Texas quarters

[DouginGA]

The United States Treasury has announced they are recalling the new Texas quarters.

"We are recalling all of the new Texas quarters that were recently issued," Treasury Undersecretary Russell Shackelford said in a press conference Monday. "This comes in the wake of numerous reports to this agency that the quarters will not work in parking meters, toll booths, vending machines, pay phones, or other coin-operated devices."

The winning design for the Texas quarter was submitted by Texas A&M student William Doutrieux.

"We believe the problem lies in a design flaw," said Shackelford. "Apparently, the duct tape holding the two dimes and nickel together keeps jamming the coin-operated devices."

just in a joking mood i guess

Two Arabs boarded a flight out of London. One took a window seat and the other sat next to him in the middle seat. Just before takeoff, an American sat down in the aisle seat.

After takeoff, the American kicked his shoes off, wiggled his toes and was settling in when the Arab in the window seat said, "I need to get up and get a coke." Don't get up," said the American, "I'm in the aisle seat; I'll get it for you."

As soon as he left, one of the Arabs picked up the American's shoe and spat in it. When he returned with the coke, the other Arab said, "That looks good, I'd really like one, too." Again, the American obligingly went to fetch it. While he was gone the other Arab picked up his other shoe and spat in it.

When the American returned, they all sat back and enjoyed the flight. As the plane was landing, the American slipped his feet into his shoes and knew immediately what had happened.

"Why does it have to be this way?" he asked. "How long must this go on? This fighting between our nations? This hatred? This animosity? This spitting in shoes and peeing in cokes.

A Frenchman, an Englishman, A Texan, and a Mexican are on an airplane travelling across the Atlantic.

All of a sudden there is a loud bang and the airplane starts shaking. The pilot comes on the intercom and says, "ladies and gentlemen, we've lost the number 4 engine. We're going to have to jettison the luggage".

The plane levels out, but 5 minutes later there is another loud bang. The pilot says, "ladies and gentlemen, we've just lost the number three engine and may not make it to the coast. Is there anyone who would be willing to give their life to save the rest of us?"

The Frenchman gets up, adjusts his beret, and throws himself off the plane, yelling "Vive La Fraaaance...."

This seems to help, but the plane is still losing altitude. The pilot tells them that they just might make it when BAM! - the number two engine goes out.

The Englishman bravely steps up and throws himself from the plane, yelling "God Save The Queeeeeen...."

The pilot tells the passengers they've only got one engine left, and if they could just lighten the load a bit more, they might just make it.

So the Texan stands up, puts on his cowboy hat............picks up the Mexican, and throws him off the plane, yelling "Remember The Alamooooo..."
