A woman scans the guests at a party and spots an attractive man standing alone. She sidles up to him. 'My name is Carmen', she purrs. 'That's beautiful', he replies 'Is it a family name?'
'No,' she says. 'I gave it to myself. It reflects the things I like most - cars and men.'
'What's your name?' she asks.
'Bob Titsenbeer'

A guy is going on a tour of a factory that produces various latex
products. At the first stop, he is shown the machine that manufactures
baby-bottle nipples. The machine makes a loud "hiss-pop" noise. "The hiss
is the rubber being injected into the mold," explains the guide. "The
popping sound is the needle poking a hole in the end of the nipple."
Later, the tour reaches the part of the factory where condoms are
manufactured. The machine makes a "Hiss. Hiss. Hiss. Hiss-pop" noise.
"Wait a minute!" says the man taking the tour. "I understand what the
'hiss, hiss,' is, but what's that 'pop' every so often?"
"Oh, it's just the same as in the baby-bottle nipple machine," says the
guide. "It pokes a hole in every fourth condom."
"Well, that can't be good for the condoms!"
"Yeah, but it's great for the baby-bottle nipple business!"

You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night. You
pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for the bus:
1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
2. An old friend who once saved your life.
3. The perfect man (or) woman you have been dreaming about.
Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing that there
could only be one passenger in your car. Think before you continue
reading.
This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a
job application. You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to
die,and thus you should save her first; or you could take the old friend
because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect chance to pay
him back. However, you may never be able to find your perfect dream lover
again.
The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble
coming up with his answer.
WHAT DID HE SAY?
He simply answered: I would give the car keys to my old friend, and
let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for
the bus with the woman of my dreams.
Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn
thought limitations. Never forget to Think Outside of the Box.
However, the correct answer is to run the old lady over and put her
out of her misery, sh*g the perfect partner against the bus stop and drive
off with the old friend for a drink.

Police are probing a gambling ring in the southern Israeli town of Kiryat
Malachi suspected of putting its money on a grim game of chance --
predicting the target of the next Palestinian suicide bombing. Local
gamblers can fill out a form that gives odds for different cities and
regions in Israel, the Tel Aviv weekly Zman Tel Aviv reported. We are
checking into it to see if there is a violation of the gambling laws,"
police spokesman Gil Kleiman said. "We're not getting into the moral
aspect."
The reigning world champion stinging nettle chomper has retained his title
by eating his way through a record equalling 76ft of the plants. Simon
Sleigh, from Forkchurch, Dorset, took on a field of a dozen gastronomic
gladiators at a country pub and confessed after his hour long fiery feast:
"I hate the bloody things, honest. I made every effort to make sure it
did not hurt, it comes with experience," he said, admitting that washing
the leaves down with beer was a factor which "helped enormously".
German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder's Social Democrats have picked an
unorthodox way to try reaching voters: condoms in the party's bright red
color. Red boxes containing 100 condoms with the slogan Feel Good, SPD"
are being sold at a gift shop at the party's headquarters for 44 euros
($40).
You don't need to be a mutant to enjoy three-legged pantyhose. If one U.S.
inventor has his way, all women will soon enjoy an extra appendage on
their underwear. It's a solution to an age-old problem: an unsightly run
in your hosiery. Not with "Panty Hose X 3" (U.S. Patent No. 5,713,081).
With this newfangled contraption, you just simply rotate the pantyhose and
slip your leg into a new, unblemished leg. The damaged hosiery leg then
tucks into a crotch pocket.
Passengers who are too large to squeeze between the arm rests of Southwest
Airlines Co. seats will be charged double for flying the low-cost carrier,
the company said on Wednesday. Starting next Wednesday, its "people of
size" policy will require passengers who need seat-belt extensions or
cannot lower the arm rests on their seats to purchase two seats if they
are flying on a plane near or at capacity.
A scuba-diving couple got married in a shark-filled tank on Tuesday to
protest the rising demand for the Chinese delicacy, shark fin soup, which
environmentalists claim is leading to sharks' decimation. "We wanted to
something different and help raise consciousness of the environment," said
the bride, Julia Khoo, after she tied the knot with Lester Kwok at
Underwater World, an aquarium on Singapore's Sentosa Island.
South Korea is so pleased with its country's World Cup performance that
all of the team's players are being excused compulsory military service
duties. South Korea's defence minister Chun Yong-taek made the
announcement: "It is necessary to help strengthen our football
internationals. So from now on all players of the national team will be
freed from their 26-month army service."
A man who confessed his pedophile fantasies to advice columnist "Dear
Abby" pleaded guilty in Milwaukee County Court on Tuesday to child
pornography charges. Paul Weiser, 28, had written in March "Dear Abby"
about his desires for his girlfriend's 3- and 10-year-old daughters.
Jeanne Phillips, the column writer, alerted police though she said at the
time she was "torn" about breaking her pledge of confidentiality to advice
seekers.
After four months of entertaining humans, Gaak (a name taken from the
suitably sinister klingons of Star Trek) the predator robot yesterday did
what all the best robots do in science fiction: he copied his masters' most
basic instinct and made a dash for freedom. Programmed to sink a metal
fang into smaller but more nimble prey robots to "eat" their electric
power, Gaak showed that a two year experiment in maturing robot "thinking"
may be proving alarmingly successful. Left unattended for 15 minutes, the
2ft metal machine crept along a barrier until it found a gap, squeezed
through, navigated across a car park and reached the Magna science
centre's exit by the M1 motorway in Rotherham, South Yorkshire

A new young monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to
help the other monks in copying the old canons and laws of the church by hand.
He notices, however, that all of the monks are copying from
copies, not from the original manuscript. The new monk goes to the head abbot to question this, pointing out that if someone made even a small error in the first copy, it would never be picked up. In fact, that error would be continued in all of the subsequent copies.
The head monk says, "We have been copying from the copies for
centuries, but you make a good point, my son".
He goes down into the dark caves underneath the monastery where
the original manuscript is held in a locked vault that hasn't been
opened for hundreds of years. Hours go by and nobody sees the old abbot. The young monk gets worried and goes downstairs to look for him.
He sees him banging his head against the wall. His forehead is all
bloody and bruised and he is crying uncontrollably.
The young monk asks the old abbot, "What's wrong, father?"
With a choking voice, the old abbot replies, "The word is
celebrate."

OFFICE INSPIRATIONAL POSTERS
If you do a good job and work hard, you may get
a job with a better company someday.
The light at the end of the tunnel has been
turned off due to budget cuts.
Sure, you may not like working here,
but we pay your rent.
If you think we're a bad firm, you should see
our rivals !
Rome did not create a great empire by having
meetings -- they did it by killing all those
who opposed them.
A person who smiles in the face of adversity
... probably has a scapegoat.
