 Two men were standing at a bar.  One man turned to the other and said,
"I'll bet you $100 that I can bite my left eye."  The wager was accepted, and
the man popped out his glass eye and bit it.
 "Now," he said,"I'll give you a chance to win your money back.  I'll
bet you another $100 that I can bite my right eye."
 "He can't have two glass eyes," thought the other man, and he plunked
down his money.  Then the first man took out his false teeth and bit his
right eye.

 Scientific reasearch has proven that a fish is susceptible to
seasickness.  Artificial "storm waves" made in a glass bowl have resulted in
seasick goldfish.  And in the Mediterranean Sea, fish weighing from 2 to 70
pounds became just as ill from the roaring waves when kept aboard ship as any
passenger or member of the crew.
