SMART TALK
by Dr. Ced Riley
MOTORCYCLES MAY MOUNT SIDEWAYS:
At the Institute for the Linguistically Impaired, the staff enjoys
unwinding over a schooner or two in the Fowler Lounge after a stressful week of
treating patients for plan ahead, mental
telepathy, and the like. One of
favorite amusements is reading product directions on foreign made items. Thanks to our tax laws, that's most items.
Dr. Garrell S. Utter came in
a while back with the packaging card for a set of deer whistles and soon had us
in hysterics as he read some of the directions aloud.
"Motorcycles may mount
sideways," for instance.
"So that's how they
reproduce," mused Dr. Saber S. Poder.
"Mounting surface must be
dry, clean, and warm to the touch," Dr. Utter continued reading.
"Yes. I can understand why," quipped Dr. Poder.
