Keeping a Confidence A friend of mine was in the hospital awaiting the ar-
rival of her first child. When I telephoned the hospitalto see if the baby had arrived, the nurse said it had.
I asked if it was a boy or girl and was told that itwas against hospital policy to give this informationover the phone.
"Fine," I said. "I can understand that. But can youtell me what she didn't have?"
"It wasn't a boy," came the reply. Sermon Overtime
The pastor was known for the clarity and brevity ofhis sermons. His talks were well organized and alwaysended promptly at 20 minutes.
One Sunday, he seemed to wander and drift arounda bit and was still preaching to the congregation after35 minutes. His wife managed a small signal, whichfortunately he recognized as a sign he should come toa close.
When they got home after the service, the wifeasked the pastor why he got so muddled and why hewent on speaking so long.
He answered, "Well, I've gotten into the habit oftucking a lozenge in my mouth before I stand to speak.When the lozenge has dissolved, I know it is time tostop. This morning, unfortunately I picked up a collarbutton instead of a lozenge."
Slot Machines I was on vacation, playing the slot machines. It was
my first time in a casino, and I wasn't sure how the ma-chines operated.
"Excuse me," I said to a casino employee. "Howdoes this work?"
The worker showed me how to insert a bill, hit thespin button, and operate the release handle.
"And where does the money come out?" I asked. He smiled and motioned to a far wall before saying,
"Usually at the ATM."

How to Mess Up a Job Interview We've all been interviewed for jobs. And, we've all
spent most of those interviews thinking about what notto do. Don't bite your nails. Don't fidget. Don't inter-rupt. Don't belch. If we did any of the don'ts, we knewwe'd disqualify ourselves instantly. But some job ap-plicants go light years beyond this. We surveyed toppersonnel executives of 100 major American corpora-tions and asked for stories of unusual behavior by jobapplicants. The lowlights:
- "...stretched out on the floor to fill out the job appli-cation."
- "She used an iPod and said she could listen to meand the music at the same time."
- "A balding candidate abruptly excused himself. Re-turned to office a few minutes later, wearing a hair-piece."
- "...asked to see interviewer's resume to see if thepersonnel executive was qualified to judge the candi-date."
- "... announced she hadn't had lunch and proceededto eat a hamburger and french fries in the interviewer'soffice - wiping the ketchup on her sleeve."
- "Stated that, if he were hired, he would demonstratehis loyalty by having the corporate logo tattooed on hisforearm."
- "Interrupted to phone his therapist for advice on an-swering specific interview questions."
- "When I asked him about his hobbies, he stood upand started tap dancing around my office."
- "...pulled out a Polaroid camera and snapped a flashpicture of me. Said he collected photos of everyonewho interviewed him."
- "Said he wasn't interested because the position paidtoo much."
- "During the interview, an alarm clock went offfrom the candidate's brief case. He took it out, shut itoff, apologized and said he had to leave for another in-terview."
- "Candidate said he really didn't want to get a job,but the unemployment office needed proof that he waslooking for one."
-The only reason people get lost in thought is be-cause it's unfamiliar territory.

Food, Family, and Philosophy A boy is about to go on his first date, and is nervous
about what to talk about. He asks his father for advice.The father replies: "My son, there are three subjectsthat always work. These are food, family, and philoso-phy."
The boy picks up his date and they go to a sodafountain. Ice cream sodas in front of them, they stare ateach other for a long time, as the boy's nervousnessbuilds. He remembers his father's advice, and choosesthe first topic. He asks the girl, "Do you like potatopancakes?" She says, "No" and the silence returns.
After a few more uncomfortable minutes, the boythinks of his father's suggestion and turns to the seconditem on the list. He asks, "Do you have a brother?"Again, the girl says, "No" and there is silence onceagain.
The boy then plays his last card. He thinks of his fa-ther's advice and asks the girl the following question:"If you had a brother, would he like potato pancakes?"
SIDNK During the Air Force Academy's basic cadet train-
ing, the new cadets go through a ten-day encampmentoutdoors. Prior to being served in the chow tent, theyare required to do pushups and then get in line to an-swer questions about the academy. If they answer cor-rectly, they are allowed to proceed inside. If not, theyare sent to the back of the line.
One cadet had been sent back a number of times be-cause he didn't reel off the answers. When the poorcadet came up again, a sympathetic upperclassmanasked him, "What does the abbreviation S. I. D. N. K.stand for?"
The cadet bowed his head and replied, "Sir, I do notknow."
"Right!" the upperclassman said. "Go on in thereand get some chow!"
Food Comments "Artichokes ... are just plain annoying ... After all
the trouble you go to, you get about as much actual'food' out of eating an artichoke as you would fromlicking thirty or forty postage stamps. Have theshrimp cocktail instead." -- Miss Piggy

Spoiled Rotten "When I was a youngster," complained the frus-
trated father, shaking his head, "I was disciplined bybeing sent to my room without supper. But our son hashis own color TV, phone, computer and CD player."
"So what do you do when he misbehaves?" askedhis friend.
"I send him to our room." One Liners

Refrigerator A woman went to her psychiatrist and said, "Doctor,
I want to talk to you about my husband. He thinks he'sa refrigerator."
"That's not so bad," said the doctor. "It's a ratherharmless complex."
"Well, maybe," replied the lady. "But he sleeps withhis mouth open and the light keeps me awake."

Crayons Little Johnny had been bringing his drawings home
from kindergarten every day since he started a monthago. Each day his mother admired the pictures andhung them on the refrigerator. One thing started both-ering her. Little Johnny only used black and brownsfor his drawings. Fearing a problem and not wanting itto get worse, she decided to take him to a child psy-chologist.
The psychologist delicately went to work. He gaveLittle Johnny a battery of psychological tests. He chat-ted with Little Johnny. Everything seemed perfectlynormal. Every day for two weeks, the tests continued.Yet everyday, Little Johnny continued to bring homedrawings in only blacks and browns.
Frustrated at not being able to get to the root of theproblem and fearful that something was terriblywrong, the child psychologist decided to give LittleJohnny some paper and a box of crayons and observewhat happened.
Little Johnny opened the box of crayons and said,"Oh, Boy! A new box of crayons! At school we onlyhave old boxes. The only ones left in mine are blackand brown!"
The Speaker A man is giving a speech at his lodge meeting. He
gets a bit carried away and talks for two hours. Finally, he realizes what he is doing and says; "I'm
sorry I talked so long. I left my watch at home." A voice from the back of the room says, "There's a
calendar behind you."

Pool Rules A young fellow with long-hair was trying to enter a
swim club. However, he was stopped by the ownerwho tried to explain that for health reasons long-hairedpeople were prohibited from using the pool.
"Get a haircut, and you're welcome to swim in thepool," suggested the owner.
"Some of history's greatest men had long hair," saidthe young man.
"Those are the rules," hammered back the owner. "Moses had long hair." "Moses can't swim in our pool either."
Scrimping and Saving After years of scrimping and saving, a husband told
his wife the good news: "Honey, we've finally savedenough money to buy what we started saving for in1979." "You mean a brand-new Cadillac?" she asked eagerly. "No," said the husband, "a 1979 Cadillac."
Pony Express At a Milwaukee post office, a woman complained
to the clerk that a Pony Express rider could get a letterfrom Milwaukee to St. Louis in two days, and now ittakes three. "I'd like to know why," she scoffed.
The clerk thought about it for a moment, then hisface brightened and he replied, "The horses are a lotolder now?"
I told the doctor I broke my leg in twoplaces. He told me to quit going to those
places. - Henny Youngman

Ulterior Motive Surgeons invited to dinner parties are often asked to
carve the meat -- or worse yet, to watch the host carvewhile commenting on the surgeon's occupation. At oneparty, a surgeon friend was watching the carving whileHarry, his host, kept up a running commentary: "Howam I doing, doc? How do you like that technique? I'dmake a pretty good surgeon, don't you think?"
When the host finished and the slices of meat layneatly on the serving platter, the surgeon spoke up:"Anybody can take them apart, Harry. Now lets seeyou put them back together again."
Pirates Two pirates are talking. One has a wooden leg, a
hook, and an eye patch. How'd you get that wooden leg, mate? Ay, it got bit off by a varmit shark. How'd you get that metal hook? Lost 'er in a sword fight . . . guy cut off me bloody
hand. How'd you get that eye patch? Well, I was up in the crows nest and I looked up to
spy this seagull. The dang thing got me right in theeye!
Well, how'd THAT make you blind? Arr, it was the first day I had me hook!

