| For programmers, maybe they don't like getting bits stuck in their
teeth. Also, they prefer larger meals - in a word, two bytes is
insufficient.

They avoid programmers because of the risk of
catching a code. In the node.

| Because they can't C.

| Motor mechanics because they grind their teeth.

965.5 | May be a little backwards. | RICKS::PHIPPS | | Wed May 20 1992 10:58 | 1 |
| I would have said, motor mechanics because of the grease. 8^)

| In _Sweeney_Todd,_the_Demon_Barber_of_Fleet_Street_, there's a song called
something like "Have a Bit of Priest" which has some jokes like this...
It's priest. Try a bit of priest.
Is it any good?
Sir, it's too good, at least.
Then again, they don't commit sins of the flesh,
So it's pretty fresh...
...the clergy is really too coarse and too mealy.
Try actor, that's compacter.
Yes, and always arrives overdone...
How about some tinker?
Something pinker.
Some potter?
Something hotter.
Some Tailor?
Paler.
Locksmith?

| Why don't cannibals eat old maids and old bachelors?
They hate leftovers.

| Why would a health-conscious cannibal decline to eat H. Ross Perot?
Too rich.

| Re .9
Was that politically correct?
Does it offend against the Conference policies?
Does it matter?
:-) :-)
Why won't a cannibal eat a pound of politician's brains?
Either:
They've never been used so they're too expensive
Or:
You have to kill too many politicians to get a pound of brains.
