I
bought a bit of baking powder and baked a batch of biscuits.
I brought a big basket of biscuits back to the bakery and
baked a basket of big biscuits.
Then I took the big basket of biscuits and the basket of big
biscuits and mixed the big biscuits with the basket of biscuits
that was next to the big basket and put a bunch of biscuits
from the basket into a biscuit mixer and brought the basket
of biscuits and the box of mixed biscuits and the biscuit
mixer to the bakery and opened a tin of sardines.
So
she bought a bit of butter,
better than her bitter butter,
and she baked it in her batter,
and the batter was not bitter.
So 'twas better Betty Botter
bought a bit of better butter.
Sister
Suzie sewing shirts for soldiers
Such skill as sewing shirts
Our shy young sister Suzie shows
Some soldiers send epistles
Say they'd rather sleep in thistles
Than the saucy, soft short shirts for soldiers Sister Suzie
sews.
There
once was a man who had a sister, his name was Mr. Fister.
Mr. Fister's sister sold sea shells by the sea shore.
Mr. Fister didn't sell sea shells, he sold silk sheets.
Mr. Fister told his sister that he sold six silk sheets to
six shieks.
The sister of Mr. Fister said I sold six shells to six shieks
too!
She
sells sea shells on the sea shore;
The shells that she sells are sea shells I'm sure.
So if she sells sea shells on the sea shore,
I'm sure that the shells are sea shore shells.
Sally
is a sheet slitter, she slits sheets.
Sally sells sea shells by the sea shore.
But if Sally sells sea shells by the sea shore then where
are the sea shells Sally sells?
She stood by Burgess's fish sauce shop welcoming him in.
There are two minutes difference from four to two to two to
two, from two to two to two, too.
Betty
bought some butter,
but the butter Betty bought was bitter,
so Betty bought some better butter,
and the better butter Betty bought
was better than the bitter butter Betty bought before!
Ed
Nott was shot and Sam Shott was not.
So it is better to be Shott than Nott.
Some say Nott was not shot.
But Shott says he shot Nott.
Either the shot Shott shot at Nott was not shot, or Nott was
shot.
If the shot Shott shot shot Nott, Nott was shot.
But if the shot Shott shot shot Shott, the shot was Shott,
not Nott.
However, the shot Shott shot shot not Shott - but Nott.
So, Ed Nott was shot and that's hot! Is it not?
Theophilus
Thadeus Thistledown, the succesful thistle-sifter, while sifting
a sieve-full of unsifted thistles, thrust three thousand thistles
through the thick of his thumb.
Now, if Theophilus Thadeus Thistledown, the succesful thistle-sifter,
thrust three thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb,
see that thou, while sifting a sieve-full of unsifted thistles,
thrust not three thousand thistles through the thick of thy
thumb.
Esau
Wood sawed wood.
All the wood Esau Wood saw, Esau Wood would saw.
All the wood Wood saw, Esau sought to saw.
One day Esau Wood's wood-saw would saw no wood.
So Esau Wood sought a new wood-saw.
The new wood-saw would saw wood.
Oh, the wood Esau Wood would saw.
Esau sought a saw that would saw wood as no other wood-saw
would saw.
And Esau found a saw that would saw as no other wood-saw would
saw. And Esau Wood sawed wood.

Every
Idiot Deserves a Sign
Idiot
# 1
I am a
medical student currently doing a rotation in toxicology at
the poison control center. Today, this woman called in very
upset because she caught her little daughter eating ants.
I quickly reassured her that the ants are not harmful and
there would be no need to bring her daughter into the hospital.
She calmed down, and at the end of the conversation she happened
to mention that she gave her daughter some ant poison to eat
in order to kill the ants. I told her that she better bring
her daughter into the Emergency room right away.
Here's
your sign lady. Wear it with pride.

A true
story out of San Francisco: A man, wanting to rob a downtown
Bank of America, walked into the branch and wrote "this
is a stikkup. Put all your muny in this bag." While standing
in line, waiting to give his note to the teller, he began
to worry that someone had seen him write the note and might
call the police before he reached the teller window. So he
left the Bank of America and crossed the street to Wells Fargo.
After waiting a few minutes in line, he handed his note to
the Wells Fargo teller. He read it and, surmising from his
spelling errors that he wasn't the brightest light in the
harbor, told him that he could not accept his stickup note
because it was written on a Bank of America deposit slip and
that he would either have to fill out a Wells Fargo deposit
slip or go back to Bank of America. Looking somewhat defeated,
the man said, "OK" and left. He was arrested a few
minutes later, as he was waiting in line back at Bank of America.
Don't
bother with this guy's sign. He probably couldn't read it
anyway.

A motorist
was unknowingly caught in an automated speed trap that measured
his speed using radar and photographed his car. He later received
in the mail a ticket for $40 and a photo of his car. Instead
of payment, he sent the police department a photograph of
$40. Several days later, he
received a letter from the police that contained another picture,
this time of handcuffs. He immediately mailed in his $40.
Another
sign (though this guy might be onto something)
Idiot
#4
Guy walked
into a little corner store with a shotgun and demanded all
the cash from the cash drawer. After the cashier put the cash
in a bag, the robber saw a bottle of scotch that he wanted
behind the counter on the shelf. He told the cashier to put
it in the bag as well, but he refused and said, "Because
I don't believe you are over 21." The robber said he
was, but the clerk still refused to give it to him because
he didn't believe him. At this point the robber took his driver's
license out of his wallet and gave it to the clerk. The clerk
looked it over, and agreed that the man was in fact over 21
and he put the scotch in the bag. The robber then ran from
the store with his loot. The cashier promptly called the police
and gave the name and address of the robber that he got off
the license. They arrested the robber two hours later.
(Remind
me to have more signs printed up. Give this guy his!)
Idiot
#5
Arkansas:
Seems this guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He decided that
he'd just throw a cinder block through a liquor store window,
grab some booze, and run. So he lifted the cinder block and
heaved it over his head at the window. The cinder block bounced
back and hit the would-be thief on he head, knocking him unconscious.
Seems the liquor store window was made of Plexi-Glass. The
whole event was caught on videotape.
(Oh, I'll
bet that hurt. Give him his sign!)
Idiot
#6
Ann Arbor:
The Ann Arbor News crime column reported that a man walked
into a Burger King in Ypsilanti, Michigan at 12:50 am flashed
a gun and demanded cash. The clerk turned him down because
he said he couldn't open the cash register without a food
order. When the man ordered onion rings, the clerk said they
weren't available for breakfast. The man, frustrated, walked
away.
(Your
sign will be up in a minute, sir.)
