Negotiations between union members and their employer were at an impasse. 
The union denied that their workers were flagrantly abusing their 
contract's sick-leave provisions. 

One morning at the bargaining table, the company's chief negotiator held 
aloft the morning edition of the newspaper, "This man," he 
announced, "Called in Sick yesterday!" 

There on the sports page, was a photo of the supposedly ill employee, who 
had just won a local golf tournament with an excellent score. 

The silence in the room was broken by a union negotiator. "Wow," he 
said. "Think of what kind of score he could have had if he hadn't been 
sick!"

Some time ago the DJ on radio station WZZO in Allentown, PA
was discussing David Hasselhoff, since there was some news
item about him. He went on to say that he liked the show
"Knight Rider" much better than "Baywatch". He said that
Knight Rider was more realistic, since he could more easily
believe that there was a talking car than that Pamela
Anderson could form coherent sentences on her own. 

In February, according to police in Windsor, Ont., Daniel Kolta, 27,
and Randy Taylor, 33, died in a head-on collision, thus earning
a tie in the game of chicken they were playing with their snowmobiles.
