Nancy's Nuggets:
Think About These

Can you cry under water?
Why do you have to "put your two cents in".. . but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?
Once you're in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity?
What disease did cured ham actually have?
How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?
Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours?
If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?
Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?
Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride; he sticks his head out the window?

Cheat Sheet

This comes to us from Teacher's Magazine. Apparently, students have found some very interesting ways to cheat on exams. Here are some of the more creative:

[1] Personal Digital Assistants: Students send information to one another through their PDA's and use the devices to store formulas and notes.

[2] Cell Phones: In addition to text-messaging answers to one another, students take pictures of the tests and beam the images to friends.

[3] MP3 Players: Before the test students record answers and then listen to them through earphones during the test.

[4] Water Bottles: Students write the answers on the inside of the label and then reattach it so it's visible through the water during the test.

[5] Invisible Ink Pens: Kids write notes or formulas with the ink and then use the pen's ultraviolet flashlight during the test.

[6] M&Ms: Yes, M&Ms!! After assigning each candy a color in a multiple choice test, students line up the M&Ms on the desks in the order of the answers.

Actual Conversations with Pilots

Tower: "Delta 351, you have traffic at 10 o'clock, 6 miles!"
Delta 351: "Give us another hint! We have digital watches!"

Tower: "TWA 2341, for noise abatement turn right 45 Degrees."
TWA 2341: "Center, we are at 35,000 feet. How much noise can we make up here?"
Tower: "Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 747 makes when it hits a 727?"

A student became lost during a solo cross-country flight. While attempting to locate the aircraft on radar, ATC asked, "What was your last known position?"
Student: "When I was number one for takeoff."

A DC-10 had come in a little hot and thus had an exceedingly long roll out after touching down. San Jose Tower Noted: "American 751, make a hard right turn at the end of the runway, if you are able. If you are not able, take the Guadeloupe exit off Highway 101, make a right at the lights and return to the airport."

Tower: "Eastern 702, cleared for takeoff, contact Departure on frequency 124.7"
Eastern 702: "Tower, Eastern 702 switching to Departure. By the way,after we lifted off we saw some kind of dead animal on the far end of the runway."
Tower: "Continental 635, cleared for takeoff behind Eastern 702, contact Departure on frequency 124.7 Did you copy that report from Eastern 702?"
BR Continental 635: "Continental 635, cleared for takeoff, roger; and yes, we copied Eastern... we've already notified our caterers."
