"A casino in South Dakota was robbed by a man dressed as a
mummy. The police described the suspect as anywhere between
25 and 8,000 years old." -Craig Ferguson
When his son refused to get a job, his father insisted he
join the Army. At the induction physical, the Army doctor
directed the reluctant recruit to read the eye chart across
the room. "What chart?" the young man asked.
"The one on the wall! "The doctor said.
"What wall?"
Sensing he had a deadbeat on his hands, the doctor asked
his beautiful nurse to walk in naked. "What do you see now?"
"Nothing."
"Well, you may not see anything," the doctor said," but
your indicator is pointing toward Ft. Jackson! Welcome to
the Army son."

Company Examination
A company was hiring new staff. One question in the written exam was:
You are driving your car in a wild stormy night. You pass by a bus
station, and you see three people waiting for the bus: an old lady
who looks as if she is about to die, a doctor who had once saved your
life, a person you have been dreaming to be with. You can only take
one passenger in your car. Which one will you choose? Please explain
your answer.
Think about it before you continue reading.
This must be some kind of personality test. Every answer has its reasoning.
You could pick up the old lady. She is going to die, and thus you
should save her first. You could take the doctor, because he once
saved your life. This will be the perfect chance to pay him back.
However, you could always pay the doctor back in the future, but you
may never be able to find the perfect love once you pass this chance.
The candidate who was eventually hired (out of 200 applicants) did
not have to explain his answer.
WHAT DID HE SAY?
He simply answered: "Give the car key to the doctor. Let him take the
old lady to the hospital. I will stay and wait for the bus with the
person of my dreams."

A Touch of Home
Although we were being married in New Hampshire, I wanted to add a
touch of my home state, Kansas, to the wedding. My fiancee,
explaining this to a friend, said that we were planning to have wheat
rather than rice thrown after the ceremony.
Our friend thought for a moment. Then he said solemnly, "It's a good
thing she's not from Idaho."
