[senco-forum] A pinched funnie for Tuesday

Thank you, Ruth. I enjoyed it, too. Glad to see that "I'm Sorry I'll

As it's nearing the end of term here's a Wednesday Funny to help you
towards the weekend. But before posting this I just want to say in
response to Ruth's post...

> Thank you, Ruth.  I enjoyed it, too.  Glad to see that "I'm Sorry I'll
>> Read That Again" is still known and enjoyed;

...the antidote to panel games "I'm sorry I haven't a Clue" is still
going strong both on Radio4 and on BBC7 (the archive radio channel).
What's more both can be listened to at any time on the web via the
BBC's 'Listen Again' service.  Incidentally, do you know of any
teachers who provide a 'Listen Again' service for their students who
missed a lesson for whatever reason or as a revision service in the
run-up to exams? Anyway here's my Wednesday funny (culled from
another list of course): Enjoy,  David Bowles

Mensa Convention

Mensa is an organization whose members have an IQ of 140 or higher. A
few years ago, there was a Mensa convention in San Francisco, and
several members lunched at a local cafe. While dining, they discovered
that their saltshaker contained pepper and their pepper shaker was
full of salt. How could they swap the contents of the bottles without
spilling, and using only the implements at hand? Clearly this was a
job for Mensa! The group debated and presented ideas, and finally came
up with a brilliant solution involving a napkin, a straw, and an empty
saucer. They called the Blond waitress over to dazzle her with their
solution.

"Ma'am," they said, "we couldn't help but notice that the
pepper shaker contains salt and the salt shaker..."

"Oh," the  blond waitress interrupted. 
  "Sorry about that." 
  She  unscrewed the caps of both bottles and switched them. !
