A boy was
in detention from talking too much when the
teacher was talking. The detention teacher said,
"You have to produce a 1000 word essay in
10 minutes. The boy actually did it.
How? Note: he did not just write "A 1000
word essay" on his paper. You'll have to be
a little more clever than that.Answer

This
is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious as to just
how quickly you can find out what is so unusual
about it. It looks so ordinary and plain that
you would think nothing was wrong with it. In
fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is highly
unusual though. Study it and think about it, but
you still may not find anything odd. But if you
work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do
so without any coaching! Answer

TRIVIA .
Question: Over
90% of the time, this is written when trying out a brand
new pen. What is it?
. LAST MONTH'S TRIVIA ANSWER . Unlike
the kids song "Dem Bones" where the foot bone
is connected to the ankle bone, there is actually only
1 bone in your whole body that is not connected to another.
Where can you find "dat" bone?
In
Your Tongue
The
hyoid is a V-shaped bone located at the base of the tongue between the mandible and the voice box. Its function is to support the tongue and its muscles.

DU JOUR
Boris runs into his friend Gregory in a
bar. After a few vodkas Boris says,
"Gregory, I have a riddle to ask you. What is
purple, hangs on the wall and whistles?"
Gregory admits he hasn't the slightest
idea.
Boris says, "A herring."
Gregory asks, "You say that a
herring hangs on the wall?" Boris answers, "Yeh, you take a
hammer and a nail it to the wall!" Gregory questions, "Okay -- you
hang him on the wall -- but purple?"
"Yes," Boris replies,
"you get some dye and dye the fish purple."
" Okay," Gregory continues
getting angry, "you nail it to the wall, and you
dye the fish purple. But whistles?"
"That," Boris triumphantly
grins, "I put in to make it hard!"
