Once a month, a vendor comes in around noon and does a product presentation. And, as a part of their presentation, the vendor provides lunch.

Well, 45 minutes into a very boring Power Point presentation, lunch arrived. It was pizza and it smelled really good. We all thought that we would be eating soon but instead, the presentation continued. Finally, after another 30 minutes had passed, the sales staff cut in on the presenter and told him that enough was enough.

It was bad enough that the presentation was boring and we were hungry, we also had to endure the smell of hot pizza turning cold.

Parents in Britain are up set over a kiddie show. It seems that the person who hosts the show is a young woman who is missing part of her right arm. The parents seem to think that she is scaring the children and want her removed from the show.

Of course, no one is making the children watch the program and the parents certainly can change the station. But, apparently that hasn’t occurred to them.

If she had been cast as a female pirate with a hook on her hand, it probably would have been OK with the parents.

A 10 year old Saudi Arabia girl recently married a 47 year old man. It seems that the father of the girl owed the man some money so to settle the debt, he gave the man his daughter. And while the mother protested, she had no legal recourse.

It seems to me that this is just legal child molestation but unfortunately, it goes on a lot over there.

A few years ago, the company, that my wife works for, sponsored a shopping trip to Chicago. Since this was just a one day bus trip, everyone was responsible for there own meals.

Now, one of Kathy’s co-workers, who was on the trip with us, was a young woman whos’ growth was stunted at a very early age so she was shorter than the rest of us. And even though she was short, she was able to keep up with the rest of us.

But, her size became apparent to us when we sat down to eat in a restaurant. While the waitress brought the rest of us regular place mats, she brought the woman a kiddy place mat and a box of crayons.

We all sat there in a silence of embarrassment until to woman stated that she was used to such mistakes. Unfortunately, the waitress didn’t notice the error until the woman ordered a beer. After checking the womans ID, the waitress realized the awkwardness of the situation and offered to bring a regular place mat. The woman passed.

The waitress didn’t get much of a tip from us.

A 24 year old high school teacher recently kidnapped her 15 year old student. The two of them were found in a motel in W. Virginia after his parents reported him missing.

Where were these teachers when I was in high school?

The students at NYU recently held a protest demonstration in the nude. Most of the passerby s didn’t notice what the protest was about.

I think they would have had a better turn out if they had held the protest in April.

The local grocery store, where I shop, was have a sale last week on canned spinach. Buy one, get one free.

Some how, even a buy one get one free sale couldn’t motivate me to buy canned spinach. And while I like fresh spinach, raw or cooked, canned spinach is too reminiscent of my grade school cafeterias where the slimy green stuff was plopped on to my tray.

The store didn’t have a large display of cans on the end of the isle like they usually do for products that are on sale. Nor did they have a large number of cans on the shelves.

I guess they weren’t anticipating a run on canned spinach even if it was on sale.

The Jackson Five are talking about opening a theme park in Nigeria. The park would be built at an old slave port and feature a golf course, five star hotel, a casino, a Jackson Five museum and a slave park.

I wish I was making this stuff up.

The State of Michigan provides car pool lots at various locations throughout the state.  The idea is that you drive to the car pool lot where you either park your car and ride with some one else or you pick up your car poolers and drive to your destination.

Well, a few years ago when gas prices started to climb, the car pool lot that I use became so full that people were parking on the sides of the road.  Then the state expanded the lot, doubling it in size.  But again the demand was so high that people still had to park along side of the road as the lot was full.

Well, today with gas prices down below $2 a gallon, the lot is only about 10% full.  Plus, two of my car pools have quit the car pool in favor of driving them selves so that they can do their own thing.

I guess the price of freedom is something below $2 a gallon.

There are a pair of conjoined twin girls who have recently turn 18. And, both of them have expressed in interest in getting married. The only problem is that share the same reproductive organs. So, it would seem to me that if you have sex with one, you also have sex with the other.

Would they both have orgasms at the same time? Would they rate each others husband on their love making?  If they had a baby, who would be the biological mother?  The more I think about this, the weirder it gets. In fact, it is too weird even for me.
