I Couldn’t Resist!

This Vincent van Gogh Joke has been floating around for years and every time someone sends it to me it makes me chuckle. I figure we could all use a few more chuckles in our lives, so here it is…….. again! 

   

   Relatives of Vincent van Gogh   

 
Researchers have recently discovered that the artist Vincent van Gogh had quite a few interesting relatives:

A grandfather that moved to Yugoslavia: U Gogh

A dizzy blonde aunt: Verti Gogh

A brother that worked at a convenience store: Stopen Gogh

A magician uncle: Wherediddy Gogh

A psychiatrist nephew: E. Gogh

A niece that danced in a mini-skirt: Go Gogh

A very obnoxious brother: Please Gogh

A sister with a small bladder: Gotta Gogh

A cousin that moved to Illinois: Chica Gogh

A niece that moved to Mexico: Ami Gogh

A second cousin that drove a stagecoach: Wells Far Gogh

A birdwatching uncle: Flamin Gogh

A grand-niece that no one has heard from because she’s been traveling around the USA for years: Winnie Bay Gogh

Happy Painting!

    I went to see an exhibit at the St. Louis Art Museum a very long time ago that displayed some of his work (including sketches) and I bought a t-shirt w/ all that on there. I tried for a very long time to remember what all the names were so thank you for sharing.
