A Plan for the improvement of English spelling by Mark Twain.

For example, in Year 1 that useless letter 'c' would be dropped to be replased by either 'k' or 's' and likewise 'x' would no longer be a part of the alphabet. The only kase in which 'c' would be retained would be the 'ch' formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform 'w' spelling, so that which and one would take the same konsanant, wile Year 3 might well abolish 'y', replacing it with 'i' and Iear 4 might fiks the 'g/j' anomali wonse and for all.
Jenerally. then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear 5 doing awai with uselass double konsonants, and iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants.

For the Love of Beans...

 Once upon a time, there lived a man who had a terrible passion for baked beans.  He loved them, but they always had an embarrassing and somewhat  lively reaction on him. One day he met a girl and fell in love. When it was  apparent that they would marry, he thought to himself, "She'll never go through with the marriage with me carrying on like this" so he made the supreme sacrifice and gave up beans. Shortly after that, they were married.
  A few months later, on the way home from work, his car broke down and since they lived in the country, he phoned his wife and told her that he would be late because he had to walk. On his way home, he passed a small cafe and the wonderful aroma of baked beans overwhelmed him.
  Since he still had several miles to walk he thought he would walk off any ill effects before he got home. So he went in and ordered three extra large helpings of beans. All they way home he farted. By the time he arrived  home he felt reasonably safe.
  His wife met him at the door and seemed somewhat excited. She exclaimed,  "Darling, I have the most wonderful surprise for you for dinner tonight!" She put a blindfold on him and led him to his chair at the head of the table and made him promise not to peek. At this point he was beginning to feel another fart coming on. Just as his wife was about to remove the blindfold, the phone rang. She again made him promise not to peek until she returned and went to answer the phone.
  While she was gone, he seized the opportunity. He shifted his weight to one leg and let go. It was not only loud, but ripe as a rotten egg. He had a hard time breathing, so he felt for his napkin and fanned the air about him. He had just started to feel better when another urge came on. He raised his leg and rriiippp!!  It sounded like a diesel engine revving and smelled worse.  To keep himself from gagging, he tried fanning his arms a while, hoping the smell would dissipate. Things had just about returned to normal when he felt another urge coming. He shifted his weight to his other leg and let go. This was a real blue ribbon winner; the windows shook, the dishes on the table rattled and a minute later the flowers on the table were dead. While keeping an ear tuned in on the conversation in the hallway, and keeping his promise of staying blindfolded, he carried on like this for the next 10 minutes, farting and then fanning each time with his napkin.
  When he heard the phone farewells (indicating the end of his loneliness and freedom) he neatly laid his napkin on his lap and folded his hands on top of it. Smiling contentedly, he was the picture of innocence when his wife walked in.
  Apologizing for taking so long, she asked if he had peeked at the dinner table.  After assuring her he had not peeked, she removed the blindfold and yelled "SURPRISE!!"

  To his shock and horror, there were twelve dinner guests seated around the table for his surprise birthday party.

Idiot Sightings

When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership
to pick up our car, we were told that the keys had been accidentally
locked in it.  We went to the service department and found a mechanic
working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched from
the passenger's side, I instinctively tried the door handle and
discovered it was open.  "Hey," I announced to the technician, "It's
open!"  "I know," answered the young man.  "I already got that side."

Yup - it's the 535 members of your United States Congress.
The same group that perpetually cranks out hundreds upon hundreds of new laws designed to keep the rest of us in line.

A teacher asked her young pupils how they spent their vacation.
One child wrote the following:

"We always used to spend the holidays with Grandma and Grandpa.
They used to live here in a big brick house, but Grandpa got retarded
and they moved to Florida and now they live in a place with a lot of other
retarded people.

They live in a tin box and have rocks painted green to look like grass.
They ride around on big tricycles and wear name tags because they don't know
who they are anymore. They go to a building called a wrecked center, but
they must have got it fixed, because it is all right now.

They play games and do exercises there, but they don't do them very
well.  There is a swimming pool, too, but they all jump up and down
in it with their hats on. I guess they don't know how to swim.

At their gate, there is a doll house with a little old man sitting
in it. He watches all day so nobody can escape.  Sometimes they sneak out.
Then they go cruising in their golf carts.

My Grandma used to bake cookies and stuff, but I guess she forgot how.
Nobody there cooks, they just eat out. And they eat the same thing every
night: Early Birds. Some of the people can't get past the man in the
dollhouse to go out. So the ones who do get out bring food back to the
wrecked center and call it pot luck.

My Grandma says Grandpa worked all his life to earn his retardment and says
I should work hard so I can be retarded some day, too. when I earn my
retardment I want to be the man in the doll house.  Then I will let people
out so they can visit their grandchildren."

A blonde bought two horses, and could never remember which was
which.

A neighbor suggested that she cut the tail of one horse and
that worked great until the other horse got his tail caught in
a bush.

It tore just right and looked exactly like the other horse's
tail and our blonde friend was stuck again.

The neighbor suggested she notch the ear of one horse.

That worked fine until the other horse caught his ear on a
barbed wire fence.

