A mechanic was removing a cylinder head from the motor of a motorcycle when he spotted a well-known heart surgeon in his shop. The surgeon was waiting for the service manager to take a look at his bike.
The mechanic shouted across the garage, "Hey Doc, can I ask you a question?" The surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic working on the motorcycle. The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked, "So Doc, look at this engine. I open its 'heart', take valves out, fix'em, put'em back in; and when I finish, it works just like new. So how come I get such a measly salary and you get the really big bucks when you and I are
doing basically the same kind of work?"
The surgeon paused, smiled, leaned over and whispered to the mechanic, "Try doing it with the engine running."

True story-happened just yesterday,
My wife and her sister decided to join a recreational softball group. Yesterday was their first meeting. The group was lead by a husband/wife combo.
The husband said, "We aren't going to have captions pick teams or boys against girls." "If your birthday is from January-June, you're on team A. If your birthday is from July-December, you're on team B."
His wife, the co-leader said in a very indignant tone, "So you're going just going to have a team of all younger people going against older people?"
That generated a great laugh from all as they thought it was a joke. An awkward silence fell over the whole situation when it was realized she was dead serious.

2. When a passenger of the foot, hooves in sight, tootel the horn
trumpet melodiously at first. If he still obstacles your passage,
tootel him with vigor and express by word of mouth, warning Hi, Hi.
3. Beware of the wandering horse that he shall not take
fright as you pass him. Do not explode the exhaust box at him.

Go soothingly by.
4. Give big space to the festive dog that makes sport
in roadway. Avoid entanglement of dog with wheel spokes.
5. Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the
skid demon! Press the brake foot as you roll around
the corners, and save the collapse and tie up.
I am so wary of the Skid Demon!
Cheers, SB
