At a college with a shady reputation, the new dean responded 
to investigations into the basketball team by suspending any 
basketball player who wasn't maintaining a passing average. 
Furious, the coach came storming into the dean's office, 
followed by one of his star players.

"You can't keep him from playing!" the coach roared. "We won't 
win this weekend without him!"

"I don't care," the dean said. "Things have gotten out of hand at 
this college."

"What do you mean, out of hand?" the coach demanded.

"I'll show you what I mean," the dean said. He turned to the 
basketball player and said, "Tell me,how much is six times 
seven?"

The player thought for several seconds. Then he said, "Thirty- 
one?"

The dean turned to the coach and said, "I rest my case."

"Oh, come on now," the coach said. "Why are you making 
such a big deal of it? After all, he only missed it by one."

Arnold Swartzeneger and Sylvester Stallone are making a
movie about the lives of the great composers. 
Stallone says "I want to be Mozart." 
Swartzeneger says: "In that case... I'll be Bach." 

Friend: Vern, are you going to take your wife Alice on your next cruise?
Vern: Yes, indeed. I just can't leave her behind alone. 

To stop her 4-year old daughter from biting her nails, her mother tells 
her it'll make her fat. “I won't do it any more, Mom," says the daughter. 
Next day they are out walking when they meet a very fat man. “If I bite my 
fingernails, I'll be as fat as that, won't I Mom?" “You'll be fatter than 
that," says her mother. They get on a bus, and sitting opposite them is a 
very pregnant lady. The little girl can't take her eyes off the woman's 
belly. The pregnant lady feels increasingly uncomfortable under this 
stare, and finally leans forward and says to the little girl, “Excuse me, 
but do you know me?" And the little girl says, “No, but I know what you've 
been doing..."

                        How To Give Your Cat a Pill
     
   
1.  Grasp cat firmly in your arms. Cradle its head on your elbows, just as
    if you were giving a baby a bottle. Coo confidently, "That's a nice
    kitty."  Drop pill into its mouth.
2.  Retrieve cat from top of lamp and pill from under sofa.
3.  Follow same procedure as in 1, but hold cat's front paws down with left
    hand and back paws down with elbow of right arm. Poke pill into its
    mouth with right forefinger.
4.  Retrieve cat from under bed. Get new pill from bottle. (Resist impulse
    to get new cat.)
5.  Again proceed as in 1, except when you have cat firmly cradled in
    bottle-feeding position, sit down on edge of chair, fold your torso
    over cat, bring your right hand over your left elbow, open cat's
    mouth by lifting the upper jaw and pop the pill in -- quickly. Since
    your head is down by your knees, you won't be able to see what you're
    doing. That's just as well.
6.  Leave cat hanging on drapes. Leave pill in your hair.
7.  If you're a woman, have a good cry. If you're a man, have a good cry.
8.  Now pull yourself together. Who's the boss here, anyway? Retrieve cat
    and pill. Assuming position 1, say sternly, "Who's the boss here,
    anyway?"  Open cat's mouth, take pill and ... Ooooops!
9.  This isn't working, is it? Collapse and think. Aha! Those flashing
    claws are causing the chaos.
10. Crawl to linen closet. Drag back large beach towel. Spread towel on
    floor.
11. Retrieve cat from kitchen counter and pill from potted plant.
12. Spread cat on towel near one end with its head over long edge.
13. Flatten cat's front and back legs over its stomach. (Resist impulse to
    flatten cat.)
14. Roll cat in towel. Work fast; time and tabbies wait for no man -- or
    woman.
15. Resume position 1. Rotate your left hand to cat's head. Press its mouth
    at the jaw hinges like opening the petals of a snapdragon.
16. Drop pill into cat's mouth and poke gently. Voila! It's done.
17. Vacuum up loose fur (cat's). Apply bandages to wounds (yours).
18. Take two aspirins and lie down.