Polly Wanna Talk? A lady goes into a pet store one day. "I'm really
lonely," she says to the clerk. "I need a pet to keep mecompany."
"Well," replies the clerk. "How about this nice parrot? He'll talk to you."
"Hey, that's great." She likes the idea and she buysthe parrot and takes him home.
Next day: Same lady comes back to the pet store."You know, that parrot isn't talking to me yet," shesays. "Hmmm, let's see," says the clerk. "I know! Youbuy this little ladder for his cage. He'll climb the ladder...and then he'll talk."
"OK." So off she goes with a newly purchased ladder. Next day: Same lady comes back to the petstore. "Hey, that parrot still hasn't said a word," shesays to the pet store clerk.
He thinks a minute. "How about this little mirror?"he says. "You hang it at the top of the ladder. The parrot will climb the ladder, look in the mirror and thenhe'll talk to you."
"OK," she says, and buys the little mirror, and goeshome.
But the next day that same lady is back in the shop."Well, I'm getting a bit discouraged," she says. "Thatparrot STILL won't talk to me."
The clerk scratches his head. "Let me think....AHA!Try this bell. You hang it over the mirror. That parrotwill climb the ladder, look in the mirror, ring the bell,and then he will surely talk to you!"
"Well, all right, I'll give it a try," says the lady. Andshe buys the bell and takes it home.
The next day the same lady comes back to the petshop, and she is mightily distressed. "What's wrong?"asks the clerk.
"My parrot...well, he died," was the quiet reply. "Ohmigoodness! I'm so sorry for your loss!" ex-
claimed the clerk. "But I have to ask you, did the parrotever say anything to you?"
"Oh yes, he said one thing, right before he died,"she replied.
"Well, what did he say?" asked the clerk. The lady replies: "He said, 'DOESN'T THAT
STORE CARRY ANY FOOD?!!?'"

Software Development Cycle Software doesn't just appear on the shelves by
magic. That program shrink-wrapped inside the boxalong with the indecipherable manual and 12-para-graph disclaimer notice actually came to you by way ofan elaborate path, through the most rigid quality con-trol on the planet.
Here, shared for the first time with the general pub-lic, are the inside details of the program developmentcycle. 1. Programmer produces code he believes is bug-free. 2. Product is tested. 20 bugs are found. 3. Programmer fixes 10 of the bugs and explains to thetesting department that the other 10 aren't really bugs. 4. Testing department finds that five of the fixes didn'twork and discovers 15 new bugs. 5. See 3. 6. See 4. 7. See 5. 8. See 6. 9. See 7. 10. See 8. 11. Due to marketing pressure and an extremely prema-ture product announcement based on overly-optimisticprogramming schedule, the product is released. 12. Users find 137 new bugs. 13. Original programmer, having cashed his royaltycheck, is nowhere to be found. 14. Newly-assembled programming team fixes almostall of the 137 bugs, but introduce 456 new ones. 15. Original programmer sends underpaid testing de-partment a postcard from Fiji. Entire testing depart-ment quits. 16. Company is bought in a hostile takeover by com-petitor using profits from their latest release, which had783 bugs. 17. New CEO is brought in by board of directors. Hehires programmer to redo program from scratch. 18. Programmer produces code he believes is bug-free....

Setting Up CampThe loaded mini-van pulled into the only remainingcampsite. Four children leaped from the vehicle andbegan feverishly unloading gear and setting up thetent. The boys rushed to gather firewood, while the
girls and their mother set up the camp stove and cook-ing utensils.
A nearby camper marveled to the youngsters’ father,“That, sir, is some display of teamwork.”
The father replied, “I have a system — no one goes tothe bathroom until the camp is set up.”
Phantom FishA man was stopped by a game-warden in Northern Al-gonquin Park recently with two buckets of fish leaving
a lake well known for its fishing. The game wardenasked the man, "Do you have a license to catch thosefish?" The man replied to the game warden, "No, sir.
These are my pet fish." "Pet fish?!" the warden replied."Yes, sir. Every night I take these here fish down to the
lake and let them swim around for a while. I whistleand they jump back into their buckets, and I take emhome." "That's a bunch of hooey! Fish can't do that!"
The man looked at the game warden for a moment, andthen said, "Here, I'll show you. It really works." "O.K.I've GOT to see this!" The game warden was curious.The man poured the fish in to the river and stood and
waited. After several minutes, the game warden turnedto the man and said, "Well?" "Well, what?" the man re-sponded. "When are you going to call them back?" the
game warden prompted. "Call who back?" the manasked. "The FISH." "What fish?" the man asked.

Pool Rules A young fellow with long-hair was trying to enter a
swim club. However, he was stopped by the ownerwho tried to explain that for health reasons long-hairedpeople were prohibited from using the pool.
"Get a haircut, and you're welcome to swim in thepool," suggested the owner.
"Some of history's greatest men had long hair," saidthe young man.
"Those are the rules," hammered back the owner. "Moses had long hair." "Moses can't swim in our pool either."
Scrimping and Saving After years of scrimping and saving, a husband told
his wife the good news: "Honey, we've finally savedenough money to buy what we started saving for in1979." "You mean a brand-new Cadillac?" she asked eagerly. "No," said the husband, "a 1979 Cadillac."
Pony Express At a Milwaukee post office, a woman complained
to the clerk that a Pony Express rider could get a letterfrom Milwaukee to St. Louis in two days, and now ittakes three. "I'd like to know why," she scoffed.
The clerk thought about it for a moment, then hisface brightened and he replied, "The horses are a lotolder now?"

