Good Afternoon,

I was thinking back to my college days and all of the things that I had learned. The following joke reflects some of the learning that I learned. (Obviously I didn't become a famous writer after that lame sentence that I just typed out.)

A visitor to a college paused to admire the new Hemingway Hall that had been built on campus.

"It's a pleasure to see a building named for Ernest Hemingway," he said.

"Actually," said his guide, "it's named for Joshua Hemingway. No relation."

The visitor was astonished. "Was Joshua Hemingway a writer, also?"

"Yes, indeed," said his guide. "He wrote a check."

That was a good one. If you're curious about other things that I and most students picked up during the ol' college days please feel free to gander at the Bits 'N' Bobs section and enjoy.

Trust me, I am very learned.

Mouthing Off,
Carl
