The husband came home from the flea market and said to his wife:
|
||
-"Come out here, look what I bought ! A cage for tigers."
|
||
-"Are you in sane ? What are you going to put inside it ?"
|
||
-"Hey, listen here, I don't ask *you* things like that when you buy a bra."
|
||
|
||
-"My family is angry with me because I like pancakes."
|
||
-"Why ? A lot of people like pancakes; I like them too."
|
||
-"Really ? Do you want to see my collection ? I have more than 700."
|
||
|
||
-"Are you interested in sports ?"
|
||
-"No."
|
||
-"Do you smoke ?"
|
||
-"No."
|
||
-"Do you drink ?"
|

-"No."
|

-"Do you chase Women ?"
|

-"No."
|
||
-"What do you then do when you want to have fun ?"
|
||
-"I throw eggs on fans."

Three young, intelligent and very attractive women were hired into a
|
||
prestigious, large American company. After they had been working for one
|
||
full year, their boss called them in to his office and said, "Congratulations!
|
||
You are all stellar performers, and each of you will now receive a promotion,
|
||
and an office with your name on the door."
|
||
After a week had gone by, two of the women had moved into their offices. The
|
||
third, feeling rather concerned, stepped into her boss's office and asked him
|
||
why she didn't have her name up on a new office yet.
|
||
Her boss pushed himself back from the the desk, unzipped his fly, and said,
|
||
"See this? This is Quality.
|
||
|
||
It was midnight on the ocean,
|
||
Not a streetcar was in sight.
|
||
The sun was shining brightly,
|
||
It had rained all day that night.
|
||
A barefoot boy with shoes on
|
||
Stood sitting on the grass.
|
||
A bumble bee flew by
|
||
And a streetcar stopped to let it pass.
|
||
|
||
One fine day in the middle of the night,
|
||
The ocean caught on fire.
|
||
The deaf man heard it,
|
||
The blind man saw it
|
||
And the dumb man called the fire brigade.
|
||
They came tearing through the streets
|
||
Draw by six dead horses
|
||
(Ran over a dead cat and killed it)
|
||
And arrived five minutes before the fire even started.

