bungee business
Alice and Frank were Bungee jumping one day.
Alicesays to Frank, "You know we could make a lot of money running our
own
Bungee-jumping business inMexico."
Frank thinks this is a great idea, so they pool their money and buy
everything they need: a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc.
They travel toMexicoand begin to set up on the square. As they are
constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble. Slowly, more and
more
people gather to watch them at work.
When they had finished, there was such a crowd, they thought it would be
a
good idea to give a demonstration, soAlicejumps.
She bounces at the end of the cord, but when she comes back up, Frank
notices that she has a few cuts and scratches. Unfortunately, Frank
isn't
able to catch her and she falls again, bounces, and comes back up again.
This time, she is bruised and bleeding.
Again, Frank misses her.Alicefalls again and bounces back up. This
time,
she comes back pretty messed up -- she's got a couple of broken bones
and is
almost unconscious.
Luckily, Frank finally catches her this time and says, "What happened???
Was
the cord too long????"
Barely able to speak,Alicegasps, "No, the Bungee cord was fine...it
was
the crowd...What the HELL is a Pinata?!"
