"He wanted to transcend dental medication."When I read in the news that a man had jumped off a bridge in Paris, I thought:
"That man's in Seine."What's with all those chicken-crossing-the-road jokes anyway?
"If you ask me, it's poultry in motion."Show me a piano falling down a mine shaft, and I'll show you:
Evidence has been found that legendary archer William Tell and his family were avid bowlers. However, all the league records were destroyed in a fire. Thus, to this day we'll never now"A-flat minor"
"For whom the Tells bowled. "
