You absolutely could get money for stuff like this! Pick up a Reader's Digest in the library (or on the news-stand, but then you'd have to pay for it ;)) and read through it. They have all these little blurbs at the end of the pages, funny little things like this, plus a few themed humor columns. For example, they'll have one page dedicated to military humor, another to job-related humor, family humor, etc. Other blurbs might be things people found in the newspapers (funny typos or ridiculous headlines, that sort of thing.)

It's been awhile since I've looked, but I think they used to pay like $50 if they used someone's submission. I have no idea how many submissions they get, but it's worth looking into, right? :)
