A student played high school football in Detroit. He was a great running back, but a really poor student.
At graduation, he didn’t have enough credits but he was a great football star and the students held a rally and demanded the principal give him a diploma anyway. They were so insistent that the principal agreed if Dwayne could answer one question correctly he would give him a diploma.
The one question test was held in the auditorium and all the students packed the place. It was standing room only. The principal was on the stage and told Dwayne to come up. The principal had the diploma in his hand and said, “Dwayne, if you can answer this question correctly I’ll give you your diploma.”
Dwayne said he was ready and the principal asked him the question. “Dwayne,” he said, “How much is three times seven?”
Dwayne looked up at the ceiling and then down at his shoes, just pondering the question. The other students began chanting, “Graduate him anyway!” “Graduate him anyway!”
Dwayne held up his hand and the auditorium became silent. he said, “I think I know the answer. Three times seven is twenty-one.”
A hush fell over the auditorium and all the other students began another chant. “ Give him another chance ! ” “ Give him another chance ! ”
Ohmygod, that’s HILARIOUS. That little joke (it WAS a joke, right??) made my day.

We need to collaborate ……….. you could do a whole article on that Falcon you drove in college. I’m sure there are stories to tell. For example, you could relate the car to the economy …. shitty with the wheels falling off … how we got fucked while not enjoying it … that sort of thing, with just a little imagination.

The brakes did fail while I was driving home from the CPA exam in 1987. That car was such a tank, whoever I hit would have lost. They came back after some frantic pumping.
Dang that was funny….the other engineer that works with me was crying from laughing so hard.
I have a friend that swears this story is true.
A father in Bangkok sent his son to basketball camp.
When asked why
He replied
“My son is too short I want him to grow taller.”
