I read a while back in MT or C&D about the extensions put on most car names.
The SE, EX, SX, XE, ES and XS, etc. extensions are supposed to be subliminal
advertising, linking the car to sex deep in your subconscious - IOW, buy
this SX car and you will get sex. If that's the case, maybe SLT is slut?
LOL
and now, something completely different.......
------------------------------------------------------------
Here's a real stumper!
Three guys in a hotel call room service and order two large pizzas. The
delivery boy brings them up with a bill for exactly $30.00. Each guy gives
him a $10.00 bill, and he leaves. That's fact!
When he hands the $30.00 to the cashier, he is told a mistake was made. The
bill was only $25.00, not $30.00. The cashier gives the delivery boy five
$1.00 bills and tells him to take it back to the 3 guys who ordered the
pizza. That's fact!
On the way back to their room, the delivery boy has a thought... these guys
did not give him a tip. He figures that since there is no way to split $5.00
evenly three ways anyhow, he will keep two dollars for himself and give them
back three dollars. OK! So far so good!
He knocks on the door and one fellow answers. He explains about a mix up in
the bill, and hands he guy the three dollars, then departs with his
two-dollar tip in his pocket.
Now the fun begins!
Remember $30-$25=$5 Right? $5-$3=$2 Right?
So what's the problem? All is well, right?
Not quite. Answer this:
Each of the three guys originally gave $10.00 each. They each got back $1.00
in change.
That means they paid $9.00 each, which times three is $27.00. The delivery
boy kept $2.00 for a tip.
$27.00 plus $2.00 equals $29.00.
Where the heck is the other dollar ?????????
