A Spot of (Realistic) Humor!

I have been told many times that I am too serious, "about everything." In fact...this is quite untrue.  I do have a sense of humor, and do appreciate it from others.  My brand of humor is simply unique...:-) 

Anyway, I thought I would share this...which, being a library clerk, I found highly amusing..


Since I work in a library, this just struck a chord.  It is almost unbelievable the things that public materials and provided equipment are subjected to.  That especially includes ones that people take home--like Library Cards!  I think maybe a sticker with these kinds of warnings should be put on each and every one.  Just a small number of the most damaging things library cards handed to me have undergone:
  1. Chewed by a boxer puppy,
  2. Run over by a truck,
  3. Used to open a locked front door,
  4. Subjected to a scissors experiment by a four year old, and... 
  5. Ready for the last?  Left on a stove. 
These are just the ones that have undergone structual damage.  I really do not even want to know about the ones that come caked in dirt, or grease, or other unidentifiable goo...  I wonder if people have ever considered why librarians always keep a bottle of hand sanatizer on their desks? 

Just a rhetorical question...what are the cards on your keychain and wallet like?
