"The Hardest Job"
An architect watched a mechanic remove
engine parts from his car to get to the valves.
A surgeon, waiting for his car to be repaired,
walked over to observe the process.
After they introduced themselves, they began
talking, and the talk turned to their lines of work.
"You know, doctor," said the architect, "I
sometimes believe this type of work is as
complicated as the work we do."
"Perhaps," the surgeon replied. "But let's see
him do it while the engine is running."

"Spotted Owl"
A lady from California purchased a piece of timber
land in Oregon. There was a large tree on one of
the highest points in the tract. She wanted to get
a good view of her land so she started to climb
the big tree. As she neared the top, she encountered
a spotted owl that attacked her. In her haste to
escape, the lady slid down the tree to the ground
and got many splinters in her private parts.
In considerable pain, she hurried to the nearest
doctor. He listened to her story then told her to
go into the examining room and he would see if
he could help her. She sat and waited for three
hours before the doctor reappeared.
The angry lady demanded, " What took you so long?"
The doctor replied, "Well, I had to get permits from
the Environmental Protection Agency, the Forest
Service, and the Bureau of Land Management
before I could remove old-growth timber from
a recreational area."
