- Now that everyone understands the reference to Broca's brain and
- the humor still isn't evident, perhaps we could quit beating that dead
- horse and consider the possibility that the humor resides in the baseball
- glove and its ties to the other two.

- My personal favorite is a room full of dead cats. There is a chalk board
- filled with formulas and symbols, a table of test tubes and beakers, and
- a detective dog talking to a police dog. "What killed these cats was
- curiosity."
