"Bullseye"
One of the best marksmen in the FBI was passing
through a small town. Everywhere he saw evidences
of the most amazing shooting. On trees, on walls,
and on fences there were numerous bull's-eyes with
the bullet hole in dead center. The FBI man asked
one of the townsmen if he could meet the person
responsible for this wonderful marksmanship. The
man turned out to be the village idiot.
"This is the best marksmanship I have ever seen,"
said the FBI man. "How in the world do you do it?"
"Nothing to it," said the guy. "I shoot first and draw
the circles afterward."

"Exclamation Mark"
One of our servers crashed. I was watching
our new system administrator trying to restore it.
He inserted a CD and needed to type a path name
to a directory named "i686." He started to type it
and paused, asking me, "Where's the key for that
line thing?"
I asked what he was talking about, and he said,
"You know, that one that looks like an upside-
down exclamation mark."
I replied, "You mean the letter 'i'?" and he said,
"Yeah, that's it!"
