Quote
- It’s a glorious feeling when that piece of paper under the windshield wiper blade turns out to be an advertising circular.
What a Relief!
- Finding out that the mess you’re in is fully covered under your insurance policy
- Discovering something you bought costing more than you paid for it
- Finding something you thought you’d lost before you go out and buy a new one.
- Realizing after you’ve locked the keys in the car that you forgot to close a window.
Paper Planes
At the commencement exercises for Purdue University’s engineering schools, graduates of each school stood en masse to be recognized by the dean of engineering. When the aeronautical-engineering students rose, they launched a swarm of paper airplanes toward the stage, where the university’s president and other dignitaries were sitting. After students from all the schools had risen in turn, the president stepped up to the rostrum. Looking at the paper planes covering the stage floor, he remarked, “I’m very glad the agricultural-engineering graduates decided not to throw anything.”