||
HOW GUYS THINK
|
||
|
||
By Dave Barry, Pulitzer Prize Winning Columnist
|
||
From The Boston Sunday Globe, August 20, 1989
|
||
|
||
Today we're going to explore the mysterious topic of How Guys Think, which has
|
||
baffled women in general, and the editors of Cosmopolitan magazine in
|
||
particular, for thousands of years.
|
||
|
||
The big question, of course, is: How come guys never call? After successful
|
||
dates, I mean. You single women out there know what I'm talking about. You go
|
||
out with a guy, and you have a great time, and he seems to have a great time,
|
||
and at the end of the evening he says, quote, "Can I call you?" And you -
|
||
interpreting this to mean "Can I call you?" - answer: "Sure!"
|
||
|
||
The instant you say think, the guy's body starts to dematerialize. Within a
|
||
few seconds you can stick a tire iron right through him and wave it around:
|
||
in a few more seconds, he has vanished entirely, gone into the mysterious Guy
|
||
Bermuda Triangle, where whole squadrons of your dates have disappeared over
|
||
the years, never to heard from again.
|
||
|
||
Eventually you start to wonder if there's something wrong with you, some kind
|
||
of emotional hang-up or personality defect that your dates are detecting. Or,
|
||
possibly, foot odor. You start having long, searching discussions with your
|
||
women friends in which you say such things as: "He really seemed to like me"
|
||
and "I didn't feel as though I was putting pressure on him" and "Would you
|
||
mind, strictly as a friend, smelling my feet?"
|
||
|
||
This is silly. There's nothing wrong with you. In fact, you should interpret
|
||
the behavior of your dates as a kind of guy *compliment* to you. Because when
|
||
the guy asks you if he can call you, what he's really asking you, in Guy Code,
|
||
is will you marry him. Yes. See, your basic guy is into a straight-ahead,
|
||
bottom-line kind of thought process that does not work nearly as well with the
|
||
infinitely subtle complexities of human relationships as it does with
|
||
calculating how much gravel is needed to cover a given driveway. So here's
|
||
what the guy is thinking: If he calls you, you'll go out again, and you'll
|
||
probably have another great time - so you'll probably go out again and have
|
||
*another* great time, and so on until the only possible *option* will be to
|
||
get married. This is classic Guy Logic.
|
||
|
||
So when you say "Sure!" in a bright and cheery voice, you may think you're
|
||
simply indicating a willingness to go out again, but as far as he's concerned,
|
||
you're endorsing a lifetime commitment that he is quite frankly not ready to
|
||
make after only one date, so he naturally decides he can never see you again.
|
||
>From that day forward, if he spots you on the street, he'll sprint in the
|
||
opposite direction to avoid the grave risk that the two of you might meet,
|
||
which would mean he'd have to ask you if you wanted to get a cup of coffee,
|
||
and you might say yes, and pretty soon you'd be enjoying each other's company
|
||
again, and suddenly a member of the clergy would appear at the table and
|
||
*you'd
|
||
have to get married - Aieeeeeee!*
|
||
|
||
(You woman think this is crazy, right? Whereas you guys out there are nodding
|
||
your heads.)
|
||
|
||
So, my advice for single women is that if you're on a date with a guy you
|
||
like, and he asks whether he can call you, you should give him a
|
||
non-threatening answer, such as: "No"
|
||
|
||
Or: "I guess so, but bear in mind that I'm a nun."
|
||
|
||
This will make him comfortable about seeing you again, each time gaining the
|
||
courage to approach you more closely, in the manner of a timid, easily
|
||
startled woodland creature such as a chipmunk. In a few years, if the two of
|
||
you really do have common interests and compatible personalities, you may
|
||
reach the point where he'll be willing to take The Big Step, namely, eating
|
||
granola directly from your hand.
|
||
|
||
No matter how close you become, however, remember this rule: Do not pressure
|
||
the guy to share his most sensitive innermost thought and feelings with you.
|
||
Guys hate this, and I'll tell you why: If you were to probe inside the guy
|
||
psyche, beneath that macho exterior and the endless droning about such things
|
||
as the 1978 World Series, you would find, deep down inside, a passionate,
|
||
heartfelt interest in: the 1978 World Series. Yes. The truth is, guys don't
|
||
*have* any sensitive innermost thoughts and feelings. It's time you women
|
||
knew! All these years you've been agonizing about how to make the
|
||
relationship work, wondering how come he never talks to you, worrying about
|
||
all the anquished emotion he must have bottled up inside. And, meanwhile,
|
||
he's
|
||
fretting about how maybe he needs longer golf spikes. I'm sorry to have to
|
||
tell you this. Maybe you *should* become a nun.
|
||
|
||
Anyway, I hope I've cleared up any lingering questions anybody might have
|
||
regarding guys, as a gender. For some reason, I feel compelled to end this
|
||
with a personal note:
|
||
|
||
Heather Campbell, if you're out there, I just want to say that I had a really
|
||
nice time taking you to the Junior Prom in 1964, and I was a total jerk for
|
||
never, not once, mentioning this fact to you personally.
|

