"Quitting For Lunch"
First Farmer: I used to quit plowing for
lunch every day at exactly eleven-thirty.
Second Farmer: Did you have a
wristwatch or a pocket watch?
First Farmer: Neither. The whistle at
the sawmill blows every day at noon,
and I would just quit a half-hour
before I heard it.

"It's A Tough Life"
The San Francisco Zoo has an elephant
named Calle who has a chronic illness,
requiring medication. The zoo people
couldn't get Calle to take her dose orally, so
a California pharmacologist developed a
suppository. The 10-inch-long, four-pound,
cocoa-butter bullets are crafted by the good
folks at Guittard Chocolates in Burlingame.
Administering the DAILY medication takes
five zoo workers, including one person to
distract Calle with treats and one person
who wears a full-arm glove.
Why am I telling you this????
Just think -
FIVE people have jobs worse than yours!
Now stop complaining and get back to work.
