this joke will go awry someday

So I don't really know what started this, but not long after my traumatic brain injury, I started continually making references to the "fact" of mom using lots of illegal drugs (she doesn't-- that we know of (we're still looking)).  It became a common joke in my immediate family that mom's a crack addict, or name any other drug, such that she's always hiding the needle marks on her arms, theories as to where she hides her stash, etc.
Now this joke almost took a bad turn about a year into my brain-recovery.  We were eating lunch at a table at some fast-food restaurant.  In comes a police officer in uniform, and he gets in line.  Keep in mind that this is REAL EARLY in my brain's recovery, and what I thought was funny just kinda isn't.  So I stand up, walk over to the officer, and flat-out say "Excuse me sir, would you arrest my mom for drugs?"  Since mom could still hear me, she almost choked on a burger.
Don't get worried-- he just chuckled, said no, and told me to take care of her.  Now I see the error in my ways: using the word "mom."  Sheesh, if I'd just said "that lady over there", it'd be wham, bam, thank you ma'am, and mom would have bunked down for the night with Big Sue in the big-house.  The TBI's evident since I still think that's at least worth a chuckle.  But I know much better now about this kind of humor-- best to keep it almost entirely private (inside my head, to dad, and on my blog only).
But that didn't stop us from making continual private references to mom's "habit" ever since then.  And it reached a pinnacle today when mom was incredulous at something I'd said, and asked "Are you into my crack-cocaine?"
WOW.  Just shy of a an ending involving the phrase "visitation hours", this is as far as a joke can go.  When the person the joke's about starts making the joke themselves, you have accomplished something.  Not sure what, but you've accomplished something.

So have a look-see at what I just randomly found.  Please read through the comments, where you'll find my attempts at humor.  Since the background is needed, I left out

Stopping drunk drivers-- just stand THERE

Robin Williams - Bush & Obama - we are most amused, london

HA!  I was looking for Obama's recent thing on Youtube I saw mentioned in the news, didn't find it, but found this gem.

god I love this apartment

So they're finishing knocking down the building across the street, and for a few years, it'll be a park.  A park!
"What are you doing today, Jeff?"
"Ah, going to cross the street and sit in a park with my schoolwork.  Sigh.  Life's rough.  It's all the way across the street, I mean come on!"

And two blocks away is The Barkery Bistro, a store for all of your four-legged friend's needs.  (I was just there)  They have the two sweetest golden retrievers you've ever seen, Bentley & Duncan.  So whenever I need some fur therapy, all I gotta do is walk 2 blocks away!

And I won't tell you about the waterfall 5 blocks away.  Whoops, I just did.  There is NOT a waterfall 5 blocks away.  It is NOT gorgeous, it does NOT have a foot-bridge right over it, it does NOT have a park next to it, and it does NOT have a walking trail that goes to the zoo.

So this apartment complex is currently taking lease applications...

Yeah, I'm staying in Gvegas... that's being continuously reaffirmed.