|
||
NEWS BULLETIN - Men and women are NOT alike.
|
||
|
||
Sure, you thought you already knew that. But now we have proof!
|
||
After countless hours of surveys and studies on the following
|
||
topics, these facts have emerged:
|
||
|
||
Relationships:
|
||
|
||
First of all, a man does not call a relationship a relationship -
|
||
he refers to it as "that time when me and Suzie was doing it on a
|
||
semi-regular basis". When a relationship ends, a woman will cry and
|
||
pour her heart out to her girlfriends, and she will write a poem
|
||
titled "All Men Are Idiots". Then she will get on with her life.
|
||
|
||
A man has a little more trouble letting go. Six months after the
|
||
break-up, at 3:00 a.m. on a Saturday night, he will call and say, "I
|
||
just wanted to let you know you ruined my life, and I'll never
|
||
forgive you, and I hate you, and you're a total floozy. But I want
|
||
you to know there's always a chance for us". This is known as the
|
||
"I Hate You/I Love You" drunken phone call, that 99% of all men have
|
||
made at least once. There are community colleges that offer courses
|
||
to help men get over this need; alas, these classes rarely prove
|
||
effective.
|
||
|
||
Sex:
|
||
|
||
Women prefer 30 - 45 minutes of foreplay. Men prefer 30 - 45
|
||
seconds of foreplay. Men consider driving back to her place as part
|
||
of the foreplay.
|
||
|
||
Maturity:
|
||
|
||
Women mature much faster than men. Most 17-year-old females can
|
||
function as adults. Most 17-year-old males are still trading
|
||
baseball cards and giving each other wedgies after gym class. This
|
||
is why high school romances rarely work.
|
||
|
||
Hats:
|
||
|
||
Women look good in hats; men look like dinks.
|
||
|
||
Comedy:
|
||
|
||
Let's say a small group of men and women are in a room, watching television,
|
||
and an episode of "The Three Stooges" comes on. Immediately, the men will
|
||
get very excited; they will laugh uproariously, and even try to imitate the
|
||
actions of Curly, man's favorite stooge. The women will roll their eys
|
||
and groan and wait it out.
|
||
|
||
Handwriting:
|
||
|
||
To their credit, men do not decorate their penmanship. They just
|
||
chicken-scratch. Women use scented, colored stationary and they dot
|
||
their "i's" with circles and hearts. Women use ridiculously large
|
||
loops in their "p's" and "g's". It is a royal pain to read a note
|
||
>from a woman. Even when she's dumping you, she'll put a smiley face
|
||
at the end of the note.
|
||
|
||
Bathrooms:
|
||
|
||
A man has at most six items in his bathroom - a toothbrush,
|
||
toothpaste, shaving cream, razor, a bar of Dial soap, and a towel
|
||
>from the Holiday Inn.
|
||
The average number of items in a typical woman's bathroom is 437. A
|
||
man would not be able to identify most of these items.
|
||
|
||
Magazines:
|
||
|
||
Men's magazines often feature pictures of naked ladies. Women's
|
||
magazine also feature pictures of naked ladies. This is because
|
||
the female body is a beautiful work of art, while the male body is
|
||
hairy and lumpy and should not be seen by the light of day.
|
||
|
||
Groceries:
|
||
|
||
A woman makes a list of things she needs and then goes to the store
|
||
and buys these things. A man waits till the only items left in his
|
||
fridge are half a lemon and something turning green. Then he goes
|
||
grocery shopping. He buys everything that looks good. By the time a
|
||
man reaches the checkout counter, his cart is packed tighter that
|
||
the Clampett's car on Beverly Hillbillies. Of course, this will not
|
||
stop him from going to the 10-items-or-less lane.
|
||
|
||
Going out:
|
||
|
||
When a man says he is ready to go out, it means he is ready to go
|
||
out. When a woman says she is ready to go out, it means she WILL be
|
||
ready to go out, as soon as she finds her other earring, finishes
|
||
putting on her makeup...
|
||
|
||
Shoes:
|
||
|
||
