This amuses the hell out of me...

"Something wonderful happened when I was on the bus last week. I think it was Thursday but I might be wrong. Anyway, I was on my way home from college and I have a seat in the back of the bus looking rearwards. I'm sitting there thinking about nothing in particular when out of the corner of my eye I notice something out of place. Sitting on the seat opposite to me and a bit to my left is what appears to be a red onion, the type people put in salads. Anyway, just as I was leaning forward to investigate further, a woman comes along and SITS ON THE ONION!
I'm understandably excited. There's an onion riding the bus, and a woman just sat on it!
I sent a text message to my girlfriend to inform her of this fact. She was interested.
Anyway, I was sitting there waiting for the woman to notice that there was something amiss with where she was sitting, but she didn't! She was sitting on that onion for nearly 20 minutes and she didn't notice a damn thing!
So she gets off the bus a couple of stops before mine, and I look to see what sort of damage has been done to the onion, and that's when I realise it isn't an onion at all, but in fact a plum that had been sitting on the bus seat long enough for its skin to become shrivelled and onion looking. I left, pondering the meaning of this change."

Observations.

1: They found Elizabeth Smart alive. I'm still shocked.

2: Freedom fries. Yes, I've known about this stupid thing since yesterday, but a few things suddenly hit me today. One is this: wow, this sounds like when, in WWII, we renamed German stuff. Y'know, like "liberty cabbage" and all. The other is this: Germany was our enemy. Isn't France our ally?Of sorts, anyway, right?

3: Schizophrenia is damn hard to research. Well, not really, since there's a lot of stuff about it on-line, but it's hard to find stuff that doesn't sound exactly like the source you just used. Rawr.
