Curses! Once upon a time a witch (who adored beards) put a curse upon a man named Benny, a curse to turn him into clay if he ever shaved again. Well, Benny didn’t believe in curses, so the next morning he got up and started to shave. As soon as he finished the first stroke with his razor, POOF, he turned into a (lovely) porcelain vase. Which just goes to show you, A Benny Shaved is a Benny Urned.

As we walked through the gym, we came upon a plaque on the wall which announced that I was the school’s record holder for the longest softball throw. Proud, but a little surprised – it had been ten years, after all – I paused in front of the plaque, just as Coach Carlier said, “That record will stand forever.” I think I shuffled my feet – I know I blushed. Clearing my throat, I was about to thank him for his confidence in me, while adding something becomingly modest, like ‘records exist to be broken,’ when the coach added, “We stopped holding that event years ago.” Trouble at the Golf Course George and Jeff were out golfing one morning. George sliced his ball deep into a wooded ravine, so he grabbed his 8-iron and proceeded down the embankment into the ravine in search of his ball. As he searched diligently through the thick underbrush, he spotted something shiny. When he got closer, he realized that the shiny object was in fact an 8-iron, lying in the hands of a skeleton that was stretched out near a weathered looking golf ball. “Jeff,” George yelled. “Get over here. I’ve got big trouble down here.” Jeff peered into the ravine. “What’s wrong?” he yelled back. “I need you to throw me my 7-iron! It looks like you can’t get out of here with an 8-iron!” BAYOU CAFE PUERTO RICO RESTAURANT 6.95 SPECIALS Savannah’s Only Authentic Puerto Rican Restaurant Served with rice, beans, salad & drink Full Meals Baby Back Ribs LIVE MUSIC 7 NIGHTS A WEEK! $ LUNCH Sandwiches GOOD TUNES.

He masters the classroom instruction, then starts his practical training at the wheel of the vessel. In his first lesson, the mate gives him a heading, and the young fellow holds to it. Then the mate orders, “Come starboard.” Pleased at knowing immediately which way starboard is, the young man leaves the helm and walks over to his instructor. As the helm swings freely, the mate raises one eyebrow and asks, gently, “Could you please bring the ship with you?” Dishing It Out My friend’s husband always teases her about her lack of interest in household chores.
