The band leader at the Waldorf Astoria walked up to the mike.  "For our next
selection, we will perform a song composed by George Gershwin and his lovely
wife, Ira."
The French horn player jumped up and yelled, "Wait!  Wait!  Ira was George
Gershwin's BROTHER!!"
Bewildered, the conductor scratched his head and said... "Now why would a
guy marry his own brother?!?!?"

"There are three kinds of men:
The ones that learn by reading.
The few who learn by observation.
The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for
themselves."
--William Penn Adair (Will) Rogers B: 11/4/1879 D: 8/15/1935
