Cold War Thaw (Not a Polish Joke).

Today's gag is based on a Cold War Era joke.

The Prague Circus is playing in Vienna. One of the performers, a little person acrobat, or midget as he would have been called then, has planned an escape to the West. He leaves the guarded hotel at night, climbing down the drain pipe to the street, and hurries away to a house where he has been told that he can hide. He knocks on the door. The door opens a crack, and the little man whispers, "Pardon me, but can you cache a small Czexh?"

Mostly, though, it just improves the profit margin for Mentos.

Nothing beats a sundial.

That would be "report to work" in military terminology.

Just in time.

Time for a nooner.

According to the NIST, 12:00 p.m. is the instant immediately after the clock changes from 11:59:59 to 12:00:00.

"It is fair to say, however, that the shortest measurable duration after noon should be designated as p.m. For example, it would be applicable for a digital clock changing from 11:59:59 a.m. to 12:00:00 to indicate p.m. as soon as it the 12:00 appears, and not delay the display of the p.m. by a minute, or even a second."

Opportunity knocks.

Strangely, it's never a good time to talk about gun control.

Guns have rights, too, because guns are people. Which explains the saying, "Guns don't kill people. People kill people."

Or Ben Casey and Dr. Kildare.

The original gag involved two people in hospital scrubs with stethoscopes and medical bags.

Things in mirror are closer than a pier.



There's something you don't see every day. A walking, talking, pair o' docs.

Who has more friends than the Society of Friends?

Actually, that would be funny to a geek.

Medical humor keeps her in stitches.

Set him up with a straight line, and then knock him down.

Bicycle built for two.

I was going to say something witty about riding side-saddle, but I forget what it was.

Why is Eb talking out of the side of his face?

Oh, I remember. That's why it's called a bi-cycle!

All sweetness and light.

Didn't we just have Sarcasm Day?
