Good One

This was given to me the other day by one of my cohorts in crime--Dr. Charlie Bass.

After having dug to a depth of 1000 meters last year, Scottish scientists found traces of cooper wire dating back 1000 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 1000 years ago.

Not to be outdone by the Scots, in the weeks that followed, English scientists dug to a depth of 2000 meters and shortly after headlines in the UK read: "English archaeologists have found traces of 2000 year old cooper wire and have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network a thousand years earlier than the Scots."

One week later, Texas newspapers reported the following:

"After digging as deep as 5000 meters in West Texas, scientists have found absolutely nothing. They have therefore concluded that 5000 years ago Texas inhabitants were already using wireless technology."

DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS!