Once again our friend couldn't tell them apart.

The neighbor suggested she measure the horses for height.

When she did, she was very pleased to find that the white
horse was 2 inches taller than the black one.

The Difference Between Men and Women in One Paragraph:

A man is driving up a steep, narrow mountain road. A woman is driving down the same road.  As they pass each other, the woman leans out of her window and yells, "PIG!!"  The man immediately leans out of his window and replies, "BITCH!!"  They each continue on their way, and as the man rounds the next corner, he crashes into a pig in the middle of the road.

Once upon a time in a large magical forest a frog was sitting on a log
thinking about how lonely he was. All of a sudden he was startled by a
bear chasing a rabbit through the bushes. He was so happy to see other
animals that he stooped them and granted them each 3 wishes. The bear
quickly said, "I wish all the bears in this forest besides me were
female." The rabbit thought for a moment and wished for a crash helmet
and immediately put it on. The bear was shocked that the rabbit wasted
his first wish and said, "For my 2nd wish I wish that all the bears in
the next forest were female too." The rabbit quickly responded, "For my
2nd wish I would like a motorcycle."  It appeared and he jumped right on.
The bear was just astonished and said, "For my 3rd I wish that all the
bears in the world were female." The rabbit started his motorcycle,
revved the engine, and said " For my 3rd wish I wish the bear was gay"

A professor at the University of Kentucky is giving a lecture on the supernatural.

 To get a feel for his audience, he asks:
"How many people here believe in ghosts?" About 90 students raise their hands.
"Well that's a good start. Out of those of you who believe in ghosts, do any of you think you've ever seen a ghost?" About 40 students raise their hands.
"That's really good. I'm really glad you take this seriously. Has anyone here ever talked to a ghost?" 15 students raise their hands.
"That's a great response. Has anyone here ever touched a ghost?" 3 students raise their hands.
"That's fantastic. But let me ask you one question further... Have any of you ever made love to a ghost?" One student way in the back raises his hand.
  The professor is astonished. He takes off his glasses, takes a step back, and says, "Son, all the years I've been giving this lecture, no one has ever claimed to have
slept with a ghost. You've got to come up here and tell us about your experience."
  The redneck student replies with a nod and a grin, and begins to make his way up to the podium. As he ambles slowly toward the podium the professor
says, "Well, tell us what it's like to have sex with a ghost."
The student replies, "Ghost?!? Shiiiiiit..... From way back there I thought you said "goats."

An American is having breakfast one morning; coffee, croissants, bread, butter & jam when a Canadian man, chewing gum, sits down next to him.
The American ignores the Canadian who, nevertheless, starts a conversation:
Canadian: "You American folk eat the whole bread??"
American (in a bad mood): "Of course."
Canadian: (after blowing a huge bubble) "We don't. In Canada, We only eat what's inside.
The crusts we collect in a container, recycle it, transform them into croissants and sell them to the states." The Canadian has a smirk on his face.
The American listens in silence.
The Canadian persists: "Do you eat jelly with the bread??"
American: "Of Course."
Canadian: (cracking his gum between his teeth and chuckling).
"We don't. In Canada we eat fresh fruit for breakfast, then we put all the peels, seeds, and leftovers in containers, recycle them, transform
them into jam and sell the jam to the states."
The American then asks: "Do you have sex in Canada?"
Canadian: "Why of course we do", the Canadian says with a big smirk.
American: And what do you do with the condoms once you've used them?"
Canadian: "We throw them away, of course."
American: "We don't. In America, we put them in a container, recycle them, melt them down into chewing gum and sell them to Canada.

The long awaited 1999 Darwin "Natural Selection" Awards have been released!

These awards are given each year to bestow upon (the remains
 of) that individual, who through single-minded self-sacrifice, has
 done the most to remove undesirable elements from the human gene
 pool.

 5th Runner-up:  Goes to a San Anselmo, California man died when he hit
 a lift tower at the Mammoth Mountain ski area while riding down the
 slope on a foam pad. 22-year old David Hubal was pronounced dead at
 Central Mammoth Hospital. The accident occurred about 3 a.m., the Mono
 County Sheriff's Department said.  Hubal and his friends apparently
 had hiked up a ski run called Stump Alley and undid some yellow foam
 protectors from lift towers, said Lt. Mike Donnelly of the Mammoth
 Lakes Police Department. The pads are used to protect skiers who might
 hit towers. The group apparently used the pads to slide down the ski
 slope and Hubal crashed into a tower. It has since been investigated
 and determined the tower he hit was the one with its pad removed.
 

 4th Runner-up:  Goes to Robert Puelo, 32, was apparently being
 disorderly in a St.Louis market. When the clerk threatened to call the
 police, Puelo grabbed a hot dog, shoved it into his mouth and walked
 out without paying. Police found him unconscious in front of the
 store. Paramedics removed the six-inch wiener from his throat where it
 had choked him to death.
 

 3rd Runner-up:  Goes to poacher Marino Malerba of Spain, who shot a
 stag standing above him on an overhanging rock and was killed
 instantly when it fell on him.
 

