The following is a little whimsy that brought to mind an old story. Please, read the joke first, it's sort of an apéritif.

A fellow is looking to buy a saw to cut down some trees in his backyard. He goes to a chainsaw shop and asks about various chainsaws. The dealer tells him, "Look, I have a lot of models, but why don't you save yourself a lot of time and aggravation and get the top-of- the-line model. This chainsaw will cut a hundred cords of wood for you in one day." So, the man takes the chainsaw home and begins working on the trees.

After cutting for several hours and only cutting two cords, he decides to quit. He thinks there's something wrong with the saw. "How can I cut for hours and only cut two cords?" the man asks himself. "I'll begin first thing in the morning and cut all day," the man tells himself. So, the next morning the man gets up at 4 am and cuts and cuts and cuts till nightfall, and still he only manages to cut five cords. The man is now convinced there is something wrong with the saw. "The dealer told me it would cut one hundred cords of wood in a day. Okay, no problem, I'll take it back to the dealer," the man says to himself.

The very next day the man takes the saw back to the dealer and explains the problem. The dealer, baffled by the man's claim, removes the chainsaw from the case. The dealer says, "Hmm, it looks fine." Then the dealer starts the chainsaw, to which the man responds, "What's that noise?"


Okay, now to my tale.

A number of years ago (too many really) there was a Scots chap at work who was, how shall I put it, not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer (bright as a blackout, as the wife would put it).

Having paid a visit to the "auld" country he was concerned about his car continually over heating so asked a colleague if he'd be kind enough to take a look at it. The answer was yes so a few days later the colleague turned up to take the car for a test drive.

Picture the scene. Colleague in drivers seat, Scots chap in the passenger side. Colleague starts car and proceeds to drive off... 1st gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear, 4th gear at which point there was a sharp exclaimation from the Scots fellow.

"What did you do there!?"
"Just put it into 4th gear," came the rather bemused reply.
"You can't have," protested the Scotsman, "this car's only got three gears!"

A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from LA to NY. The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game? The blonde, tired, just wants to take a nap, politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists and explains that the game is easy and a lot of fun. He explains, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5.00, and vise versa." Again, she declines and tries to get some sleep.

The lawyer, now agitated, says, "Okay, if you don't know the answer you pay me $5.00, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500.00." This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring there will be no end to this torment unless she plays, agrees to the game.

The lawyer asks the first question. "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?" The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her purse, pulls out a $5.00 bill and hands it to the lawyer. Okay says the lawyer, your turn. She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four legs?"

The lawyer, puzzled, takes out his laptop computer and searches all his references, no answer. He taps into the air phone with his modem and searches the net and the library of congress, no answer. Frustrated, he sends Emails to all his friends and coworkers, to no avail.

After an hour, he wakes the blonde, and hands her $500.00. The blonde says, "Thank you," and turns back to get some more sleep. The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed, wakes the blonde and asks, "Well, what's the answer?"

Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5.00, and goes back to sleep.

And you thought blondes were dumb.

Greg,

Just to reiterate. The latter tale is a true story, as is this one...

Another Scotsman (oddly enough, we have quite a few living around here) had his elderly father-in-law living with him and his wife. To say there was no love lost between them (that's the two fellows) would be an understatement of epic proportions. They truly hated one another.

Anyway, came the day when the elderly gentleman had become too frail (and, perhaps too much to bear) so he was placed in a "home". All was well for a couple of weeks until one evening the son-in-law received a telephone call...

"Mr ******"?
"Yes."
"The is ******* from the home. About your father-in-law."
"Errr.... yeess...."
"I'm afraid I have to inform you that he escaped." (The mind boggles, doesn't it).
"WHAT?"
"He absconded, but don't worry, we've already found him. He was on the road to Ross (-on-Wye)."
"Oh, thank goodness for that! For one moment I thought he was coming in this direction.