When preparing for work, a woman will put on a Mondi wool suit, and then
|
||
slip into Reebok sneakers. She wil carry her dress shoes in a plastic
|
||
bag from Saks. When a woman gets to work, she will put on her dress shoes.
|
||
Five minutes later, she will kick them off because her feet are under
|
||
her desk.
|
||
A man will wear one pair of shoes for the entire day.
|
||
|
||
Leg warmers:
|
||
|
||
Leg warmers are sexy. A woman, even if she's walking the dog or
|
||
doing the dishes, is allowed to wear leg warmers. She can wear them
|
||
any time she wants.
|
||
|
||
A man can only wear leg warmers if he is auditioning for the "Gimme
|
||
the Ball" number in "A Chorus Line".
|
||
|
||
Cats:
|
||
|
||
Women love cats. Men say they love cats, but when women aren't
|
||
looking, men kick cats.
|
||
|
||
Mirrors:
|
||
|
||
Men are vain; they will check themselves out in the mirror.
|
||
Women are ridiculous; they will check out their reflections in any
|
||
shiny surface--mirrors, spoons, store windows, toasters, Joe Garagiola's head.
|
||
|
||
Garages:
|
||
|
||
Women use garages to park their cars and to store their lawnmowers.
|
||
Men use garages for many things. They hang license plates in garages,
|
||
and they watch TV in garages, and they build useless lopsided benches
|
||
in garages.
|
||
|
||
Movies:
|
||
|
||
For women, their favorite movie scene is when Clark Gable kisses Vivien
|
||
Leigh for the first time in "Gone With The Wind".
|
||
For men, it's when Jimmy Cagney shoves a grapefruit in Mae Clark's
|
||
face in "Public Enemy".
|
||
|
||
Jewelry:
|
||
|
||
Women look nice when they wear jewelry.
|
||
A man can get away with wearing one ring, and that's it. Any more than
|
||
that, and he will look like a lounge singer named Vic.
|
||
|
||
Menopause:
|
||
|
||
When a woman reaches menopause, she goes through a variety of complicated
|
||
emotional, psychological, and biological changes. The nature and degree of
|
||
the changes varies with the individual.
|
||
Menopause in a man provokes a uniform reaction--he buys aviator glasses,
|
||
a snazzy French cap and leather driving gloves, and goes shopping for a
|
||
Porsche.
|
||
|
||
The Telephone:
|
||
|
||
Men see the telephone as a communications tool. They use the telephone to
|
||
send short messages to other people.
|
||
A woman can visit her girlfriend for two weeks, and upon returning home,
|
||
she will call the same friend and they will talk for three hours.
|
||
|
||
Low Blows:
|
||
|
||
Let's say a man and a woman are watching a boxing match on television.
|
||
One of the fighters is felled by a low blow.
|
||
The woman says "Oh, gee, that must hurt." The man doubles over and
|
||
actually feels pain.
|
||
|
||
Directions:
|
||
|
||
If a woman is out driving and she finds herself in unfamiliar surroundings,
|
||
she will stop at a gas station and ask for directions. Men consider this
|
||
to be a sign of weakness.
|
||
Men will never stop and ask for directions. Men will drive in a circle
|
||
for hours, all the while saying things like, "Looks like I've found
|
||
a new way to get there", and, "I know I'm in the neighborhood. I recognize
|
||
that White Hen store".
|
||
|
||
Admitting Mistakes:
|
||
|
||
Women will sometimes admit making a mistake.
|
||
The last man who admitted that he was wrong was Gen. George Custer.
|
||
|
||
Richard Gere:
|
||
|
||
Women like Richard Gere because he is sexy in a dangerous way.
|
||
Men hate Richard Gere because he reminds them of that slick guy who works
|
||
at the health club and dates only married women.
|
||
|
||
Offspring:
|
||
|
||
Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows
|
||
about dentist appointments and soccer games and romances and best
|
||
friends and favorite foods and secret fears and hopes and dreams. A
|
||
man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.
|
||
|
||
Dressing up:
|
||
|
||
A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the
|
||
