Overheard in a British Pub
This was lifted from Bill Bonner's newsletter, "The Daily Reckoning":

Overheard in a British Pub:

"Did you hear where President Bush is headed next?"

"No... where?"

"Well, he's decided Mars isn't far enough. He's going to the sun."

"The sun? How is that possible... wouldn't the shuttle burn up?"

"Oh, that's no problem... he says they'll go at night."

3. A Buddist master goes up to a hot dog stand and says
Make me one with everything.

5. Best pub conversation ..
... I ever heard of was in a book called "Beer and Skittles" by Richard Boston, who used to write on beer for the Guardian.

He claimed that, in his local, there was a sad little man who used to sit at the corner of the bar just waiting for someone to say,

"It looks like rain."

At which he would pick up his glass of beer, peer at it sadly and say.

"With just a faint tinge of hops."
