[lfjokes] The Bungy Jumpers...

Al and Joe are bungee-jumping one day. Al says to Joe, "You know, we 
could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping service in 
Mexico." Joe thinks this is a great idea, so they pool their money and buy 
everything they'll need; a tower, an elastic cord, insurance, etc. They
travel to Mexico and 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. So Al jumps. He bounces at the end of the cord, but 
when he comes back up Joe notices that he has a few cuts and scratches. 
Unfortunately, Joe isn't able to catch him, and he falls again, bounces and 
comes back up again. This time, he is bruised and bleeding. Again Joe 
misses him. Al falls again and bounces back up. This time he comes back 
pretty messed up-he's got a couple of broken bones and is almost 
unconscious.

Luckily, Joe finally catches him this time and says, "What happened? Was 
the cord too long?"

Barely able to speak, Al gasps, "No, the cord was fine, but what's a pinata?"