garbage answer the phone, read a book, get the mail. A man will
|
||
dress up for: weddings, funerals.
|
||
|
||
Nudity in Movies:
|
||
|
||
Every actress in the history of movies has had to do a nude scene.
|
||
This is because every movie in the history of movies has been
|
||
produced by a *man*.
|
||
The only actor who has ever appeared nude in the movies is Richard Gere.
|
||
This is another reason why men hate him.
|
||
|
||
David Letterman:
|
||
|
||
Men think David Letterman is the funniest man on the face of the
|
||
Earth. Women think he is a mean, semi-dorky guy who always has a
|
||
bad haircut.
|
||
|
||
Cameras:
|
||
|
||
Men take photography very seriously. They'll shell out $4,000 for
|
||
state-of-the-art equipment, and build darkrooms, and take photography classes.
|
||
Women purchase Kodak Instamatics.
|
||
Of course, women always end up taking better pictures.
|
||
|
||
Politics:
|
||
|
||
Men love to talk politics, but often they forget to do political things
|
||
such as voting.
|
||
Women are very happy that another generation of Kennedys is growing up and
|
||
getting into politics, because they will be able to campaign for them and cry on
|
||
election night.
|
||
|
||
Locker Rooms:
|
||
|
||
In the locker room, men talk about three things: money, football, and
|
||
women. They exaggerate about money, they don't know football nearly as
|
||
well as they think they do, and they fabricate stories about women.
|
||
Women talk about one thing in the locker room--sex. And not in abstract
|
||
terms, either. They are extremely graphic and technical, and THEY NEVER LIE.
|
||
|
||
Laundry:
|
||
|
||
Women do laundry every couple of days. A man will wear every
|
||
article of clothing he owns, including his surgical pants that were
|
||
hip about eight years ago, before he will do the laundry. When he
|
||
is finally out of clothes, he will wear a dirty sweatshirt inside
|
||
out, rent a U-Haul and take his mountain of clothes to the
|
||
laundromat. Men always expect to meet beautiful women at the
|
||
laundromat. This is a myth.
|
||
|
||
Weddings:
|
||
|
||
When reminiscing about weddings, women talk about "the ceremony".
|
||
Men talk about "the bachelor party".
|
||
|
||
Cheerleaders:
|
||
|
||
Female cheerleaders are cute, sexy, fresh, and all-American.
|
||
Male cheerleaders are scary.
|
||
|
||
Socks:
|
||
|
||
Men wear sensible socks. They wear standard white sweatsocks.
|
||
Women wear strange socks. They are cut way below the ankles, have
|
||
pictues of clouds on them, and have a big fuzzy ball on the back.
|
||
|
||
Toys:
|
||
|
||
Little girls love to play with toys. Then, when they reach the age of 11
|
||
or 12, they lose interest.
|
||
Men never grow out of their obsession wih toys. As they older, their
|
||
toys simply become more expensive and impractical. Examples of men's toys:
|
||
little miniature TV's, car phones, complicated juicers and blenders, graphic
|
||
equalizers, small robots that serve cocktails on command, video games, anything
|
||
that blinks, beeps, and requires at least six "D" batteries to operate.
|
||
|
||
Plants:
|
||
|
||
A woman asks a man to water her plants while she is on vacation. The man
|
||
waters the plants. The woman comes home five days later, to an apartment
|
||
full of dead plants.
|
||
No one knows why this happens.
|
||
|
||
Mustaches:
|
||
|
||
Some men look good with mustaches. Those men are Tom Selleck and Burt Reynolds.
|
||
There are no women who look good with mustaches.
|
||
|
||
Nicknames:
|
||
|
||
WIth the exception of female body-builders, who call each other names
|
||
like "Ultimate Pecs" and "Big Turk", women eschew the use of nicknames.
|
||
If Gloria, Suzanne, Deborah and Michelle get together for lunch,
|
||
they will call each other Gloria, Suzanne, Deborah and Michelle.
|
||
But if Mike, Dave, Rob and Jack go out for a brewsky, they will
|
||
affectionately refer to each other as Bullet-Head, Godzilla, Peanut
|
||
Brain and Useless.

