I know it is Saturday but I didn't read this until today so I hope you'll all forgive a better late than never friday humor. -------------- It seems that there was a place out in the Nevada desert where there existed a long stick that stuck up from the Earth at an angle. One day a snake was slitering past and a voice boomed out "Don't touch the lever!" The snake looked around and thought to himself, "Why Not?" "Because that lever is the brake for the world. If it is pulled it will stop the Earth and all on it will die!" said the voice. The snake looked puzzled. "For the sake of the joke, I'll give you the ability to speak." said the voice "Thanks!" said the snake. "My name's Nate. Who are you?" "Nevermind that, Nate. Can I trust you to warn other passerbys about the lever?" "Certainly! You can count on me!" said Nate. Some time later a trucker was barrelling down the road near the lever and happened to get a flat tire. As he walked around his truck he spotted the lever and walked over to take a look at it. "Don't touch the lever!" a voice said. "Who said that?" said the trucker. "I did." And Nate slithered out from behind a bush. He explained the entire story of the lever to the trucker and the trucker nodded, wished Nate luck, and went to fix his truck. A few weeks later the same trucker was barrelling down the same road when he had another tire go flat. This one, however, was a violent blowout and he lost control of his rig and went veering off the road. He saw that he was heading right for the lever and saw Nate sitting next to it. With all of his strength he managed to turn the wheel just enough so that it ran over the snake and not the lever. The trucker jumped out and ran to see if Nate was alright. Sadly, poor little nate had been squashed by the tire. "I'm so sorry, little buddy!" said the trucker. Then a voice boomed out: "Better Nate than lever." --- J.T. ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) on behalf of Bradford Bingel Sent: Sat 9/27/2008 12:13 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Better Friday Humor ** MUCH better!

A man is driving along a highway and sees a rabbit jump out across the middle of the road. He swerves to avoid hitting it, but unfortunately the rabbit jumps right in front of the car. The driver, a sensitive man as well as an animal lover, pulls over and gets out to see what has become of the rabbit. Much to his dismay, the rabbit is dead. The driver feels so awful that he begins to cry. A beautiful blonde woman driving down the highway sees a man crying on the side of the road and pulls over. She steps out of the car and asks the man what's wrong. "I feel terrible," he explains, "I accidentally hit this rabbit and killed it." The blonde says, "Don't worry." She runs to her car and pulls out a spray can. She walks over to the limp, dead rabbit, bends down, and sprays the contents onto the rabbit. The rabbit jumps up, waves its paw at the two of them and hops off down the road. Ten feet away the rabbit stops, turns around and waves again. He hops down the road another 10 feet, turns and waves, hops another ten feet, turns and waves, and repeats this again and again and again, until he hops out of sight. The man is astonished! He runs over to the woman and demands, "What is in that can? What did you spray on that rabbit?" The woman turns the can around so that the man can read the label. It says, "Hair Spray - Restores life to dead hair, adds permanent wave." >From my archives, dated 6 June 2000. Have a great weekend!
