- place?

-
- If you collect the chronically stupefied and encourage them toward collective
- bewilderment, and then ask them to formulate a statement, you have the basic
- elements of a very productive committee.
-
- By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail and the more of it you do,
- the better your chances are. On the other hand, if you don't, you won't,
- and it will be successful. (I just wish I know what the hell I was talking
- about here!)
-
- Vice President Dan Quayle says he loves to travel to Africa and wants to

-
- The one most important rule for writers is to be sure to reread anything they
- have written to be sure that they have not by accident a word out.
-
- If you feel bad because you feel good and know that you will feel worse if
- you feel better, you are fairly well sure you are a hypochondriac. If you
- feel good because you feel bad and know you will feel better if you feel
- worse, you are a cairdnohcopyh, because you are doing things backwards.

- The Committee for the Reduction of Redundancy and the Antiproliferation of
- Repetition has decided not to meet until they have their first meeting and
- thus will not be meeting until the first time. Their Premeeting Statement
- wanted to make this clear before they had their first meeting, so that it
- would not be uncertain or confusing. So their first meeting will actually be
- their first meeting and they will not have a meeting before the first meeting.
- This should avoid having people show up for their first meeting before it is
- held, since to do so would be confusing to those who did so and this is what
- they want to avoid by reducing the confusion and lessening the repetition.
- This sounds like a perfect forum for yet another speech by Vice President

- Previously Unwritten Rule Department: That road which is the sole road which
- leads to the greatest tourist attraction in the area can only be repaired
- during the busiest three weeks of the entire tourist season. Repairs are to
- be done in such a manner that the maximum amount of time is required to cover
- the minimum amount of distance. Slow moving vehicles shall be deployed to
- best advantage to slow traffic in both directions simultaneously at all points
- of repair. A minimum of one person per repair mile shall be employed to
- engage in sun-bath work and no other. Two others, by the same ratio, shall
- be employed to watch for anyone riding on square wheels, which shall be duly
- reported at the end of the month to the contractor. On days which precede and
- follow national holidays, at least two vehicles shall be used to break down,
- so that traffic comes to a complete standstill for as long as possible.
-
- Ok Ok already, Dan Quayle knows he made a mistake. He knows, now at least,
- that the Amazon River isn't in Africa. So he is not going there anyway. He
- has changed plans. He is going to South America and view the Nile. He wants
- the people of South America to know how interested in them he really is, and
- he is sure he will enjoy visiting Nepal...
