    Never mind that. What I want to know is why elephants have four feet?

    The correct answer is "Because they'd look silly with four inches". That was the first rude joke I ever heard, just a few days shy of my thirtieth birthday. I'd led a sheltered life until then. And now, ten years later, I know about a dozen rude jokes.

    4. A man should be well rounded, even if he's a-hole.

    2. They are esthetically pleasing. Square covers were popular in the renaissance, but romanticism eventually required more sensuality, more style, more imagination. What could be more imaginative and romantic and exciting than a round manhole cover?

    I've always heard this as "what's the difference between an acrobatics act and a chorus line..." one's a cunning array of stunts...

    1. Open your mouth as big as you can and look in the mirror. What shape is it?
