Preliminary operational tests were inconclusive (The damn thing blew up when we threw the switch.)
Test results were extremely gratifying (We are so surprised that the stupid thing works.)
The entire concept will have to be abandoned. (The only person who understood the thing quit.)
It is in process. (It is so wrapped up in red tape that the situation is about hopeless.)
We’ll look into it. (Forget it! We have enough problems for now.)
Guido, the top Mafia hitman, discovers that his accountant has been embezzling money from him. The accountant, who happens to be deaf, has stolen over $10 million dollars. Guido goes to the accountant’s office with his lawyer in tow. His lawyer can read sign language. Guido asks the accountant, “Where is the $10 million dollars you have stolen from me?” The account signs back, and the lawyer interprets, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Guido pulls out a .357 magnum and points it at the accountant’s head and again demands to know where his money is. The accountant begins to sign frantically, “OK! OK! Don’t kill me! It’s in a suitcase that I buried in my back yard behind the garage next to my tomato plants!” Guido asks his lawyer, “Well, what did he say?” The Lawyer says, “Well, I’ve haven’t quite get it all, but it appears to me that he said ‘I don’t think you have the balls to pull the trigger’ or something like that…”
A number of different approaches are being tried. (We are still grasping at straws.)
We’re working on a fresh approach to the problem.(We just hired three kids fresh out of college.)
Close project coordination (We know who to blame.)
Major technological breathrough (It works OK, but looks very hi-tech.
Customer satisfaction upon delivery is assured. (We are so far behind schedule the customer is happy to get it delivered.)
So we are ready to show you the pictures of the second reunion of The GEEK. We have a few pictures to show you.
Yeah, baby, yeah! The GEEK will reunite tomorrow, Thursday 27 of March, at Scratch du Ouro, where we will eat, have fun, and speak of everything except soccer because we want to have a good time. Oh, what the hell, we’ll speak of soccer too. This restaurant features a huge buffet composed almost entirely of brazilian cuisine, mostly meats cooked in an wood oven, and a few herbs, mostly grass, for the vegans.
You have an appointment at Scratch du Ouro, Prolongación Américas 350, Zapopan, Jalisco, at 2:00 pm. Don’t take anything for breakfast. Ask for Guillermo or Quoth.
There was once a small town prosecuting attorney in a trial. He called his first witness to the stand –a grandmotherly, elderly woman. He approached her and asked, “Mrs. Jones, do you know me?”
