Joke of the Day #5

一个风大的日子,我驾着车子在马路上走着。
突然,有个女人从路边冲了出来,在风中追着什么。啊,一条毛茸茸的小狗。
来不及刹车,毛茸茸的小狗一下卷到了车底。我一个急刹车,含泪向那位太太致歉。
“不要紧,别哭!”她说,“我家还有好几顶这样的假发。”

感谢上帝我的同事看不懂中文字,要不然的话她一定把这个笑话还没读完就哭了! 我的那个同事太爱她的迷你Chijuajua, 而那条狗呢,所到之处就在她身边或者她再抱着它呀! 如果我们编写一个关于那种把宠物看作是人类的人, 这个话题咋样?

I first wasn´t shure about the wig but after the helping comment saying that it´s "...the womans wig." I was quite shure, what wig meant but not 100% so I did the google translation to confirm it ;-) about Brainiac: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainiac:_Science_Abuse there you find every thing you need to know about it (and hopefully to make you wanne see it if you get the chance) :-)

No, the driver thinks it's a hairy puppy, but it's actually the woman's wig. :)

Bazza, I wish I had an edit button. I would erase all my comments. Seriously, I think it would disrupt the spontaneity of interaction. But a flash window saying 'Are you sure you want to post such a comment' yes / NO! , would be OK. Though, I enjoy seeing your "peep-show" :) Logorrhea jacta est

Perhaps the main reason I prefer posting on the forum is because it's got an edit button. Not only to correct my own errors occasionally, but also for solid educational reasons. It can allow anyone's accidental misguidance to be corrected back at the source, not way down the page after you've already memorised that erroneous instruction and dealt with several rounds of confusingly debated corrections and eventually found and identified the place where consensus was reached. Making and correcting one's errors is an essential part of learning. Though in practice we still don't correct very much, knowing that we can changes everything. In how many classrooms does every spontaneous student blunder become googled against your name for posterity, with no power to correct it, ever. Therefore I claim that the "blog style" of disempowered posting, with no means of recovery by correction and no incentive to take big risks, is educationally unsound.
