I Left My Heart in Mexico City (Almost)

A member of a Mexican courier team transporting a donor heart between hospitals for transplant took a misstep while removing the cooler containing the (wrapped) organ from the helicopter in which it had been flown, causing the heart to spill out on to the ground. Apparently, the team was still able to get the heart to its destination in a usable condition. (There was no indication of whether the transplant was successful.)

Oh, those Mexicans. All that reminds me of another unfortunate event between two Mexicans, and you Overlay, as a cruciverbalist will appreciate this.

Once upon a time, there was a rather famous flute & harp duo named Cisco & Pancho. They had gotten together when they were grad students at Juilliard, and had made quite a name for themselves on the American concert circuit. Soon, they had opportunities to travel abroad. They performed throughout Europe, and were a great success there. They followed this with a tour of the Far East. While they were in Hong Kong, they stayed in a luxurious hotel across the bay from the hall where they were playing. Being rather weary from all their travelling, they decided to take a short nap at the hotel before their performance. They unfortunately had forgotten to set their alarm clock, and when they woke up, they discovered that they only had an hour to get cleaned up, dressed, and over to the concert hall. They scrambled to get ready, got their stuff together, and went down to the hotel lobby to try to get a cab. But traffic at that time of day was very bad, and besides, none of the hotel's limos were available at the time. The desk clerk suggested that they could get to the hall by sampan, since they were located on the bay. So Cisco & Pancho grabbed their music and their instruments, and booked a ride with a local sampan owner. When they got to the other side, they rushed out of the boat and into the hall. Cisco got his flute out and began to warm up. But Pancho realized that his instrument was missing, and began to get very worried. When his partner asked him what was wrong, Pancho replied: "I left my harp in sampan, Cisco."

Oh not "It's a long way to tip a rarey." (Also part of my collection. :ThmbUp: ) Do you have the " no wick for the rested" one too. It is another of my favorites.

I truly did not know this. Las Vegas churches accept gambling chips? This may come as a surprise to those of you not living in Las Vegas , but there are more Catholic churches than casinos. Not surprisingly, some worshippers at Sunday services will give casino chips rather than cash when the basket is passed. Since they get chips from many different casinos, the churches have devised a method to collect the offerings. The churches send all their collected chips to a nearby Franciscan monastery for sorting and then the chips are taken to the casinos of origin and cashed this is done by the chip monks.

Nothing quite like an awful Shaggy Dog Story to brighten the day is there? Used to know a whole bunch of them. Could only remember them when I was drunk. Quit drinking twenty years ago, so now what do I do?
