The letter from the Air Force colonel in charge of safety said 
that rocket boosters weighing more than 300,000 pounds "have 
an explosive force upon surface impact that is sufficient to 
exceed the accepted overpressure threshhold of physiological 
damage for exposed personnel."

In other words, if a 300,000-pound booster rocket falls on 
someone, he or she will die.

In Cali, Colombia, a woman may only have sex with her
husband, and the first time this happens, her mother
must be in the room to witness the act.

I've just got some awful news.

A friend of mine is in danger of losing his license
to practice medicine. He's being accused of having
sex with some of his patients.

It's such a stupid waste! He was the best veterinarian in town.
