A few months after I was born, my dad, who worked for the Bureau of Land Management, got transferred to Fairbanks, Alaska. It was a small office, so everyone knew everyone. One day, some of his co-workers who worked for Fish and Wildlife, had to go conduct a survey on one of the remote sites in the Aleutian Islands. They were going by boat, which can be very tricky because storms can roll in with no warning. The idea was that the men would be ferried from the main ship via a small boat, which would then make another trip with their food. Sure enough, right after the men were put ashore, a violent storm blew in. It was so bad that the ship had to leave or risk being run aground. That left these men without food until the ship could return a week later. Being resourceful guys, they figured out that they could kill arctic seabirds with rocks, thereby sustaining themselves. They got very good at this, and by the time the ship could return a week later, there was no tern left unstoned.

A doctor, a lawyer and an engineer are arrested during the French Revolution for the crime of being rich and are sent to the guillotine.
The executioner brings the doctor up the steps first.
“How do you wish to die Monsieur?”
“I wish to die with honor” replies the doctor. This means that he goes into the guillotine head first with no blindfold, so he can face the blade that will end his life. So in, face up, he goes.
The executioner pulls the cord, the blades falls… and stops halfway down. The executioner being a superstitious man exclaims, “Monsieur, God must want you to live. We cannot execute you. You are free to go.”
Next comes the lawyer. “How do you wish to die Monsieur?”
“I wish to die with honor” replies the lawyer. So in he goes, no blindfold, face up.
The executioner pulls the cord, the blades falls… and again stops halfway down.
“Monsieur, God must want you to live. We cannot execute you. You are free to go,” says the executioner.
Next comes the engineer. “How do you wish to die Monsieur?” The engineer, being no fool, replies, “I too wish to die with honor.” And so, in he goes, no blindfold, face up.
The executioner reaches for the cord, unsure what will happen next, when the engineer says, “Wait! I see the problem