There were two male students pissing in a bathroom. One was from MIT and
|
||
the other from Carnegie Mellon. After they finished the MIT student
|
||
washed his hands and the CMU student didn't. Sarcastically the MIT
|
||
student said, 'You know, we wash our hands after pissing in MIT.'
|
||
'Well', says the CMU student, 'We don't piss on our hands in CMU.'

What do Polish women and hockey play have in common?
|
||
They both change their pad every three periods.
|
||
|
||
Two Polish guys are in the forest chopping wood. One of them raises his ax, but
|
||
it slips and he cuts his ear off. His friend rushes him to the hospital. The
|
||
doctor tells the friend, go back and find his ear; we can re-attach it. The
|
||
friend rushes back to the woods, searches around, and finds an ear lying in
|
||
the leaves. He picks it up and rushes back to the hospital. I found your
|
||
ear, he exclaims to the injured guy, showing him the ear he picked up. That's
|
||
not my ear, he says. Mine had a pencil behind it.

S O D A, soda,

|
||
I saw the little runt sitting there on a log
|
||
well, I asked him his name
|
||
and in a raspy voice he said Yoda,
|
||
Y O D A, Yoda,
|
||
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
||
|
||
Well, I've ben around but I ain't never seen
|

but he's wrinkled and green
|
||
Oh my Yoda,
|
||
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
||
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
||
|
||
Now, I left home just a week before,
|
||
and I ain't never been a Jedi before
|
||
but Obi-Wan said "You stay the course,
|
||
You go to Yoda and he'll show you the Force."
|
||
|
||
Now, I'm not the kind that'll argue with Ben
|
||
So it looks I'm gonna start all over again
|
||
with my Yoda,
|
||
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
||
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
||
|
||
So I picked up some rocks,
|
||
Just by using my head,
|
||
But I won't forget what Yoda said, he said
|
||
"Luke, stay away from the darker side,
|
||
and if yo ustart to go astray let the Force be your guide."
|
||
Oh my Yoda,
|
||
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
||
|
||
He said, "I know Darth Vader's really got you annoyed,
|
||
But, remember if you kill him then
|
||
you'll be unemployed!"
|
||
Oh my Yoda,
|
||
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
|
||
|
||
Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess
|
||
so it looks like I'll be leaving Yoda, I guess
|
||
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
|
||
I'll be making these movies till I'm old and grey!
|
||
|
||
The Long-term contract I hadda sign
|
||
means I'll be making these movies till the end of time
|
||

are all perfectly alright.

hat.

Directive.

|
||
another without serious incident.
|

||
faulty capacitor by the highly-trained and competent engineering
|

|
||
which does not put them on trial.

|
||
Wesley Crusher.

for a change.

An employee of McDonnell Douglas in CA made a habit of robbing
|
||
convenience stores while on his breaks from work. One night, he
|
||
went to rob a 7-11. Not wanting to be recognized, he wore a mask
|
||
during the robbery. What he failed to do was take off his McDonnell
|
||
Douglas badge. The in-store video camera got a nice photo of his
|
||
badge, complete with picture, name and employee number.

A man was very shy, and couldn't speak to more than two people at a
|
||
time without getting nervous. His boss and wife both suggested that he
|
||
take an Andrew Carnegie course.
|
||
He did take the course, and was such a success that they asked him to
|
||
give the commencement speech for his class. He gave his talk on "How
|
||
An Active Sex Life Helps a Marriage". It was an overwhelming success.
|
||
When he got home, his wife asked what he spoke about. Embarrassed
|
||
to tell the truth, he told her "My Experiences while Boating".
|
||
A few days later, his wife ran into his instructor. The instructor
|
||
was saying what a wonderful talk her husband had given. Her reply was:
|
||
"I was surprised at the topic he chose. He has only done it twice.
|
||
The first time, he got sea-sick, and the second time, he fell off!

The conductor is about to start the orchestra rehearsal again after a break,
|
||
when he notices that one of the violists is sobbing. Feeling concernid, he
|
||
asks the violist "What's the problem?" With much difficulty, the violist is
|
||
able to reply "The tympani player loosened one of my tuning pegs!" The
|
||
conductor, somewhat puzzled that something so trivial would be the cause of
|
||
so much distress, says "So?" The violist replies "He won't tell me which one!"

