~~Bring a big bolt to an amusement park, and then get on a roller coaster next to some that looks terrified. As the ride takes off, hold the bolt up and say, *Wait, where did this come from?*
~~I’ve started telling people about all the benefits of eating dried grapes. It’s all about raisin awareness really.
~~Did you know that on the Canary Islands, there is not one canary? Virgin Islands? Same thing- not one single canary there either.

Gynecologist who became a mechanic
A gynecologist had become fed up with malpractice insurance and HMO paperwork, and was burned out. Hoping to try another career where skillful hands would be beneficial, he decided to become a mechanic.
He went to the local technical college, signed up for evening classes, attended diligently, and learned all he could. When the time of the practical exam approached, they gynecologist prepared carefully for weeks, and completed the exam with tremendous skill. When the results came back, he was surprised to find that he had obtained a score of 150%.
Fearing an error, he called the instructor, saying, “I don’t want to appear ungrateful for such an outstanding result, but I wonder if there is an error in the grade?” The instructor said, “During the exam, you took the engine apart perfectly, which was worth 50% of the total mark. You put the engine back together again perfectly, which is also worth 50% of the mark.”
After a pause, the instructor added, “ I gave you an extra 50% because you did it all through the muffler, which I have never seen done in my entire career.”

A coffin maker was on his way to deliver one of his coffins. In the process, his car broke down. Trying to not be late, he put the coffin on his head and began heading to his destination. A police officer saw him and old him to stop, so he asked, “Hey, what are you carrying and where are you going?” The man replied, “I do not like where I was buried, so I am relocating.” The policeman fainted.
