      From: usteen@asdf.fi              Two toilet stories and anagrams associated with them:              Gracie Henderson, from New Caney, Texas, didn't have a plunger when her       toilet became clogged. Rather than resort to ringing a plumber, she       tried to clear the blockage by hand. She hadn't removed her       wristwatch first, however, and soon resorted to ringing the emergency       services to report that it had caught on something in the bowels of       the toilet. While her neighbours looked on and videoed the proceedings,       firefighters removed the commode from its fixings and carried it       outside. A little force from a sledgehammer then freed Henderson's       arm.               Gracie Henderson = Goner's reached in...        Gracie Henderson ~ chose 'drain' genre.        Gracie Henderson = 'Er, done searching?'                     The one with not as good an anagram (from me anyway):              When Montana's Gilbert Kalonde was applying for a state fishing       licence, the Wal-Mart worker handling the transaction asked him to       state his profession. Kalonde responded by showing the worker his       Montana State University identification card. When the licence was       issued, it did not list him 'Assistant Professor of Technology       Education'; his occupation had been recorded as toilet-cleaner.        Describing this database entry as exposing him to 'hatred, contempt,       ridicule', Kalonde has filed a libel suit for unspecified damages in       Gallatin County District Court.               Doctor Gilbert Kalonde       must have accidentally shown the worker his        broken-toilet gold card                     LG       --       A n n a S h e f l - For email, substitute 'usenet' for its anagram        - "Never eat more than you can lift." --Miss Piggy -        alt.anagrams FAQ: http://theanna.org/grams/        Weird news archive and more: http://theanna.org/              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
