I may never forgive him.

Dumb Sign On Door

As I walk by an Allstate office I noticed a sign on the door that reads, "Back in 15 minutes." What does that mean? Did they put up the sign 14 minutes ago in which case they'll be back in one minute? If I see the sign again 5 minutes later will it still be another 15 minutes until they return? What if their watch is broken? Does that mean they'll never be back?

Job Applicant

Seen at Popeyes: young man applying for a job wearing a T-shirt the size of a small condo, "shorts" that went down to just above his ankles, flip-flops and holding an MP3 player with one earpiece in so he can hear his music and the other earpiece out so he can hear what the manager is saying. He is told, in Spanish, that they would call him. Yeah, right.

When To Be Afraid

You've just entered the aircraft and the capitan is sobbing and saying, "I have nothing to live for." He then enters the cockpit and closes the door.

Bigfoot Found!

Let's see. The plural of mongoose is mongooses, yet the plural of titmouse is titmice. I wonder what the plural of bigfoot is?

Nut-case President Hugo Chavez wants the country's time to be "earlier" than New York City's.
