"Lexophile"
is a word used to describe those that have a love for words, such as "you
can tune a piano, but you can't tuna fish", or "to write with a
broken pencil is pointless." A competition to see who can come up with the
best lexophiles is held every year in an undisclosed location.
.. When fish are in schools, they sometimes take debate.
.. A
thief who stole a calendar got twelve months.
.. When
the smog lifts in Los Angeles U.C.L.A.
.. The
batteries were given out free of charge.
.. A
dentist and a manicurist married. They fought tooth and nail.
.. A will
is a dead giveaway.
.. With
her marriage, she got a new name and a dress.
.. A
boiled egg is hard to beat.
.. When
you've seen one shopping center, you've seen a mall.
.. Police
were called to a day care center where a three-year-old was resisting a rest.
.. Did
you hear about the fellow whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right
now.
.. A
bicycle can't stand alone; it is two tired.
.. When a
clock is hungry it goes back four seconds.
.. The
guy who fell onto an upholstery machine is now fully recovered.
.. He had
a photographic memory which was never developed.
.. When
she saw her first strands of grey hair she thought she'd dye.
..
Acupuncture is a jab well done. That's the point of it.
..Then
there was the tragic story about the optician who fell into his lens
grinder and made a spectacle of himself.
And the cream of the wretched crop:
.. Those
who get too big for their britches will be exposed in the end.
