    OUR FOUNDING FATHERS
    Jefferson The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... such laws serve rather to encourage than to prevent homocides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.
    Thomas Jefferson



    Alice is walking throught the forest of forgetfulness. She wants to know what day of the week it is. She stops and asks a lion and a unicorn. Now the lion lies all of the time on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. The unicorn always lies on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

    Alice asks the lion what day it is, he says, "Well yesterday was one of my lieing days." Well Alice cant figure it out just from the Lions answer so she asks the unicorn and the unicorn says, "Yesterday was also one of my lieing days." What day is it?



    I work as a demo in a large warehouse store. We serve people food samples. These are a few of the idiot questions I have heard. I was baking some small burritos and a man was standing their watching me take the burritos out of the OVEN when he asked me "did you deep fry these or did you bake them"!!!! duhhh!! What do you think? Many times people will watch you take items out of a very hot bubbling skillet and place it on the serving tray and they will pick it up and put it in their mouth and scream "oh this is hot"!!! We even have signs at every table saying: CAUTION the sample we are serving may be hot. AND THIS IS MY FAVORITE!!! We always have a sign taped to the front of each and every table that describes the item we are serving, and we always put the box or bag on top of the table or taped to a small oven or microwave at eye level and I would say 8 out of 10 people will ask, after they have put the sample in their mouth, "what am I eating".



    My problem with chess was that all my pieces wanted to end the game as soon as possible.



    Any change is resisted because bureaucrats have a vested interest in the chaos in which they exist.
