Here's one I never heard before:
Joseph Conrad's wife locked him into his study, as she did every morning. When she released him for lunch, she asked, "Joseph, what did you do this morning?"
"I put in a comma," he replied.
After lunch, she locked him in again. When she released him for dinner, she asked, "And what did you accomplish this afternoon, Joseph?"
"I took the comma out," he replied.
