The local Burger King was running a promotion. If you told them "It just
tastes better." when ordering they would give you an extra Whopper for 
your trouble.

So I ordered the combo meal and told the girl I wanted the extra Whopper 
with that. So she told me I'd have to say the phrase to get the free 
burger.

"You're kidding.", I said.  "No, sir, go ahead and say it." she laughed.  
"Come on...." I said, hesitating.  Did I really have to mouth an 
advertising slogan to this cute little thing half my age?

We were both laughing by now.  I figured she was serious about it.  So I 
blurted out "You just taste better!"  into the speaker.  All of a sudden 
the speaker lit up with the laughter of the staff, as she managed to choke 
out, "Please drive through sir!".  :-)

Prof. Lachner once taught a class from 2:30pm to 5:30pm. Every time the
class met, all the students would have a lot of food on their desks when
the class started. During the 5 minutes break, all of them would line a
queue at the nearby vending machine. He couldn't understand why these
students were hungry all the time, anyway, his class was just after the
lunch time and long before dinner time. Prof. Somebody was not happy about
this because when they ate, they make a lot of noise. So he announced one
day "No food in the class". Next class he found the classroom extremely
quiet. Guess what, everybody was dozing because nothing was keeping them
awake.

Now let's see here if I understand all this correctly.  

President Clinton has ordered our forces to engage an entrenched,
politically motivated enemy, backed by the Russians, on their home
ground, in a foreign civil war, in difficult terrain, with limited
military objectives, bombing restrictions, boundary and operational
restrictions, queasy allies, far across the ocean, with uncertain
goals, without prior consultation with congress, the potential for
escalation, while limiting the forces at his disposal, and the
majority of Americans opposed to or at least uncertain about the
value of the action being worth American lives.

So just what was it that he was opposed to in Vietnam?
