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 :)

Send this story to a friend 2 I was on a Southwest flight once that was delayed at the gate
after everyone boarded. The flight attendant said over the
intercom, "We're sorry for the delay. The machine that normally
rips the handles off your luggage is broken, so we're having to
do it by hand. We should be finished and on our way shortly."
