The steaming hot Starbucks coffee splashed out of the green Styrofoam
cup, causing third degree burns to Tom=92s loins.  As he was screaming =
in
pain, Tom=92s Dodge Viper swerved and slammed into the Mustang.  The two
cars pulled over, and the two drivers got out.  The attractive woman
asked Tom for his insurance information, but Tom couldn=92t locate his
insurance card quickly.  Since he was in big hurry and couldn=92t find =
his
card, he decided to write her out a blank check to compensate for her
now wrecked and un-drivable car.  He used a folded-up IBD as a hard
surface to sign the blank check on.  Tom then got in his car and began
to drive off.  As he drove off, the woman shouted, =93Wait!  You need to
give me a lift!  I=92m in a hurry to get to the courthouse!  You=92re
leaving the scene of an accident!=94  Tom rolled down his window, looked
back at her, and replied, =93Better luck next time.=94   He then peeled =
off
amidst the black fumes of burning rubber.

After arriving at work, Tom realized that he left his IBD at the site of
the accident.  Unfortunately, all his spectacular stock picks were
circled on the IBD. =20

Excellent humor this list could use. Maybe a sequel some day about the
splashing coffee between Tom's legs :)

Tom, I thought you didn't like Starbucks!!!
=20
Driving to his office this morning on Interstate I - 95,  Tom looked
over his shoulder to the left and there was an attractive woman in a
brand new Mustang, with her face up next to the rear view mirror putting
on her eye makeup.

He looked away for a few seconds, and when Tom looked back, there she
was halfway over in his lane, still working on her eye liner. It scared
him so bad that he dropped his electric shaver, which knocked the Krispy
Creme out of  his other hand.

In all the confusion of trying to straighten out the car with his knees
against the steering wheel, it knocked his cell phone away from his ear
which fell into his Starbucks coffee between his legs, ruined the phone
and disconnected an
important call to WON.