What are two blunders said by hosts for former children's tv shows:
|

Captain Kangaroo: "That ought to hold the little bastards," said just

A few years back, some poor fool decided to rob a bank on a Friday afternoon.
|
||
Stupid fellow that one. If he had looked across the street, he would have
|
||
realized that this bank was next to FBI headquarters, and it was payday.
|
||
Virtually every person in the bank was an agent! Needless to say, this hapless
|
||
fool got a quick lesson in law enforcement technique...
|
||
|
||
My cousin used to work for, er, qantel, and there were some boxes of
|
||
garbage sitting on the loading dock. You bet someone stole them, after all,
|
||
they were labled printer boxes and such!!
|
||
|
||
This reminds me of the stories which appeared in the press a few years
|
||
ago during a garbage strike in N.Y. Apparently, the cabbies started wrapping
|
||
up their garbage and putting it in the back of their cab. It was always gone
|
||
by the end of their shift.
|
||
|
||
In College Park, GA, a suburb of Atlanta, an armed man entered a La
|
||
Quinta hotel lobby with the intention of robbing the place. He pulled out
|
||
his gun and demanded money from the hotel clerk. The funny thing is that
|
||
the robber never noticed that there was a FULLY-UNIFORMED police officer
|
||
standing less than 15 feet away in the lobby. Not only that, but the hotel
|
||
security camera filmed the entire episode, including the arrest. The local
|
||
television stations showed the tape on the evening news.
|
||
|
||
The stupidest tricks I've heard of, though, are always bank robbers.
|
||
Like the guy who was caught walking back to the bank with a can of gas after
|
||
his car ran out of gas while he was in robbing the bank.
|
||
|
||
They managed to enter the place without setting off the alarm, but they
|
||
were unable to crack the safe by drilling holes in it or trying to hear the
|
||
tumblers fall. So they decided to blow the thing open. After a loud explosion
|
||
the safe was still locked tight, but the alarm had been set off. When they
|
||
got to the getaway car it wouldn't start. So they each ran off in a different
|
||
direction as the sirens approached. The police had no problem identifying
|
||
and apprehending them, though. One of them had left his wallet on the front
|
||
seat of the getaway car.
|
||
|
||
The other day, a South Carolina football player didn't want to be caught
|
||
with the goods, so he swallowed six rocks of crack.
|
||
He died a few hours later.
|
||
|
||
A mugger in NY city (about 1965) tried to mug (or rape) two women walking
|
||
through Central Park. It turned out they were roller derby queens, and they
|
||
walked on him with spike heels. I heard that he died later, but I'm not sure.
|
||
|
||
Two muggers in Albany NY (about 1970) tried to mug someone coming out
|
||
of a grocery store. He was walking his pit bull, using a funny black belt for a leash.
|
||
Does anybody remember a few years back when two guys tried to hijack a
|
||
New York City subway train to Miami?
|
||
|
||
How about the bank robber in Champiagn IL. who robbed the bank one day
|
||
and return to the same bank the next day to deposit the money into his account
|
||
and even went to the same teller. Well the teller keep him busy while someone
|
||
called the police.

||

Do you think that illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup??

Los Angeles Times, February 10:
|
||
New York City gave a developer permission to construct a 31-story apartment
|
||
building on Manhattan's Upper East Side. It was later determined that the
|
||
building violates city zoning regulations, even though a faulty city zoning
|
||
map led to the error. So the developer must remove the top 12 stories from
|
||
the building, at an estimated cost of ten million dollars.

A couple of TAC pilots were flying F-102's in escort with a B-36 bomber
|
||
and were chinning with the pilot of the bomber to pass the time. Talk
|
||
fell to the subject of the relative merits of their respective aircraft
|
||
with the fighter pilots holding that their planes made for more interes-
|
||
ting flying because of the manueverability, acceleration and the like.
|
||
The B-36 pilot replied "Yeh? Well this old girl can do a few tricks you
|
||
guys can't even touch." Naturally, he was challenged to demonstrate.
|
||
"Watch," he tells them.
|
||
After several minutes the bomber pilot returns to the air and says,
|
||
"There! How was that?" Not having seen anything, the fighter pilots
|
||
say, "What are talking about?" Reply, "Well, I went for a little stroll,
|
||
got a cup of coffee and went downstairs for a chat with the navigator."

