JOKE OF THE WEEK
Wilson was driving along the highway and saw a rabbit hopping
across the middle of the road. He swerved to avoid hitting the
rabbit, but unfortunately the rabbit jumped in front of the car
and was hit.
Wilson, being a sensitive man as well as an animal lover,
pulled over to the side of the road and got out to see what had
become of the rabbit. Much to his dismay, the rabbit was dead.
The driver felt so awful that he began to cry.
Greebo driving down the highway saw Wilson crying on the
side of the road and pulled over. She stepped out of her car and
asked Wilson what was wrong.
"I feel terrible," he explained. "I accidentally hit this rabbit
and killed it."
Greebo told Wilson not to worry. She knew what to do.
She went to her car trunk and pulled out a spray can. She walked
over to the limp, dead rabbit, and sprayed the contents of the
can onto the rabbit. Miraculously, the rabbit came to life,
jumped up, waved its paw at the two people and hopped down the
road.
Ten feet away the rabbit stopped, turned around, waved at the two
people again, hopped down the road another 10 feet, turned,
waved, and hopped another 10 feet, turned and waved and repeated
this again and again until it was out of sight.
Wilson was astonished. He couldn't figure out what substance
could be in Greebo's spray can! He ran over to her and
demanded, "What was in your spray can? What did you spray onto
that rabbit?"
Greebo turned the can around so that Wilson could read the
label.
It said:
"Hair Spray - Restores Life to Dead Hair. Adds Permanent Wave."
GET YOUR THINKING CAP ON
A question will be set every week for you all to try and answer. The question will be a mind-bending puzzle, and the answer will be given next week.
The question:-
FUN ON H2G2
I enjoy browsing pages on H2G2, so I thought that I would bring your attention to some of the fun researcher written pages I have come across on my travels.
Now this is something to brighten up a boring chore. 'Games to Play In a Queue at a Supermarket Checkout' is an article by Bright Blue Shorts which shows you something useful(?) to do whilst waiting to pay for your shopping. It's also very funny as well, as you will see if you click on the link below.
NAME THAT SONG
Each week I will print a quote from a song, all you have to do is guess the title of the song and who sang it.
This weeks quote:-
'I believe that children are the future'
THE WEEKLY ANAGRAM
For those that don't know, an anagram is a word or words, formed from rearranging letters from another word or words. An example anagram would be, Cat Got Beer, which reaaranged makes my name Greebo T. Cat.
Each week I will print an anagram and a clue to what it is. You will have until next week to get the answer.
CRUEL SERGEANT
