Next Waiting Room
Popular Restaurant -
Near UNC
.
When my husband and I showed up at a very popular Chapel
Hill* restaurant, it was crowded. I went up to the hostess and
asked, "Will it be long?"
The hostess, ignoring me, kept writing in her book. I asked
again, "How much of a wait?"
The woman looked up and said, "About ten minutes."
A short time later, we heard an announcement over the loud-
speaker: "Willette B. Long, your table is ready."

New Hearing Aide -
Developed At UNC

"Hey Benny," said Lou, "I just bought me
a brand new hearing aide. It cost me $4,000,
but it's state of the art."
"That right?" answered Ben. "What kind is it?"
"One-thirty-seven."

Who You Are & Why You're There
.
As a general rule, I don't do hospitals. Oh, I visit other
people in hospitals, but I don't stay in them. God has
blessed me with wonderful health over the years. But
there was the time I had such an intense bout with the
flu that I ended up badly dehydrated.
The doctor was concerned enough about me that he put
me in the hospital for a short time, actually, to get me re-
hydrated with intravenous fluids. Now I've got to tell you,
I was not a happy camper when they told me they were
going to admit me to the hospital.
Oh, I was nice on the outside, but inside I was going "Rrrrrr."
That was until my sister-in-law reminded me of something
that she said I had told her once or twice. (I hate it when my
own words come back to haunt me.) She said, "Remember
who you are and remember why you're here."

Wednesday
UNC Medical Rounds
.
Making rounds one morning, a doctor points out
an X-ray to a group of UNC medical students.
"As you can see," he says, "the patient limps because
his left fibula and tibia are radically arched.
Bernie, what would you do in a case like this?"

Don't Sit Up Straight
.
The longstanding advice to "sit up straight"
has been turned on its head by a new study
that suggests leaning back is a much better
posture (but you'd still better listen to your
Mom)...

Coffee With Jill
.
Linda and Jill are having coffee when Linda notices
that Jill seems troubled and asks her, "Is something
bugging you? You look anxious."
"Well, my boyfriend just lost all his money and life
savings in the stock market," Jill explained.
"Oh, that's too bad," Linda sympathized. "I'm sure
you're feeling sorry for him."
"Yeah, I am," Jill said. "He'll miss me."

Wednesday's Riddles
.
1) My host thinks I'm an irritation, a bother, a pain.
But he can't evict me, so here I will remain. Then
one day I'm taken and ranked among my peers.
Can you guess just what I am? Then you might
call me dear.
2) I start with the letter e,
I end with the letter e.
I contain only one letter,
Yet I am not the letter e!
What am I?
3) Here is a quotation with all the spaces and vowels removed.
What is the quotation?
TRRSHMNTFRGVDVN
4) High above the lowly earth,
and yet I flourish for all I'm worth.
I hang between the earth and sky,
green or brown as the seasons pass by.
As around me all the birds do fly,
and just before winter, away go I.
Tell me true,
What Am I?
5) These fictitious names are all rearrangements of the names
of famous people. For example, if Sheila O'Norton were on
the list, you would discover that this is really Horatio
Nelson in disguise. See if you can discover who everyone
really is.
A) Frank Cardise
B) Fred Colatis
C) Alfie Dondee
D) Fidel Haltor
E) Jon Hasket
F) Fred Hyron
G) Mark Larx
H) Helmut Tarrin
I) June Seatan
6) Caesar and Brutus are playing a game in which each says the
next number from a well-known sequence. The first 20 terms
of the sequence are given below:
1 2 3 2 1 2 3 4 2 1 2 3 4 3 2 3 4 5 3 2
The fortieth term is 2. If Caesar began the game, who will
be the first to say 10?

Movie: The Nativity Story
.
Christians have long known that it is more important
to be “correct” than “politically correct.” Christmas is
about Christ, and that is “correct,” accurate and true
to history and tradition. Santa Claus, reindeer, wreaths,
Christmas trees are fine, but what it is all about is the
birth of the Messiah. Christmas heralds the turning
point in history...

The Transporter To Tomorrow
.
"To boldly go where no man has gone before."
Recognize that famous line? Then somewhere
along the way, you've been exposed to that
cultural phenomenon known as Star Trek.
They had this invention on the Enterprise,
you remember, it's called a transporter -
as in "Scotty, beam me up!" Well, the
transporter sort of rearranges your
molecules and beams you to another
location almost immediately. But
sometimes the crew would get beamed
down to some unknown planet, only to
be greeted by this horrific space creature...

Dancing Around Oneness
.
During my first year in college I was convinced that a beginning ballet
class was just what I needed to lighten a heavy course load. Nothing was
less like calculus and chemistry than ballet. Little did I know, however,
that my ballet professor would embody a militant will to snap "easy-A"
seeking students in two with the Herculean strength of her well-trained
legs. "Find your Sit-Bones!" she repeatedly thundered, pacing through
even rows of frightened freshmen. MORE!!!

the road behind them.
"Yeah, looks like it"

Dinner Palaver

A mother and father were chatting with their high school
son about his future. The student said he'd like to attend
UNC*, as his parents and other members of the family had.
Pleased with his response, they pressed on. "What would
you like to take when you attend college?" they asked the
high school student
After giving it some thought and glancing around the kitchen,
he replied, "The refrigerator, if you can get along without it."
