Hidden Defects
A certain prominent Roman,
according to Plutarch, was harsh
ly censured by his friends for di
vorcing his wife.
■‘Was she not fair, was she not
chaste?” they inquired.
Holding out his shoe, the Ro
man asked them whether it was
not new and well made.
After examining it, they re
plied that it was.
“Yet,” observed he, “none of
you can tell me where it pinches
me.”

The news reporter covering a
special trial flight was enjoying
the panorama spread out before
him when a flock of parachutists
floated by.
“Going to join us?” asked one.
“Nothing doing,” snapped back
the reporter. “I’m quite happy
right here.”
“Suit yourself,” came the faint
reply. “We’re the crew.”
