Because I was processing my first accident report at the transport company
where I worked, I was being particularly attentive.
The driver had hit a deer on the highway, and the result was a severely
damaged hood and fender. My serious mood was broken, however, when I
reached the section of the report that asked, "Speed of other vehicle?"
The driver had put, "Full gallop."
A minister who was very fond of pure, hot horseradish always kept a bottle of it on his dining room table. Once, at dinner, he offered some to a guest, who took a big spoonful.The guest let out a huge gasp.
When he was finally able to speak, he choked out, "I've heard many ministers preach hellfire, but you are the first one I've met who passes out a sample of it."
Linda: "What's that you're reading?"
Jill: "A diary."
Linda: What's in it?
Jill: "I can't tell you that. A diary is a highly personal and
confidential affair, It has important secret dreams and secret
yearnings. It's private. It's not meant to be shared lightly with other
people. And besides, this diary belongs to Margaret."
