Shepperd<mailto:shepperd AT austincc.edu> I don't have the data to "prove" this 
assumption, so may be completely wrong, but there are good reasons to expect 
that the percentage of people with violent tendencies in the military is 
approximately the same as the percentage of people with violent tendencies in 
the general population, 
holding constant age and gender. 

Saaaay - - I haven't heard about any more
"disgruntled postal employees"....although
there have been a few headlines about other
employees pushed past endurance ....

While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent which 
direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him 
up every morning.  She asked, "Does the sun rise in the North?" When another 
person jumped in and explained that the sun rises in the East (and has for 
some time), she shook her head and said, "Oh, I don't keep up with that 
stuff."

And then she voted.

  ===============

I used to work in technical support for a 24x7 call center. One day I got a 
call from an InDUHvidual who asked what hours the call center was open. I 
told him, "The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week." He 
responded, "Is that Eastern or Pacific time?" Wanting to end the call 
quickly, I said, "Pacific." 

And then he voted.

  ============

So my colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria when we 
overheard one of the administrative assistants talking about the sunburn she 
got on her weekend drive to the shore. She drove down in a convertible, but 
"didn't think she'd get sunburned because the car was moving."

And then she voted.

  ================

I was in a high school advanced physics class and the teacher was talking 
about a new military weapon that uses sonic waves on the battlefield to burst 
enemy soldier's chests.  One InDUHvidual in the class spoke up and said, 
"Well that's stupid! Why don't they just wear headphones?"

And a few years later, he voted.

=============

My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car. It's designed to cut through a 
seat-belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the passenger side door's map 
pocket.

And then she voted.

=================

My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the cases were 
discounted 10%.  Since it was a big party, we bought two cases.  The cashier 
multiplied two times 10% and gave us a 20% discount.

And then he voted.

================

I was hanging out with a conservative friend of mine when we saw a woman walk 
by us with a nose ring attached to an earring by a chain.  My friend said, 
"Wouldn't the chain rip out every time she turned her head?"  I had to
explain to her that a person's nose and ear remain the same distance apart no 
matter which way the head is turned.

And then she voted.

===============

I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area.  So I went to the 
lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up. 
She smiled and told me not to worry because they were trained 
professionals and I was in good hands.  "Now," she asked me, "has your plane 
arrived yet?"

And then she voted.
