dog would play with you.

Happy Birthday Mark. Come to think about it, I was 42 when I was your age. As Rodney used to say, Hell when I was born I was so ugly the doc told my mom,, we did all we could, but he pulled through anyway.
