I need happy thoughts in these nasty times...

Teresa

OK, I’ve had enough of the ‘C’ word! I want to smile again and not feel totally stressed out for just a few minutes. 

Tell me a joke...

I’ll start.

Q: Why do Sweden, Norway, and Denmark put bar codes on all their ships?

A: So they can scan-de-navy-in...

  • Points to ponder:
    Can a wine-taster be fired for drinking on duty?

    Can a singer be paid a flat rate?

    Can a clairvoyant be dismissed for being under the influence of spirits?

    If an employee with dark hair has their employment terminated, is that an automatically un-fair dismissal?

    If the leader of an orchestra waves their baton out of time, is that gross misconduct?

    If a Chartered Fellow is not a fellow, are they a non-fellow Chartered Fellow, or a Chartered non-fellow Fellow?

    O.k. Enough if this frivolity; I'm off back to the serious stuff to try and restore my now justifiably questionable reputation..... :-)

    Be safe.

    Peter, whilst you’re pondering can you tell me ...

    Why is ‘dyslexia’ so hard to spell?
    Why is ‘abbreviation’ such a long word?
    And who thought putting an ‘s’ in ‘lisp’ was a good idea?

    I don't know about the other two, but dyslexia is hard to spell so that we all get it wrong.

    Dyslexia is hard to spell so that anyone unable to spell it knows how a dyslexic feels when confronted with "babble" ...or is it dabble... or dubble ....or bobble ...or....

    Abbreviation is long because its inventors didn't want anyone to feel they were being sold-"short".

    Lisp? Clearly someone not sinking.
