Top Ten...
...SIGNS YOU MIGHT NOT BE READING YOUR BIBLE ENOUGH
The Preacher announces the sermon is from Galatians. . .
and you check the table of contents.
You think Abraham, Isaac & Jacob may have had a few hit songs during
the 60's.
You open to the Gospel of Luke and a WWII Savings Bond falls out.
Your favorite Old Testament Patriarch is Hercules.
A small family of woodchucks has taken up residence in the Psalms
of your Bible.
You become frustrated because Charlton Heston isn't listed in either
the Concordance or the Table of Contents.
Catching the kids reading the Song of Solomon, you demand: "Who gave
you this stuff?"
You think the Minor Prophets worked in the quarries.
You keep falling for it every time when Pastor tells you to turn to
First Condominiums.
The kids keep asking too many questions about your usual bedtime
story: "Jonah, the Shepherd Boy, and His Ark of Many Colors."

Re: Top Ten...
Our TOP TEN Murphy's Laws of Computing
10. When computing, whatever happens, behave as though you meant it to happen.
9. When you get to the point where you really understand your computer, it's probably obsolete.
8. The first place to look for information is in the section of the manual where you'd least expect to find it.
7. When the going gets tough, upgrade.
6. For every action, there is an equal and opposite malfunction.
5. To err is human...to blame your computer for your mistakes is even more human, its downright natural.
4. He who laughs last, probably has a back-up.
3. The number one cause of computer problems is computer solutions.
2. . A complex system that won't work is invariably found to have come from a simpler system that worked just fine.
And the #1 Murphy's Law of Computing is...
1. A computer program will always do what you tell it to do, but rarely what you want it to do.

Things you don't want to hear during surgery:
Better save that. We'll need it for the autopsy.
"Accept this sacrifice, O Great Lord of Darkness."
Bo! Bo! Come back with that. Bad dog!
Wait a minute, if this is his spleen, then what's that?

Oh no! Where's my Rolex?
Oops! Hey, has anyone ever survived from 500 ml of this stuff before?

Well folks, this will be an experiment for all of us.
Sterile schmerile. The floor's clean, right?
OK, now take a picture from this angle. This is truly a freak of nature.
This patient has already had some kids, am I correct?
Nurse, did this patient sign an organ donation card?