BEFORE THE BIG BANG:

NEWS FROM THE HUBBLE LARGE SPACE TELESCOPE
|

|

The Astronomer was red-eyed, pale,
|

his face was gray with stubble;
|
||
he was 13 on a sliding scale
|
||
of 1 to 10 in trouble.
|
||
|
||
"Is Physics just a fairy tale?"
|
||
he asked, and then began to wail,
|
||
"Why DID we seek the holy grail?
|
||
Why did we launch the Hubble?
|
||
|
||
The launch was good (relax, exhale)
|
||
the data systems did not fail
|
||
we peered beyond the cosmic veil,
|
||
the anti-cosmic double
|
||
|
||
to back before the quarks prevail.
|
||
We digitized each dark detail
|
||
but it was all to no avail,
|
||
it burst our pretty bubble."
|
||
|
||
"WHAT did you see?" I asked "Before
|
||
Beginning Big Bang lights?"
|
||
(I reviews and interviews. I edits and I writes.)
|
||
"Before the start of Time, before the Universe's Birth,
|
||
What DID the Hubble show, ten billion years before the Earth?"
|
||
He told me. Now I writes no more.
|
||
I drinks a bit. I edits.
|
||
"Right before the Beginning," he said,
|
||
"is when THEY roll the credits!"

YOUR CO-WORKER COULD BE A SPACE ALIEN, SAY EXPERTS ... here's how you can
|
||
tell (by Michael Cassels of the "National Inquirer")
|
||
|
||
Many Americans work side by side with space aliens who look human -
|
||
but you can spot these visitors byy looking for certain
|
||
tip-offs, say experts.
|
||
|
||
They listed 10 signs to watch for:
|
||
|
||
1. Odd or mismatched clothes. "Often space aliens don't fully
|
||
understand the different styles, so they wear combinations
|
||
that are in bad taste, such as checked pants with a striped
|
||
shirt or a tuxedo jacket with blue jeans or sneakers," noted
|
||
Brad Steiger, a renowned UFO investigator and author.
|
||
|
||
2. Strange diet or unusual eating habits. Space aliens might
|
||
eat French fires with a spoon or gobble down large amounts of
|
||
pills, the experts say.
|
||
|
||
3. Bizarre sense of humor. Space aliens whho don't understand
|
||
earthly humor may laugh during a serious company training film
|
||
or tell jokes that no one understands, said Steiger.
|
||
|
||
4. Takes frequent sick days. A space alien might need extra
|
||
time off to "rejuvenate its energy," said Dr. Thomas Easton,
|
||
a theoretical biologist and futurist.
|
||
|
||
5. Keeps a written or tape recorded diary. "Aliens are constantly
|
||
gathering information." said Steiger.
|
||
|
||
6. Misuses everday items. "A space alien may use correction fluid
|
||
to paint its nails," said Steiger.
|
||
|
||
7. Constant questioning about customs of co-workers. Space aliens
|
||
who are trying to learn about earth culture might ask questions that
|
||
seem stupid, Easton said.
|
||
|
||
"For example, a co-worker may ask why so many Americans picnic on
|
||
the Fourth of July," noted Steiger.
|
||
|
||
8. Secretive about personal life-style and home. "An alien won't
|
||
discuss domestic details or talk about what it does at night or
|
||
on weekends," said Steiger.
|
||
|
||
9. Frequently talks to himself. "An alien may not be used to
|
||
speaking as we do,so an alien may practice speaking," Steiger noted.
|
||
|
||
10. Displays a change of mood or physical reaction when near certain
|
||
high-tech hardware. "An alien may experience a mood change when a
|
||
microwave oven is turned on," said Steiger. The experts pointed out
|
||
that a co-worker would have to display most if not all of these
|
||
traits before you can positively identify him as a space alien.
