From Denny: Life sure can take some strange twists and turns. Lately, there was an Australian teenage girl who attempted to sail around the world. While I had no doubt as to her excellent sailing ability I was apprehensive about the pirates out in the oceans. Huge well established shipping lines have difficulties handling pirates. How well could a single girl do in such a situation? The fact that she could have landed in some third world country jail was not a pleasant thought. Her parents should have had at least a second ship trailing her in case of distress. In short, she was just plain lucky to get rescued in time.
Then there is the screw-up with 211 graves at Arlington Cemetery. "We don't know where we buried your husband, ma'am, uh, sorry 'bout that. We'll try harder next time." They are MIA: Missing In Arlington, misplaced, and mislabeled.
My two favorites? The one where White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel scares BP into doing what's right by standing in front of them naked. Yeah, that ought to do it. The other is the old couple having a conversation about what the old guy wants for his 40th anniversary. The old lady has a great quip. Ah, lovers and soul mates...