 2nd Runner-up:  "Man loses face at party". A man at a West Virginia
 party (probably related to the man in Arkansas who used the 22 bullet
 to replace the fuse in his pick-up truck) popped a blasting cap into
 his mouth and bit down, triggering an explosion that blew off his
 lips, teeth, and tongue. Jerry Stromyer, 24, of Kincaid, bit the
 blasting cap as a prank during the party late Tuesday night, said Cpl.
 M.D. Payne. "Another man had it in an aquarium hooked to a battery and
 was trying to explode it", said Payne. "It wouldn't go off and this
 guy said I'll show you how to set it off". "He put it into his mouth
 and bit down. It blew all his teeth out and his lips and tongue off",
 Payne said. Stromyer was listed in guarded condition Wednesday with
 extensive facial injuries, according to a spokesperson at Charleston
 Area Medical Division. "I just can't imagine anyone doing something
 like that" Payne said.

 1st Runner-up: Doctors at Portland University Hospital said an Oregon
 man shot through the skull by a hunting arrow is lucky to be alive and
 will be released soon from the hospital. Tony Roberts, 25, lost his
 right eye last weekend during an initiation into a men's rafting club,
 Mountain Men Anonymous (probably known now as Stupid Mountain Men
 Anonymous) in Grants Pass, Oregon. A friend tried to shoot a beer can
 off his head, but the arrow entered Robert's right eye. Doctors said
 had the arrow gone 1 millimeter to the left, a major blood vessel
 would have been cut and Roberts would have died instantly.
 Neurosurgeon Doctor Johnny Delashaw at the University Hospital in
 Portland said the arrow went through 8 to 10 inches of brain with the
 tip protruding at the rear of his skull, yet somehow managed to miss
 all major blood vessels. Delashaw also said had Roberts tried to pull
 the arrow out on his own he surely would have killed himself. Roberts
 admitted afterwards he and his friends had been drinking that
 afternoon. Said Roberts, "I feel so dumb about this". No charges have
 been filed, but the Josephine County district attorney's office said
 the initiation stunt is under investigation.
 

 This year's winners: (The late) John Pernicky and his friend,(the
 late) Sal Hawkins, of the great state of Washington, decided to attend
 a local Metallica concert at the George Washington amphitheater.
 Having no tickets (but having had 18 beers between them), they thought
 it would be easy to "hop" over the nine-foot fence and sneak into the
 show. They pulled their pick-up truck over to the fence and the plan
 was for (the late) Mr. Pernicky who was 100-pounds heavier than Mr.
 Hawkins) to hop the fence and then assist his friend over.
 Unfortunately for (the late) Mr. Pernicky, there was a 30-foot drop on
 the other side of the fence. Having heaved himself over, he found
 himself crashing through a tree. His fall was abruptly halted (and
 broken, along with his arm, as it were) by a large branch that snagged
 him by his shorts. Dangling from the tree with a broken arm, he looked
 down and saw some bushes below him. (Possibly) figuring the bushes
 would break his fall; he removed his pocketknife and proceeded to cut
 away his shorts to free himself from the tree. Finally free, Mr.
 Pernicky crashed into Holly bushes. The sharp leaves scratched his
 ENTIRE body and now, without the protection of his shorts, a Holly
 branch penetrated his rectal cavity. To make matters worse (?!), on
 landing, his pocketknife penetrated his thigh 3-inches. Mr.Hawkins, on
 seeing his friend in considerable pain and agony, decided to throw him
 a rope and pull him to safety by tying the rope to the pick-up truck
 and slowly driving away. However, in his drunken haste/state, he put
 the truck into reverse and crashed through the fence landing on his
 friend and killing him. Police arrived to find the crashed pick-up
 with its driver thrown 100-feet from the truck and dead at the scene
 from massive internal injuries. Upon moving the truck, they found John
 under it, half-naked with scratches on his body, a holly stick in his
 rectum, a knife in his thigh, and his shorts dangling from a tree
 branch 25-feet in the air.

 A young man wanted to purchase a gift for his new sweetheart's birthday and as they had not been dating very long, after careful consideration, he decided a pair of gloves would strike the right note: romantic but not too personal. Accompanied by his sweetheart's younger sister, he went to Nordstrom's and bought a pair of white gloves. The sister purchased a pair of panties for herself. During the wrapping, the clerk mixed up the items and the sister got the gloves and the sweetheart got the panties. Without checking the contents, the young man sealed the package and sent it to his sweetheart with the following note :

 "I chose these because I noticed that you are not in the habit of wearing any when we go out in the evening.
If it had not been for your sister, I  would have chosen the long ones with the buttons but she wears short ones
 that are easier to remove. These are a delicate shade, but the lady I bought them from showed me the pair she had been wearing for the past three weeks
 and they are hardly soiled. I had her try yours on for me and she looked really smart. I wish I was there to put them on for you the first time as no doubt other hands will come in contact with them before I have a chance to see you again. When you take them off, remember to blow in them before putting them
 away as they will naturally be a little damp from wearing. Just think how many times I will kiss them during the coming year! All my love.

 PS The latest style is to wear them folded down with a little fur showing.
