Some Facts I KNOW You Want To Know :P
Toilet Seat
It isn't widely known, but the first toilet seat was invented by a Polish scientist in the 18th century. The invention was later modified by a Jewish inventor who put a hole in the seat.
Ten Commandments
The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a Courthouse! You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians! It creates a hostile work environment.
Zero Gravity
When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ball-point pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat this problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion developing a pen that writes in zerogravity, upside-down, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to over 300 C. The Russians used a pencil. Your taxes are due again--enjoy paying them.
Government Emblem
The government today announced that it is changing its emblem from an Eagle to a condom because it more accurately reflects the government's political stance. A condom stands up to inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of weenies and gives you a sense of security while you're actually being screwed. Damm, it just doesn't get more accurate than that.
Our Constitution
"They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked for over 200 years and hell, we're not using it anymore." Not in all cases absolutely true but in spirit it is.

I love it! Started reading this and thought about the toilet seat and well...around here...Polish jokes used abound as much as Aggie jokes did in the panhandle of Texas in the1980s. Have heard more blonde jokes lately (gee, don't understand why, lol) but Polish jokes were the thing. Guess they have to have someone to pick on.
Anyway, loved all of them (especially the one about changing the eagle to a condom, lol. They brought a smile to this tired face. Thanks for taking the time to post them.

Glad you like MS GAIL - I was sort of debating whether to post BECAUSE of the Polish innuendo - but I say hey - fair game
