Insert Your Own Joke Here Department
Fun with Science!
Remember the old joke about the grouch who needed an optorectomy — that fictional surgical procedure whereby the nerve between the rectum and the eyeball is severed to correct a person's (=ahem=) bleak outlook on life? http://io9.com/5987132/bizarre-eyeba...s?tag=medicine |

Gone are the days when girls used to cook like their mothers. Now they drink like their fathers.

I had the pleasure of 'living' this one this past Autumn in Kyoto. I was in a Starbucks having some tea and reading my book, when I overheard some tourists at the next table trying to figure out how to pronounce the city's name; K-eye-Odo or Key-Odo. (Actually, it should sound more like Kyo-toe.) The saw me looking and smiling, and asked if I could tell them how to pronounce the name of this place.... and of course I replied "Starrrrr-bucks!"

A guy tells his psychiatrist: ‘It was terrible. I was away on business, and I emailed my wife that I’d be back a day early. I rushed home from the airport and found her in bed with my best friend. I don’t get it. How could she do this to me?" "Well," says the psychiatrist. "Maybe she didn’t see the email."

An old woman is upset at her husband’s funeral. "You have him in a brown suit and I wanted him in a blue suit" The mortician says "We’ll take care of it, ma’am" and yells back, "Ed, switch the heads on two and four!"

Singer Neil Diamond started his career as Neil Coal. He changed his name when the pressure got to him.

For fans of Neil Diamond I can highly recommend the recording from the concert Hot August Nights from 1972.
I sat speechless for at least five minutes after the video ended. What a magical concert |
