IJMC There Is No Spoon

                      IJMC - There Is No Spoon

Quite a few of you have already responded to the little survey I sent out 
the other night. I must say, the responses span quite a range, although I 
am going to wait another day before I combine the answers. So, until 
then, read about spoons and efficiency.                             -dave







A man entered a restaurant and sat at the only open table. As he
sat down, he knocked the spoon off the table with his elbow.

A nearby waiter reached into his shirt pocket, pulled out a clean
spoon and set it on the table. The diner was impressed. "Do all the
waiters carry spoons in their pockets?"  The waiter replied, "Yes.
Ever since we had that efficiency expert out, he determined that 17.8%
of our diners knock the spoon off the table. By carrying clean spoons
with us, we save trips to the kitchen."

The diner ate his meal. As he was paying the waiter, he commented,
"Forgive the intrusion, but do you know that you have a string
hanging from your fly?"  The waiter replied, "Yes, we all do. Seems
that the same efficiency expert determined that we spend too much time
washing our hands after using the men's room.  So, the other end of
that string is tied to my penis.  When I need to go, I simply pull the
string to get my penis out, go, and return to work.  Since I don't
actually touch myself, there's no need to wash my hands.  Saves a lot
of time."

"Wait a minute," said the diner.
"How do you get your penis back in your pants???"

"Well, I don't know about the other guys, but I use the spoon!!!"
