the doctor for a check-up.  He said, "I              | /_   _`|

"How about smoking?" asked the doctor.        |   |     \  / \___/  |

"Never," replied the man. "Tobacco is bad, and I have strong principles
against it."

"Well, uh." asked the doctor, "do you have much sex life?"

"Oh, no," said the man. "Sex is sin. I'm in bed by 10:30 every night
and I always have been."

The doctor paused, looked at the man hard, and asked, "Well, do you
have pains in your head?"

"Aren't you going to       /LLLLLLLLLL|_____________________|

his  wife.  So he        /LLLLLLLLLLL/LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL\

"Hi there." slurs
the stranger, "Can you give me a push??"

"No, get lost, it's half past three. I was in bed." says the man and
slams the door.

He goes back up to bed and tells his wife what happened and she says
"Dave, that wasn't very nice of you. Remember that night we broke down
in the pouring rain on the way to pick the kids up from the baby-sitter
and you had to knock on that man's house to get us started again?  What
would have happened if he'd told us to get lost??"

"But the guy was drunk." says the husband.

"It doesn't matter." says the wife.  "He needs our help and it would be
the Christian thing to help him."

So the husband out of bed again, gets dressed, and goes downstairs.  He
opens the door, and not being able to see the stranger anywhere he
shouts: "Hey, do you still want a push??" and he hears a voice cry out
"Yeah  please."

So, still being unable to see the stranger he shouts: "Where are you?"
And the stranger replies: "I'm over here, on your swing."

There is a new virus going around,        ;-...,...-"`   |
called "work." If you receive any          \             |

the virus, send an e-mail to             |""--.._\  .'`-"    |

had enough of your crap...           jgs \__..--""/   `""""`\
I'm off to the pub."                             /           \

The "work" should automatically be forgotten by your brain. If you
receive "work" in paper-document form, simply lift the document and
drag
the "work" to your garbage can. Put on your hat and coat and skip to
the
nearest bar with two friends and order three pints of beer (or rum
punch).

After repeating this action 14 times, you will find that "work" will no
longer be of any relevance to you and that "Huckleberry Hound" was the
greatest cartoon ever.

Send this message to everyone in your address book. If you do NOT have
anyone in your address book, then I'm afraid the "work" virus has
already corrupted your life.
