A woman was filling out an accident report. She had dented a parked car while trying to park her own. One question on the report was, "What could the operator of the other vehicle have done to avoid the accident?" She wrote, "He could have parked it somewhere else."
QUESTION How many feet do mice have?
Original reply Mice have four feet.
Management comment Elaborate!
Revision 1 Mice have five appendages, and four of them are feet.
Comment No discussion of fifth appendage!
Revision 2 Mice have five appendages; four of them are feet and one is a tail.
Comment What? Feet with no legs?
Revision 3 Mice have four legs, four feet and one tail per unit-mouse.
Comment Confusing, is that a total of 9 appendages?
Revision 4 Mice have four leg-foot assemblies & one tail assembly per body.
Comment Does not fully discuss the issue!
Revision 5 Each mouse comes equipped with four legs and a tail. Each leg is equipped with a foot at the end opposite the body; the tail is not equipped with a foot.
Comment Too authoritative; stifles creativity!
Revision 7 Mice have four feet; each foot is attached to a small leg joined in-tegrally with the overall mouse structural sub-system. Also attached to the mouse sub-system is a thin tail, non-functional and ornamental in nature.
Comment Too verbose/scientific. Answer the question!
FINAL REVISION APPROVED BY MANAGEMENT Mice have four feet.
A preacher dies, and when he gets to Heaven, he sees a New York cab driv-er who has more crowns. He says to an angel, "I don't get it. I devoted my whole life to my congregation."
The angel says, "We reward results. Did your congregation always pay at-tention when you gave a sermon?"
The preacher says, "Once in a while someone fell asleep." The angel says, "Right. And when people rode in this guy's taxi, they not only stayed awake, but they usually prayed!"
