Thought For the Day: Chinese saying, "When someone share with you something of value, you have an obligation to share it with others."

Birthing Spa

My pregnant daughter and her husband were checking out a new birth facility that was more like a spa. The birthing room had a hot tub, soft music and candlelight. "What do you think?" she said.

He looked around. "Isn't this how we got here in the first place?"

Transcribing Confusion

We were thoroughly confused. While transcribing medical audiotapes, my co-worker came upon the following garbled diagnosis: "This man has pholenfrometry."

Knowing nothing about that particular condition, she double-checked with Doctor Mike Wilson. After listening to the tape, he shook his head.

"This man," he said, translating for her, "has fallen from a tree."

Giuseppe Spomdalucc

To impress his date, the young man took her to a very chick Italian restaurant. After sipping some fine wine, he picked up the menu and ordered. "We'll have the Giuseppe Spomdalucci," he said.

"Sorry, sir," said the waiter. "That's the owner."

A Scene You Will Probably Never Get To See

This is the sunset at the North Pole with the moon at its closest poin. you also see the sun below the moon. An amazing photo and not one easily duplicated.
