"An Olympic Pun"
At the Olympics in Barcelona, some of the locals
were entered in equestrian events. Other
contestants were surprised to note that the Spanish
riders guided their horses with so much slack in
the reins that they actually hung down across the
horses' necks.
When asked why they preferred such a relaxed
stance, the locals proudly announced, "The reins
in Spain fall plainly on the mane." (By Gary Hallock)

"Medical Advances"
Once in a conference, three scientists - an American,
a German,and a Kawabangaan, were talking and
bragging about the technological advances their
respective countries have achieved in the field of
medicine.
Says the American, "In Washington, there was
a baby boy born without forearms so we attached
artificial forearms on him. Now that he's grown,
he has become an Olympic professional boxer
and a Gold medalist at that!"
The German replied, "That's nothing to what we
have done. Back in Berlin, there was a baby girl
born without legs so we attached a pair of artificial
legs on her. Now she is a three-time marathon
Gold medalist in the Olympics!!"
The Zimbabwean interjected, "Is that all you have,
just gold medalists? In Kawabanga we had a baby
boy born without a HEAD! We attached a COCONUT,
and he is now the President of Kawabanga!"
