UNANSWERED QUESTIONS !
Ever wonder about those people who spend $2.00 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water ? Try spelling Evian backwards: NAIVE
2. Isn't making a smoking section in a restaurant like making a peeing section in a swimming pool ?
3. If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea...does that mean that one enjoys it ?
4. There are three religious truths:
A. Jews do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah.
B. Protestants do not recognize the Pope as the leader of the Christian faith.
C. Baptists do not recognize each other in the liquor store or at Hooters.
5. If people from Poland are called Poles, then why aren't people from Holland called Holes ?
6. Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery ?
7. If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled ?
8. Why do croutons come in airtight packages ? Aren't they just stale bread to begin with ?
9. Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist, but a person who drives a race car is not called a racist ?
10. Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety-one ?
11. If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, then doesn't it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed, tree surgeons debarked, and dry cleaners depressed ?
12. If Fed Ex and UPS were to merge, would they call it Fed UP ?
13. Do Lipton Tea employees take coffee breaks ?
14. What hair color do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men ?
! 15. I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older; then it dawned on me...they're cramming for their final exam.
16. I thought about how mothers feed their babies with tiny little spoons and forks, so I wondered what do Chinese mothers use. Toothpicks ?
17. Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office ? What are we supposed to do, write to them ? Why don't they just put their pictures on the postage stamps so the mailmen can look for them while they deliver the mail ?
18. If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for ?
19. You never really learn to swear until you learn to drive.
20. Ever wonder what the speed of lightning would be if it didn't zigzag ?
21 If a cow laughed, would milk come out of her nose ?
22. Whatever happened to Preparations A through G ?
24. As income tax time approaches, did you ever notice: When you put the two words "The" and "IRS" together, it spells "THEIRS" ?
Never argue with an idiot; they'll drag you down to their level and beat you !

A husband and wife are in bed together.
She feels his hand rubbing against her shoulder.
"Oh honey, that feels good.", she says.
His hand moves to her breast.
"Gee, honey, that feels wonderful.", she says.
His hand moves to her leg.
"Oh, honey, don't stop." she begs.
But he stops.................
"Why did you stop?" she cries ???
"I found the remote..." he replied

The Philosophy of Life.
__________________
A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, about 2" in diameter.
He then asked the students if the jar was full? They agreed that it was. So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks.
He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was. The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He then asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous - YES!
The professor then produced two cans of beer from under the table and proceeded to pour the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The rocks are the important things - your family, your partner, your health, your children, your football team --things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, your car. The sand is everything else - the small stuff.
"If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued "there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same goes for your life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical check-ups. Take your partner out dancing. There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party and fix the bedside light.
"Take care of the rocks first -- the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the beer represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of beers !"

Thanks, JR - that actually came from my aunt of all people!
A word of warning now. Never log in to a chatroom pretending to be a horse. A friend of mine who did this got chatting to a seemingly trustworthy man. In fact it turned out that this man was just trying to groom him.

My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. We’ll see about that.

Some important financial news:
According to inside contacts, the Japanese banking crisis shows no signs of ameliorating. If anything, it's getting worse. Following last week's news that Origami Bank had folded, we are hearing that Sumo Bank has gone belly up, and Bonsai Bank plans to cut back some of its branches. Karaoke Bank is up for sale, and it is (you guessed it!) going for a song. Meanwhile, shares in Kamikaze Bank have nose-dived, and 500 back-office staff at Karate Bank got the chop. Analysts report that there is something fishy going on at Sushi Bank, and staff there fear they may get a raw deal.

Any idiot can deal with a crisis. It takes a genius to cope with everyday life.

A doctor of Psychology was doing his normal morning rounds when he entered a patient's room. He found Patient #1 sitting on the floor, pretending to saw a piece of wood in half. Patient #2 was hanging from the ceiling by his feet. The doctor asked the first patient what he was doing. The patient replied, "Can't you see I'm sawing this piece of wood in half?" The doctor inquired of Patient #1 what Patient #2 was doing. Patient #1 replied, "Oh. He's my friend, but he's a little crazy. He thinks he's a lightbulb."
The doctor looks up and notices Patient #2's face is going all red. The doctor asks Patient #1, "If he's your friend, you should get him down from there before he hurts himself".
Patient #1 replies, "What? And work in the dark?"

An Essex blonde hurries into the hospital emergency room late one night with the tip of her index finger shot off. "How did this happen ?" the emergency room doctor asked her.
"Well I was trying to commit suicide," the blonde replied.
"What ?" sputtered the doctor. "You tried to commit suicide by shooting off the tip of your finger ?"
"No, silly !" the blonde said. "First I put the gun to my chest, and I thought: "I just paid £3,000 for these breast implants, I'm not shooting myself in the chest."
"So, then ?" asked the doctor.
"Then I put the gun in my mouth, and I thought, "I just paid £2,000 to get my teeth straightened, I'm not shooting myself in the mouth."
"So, then ?"
"Then I put the gun to my ear, and I thought: This is going to make a loud noise, so I put my finger in the other ear before I pulled the trigger."

"Well I was trying to commit suicide," the blonde replied.
"What ?" sputtered the doctor. "You tried to commit suicide by shooting off the tip of your finger ?"
"No, silly !" the blonde said. "First I put the gun to my chest, and I thought: "I just paid £3,000 for these breast implants, I'm not shooting myself in the chest."

Two blind pilots were both wearing dark glasses. One is using a guide dog
and the other is tapping his way along the aisle with a cane.
Nervous laughter spreads through the cabin, but the men enter the cockpit, the door closes and the engines start up. The passengers begin glancing
nervously around, searching for some sign that this is just a little practical joke.
None is forthcoming.
The plane moves faster and faster down the runway and the people sitting in the window seats realize they're headed straight for the water at the
edge of the airport. As it begins to look as though the plane will plough into the water, panicked screams fill the cabin.
At that moment, the plane lifts smoothly into the air. The passengers relax and laugh a little sheepishly and soon all retreat into their magazines, secure in the knowledge that the plane is in good hands.
In the cockpit, one of the blind pilots turns to the other and says, "Ya know, Bob, one of these days, they're gonna scream too late and we're all gonna die."

When we used to have visitors on the flight deck, one of the faq's was "Is it frightening as this 747 roars down the runway?"
Our answer was "We don't know as we all have our hands over our eyes"
