And a little humor from the Reader's Digest (can you tell I like that rag?)...

CARTOON QUIPS

Son to father: "Can you help me with my ethics homework, or would that be missing the point?"

One dog to another: "What if the hand that feeds us is surprisingly tasty?"

My dream job would be editing a collection of The Best of Reader's Digest Humor!

This is from memory, but years ago they ran one of my favorite stories: Written by a lady who was visiting the hospital with a friend. They were on the elevator when a guy in a white uniform got on, wheeling this huge contraption with dials, hoses, and buttons. The friend said to the guy, "Boy, I'd hate to be hooked up to that thing!" "So would I," the man in the white uniform replied. "It's a floor polisher!" ;)

More humor...also from Reader's Digest.

There is a folk belief that if you bury a statue of St. Joseph on a piece of property, it will be sold more quickly. When I was getting ready to move, I took the St. Joseph from my Nativity scene and buried it near my front door. A few days later a woman mad an offer. Since she had to sell her home, I suggested she enlist the help of the saint as well.

After a month of burying the statue all over her lawn she had no nibbles, and, in disgust, threw the statue out with her trash.

A week later she opened her local paper and read: "Town Sells Landfill to Private Developer."
