TODAY'S WORD IS: recumbent (adjective)
Pronounced: rih-KUM-bunt
Meaning: Reclining; lying down.
While the lovers' intricately carved tombs -- with their host of angels surrounding the recumbent figures of the deceased -- draw crowds, the soaring space of the Gothic cathedral and the peaceful abbey cloisters seem to swallow and silence the busloads of visitors. - Jill Knight Weinberger, "Monuments To Love's Labors", New York Times, August 15, 1999
Winser was still recumbent but in his frenzy he was trying to writhe his way back onto his knees, kicking and twisting like a felled animal, struggling to wedge his heels under him, half rising, only to topple back again onto his side. - John le Carré, Single & Single

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Tough Job
A man goes into a sperm bank and says, "I'd like to make a deposit please."
The doctor says, "Go and fill this up," and gives the man a bottle.
Three days later the man returns to the sperm bank, marches into the doctor's office and says,
"I've tried with my left hand and tried with my right hand. My wife has tried with her left hand and her right hand. My mother-in-law has tried with a rubber glove on, my maid tried with her mouth, even my daughter's tooth fell out AND NONE OF US CAN GET THE TOP OFF THAT BOTTLE!"
String Theory
A string walks into a bar with a few friends and orders a beer. The bartender says, "I'm sorry, but we don't serve strings here."
The string walks away a little upset and sits down with his friends. A few minutes later he goes back to the bar and orders a beer. The bartender, looking a little exasperated, says, "I'm sorry, we don't serve strings here."
So the string goes back to his table. Then he gets an idea. He ties himself in a loop and messes up the top of his hair. Then he walks back up to the bar and orders a beer.
The bartender squints at him and says, "Hey, aren't you a string?"
The string replied instantly, "I'm knot!"

$20 million
A mat buys a ticket and wins the lottery. He goes to to claim it and the man verifies his ticket number.
The mat says, "I want my $20 million."
To which the man replied, "No sir. It doesn't work that way. We give you a million today, and then you'll get the rest spread out for the next 19 years.
The mat said, "I want all my money RIGHT now! I won it, and I want it."
Again the man patiently explains that he would only get a million that day and the rest during the next 19 years.
The mat, furious with the man, screams out, "Look, I WANT MY MONEY!! If you're not going to give me my $20 million right now, THEN I WANT MY DOLLAR BACK!''

Mr. Lee interviews the Indian first: "So, Muthu, this is a dangerous mission... how much do you think you should be paid for it?"
Muthu thinks to himself and says, "1 million dollars." "Why so much?" asks Dr. M. "Nowadays toddy wery expensive, Sir..." replies Muthu. "I see," said Mr. Lee. "Thank you... please ask the Malay guy to come here."
So the Malay walks up, and is asked the same question. "Uh, 2 million boleh lah," replies the Malay applicant. "2 million? That's a lot of money! Even the aneh before you only asked for one million!" You see, Sir," explained Mat. "I have 4 wives and 15 children. So, 20 of us in the family, we need a lot of money to support ourselves." "I see," said Mr. Lee. "Okay, can you ask the Chinese guy to come up here now?"
The Chinese guy comes in and Mr. Lee asks, "Ah Chong, this is a dangerous mission.. how much do you think you should be paid?" Ah Chong thinks for a while, and suddenly says, "3 million." Lee is shocked. "WHAT?!?! 3 million? Why so much?!" Ah Chong beckons Mr. Lee to come closer, and whispers, "One million you keep, one million I keep, and then one more million to send the aneh into space."

Unbelieveable!
A mat named Unbelieveable died, and his friend asked the tombstone maker to inscribe on his tombstone, "Here lies Unbelieveable, an intelligent man, and a mat."
The inscriber insisted that such an inscription would be confusing, for passersby would tend to think that three men were buried under the stone. However he suggested an alternative: He would inscribe, "Here lies a man who was both intelligent and a mat." That way, whenever anyone walked by the tombstone and read it, they would be certain to remark:
"That's Unbelieveable!"

"What is 2 divided by half?" After much prompting, he finally answered, "umm, 4?" "That is correct!" The audience cheered again. Finally, the mat went forward. "what is 2²?" He thought for 5 minutes and said, "is it 2?" "T'm sorry, but that is incorrect!" The audience were shocked. All the mats started screaming "Give him another chance! Give him another chance!" So the host agreed, "What is 2x2?" To which he thought for 10 minutes and finally said, "its 10!" All the mats screamed again, "Give him another chance! Give him another chance!". "Okay, this is your last chance. What is 2+2?" He thought hard for 15 minutes, "uh, is it 4?" The audience went into an uproar, and the host heaved a sigh of relief.
