It was HEAVY! It was BULKY! It was BULGING and BULLLLLBOUS! And it wouldn't stop until it had claimed the earth for its own! Some people take wine to seriously. If that's not a joke, here's one: A man from Saudi Arabia was visiting America. One of the first things he did was to visit an American amusement park. Once there, he immediately jumped on the merry-go-round. Unfortunately, he was not used to it, and fell off in a swoon. Unbeknownst to him, a pack of 3 killer sheep was nearby, and he was promptly eaten up by the 2nd of them. A passerby was heard to comment: "Middle lamb, you've had a dizzy Bey." --- "Something very much like nothing anyone had seen before came trotting down the stairs and crossed the room." - The 13 Clocks --------------------------------------------------------------- ---> Tim Bessie ----- {ucbvax,dual}!unisoft!tim ---> Unisoft Systems; 739 Allston Way; Berkeley, CA 94710 ---> (415) 644-1230 TWX II 910 366-2145
