NO DICE
By NANCY PADGETT
From the sublime to the ridiculous . . . from holidays to thos(
sorts of things that know no deferrment . . . exams . . . and
very few exemptions. Christmas was one big celebration. Th(
main intention of the studes is to recover from it, and naturally
buckle down to those three hour once overs.
OUCH! . . .
The sultan got sore at his harem,
And invented a scheme for to scare 'em;
He caught him a mouse
Which he loosed in the house,
The confusion was called harem-scarem.
-(Twerp from Pitt-Panther)

1st Moron: "What would happen if I cut off one of youi

2nd Moron: "I'd go deaf."
First: "What would happen if I cut off your other ear?"
