HI
Here is a creative e-mail request.=20
I am pulling together pieces for the 5th edition of my textbook,

schools and teachers and students. Phyllis is helping as well, and has put
together the following idea as a way to get funny one liners. Have any good
oneliners? Be creative. This is NOT a read a joke - this is a create a joke=
=2E
Feel free to contribute any to these topics below. And email back.=20
All entries become the property of me and Phyllis. If you want them ba=

Winners will be notified. Eventually.
Have fun! And THANKS for your help.
