a few sprinkles of genius with a chance of doom.

Jieren took a leak on my dress pants, suit jacket, dress shirt, and my silk ties. We had elections today for KDR, and I didn't the the positions I wanted (although, I have a feeling things turned out better this way), I'm tired and stressed; however, despite all that, I'm still very at peace with the current situation of things. I'm pleased with that. Church was pretty good today, even though I hated having to wake up early for it; I hurried back afterwards to hit up elections, and 6 hours of that just completely wore me out. Tomorrow is going to be a long day, but every minute that passes means every minute I am closer to thanksgiving break (of which I am so desperately craving). I am so burnt out I need to not think about school for a bit. In other news, I think laura and I may finally get to meet up for lunch again; we had planned it last week but our usually conflicting schedule stepped in the way so i'm glad i get to take the rain check tomorrow. Also, the KPL mixer last night was a success (even though I spent a large portion of it watching the epic battle between fresno state and usc ^_^) Although, working the bar during the mixer meant I was unable to go to my friends lauren and her sister's party, which was a total bummer. Oh well. I think i'm gonna go get some Zs so I'm not an undead tomorrow. Oh yea, jotb to follow...

Two friends, each with a deformity, used to go to a bar together. One of the guys had a humpback and the other had clubfoot.

One night, the man with the humpback realized he had to get up early the next morning, so he said goodbye and decided to take the shortcut across the graveyard to his house.

Just as he was in the middle of the graveyard, the clock downtown struck midnight, and suddenly the devil jumped out from behind a gravestone and confronted him. "Nyah, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah!" yelled the devil, "Do you know who I am?"

"Y-y-yes, y-y-you're the d-devil!" stammered the terrified man.

"Nyah, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah! And what's that on your back?"

"Th-that's nothing, it's j-j-just my hump!" came the frightened reply.

"Can I have it?" asked the devil.

"Y-y-yes, t-take anything y-you want!" said the man.

The devil held out his hands and the hump flew off the man's back, and the devil was left holding it. The poor man ran back to his house, dove under his covers, and figured it must have been a nightmare.

The next morning, though, he woke up, and discovered that he had no hump. For the first time he could remember, he stood up straight, and walked around straight as a pole all day.

That evening, he went to the bar, and his friend saw him and immediately asked whether he had had surgery. The former humpback told him exactly what had happened the night before, so the man with the clubfoot figured that if he walked in the graveyard at midnight, the devil would come and take his clubfoot away.

That night, the clubfoot was at the graveyard at 11:30. By 11:40, he was looking at his watch every few seconds impatiently, and by midnight his arms were folded and he was tapping his foot, waiting for something to happen.

Finally, on the stroke of midnight, the devil leapt out from behind a gravestone. "Nyah, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah!" yelled the devil, "Do you know who I am?"

"Of course I do," said the man, with a hint of irritation. "You're the devil."

"Nyah, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah!" yelled the devil, "And what's that on your back?"

"On my back? There's nothing on my back!" screamed the man, pointing at his foot.

"Here," answered the devil, "Have a hump!"
