COWS IN CONVERSATION Following 'Horses in Harmony' on Serendipity Page 4, now try something a little different. This time, instead of a horse-quartet, we have a cow-trio, and they are not so much in harmony as in dispute - and pretty angry to be considered mad. Click on the cow-shaking-her-head link to the right and then let your mouse hover over each cow in turn to eavesdrop on their conversation.

ON THIS DAY

A new SIGLET every day

SIGLET OF THE DAY

Siglets are perhaps better known as Signature file add ons. They are the little blurbs, humorous anecdotes, famous quotes, or sometimes ascii pictures which you often see at the bottom of emails you receive. This is an example of an ascii siglet - one made up entirely of keyboard characters. \|||/ (o o) ------ooO-(_)-Ooo------

A SELECTION OF HUMOROUS ANECDOTES DERIVED FROM THE PAGES OF "READERS' DIGEST" A friend of mine always carries sweets with her and offers them to anyone she feels has been particularly helpful. Going through a supermarket checkout, she put a sweet down on the counter in front of the friendly man at the till. He refused politely, but she insisted and pushed the sweet back towards him and he accepted it. When my friend arrived home, she checked her receipt and found she'd been charged 3p for confectionery from the pick-and-mix selection. I was teaching a course on communications at Newbattle Abbey College near Edinburgh and pinned a notice to my desk reading "Please do not read this poster" - the point being that by the time you had finished reading the message, it was too late to comply. Later, I found myself called to the principal's office to answer a complaint from the woman who cleaned my office. She wanted me to know that she never read anything on my desk. David checked his wage packet and found that it was £1 short. He went straight to his manager to complain. "You didn't say anything last week," pointed out the manager, "when I paid you £2 too much." "I don't mind overlooking one mistake," replied David, "but when it happens twice..." A homeless beggar walked up to a well-dressed woman shopping in Harrods and moaned, "I haven't eaten anything in four days." The woman looked at him, sighed, and said, "Gosh, ! wish I had your will power." The bartender at our golf club named a drink Lilac Crazy in honour of one of the members. Every time the member came to the nineteenth hole, that's exactly what he did.       How many dogs does it take to change a light bulb? Golden Retriever:    The sun is shining, the day is young. We've got our whole lives ahead of us and you're inside worrying about a stupid light bulb? German Shepherd:    I'll guard it while you decide. Toy poodle:    I'll just blow in the Border collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry. Rottweiler:    Go ahead. Make me! Jack Russell:    I can reach it. Just another 20 jumps and it's all mine! Cocker spaniel:    Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark. Labrador:    Me! Me! Please let me change the bulb. Can I? Huh? Huh? Greyhound:    If it isn't moving, who cares? Pointer:    Why keep a mistress and bark yourself?
