Picture a dark big city dead-end alley. At the edge of the alleyway is a lone street light. Under the light is a manhole ... A businessman walking past notices a hippy looking dude atop the manhole, The man - a laid back - real cool looking cat - was rocking the manhole cover back & forth singing and seemingly having a good time. The businessman is curious and goes down the ally to investigate.

As the man gets closer he hears the hippy singing loudly: "Forty-four ... Forty-four" The businessman, questions the hippy: "Excuse me, good sir ... You seem to be having a good time; Might I ask what you are doing there on that manhole?" The hippy slides his sunglasses down without missing a beat to his swaying motion atop the manhole replies with a smirk: "44 ... It's the latest thing ... 44" The hippy Continues: "Everyones doing it ... 44 ... 44 ... 44" The hippy continues to rock the manhole cover with a style & grace making the nerdy businessman wonder more about the fun he was surely missing out on. So the businessman after careful thought speaks up: "That sure does look fun, could I have a go of it next?" The hippy gives a half shrug and nods coolly and said: "44 ... Happy to show you how my friend ... 44 ... 44 ... it's qui-- " The businessman interrupts the hippy in mid-sentence, and rather rudely announces: "NO NEED - I'VE FIGURED IT ALL OUT!" assured if that "hippy" can do it -- a man of his education and stature could easily do it -- do it better, even! So the rude businessman quickly gets on the manhole cover: Kicks his heels back to each edge ... Then yells out: "forty-four" As he starts to get the disk to a wobble ... When the hippy states: "Um hey dude ... you should tri-" The businessman interrupts again: "I KNOW! I can do it ... forty-four ... forty-four ... forteeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeee --" e e e e e e e

AS THE MANHOLE COVER FLIPS AND HE FALLS INSIDE THE MANHOLE! The hippy, unfazed walks over to the manhole; kicks his heels back ... rocks his hips as the disk rocks to and fro ... and sings

"Forty - FIVE ... FORTY-FIVE ..."

Speaking of JOKES: Today's Comment might have looked like one to some ... Seems Fubars changed the way the comments turn out ... A lot of my stuff that I put together in a certain fashion to align in a column Like so: _ _ _ Ends up in a row: _ _ _ Which misses up the whole outcome? So heres the way it was supposed to look:
