Flying Act

"Flying Act"

A man decides to join the circus. He shows up
to demonstrate his skills to the impresario.

"I have the most unusual act," he announces.
"I'm sure it will amaze you."

He proceeds to climb a tall tower, and jumps off.
He flaps his arms wildly, and finally his fall slows.
He soars forward, then swoops upward, turns
and swoops back again. Finally he stops in mid
air and gently lowers himself to the ground.

The impresario stares blankly at him for a long time.

Finally he says, "Is that all you've got? Bird imitations?"

"Frankenstein"

I learned a brand-new term this weekend. I was
having a beer with old Mason and he was telling
about this girl he met in a bar who he was really
hitting it off with.

He said he thought things were going really well
until he gave her the 'Frankenstein.'

"What, praytell," said I, "is the Frankenstein?"

"That's when you go in to kiss a girl with your
arms open and your mouth all hanging wide,
and she turns and runs away screaming,"
he explained.

"Mmmm...not too good for the ego."

"You're telling me."

Well, "I concluded, "at least she didn't run you
through with a pitchfork."
