A whole bunch of us were sitting around my house talking and we were trying to remember a guy's name. None of us could remember his name at all when all of a sudden my friend yells, "Dick!". We said yes that's it. Then she said "Boy, I pulled that one out of my ass". No one said anything until I burst out laughing and she said "You had to go there didn't you?"

OMNI Magazine Contest These are responses to a contest sponsored by OMNI magazine: Grand Prize Winner: When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet, and when toast is dropped, it always lands with the buttered side facing down. I propose to strap buttered toast to the back of a cat; the two will hover, spinning inches above the ground. With a giant buttered cat array, a high-speed monorail could easily link New York with Chicago. Runners-up: If an infinite number of rednecks riding in an infinite number of pickup trucks fire an infinite number of shotgun rounds at an infinite number of highway signs, they will eventually produce all the worlds great literary works in Braille. Why Yawning Is Contagious: You yawn to equalize the pressure on your eardrums. This pressure change outside your eardrums unbalances other people's ear pressures, so they must yawn to even it out. Communist China is technologically underdeveloped because they have no alphabet and therefore cannot use acronyms to communicate ideas at a faster rate. The earth may spin faster on its axis due to deforestation. Just as a figure skater's rate of spin increases when the arms are brought in close to the body, the cutting of tall trees may cause our planet to spin dangerously fast. Honorable Mentions: Birds take off at sunrise. On the opposite side of the world, they are landing at sunset. This causes the earth to spin on its axis. The reason hot-rod owners raise the backs of their cars is that it's easier to go faster when you're always going downhill. The quantity of consonants in the English language is constant. If omitted in one place, they turn up in another. When a Bostonian "pahks" his "cah," the lost r's migrate southwest, causing a Texan to "warsh" his car and invest in "erl wells."

Mouth Cells I'm a bio major at IUP (Indiana University of Pennsylvania) and was taking a cell biology course my freshman year. The task of the day was examining epitheleal cheek cells under a microscope. We had to scrape the inside of our mouth with a toothpick and make a slide from it and i.d. the different types of cells that were found. One girl in the class (a rather well built sorority gal, which is why I sat next to her) was having some trouble identifing some cells. She called the prof. over to ask him. After a moment or two of peering in her scope, he looked up, and said in a loud voice, "Those are sperm cells." The girl turned bright red and ran out of the room. Needless to say, she dropped the class. (Although I spent two weeks looking for her, I never did see her again.) Such is life :) - Author Unknown
