My family was playing a trivia board game one night. When it was my brother-in-law’s turn, he rolled the dice and landed on “Science & Nature.”

His question was, “If you are in a vacuum and someone calls your name, can you hear it?”

He thought for a moment and then asked, “Is it on or off?”

I asked a friend of mine by phone what he was doing. He told me he couldn’t talk because he was working on “aqua-thermal treatment of ceramics, aluminum, and steel while under a dangerously constrained environment.”

I was impressed. Until the following day when I learned that meant he was “washing dishes with hot water under his upset wife’s supervision.”

The first-time flier was very nervous as he buckled his seat belt before takeoff. He turned to the woman in the next seat and asked, “About how often do jetliners like this crash?”

The wise old Mother Superior from county Tipperary was dying. The nuns gathered around her bed trying to make her comfortable. They gave her some warm milk to drink, but she refused it. Then one nun took the glass back to the kitchen. Remembering a bottle of Irish whiskey received as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened and poured a generous amount into the warm milk.

Back at Mother Superior’s bed, she held the glass to her lips. Mother Superior drank a little, then a little more. Before they knew it, she had drunk the whole glass down to the last drop. “Mother”, the nuns pleaded, “Please give us some wisdom before you die.”

She raised herself up in bed with a pious look on her face and said, “Don’t sell that cow.”

She had some time before the flights departure, so she stopped in a Chinese restaurant in the concourse.

She started to shake as she read her fortune cookie…

“Today’s investment will pay big dividends!”
