Okay, since the market is down today, I think we need a joke:
A guy went to his travel agent and tried to book a two-week cruise for
himself and his lady friend. The travel agent said that all the ships
were booked up and reservations were very tight at that moment, but
that he would see what he could do.
A couple of days later, the travel agent phoned and said he could get
them onto a three-day cruise. The guy was disappointed that it was
such a short cruise, but booked it . . . and went to the drugstore to
buy Dramamines and three condoms.
The next day, the agent called back and reported that he now could book
a five-day cruise. The guy said, "Great, I'll take it!"! and returned
to the same pharmacy to buy two more Dramamines and two more condoms.
The following day, the travel agent called yet again, and said he was
delighted that he could offer them bookings on an eight-day cruise.
The guy was elated and, and went back to the drugstore. He asked for
three more Dramamine and three more condoms.
The pharmacist looked sympathetically at him and said,
"Look, I'm not trying to pry.. but, if it makes you sick
.. why do you keep doing it?"
