    Hearing the #@^%*&%@*&## My wife asks (Did you hit your thumb?)

    She actually asked me that with a hammer in my hand.
    To be fair, there are any number of things you could've smashed with a hammer.

    I think most folks in out part of the country think golf started at Fairfield Bay. Speaking of which why do they call it a "Bay" when it's landlocked in Arkansas???

    I got off work at the hospital the other day, and went over to the bookstore. I was still dressed in my scrubs, and had my stethoscope hanging around my neck. I was wearing my hospital picture badge on a lanyard around my neck. Guy stops me as I'm walking to the desk to pick up my special order, and asks, "Do you work here?"

    D'oh!

    My favorite question to be asked, while kilted, is: "Are you Irish?"


    ...I feel a little more sad, every time I hear that one.

    Not too strange I was at the Hospital yesterday in my Black Watch HW SWK and a man walks up to me and asked if I was Welsh? I replied Edwards. He shakes my hand and thanks me for wearing a Cilt. He said he had just last year come over from Wales and I told him it was a Black Watch and he said he thought it was but I looked like some one he knew in Wales.

    Arg... that's a debacle that doesn't happen every day (thank goodness)! Sounds like another victim of one of these scams: http://blog.albanach.org/2005/04/welsh-tartans.html
