How to make a plastic "prison key"

One day, at the seafood market...

A Japanese man goes to the seafood market to buy his dinner. He purchases a live lobster and a live catfish, then walks home.

Unfortunately, on the way home he doesn’t look both ways crossing the street, and is hit by a large truck. The man and the lobster are both killed instantly.

By some miracle, the catfish survives.

Because, you see, the others were both crustaceans.

(Thanks, Phil!)

Tunesmith Tuesday - Avenue Q's "Schadenfreude"

In 2004, the Broadway musical Wicked was all the rage. Everybody wanted to see the "untold" story of L. Frank Baum's The Wizard of Oz. As tremendously popular as it was, the show lost the Tony Award for Best Musical (and Best Original Score, and Best Book of a Musical) to Avenue Q, which is best described as, "Sesame Street for Grown-Ups"

All of the characters (human and muppet) are young adults, searching for their "purpose" in life, and facing real-world adult problems with uncertain outcomes, as opposed to the simplistic problems and invariably happy resolutions faced by characters on children's television programming.

Songs include, "It Sucks to Be You", "What Do You Do With a B.A. in English?", "If You Were Gay", "The Internet is For Porn", and this week's featured tune, "Schadenfreude"

For the cat lovers...

Monday Mind Game

A homicide team enters a crime scene where a dead body of a fat old man lies there on the floor with blood oozing out of his head. The victim is holding a gun and a tape recorder lies there by his side. One of the detectives picks up the recorder, pushes the PLAY button and hears, "I am tired of this life and hence I have decided to relieve myself from the worldly pains". A gunshot follows the message.

At that point the team declares that this is now a homicide investigation.

Why?

Give up?

If the man had actually killed himself, he would not have been able to rewind the cassette.
