Don’t judge by appearances

This is NOT a true story, but it’s a good read. . .A lady in a faded gingham dress and her husband, dressed in a homespun threadbare suit, stepped off the train in Boston, and walked timidly without an appointment into the Harvard University President’s outer office. The Secretary could tell in a moment that such backwoods, country hicks had no business at Harvard and probably didn’t deserve to be in Cambridge. She frowned. ”We want to see the President,” the man said softly.”He’ll be busy all day,” the secretary snapped.”We’ll wait,” the lady replied.For hours, the Secretary ignored them, hoping that the couple would finally become discouraged and go away. They didn’t: and the Secretary grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the President, even though it was a chore she always regretted. ”Maybe if they just see you for a few minutes, they’ll leave,” she told him. He sighed in exasperation and nodded. Someone of his importance obviously didn’t have the time to spend with them, but he detested gingham dresses and homespun suits cluttering up his outer office.The President, stern-faced with dignity, strutted toward the couple. The lady told him, ”We had a son who attended Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was happy here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed and my husband and I would like to erect a memorial to him, somewhere on campus.”The President wasn’t touched, he was shocked. ”Madam,” he said gruffly. ”We can’t put up a statue for every person who attended Harvard and died. If we did, this place would look like a cemetery’.”Oh, no,” the lady explained quickly. ”We thought we would like to give a building to Harvard.”The president rolled his eyes. He glanced at the gingham dress and homespun suit, then exclaimed, ”A building! Do you have any earthly idea how much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars in the physical plant at Harvard.”For a moment the lady was silent. The president was pleased. He could get rid of them now. And the lady turned to her husband and said quietly, ”Is that all it costs to start a University? Why don’t we just start our own?” Her husband nodded..The President’s face wilted in confusion and bewilderment.Mr.and Mrs. Leland Stanford walked away, traveling to Palo Alto, California, where they established the university that bears their name, a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer cared about.

3 Trained Dogs

There is a guy who has a dog that doesn’t obey him. Then he sees
an ad in the paper for a great dog trainer. So, he decides to go
to the dog trainer and get his dog trained.

The guy walks in the room and asks, “Can you train my dog, and
are you a good trainer?” The trainer replies, “Well, I can train
your dog, and I will give you a demonstration of how good I am.”

He dumped a box full of bones on the floor and blew a whistle.
The first dog came in and made a skeleton with the bones. “Wow!”
said the guy, “What kind of dog is that?” “That’s a nurse’s
dog,” said the trainer.

Then he blows the whistle again and a second dog comes in the
room. That dog makes a big building. The man says, “Wow! What
kind of dog is that?” “That’s an architect’s dog,” replies the
trainer.

Then the trainer blows the whistle again and a third dog comes
in. That dog takes the bones, screws the other two dogs and runs
away. “Wow! What kind of dog is that?” says the man. “That’s a
lawyer’s dog!”

The Blonde Kidnapper

Once upon a time when a Blonde was hard up for money, she decided to kidnap a child. So the next day she goes to a nearby playground and when nobody is looking, she pulls a random kid behind a tree and says, “You’re kidnapped, so be quiet and don’t give me any trouble.” The little boy, too startled to do anything stands there in shock. The Blonde then pulls out a note that reads:

I am a desperate Blonde hard up for money. I have kidnapped your kid and if you ever want to see him again you arrange for 5,000 dollars in non-sequencial, unmarked bills to be put next to this tree by 12:00 tonight, or else.

She hands the note to the kid and tells him to give it to his mother. The next day the Blonde finds the bag of money next to the tree. Inside the bag is a little note that reads:

Here is the money. How could you do this to a fellow Blonde?

Instructions Explained

Upon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife. Tearfully she explained, “It’s the druggist. He insulted me terribly this morning on the phone.” Immediately the husband drove downtown to confront the druggist and demand an apology.

Before he could say more than a word or two, the druggist told him, “Now, just a minute, listen to my side of it. This morning the alarm failed to go off, so I was late getting up.

I went without breakfast and hurried out to the car, just to realize that I locked the house with both house and car keys inside. I had to break a window to get my keys. Then, driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket.

Later, when I was about three blocks from the store, I had a flat tire. When I finally got to the store there was a bunch of people waiting for me to open up. I got the store opened and started waiting on these people, and all the time the darn phone was ringing off the hook.”

He continued, “Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor. I got down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels; the phone was still ringing.

When I came up I cracked my head on the open cash drawer, which made me stagger back against a showcase with a bunch of perfume bottles on it…half of them hit the floor and broke. Meanwhile, the phone is still ringing with no let up, and I finally got back to answer it.

It was your wife. She wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer…and believe me, Mister, I told her!”

Prison Trouble

“Now then,” said the warden addressing the three instigators of a failed prison riot. “I would like to know two things. First, why did you revolt? And second, how did you get out of your cells?”

One of the three prisoners, Roy, stepped forward and said, “Warden, we revolted because the food here is awful.”

“I see,” says the Warden. “And the cell? What did you use to break the bars?”

Prisoner Roy replied, “Toast.”

If you thought the rooms were small…

On the subject of small lodgins in Tokyo comes the small pets…For 400 yen, Japanese pedestrians can now buy a pair of live, three-inch Kabutomushi (horned beetles) from a vending machine. The four machines in central Japan, previously used for selling fresh vegetables, sell out each day, according to Japanese newspapers, with people travelling over 100 miles to make a purchase. Raising beetles as pets has a long tradition in Japan. Last August, a 36-year-old Japanese company president paid a record 10 million yen (nearly $100,000) for a giant stag beetle
