I think this just may be the very first front page post that links to a single .gif file.

Last summer, down on Lake Isabella, located in the high desert, an hour east of Bakersfield, California, this dude, new to boating was having a problem. No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't get the brand new 22-ft. Bayliner to perform. It wouldn't get on a plane at all, and it was very sluggish in almost every maneuver, no matter how much power he applied.
After about an hour of trying to make it go, he putted over to a nearby marina. Maybe they could tell him what was wrong. A thorough topside check revealed everything was in perfect working order. The engine ran fine, the outdrive went up and down, the prop was the correct size and pitch. So, one of the marina guys jumped in the water to check underneath. He came up choking on water, he was laughing so hard.
Under the boat, still strapped securely in place was the trailer.

Umm, a 'thorough topside check' didn't reveal the straps holding the boat to the trailer?

Once I was walking in Santa Monica to the Vons. At the crosswalk a slightly unkempt man turned me to me and said: "Well you look like an intelligent guy." Being an intelligent guy I confirmed this statement and he proceeded to ask me if I was aware that "You can hear peoples thoughts through their footsteps." Not being a total dick, I replied that indeed, I was not aware of this fact. Hoping to keep the conversation going I asked him "Well what am I thinking?" I stomped around a bit for him on the sidewalk, loud enough so he could hear my feet pounding the pavement.
He paused for a brief second, rubbed his chin, and somewhat unsure of himself, said: "...you're wondering if Dupont is a good company to invest in?" And like I said before, I am not a total dick, so I shouted "Yes! That's exactly what I was thinking!" He grinned ear to ear and pointed at me.
"You the man," he said.
"No," I replied, "you the man."
And with that we parted.

I once met the man who purchased the very convertible that once carried John Wayne in a parade. It was the first car he owned. We talked for about half an hour, then at 9 in the evening he announced that it was his bedtime and left.
This all occurred during the screening of a John Wayne movie.
