This is too funny to pass up. It comes from dilbert's newsletter. You can subscribe at www.dilbert.com

I was working at a small family-owned company. At an all-hands meeting, the pointy-haired president of the company (the founder's son) announced that he had added a new employee to the staff: his daughter. "Now, some people might accuse me of incest, but this is actually a good business decision." There was a long pause before one of us wretches asked: "Uh...don't you mean 'nepotism'?"

I tried swimming at an outdoor pool today. Five signs that this is not one of my brighter moments:
1) It's the last day the pool is open before it closes for winter.
2) The lifeguard is wearing two layers.
3) It is advertised as a heated outdoor pool (26 degrees) which isn't very hot at all.
4) You can feel the chill when you surface for each stroke.
5) You want to keep swimming even after you are wrinkled, just to avoid having to get out.

And another thing about public swimming pools here: There are no individual showers in the female changing room. You shower in a row, guy-style. It's unsettling.
