Spelling Contest and Osteoporosis
Ray here: Shhh, don't tell April, but the reason we came within about 2 INCHES of smacking into the big tractor trailer rig yesterday was I was paying more attention to this cute blonde in the sports car than I was to, uhh, the 80,000 pound truck in front of me. Honest to God, we came close enough to tell how much tread this guy had on his tires.
Dad," said the boy, "we had a spelling contest in school today and I missed on the very first word."
"That's too bad, Son." consoled the Father. "What was the word?"
"Posse."
"Well, no wonder you couldn't spell it, lunkhead. You can't even pronounce it correctly."
But, one reporter, reading ahead, shouts from the front row, "You've got kissing on the list as a way to prevent osteoporosis! There isn't any calcium in a kiss!"
The scientist replied calmly, "In a good kiss, there's enough calcium to make a bone about 6 inches long."
