Frequently, I get a strip of coupons or other promotional
items from a little printer at the checkout of my local grocery.

Coupons emerge as a thank-you for purchasing a product, or
based on some other derived data.

Yesterday, after buying a couple pints of Ben & Jerry's
Ice Cream (my favorite bad-for-me snack food), I got the
following checkout coupons in sequence:

While my wife and I were shopping at a mall kiosk, a shapely young
woman in a short, form-fitting dress strolled by. My eyes followed.
Without looking up from the item she was examining, my wife asked,
"Was it worth the trouble you're in?" 

Mouth Cells



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 :)