Next Time One rainy evening, my husband, John, and I
emerged from a restaurant only to find that he hadlocked the keys in the car. He insisted he could openthe door with a wire coat hanger, so we went back tothe restaurant to get one. There were none to be found.
John then ran to a department store a quarter-mileaway and returned with a hanger. After a few attempts,he got the door open and we climbed in. As we satthere, soaked and cold, he stuck the hanger under hisseat. With a smug grin, he said, "Now if this ever hap-pens again, I'll have one."
Bus Seat A radical feminist is getting on a bus when, just in
front of her, a man gets up from his seat. She thinks to herself, "Here's another man trying to
keep up the customs of a patriarchal society by offer-ing a poor, defenseless woman his seat," so she pusheshim back onto the seat.
A few minutes later, the man tries to get up again.She is still insulted so she refuses to let him up again.
Finally, the man says, "Look, lady, you've got to letme get up. I'm twelve blocks past my stop already."
Pharmacy After receiving his medication from the pharmacist,
the customer asked, "Are these time-release pills?" The pharmacist replied, "Yes, they are. They'll
begin to work after your check clears."

she locked me in the cellar.

The Sleepy Passenger A flight attendant was on the red-eye to Manila
when a water leak developed in the galley, which even-tually soaked the carpet throughout the cabin of the747.
A very sleepy passenger who had become aware ofthe dampness asked the attendant, "Has it been rain-ing?"
Keeping a straight face, the attendant replied, "Yes,but we put the top up." With a sigh of relief, the pas-senger went back to sleep.

Talented Hamster A mangy looking guy who goes into a bar and or-
ders a drink. The bartender says: "No way. I don't thinkyou can pay for it.
The guy says, "You're right. I don't have anymoney, but if I show you something you haven't seenbefore, will you give me a drink?"
The bartender says, "Only if what you show meain't risque."
"Deal!" says the guy and reaches into his coatpocket and pulls out a hamster. He puts the hamster onthe bar and it runs to the end of the bar, climbs downthe bar, runs across the room, up the piano, jumps onthe key board and starts playing Gershwin songs. Andthe hamster is really good.
The bartender says, "You're right. I've never seenanything like that before. That hamster is truly good onthe piano." The guy downs the drink and asks the bar-tender for another.
"Money or another miracle, or else no drink", saysthe bartender. The guy reaches into his coat again andpulls out a frog. He puts the frog on the bar, and thefrog starts to sing. He has a marvelous voice and greatpitch. A fine singer. A stranger from the other end ofthe bar runs over to the guy and offers him $300 forthe frog.
The guy says, "It's a deal." He takes the three hun-dred and gives the stranger the frog. The stranger runsout of the bar. The bartender says to the guy, "Are yousome kind of nut? You sold a singing frog for $300? Itmust have been worth millions. You must be crazy."
"Not so", says the guy. "The hamster is also a ventriloquist."

Overdue Books While working in the library at a university, I was
often shocked by the excuses students would use to getout of paying their fees for overdue books. Oneevening an older student returned two books that wereway overdue and threw a fit over the "outrageous" $2fee that I asked her to pay.
I tried to explain how much she owed for each day,but she insisted she should be exempt. "You don't un-derstand," she blurted out. "I didn't even read them!"
Sherlock and the IRS A stockbroker received notice from the IRS that he
was being audited. He showed up at the appointed timeand place with all his financial records, then sat forwhat seemed like hours as the accountant pored overthem.
Finally the IRS agent looked up and commented,"You must have been a tremendous fan of Sir ArthurConan Doyle."
"Why would you say that?" replied the broker. "Because you've made more brilliant deductions on
your last three returns than Sherlock Holmes made inhis entire career."
Small Town ..... You know you live in a small town when...
...The "road hog" in front of you on Main Street is afarmer's combine.
...The local phone book has only one yellow page.
...Third Street is on the edge of town.
...You leave your jacket on the back of the chair inthe cafe, and when you go back the next day, it's stillthere, on the same chair.
...You don't signal turns because everyone knowswhere you're going, anyway.
...No social events can be scheduled when theschool gym floor is being varnished.
...You call a wrong number and they supply youwith the correct one.
...Everyone knows all the news before it's pub-lished; they just read the hometown paper to seewhether the publisher got it right.
