Definition of Tragedy

The President was visiting a grade school the other day and sat in on an English class. To participate in the class, he asked for someone to give him an example of a tragedy. A little girl named Peggy held up her hand timidly and said, ‘If my friend was walking across the street and a car ran over her… well, that would be a tragedy!’ ‘Well, thank you for trying,’ The Prez said. ‘That would be what we would call an accident, but not a tragedy. Can anybody else give me an example?’A little boy named Timmy said, ‘If the school bus was full of kids and a truck hit it and killed all the kids that would be a tragedy.”Well, that would be what we call a great loss, but it doesn’t quite make the tragic category,’ the President replied. About his time little Johnny held up his hand. ‘Oh. Oh. I know, I know…’ Johnny started. ‘If you and the Vice President and all the senators and all the congressmen were having a meeting, and a bomb blew everybody up that would be a tragedy.’ ‘That’s right!’ the President exclaimed. ‘How did you figure that out?’ ‘Well,’ said Johnny, ‘it wouldn’t be an accident and it darn sure wouldn’t be a great loss!’

Related sale

“The Related Sale” was the subject of a pep talk given recently
by the manager of a certain super-drug store.

“For instance, if a customer wants razor blades,” he told
employees, “ask him how he’s fixed for shaving cream and
after-shave lotion. That way you can turn a small sale into a
bigger one and make more commission.”

The youngest clerk was very impressed with the talk and was
eager to try the technique on his very next customer. This
turned out to be a rather embarrassed gentleman who shyly
requested a box of Kotex for his wife.

Ten minutes later, the manager of the store was amazed to see
The customer staggering out loaded down with assorted fishing
equipment, tackle, nets, boots and a one-man inflatable life
raft.

“What happened?!” The manager gasped, and the clerk modestly
attributed his success to “The Related Sale.”

“Related Sale!” Exclaimed the manager. “But all he wanted was a
box of Kotex.”

“I know,” said the clerk. “So I said, ‘Look, mister, there isn’t
going to be much doing around your house this weekend. Why don’t
you take a fishing trip?'”

I can telepathically ask this watch anything I want to know, and it’ll answer me, telepathically.� �Rubbish, you’re having me on,� says the girl. �No, it’s true,� says that guy. �Look, tell you what, I’ll prove it. I’ll ask it if you’ve got any panties on.� The guy scrunches up his eyes for a moment, as if concentrating hard to talk to his watch, then opens them and says, �Nope, it says you haven’t got any panties on.� �Well, it’s wrong,� says the girl, �I do have panties on.� �Damn,� says the guy, slapping his watch, �it’s an hour fast!�
