Tickled pink...

A bit busy today, so for those of you with time to spare, marvel at a wonder that would have intrigued Barnes Wallis himself - the bouncing bum. Seems to satisfy the inner child in me... (Warning - not work safe...)

Also a joke that seems to sum up my life - permanently trying to pick up bricks that I've dropped (or my partners at work have dropped).

A man walked into the produce section of his local supermarket and asks to buy half a head of lettuce. The young lad working in that department told him that they only sold whole heads of lettuce. The man was insistent that the lad ask his manager about the matter.
Walking into the back room, the lad said to his manager, "Some wanker wants to buy a half a head of lettuce." As he finished his sentence, he turned to find the man standing right behind him, so he added, "and this gentleman kindly offered to buy the other half."
The manager approved the deal and the man went on his way. Later the manager found the boy and said "I was impressed with the way you got yourself out of that
situation earlier. We like people who think on their feet here. Where are you from, son?"
"Essex, sir," the lad replied.
"Well, why did you leave Essex," the manager asked.
The lad said, "Sir, there's nothing but whores and football players there."
"Really?" said the manager, "My wife's from Essex."
The boy replied, "No shit! Who does she play for?"

Gotta love those Essex girl jokes. I've got a link on My Favourites list to a good site. Know any more?
