BARRY HILTON ON STUPIDITY

I have no idea if this really comes from Barry Hilton but this is a copy of an email that was being circulated.

Barry Hilton on stupidity

Dof people should have to wear signs that just say, "I'M DOF." That way
you wouldn't rely on them, would you? You wouldn't ask them anything. It
would be like, "Excuse me... oops, never mind. Didn't see your sign."

It's like before my boeta and I moved. Our house was full of boxes and
there was a Pickfords truck in our driveway. My neighbor comes over and
choons, "Hey, you moving?" "Noooit bru. We just pack our stuff up once or twice
a week to see how many boxes it takes. Here's your sign!"

A couple of months ago I went fishing with a mate of mine, we pulled his
boat into the ramp, I lifted up this big whiting and this idiot on the
ramp goes, "Hey, you catch all those fish?" "Nooit cuzzi. Talked 'em into
giving up. Here's your sign."

I was watching one of those animal shows on the Discovery Channel. There
was a guy inventing a shark bite suit. And there's only one way to test it.
"Alright Jimmy, you got that shark suit on, it looks good... They want
you to jump into this pool of sharks, and you tell us if it hurts when they
bite you." "Well, all right, but hold my sign. I don't wanna lose it".

Last time I had a flat tyre, I pulled my car into a petrol station. The
'pomp jockey' walks out, looks at my car, looks at me, and I SWEAR he
choons, "Tyre go flat?" I couldn't resist. I said, "Nooit Baba. I was
driving around and those other three just swelled up on me. Here's your
sign."

I was trying to sell my 'jammie' about a year ago. A guy came over to
the house and drove the car around for about 45 minutes. We get back to the
house, he gets out of the car, reaches down and grabs the exhaust pipe,
then says, "Jislaaik, that's hot!" See? If he'd been wearing his sign, I
could have stopped him!

I learned to drive an 18 wheeler in my days in the 'mag'. Wouldn't you
know I misjudged the height of a bridge. The truck got stuck and I couldn't
get it out no matter how I tried. I radioed in for help and eventually a
local cop shows up to take the report. He went through his basic
questioning...ok.. no problem. I thought sure he was clear of needing a sign...until
he asked "So..is your truck stuck?" I couldn't help myself. I looked at
him, looked back at the rig and then back to him took my sign off and chooned, "No. I'm delivering a bridge. Here's your sign."

I stayed late at work one night and a co-worker looked at me and
chooned, "Are you still here?" I replied, "No. I left about 10 minutes ago.
Here's your sign."

Anybody you know, need a sign today? Send this to all your chinas! The
next time someone says something dof, you can ask them: Where's your sign?
