Say you can't afford to have music piped in to your office? I just discovered a way you can get it, absolutely free. All you do is call a government department, any one, and chose the option to speak to a representative. Then turn on your speakerphone and hang up the receiver. You will have hours of soothing music, and no one will bother you. bob

Human Psychology! There is a hotel in Galveston,Texas that is built out over the Gulf of Mexico via a pier. The hotel was having a horrendous problem with broken windows because people were fishing out of their room windows. It seems that the lead weights they were using on their lines would break the window panes as they retrieved the lines. Would anyone like to guess how they solved the problem?
