Re: OT:Humor - 50 Fun Things to Do in an Elevator
True story: While on a tour of the Sudan Mines in Tower, Minnesota, a ride in a mining elevator is necessary to descend the 1/2 mile underground to the level where the tour begins. The elevator rocks back and forth, and the door is somewhat questionable. The elevator is also sloped back at an angle. As the packed elevator is in motion, rocking and swaying, and as the levels fly by, a certain passenger (who was in front of the rest) looked at the others who are obviously more than a bit uneasy with the ride and exclaimed loudly while jumping up and down, Wwwhhhooo Hhhooo! We are on an express elevator straight to hell - Goin' Down! One of the other passengers almost passed out, while most of others seemed to turn ghostly white... I figured that was the most that I could get away with without getting mobbed. :-) Gidd wrote: ** - Make racing car noises when anyone gets on or off. - Blow your nose and offer to show the contents of your kleenex to other passengers. - Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering: Shut up, dammit, all of you just shut UP! - Whistle the first seven notes of It's a Small World incessantly. - Sell Girl Scout cookies. - On a long ride, sway side to side at the natural frequency of the elevator. - Shave. - Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside ask: Got enough air in there? - Offer name tags to everyone getting on the elevator.
