  • Question – What’s the difference between a Chinese bio-researcher saying “I wonder if we can…” and an American redneck yelling out “Hey, y’all! Watch this!”?
    • Answer – NHS funding
  • Had a couple of flights yesterday. On my first leg, there were two mothers with toddlers
    • One was sharing her double-caff, extra syrup, no foam mocha thingamajig with her two-year-old, then gave him her iPad.
    • The other already had the tyke in his pajamas, was giving him a high-carb snack just before boarding, and read The Cat in the Hat to him as we taxied.
    • Guess which child made me stare longingly at the emergency exits for a couple of hours and which fell asleep right after we took off.
  • I was worried about Iran and Pakistan exchanging missile strikes until someone mentioned that they were helping each other scratch fleas.
    • Hey, you got high explosives on my terrorists! Just for that, I’ll get high explosives on your terrorists!
  • It’s probably a coincidence that the protests have tapered off since winter finally made its appearance. I wonder what the mob will be outraged about come springtime?
