The Thai Airlines Human Resources Department is seeking trans-gendered flight attendants.  They hope to generate extra income.  If you can guess what the server is, your meal is free -- if you miss, you pay double.

Evading extensive security, a wharf rat somehow managed to stow away on an Alaskan Airlines 727 en route to Nome, but all ended well.  Before it could be caught, it wandered into the First Class Galley and became the “Ragout ala Rodant With Shallots.”

A giant container of 700,000 condoms shipped to Kuala Lumpur was recently stolen.  By the time police could trace them, they had been melted down into pucks for the Malaysian Olympic ice hockey team.

Lindsay Lohan and her mom have partnered in a new retail jewelry venture.  Should be successful because they carry no extensive inventory.  You point out what you want at another store and Lindsay delivers it to you the next day.

At New York’s annual Westminster Dog Show, the judges were particularly good this year.  The blue ribbon winner in the “Working Dogs” class was a Springer Spaniel who drives a cab in lower Manhattan.

WakiLeaks: History Declassified 2000 (Vol. One) is now available on Kindle for $2.99

Compiled from Bob's newsletter "Funnyside Up" published in 2000. This is a yuck and chuckle-filled stroll down memory lane to a time before the Bush administration had inflicted its damage -- a time before the search for WMDs and Osama bin Laden.
