#2026 | Many labs are thinking of replacing rats with lawyers to do experiments… the reasons are threefold:
1. Lawyers are very easy to find…
2. The technicians do not get so easily attached to them…
3. And, they are always willing to do things that rats would never do…

It's much harder to extrapolate the results of experiments to humans when using lawyers. |  | Account Disabled with 2,771 posts. | | Join Date: Dec 2003 Location: Tacoma, WA Experience: Who Needs Experience When You Have Guts? |

#2037 | An eighty year old couple decide to try for a child. They visit the doctor who asks the old geezer to produce a sperm sample in a bottle. After two weeks, the couple return and the bottle is empty. "What's the problem?" asks the doctor. "Well," says the old man, "First I tried it with my right hand, then my left. Then my wife tried it with her right hand, then her left. Then she tried it with her teeth in and with her teeth out, and we still can't get the lid off the bloody bottle." |  | Senior Member with 343 posts. | | Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: N.

#2038 | A Billionaire decided he needed some excitement in his life and decided to hold a Fear Factor type of contest. Having gotten so bored he offered anyone who would swim the length of his shark infested pool anything they desired. A lot of people showed up, most out of curiosity. For a long time no one seemed interested in taking the Billionaire up on his challenge. Suddenly there was a splash and all eyes were riveted to the figure of a man swimming through the pool with one hand and punching an shark on the snout with the other. Horror turned to relief as he man emerged from the opposite end of the pool. The Billionaire pushed through the throng and exasperated asked what the man wanted from him. The man was trying to regain his breath. The Billionaire asked "Do you want my Billions ? The man huffed and puffed. Do you want my daughter, he asked ? What do you want , anything I have is yours. The man finally got his breath and said " I want the SOB who pushed me in. | | | Distinguished Member with 16,200 posts. | | Join Date: Aug 2002 Location: Vancouver British Columbia |
