Mary Poppins

Most of us know the tale of Mary Poppins' stint as a governess/nanny, but many people have never heard of what happened to her after she flew away on her umbrella.

When the two children no longer needed her, she found herself out of work for the first time in quite some time. Of course, a person with her unique and magical talents does not need to search very long to find employment; it was only a few days before she accepted a position in a small troupe of fortune tellers.

She quickly rose to prominence within the group; it turned out that she had a great talent for predicting the early onset of bad breath in her clients (strange, I know, but it's Mary Poppins). Eventually, she left England and crossed the ocean to settle down in Hollywood. After setting up shop, she had a custom sign made to hang above her door. It read:

Super California Mystic Expert Halitosis.

A similar joke:
A frog goes in to a bank for a loan where he is met by the loan officer, Miss Patty Whack. When the frog makes his request Patty wants to know if he has any collateral. The frog says yes, and produces a small crystal figurine. Patty says she's not sure she can accept that, but she'll check with the bank manager and calls him over. The bank manager checks things out and say's "it's a nik nak Patty Whack, give the frog a loan."
