VP's Troubles

"VP's Troubles"

When the aged president of the company was out
of town, half a dozen of his senior executives got
together to plan some way to ease the old coot out of the driver's seat.

To their horror, the executive VP's secretary buzzed
him halfway through the meeting to inform him that
the president had come back early and was on his way to see him.

"If he catches us all here he'll know exactly what
we're up to," cried the VP. "Quick, you five jump out the window!"

"But we're on the thirteenth floor," protested the treasurer.

"Jump!" yelled the VP. "This is no time for superstition!"

"College Zoology"

A young college student had stayed up all night
studying for his zoology test the next day. As he entered
the classroom, he saw ten stands with ten birds on
them. Each bird had a sack over its head; only the legs were showing.

The student sat straight in the front row because he
wanted to do the best job possible. The professor
announced that the test would be to look at each of the
birds' legs and give the common name, habitat, genus and species.

The student looked at each of the birds' legs. They all
looked the same to him. He began to get upset. He had
stayed up all night studying and now had to identify birds
by their legs. The more he thought about it the madder
he got. Finally he could stand it no longer. He went up
to the professor's desk and said, "What a stupid test!
How could anyone tell the difference between birds
by looking at their legs?"

With that the student threw his test on the professor's
desk and walked to the door. The professor was surprised.
The class was so big that he didn't know every student's
name so as the student reached the door the professor
called, "Mister, what's your name?"

The enraged student pulled up his pant legs and
said, "You tell me, buddy! You tell me!"
