"You've got a broken finger!" /b From: ssatchell@bix.com Subject: This one has been going around Bumper sticker in Arkansas: "If you can read this, you ain't from around here." (Heard in a bar -- which means it's going around *fast*) /b From: djc@cc.umanitoba.ca (D. Joseph Creighton) Subject: American Independence [Heard on a local radio station (QX104 FM in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada)] Just as we celebrated Canada Day this past July 1st, Americans are now celebrating their independence from the British today.

A coworker heard this, and responded: When the only tool you have is a gun, every problem tends to look like the B.A.T.F.

[Apparently PSA crew were known for humor -- as I recall "catch our smile" was their motto, and the planes had big smiley faces painted on them. When they got merged into another airline, the policy was terminated.] /b From: DBOG1@aol.com Subject: Inferiority Complex Saw this quote on alt.quotations and thought I'd pass it on.
