When we lived in Topanga we knew a family consisting of a single father and a houseful of young boys. One morning the youngest boy came into he kitchen in time to see their cat piddle in the toaster. (Why the cat did so, nobody could ever figure out. Never had any other similar problems with the beast.) He went to tell his father and while he was out of the room one of his brothers came in and tried to make some toast. Now, at its best, cat piddle is not readily confused with Chanel No. 5, and when burned it is far, far worse. They had to leave the windows open for days, and the neighbors had comments. Now, whenever I think I'm having a bad day, I remind myself that today, at least, the cat didn't pee in the toaster. Allen H.

Barnum, the famed circus magnate, hung a large sign over one of the exits of his museum which read, "This way to the egress." Many people in the crowds, eager to see what an egress looked like, passed through the door and found themselves out on the street.

Underneath was a lawyer milking the cow. Send this story to a friend 3
