It was the accepted
practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after
the wedding, the
bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead
he could drink.
Mead is a honey beer, and because their calendar was lunar
based, this period
was called the "honey month" or what we know today as
the
"honeymoon."

In English pubs, ale is ordered by
pints and quarts. So in old England, when
customers got unruly, the bartender
would yell at them to mind their own pints
and quarts and settle down. It's
where we get the phrase "mind your P's and
Q's."

Joey-Jim was tooling along the road one fine day when the local policeman, a friend of his, pulled him over. "What's wrong, Seamus?" Joey-Jim asked. "Well didn't ya know, Joey-Jim, that your wife fell out of the car about five miles back?" said Seamus. "Ah, praise the Almighty!" he replied with relief. "I thought I'd gone deaf!"

A chauffeur worked for a woman who took her cat with her on
rides.
During one trip, the driver droped her at a mall before he gasing
up. The cat remained in the car, laying down on the top of the limousine's back
seat.
The service station's attendant often glanced at unusual passenger.
Finally, he asked: "Sir, is that cat someone important?"

One student fell into a cycle of classes,
studying, working and sleeping.
Didn't realize how long he had neglected
writing home until he received the following note:
"Dear Son, Your mother
and I enjoyed your last letter. Of course, we were much younger then, and more
impressionable. Love,
Dad."

This last weekend I was reminded at the pace we are converting
to metric. I was on I-75 in Ohio when I saw a sign that said:
All signs
metric
Next 20 miles

The "Environmental Engineering News" published some rather
sobering information about punishment for drunk driving convictions in other
countries.
In Australia, the names of drunk drivers are printed in
newspapers under the caption, "He's drunk and in jail."
In Malaysia the
driver is jailed and, if married, the spouse is jailed.
In the United
Kingdom, Finland and Sweden there's an automatic jail term of one
year.
In Turkey, drunk drivers are driven twenty miles out of town and
forced to walk back ten miles.
In Bulgaria, a second drunk-driving
conviction results in capital punishment.
In El Salvador, your first
offense is your last -- execution by firing squad.
