It\'s A Gamble! (Humour)

This man was sitting quietly reading his paper
one morning, peacefully enjoying himself,
when his wife sneaks up behind him and whacks
him on the back of his head with a huge frying pan.

The man says, "What was that for?"

His wife replies, "What was that piece of paper
in your pants pocket with the name
Marylou written on it?"

He says, "Oh honey, remember two weeks ago
when I went to the horse races? Marylou
was the name of one of the horses I bet on."

The wife looked all satisfied, apologises,
and goes off do work around the house.

Three days later he is once again sitting in
his chair reading and she repeats
the frying pan swatting.

He angrily yells, "What the hell was
that for this time?"

His wife replies, "Your horse called."

Re: Cheating

( Were any of your teachers this clever!)


Claimed to be a True Story - if so, very clever

For anyone who ever tried or thought about cheating at Sydney University,
there were four students taking Organic Chemistry. They did so well on all
the quizzes, midterms and labs, etc., that each had an A so far for the
semester.

These four friends were so confident with the finals approaching that the
weekend before, they decided to go down to Canberra and party with some
friends there.

They had a great time. However, after all the hard partying, they slept all
day Sunday and didn't make it back to Sydney until early Monday morning -
the morning of their final exam!

Rather than taking the final then, they decided to find their professor
AFTER the exam and explain to him why they missed it. They explained that
they had gone to Canberra to do some research in the ANU archives for the
weekend with the plan to come back in time to study, but, unfortunately,
they had a flat tyre on the way back, didn't have a spare, and couldn't get
help for a long time. As a result, they only just arrived now! The
professor thought it over and then agreed they could make up their final
exam the following day.

The guys were elated and relieved. They studied hard that night - all night
- and went in the next day at the time the professor had told them. He
placed them in separate rooms and handed each of them a test booklet,
(which was out of 100 points) and told them to begin.


The first problem was worth (5) points. It was something simple about
free radical formation.

"Cool," they all thought in their rooms, "this is going to be easy."

Each finished the problem and then turned the page for the next question -
See below



















Question 2 (for 95 points): Which tyre was punctured?

Re: Cheating

heehee. My dad used to teach at a university. One bloke, bit thick, went in for an exam, and his questions included large tracts of textbooks, written verbatim, even down to papargraph changes and punctutation. Pages of it. The lecherers decided that he must have cheated. But he said he had a photographic memory. They toldim to sit the exam again, and he did the same again...
