The match
was over and the team captain, who had muffed three
easy goals shots, came over the manager and said,
You'll have to excuse me if I dash off, chief. I've
got a plan to catch and I don't want to miss it.'
Of you go, the,' said the manager. And better luck
with the plane.'

The
angry captain snarled at the referee. What would happen
if I called you a blind bastard who couldn't make
a correct decision to save his life?'
It would be
a red card for you.'
And if I didn't say it but only thought it?'
That is different. If you only thought it but didn't
say it, I couldn't do a thing.'
Well, we'll leave it like that, then, shall we?' smiled
the captain.

One
night, some miles out in the Channel, the captain
of a fishing smack went below with his crew for supper,
leaving the wheel in the charge of a very inexperienced
cabin boy. Before going below, the skipper assured
the lad, Don't worry, son, you'll be all right. Just
steer by that start up there.' Unfortunately, the
cabin boy soon ran the ship off course so the star
in question lay astern instead of ahead. Panic stricken,
the lad shouted down, Hey, Skipper, come and find
us another star, I've passed the first one!'

himself one man short on the eve of a big race, and
he persuaded a non-sailing acquaintance to stand in
for the missing crew member. As the yacht set off
on the first leg of the race, the skipper yelled,
Let go that jib-sheet!' What are you talking about!'

thing!'

A
large firm of importers was in need of qualified accountant
to take over the financial side of the business. The
managing director insisted that they hire only a one-armed
man. Why on earth should we hire a one-armed man?'
asked the puzzled personal manager.
'Because,' said the managing director, I'm, tea up
with always getting financial advice which begins,
"Well, on the one hand but then again, on the
other hand......."

Some

like the one who said, Miss Somers, please make a
dozen copies of this circulate the one with the fewest
mistakes.'

he didn't get round to it until near 4:45. His secretary

annoyed, she handed the letter over for signature

a week and let you be the secretary!'
I don't think that would work,' said the boss. 1 could
never drink that much coffee.'
