* 34. On a break from shooting his latest film, Sean Penn flies to Hawaii to visit his favorite relatives: two spinster aunts who have lived together for decades.
Not only are they wonderful ladies, but they’ve done well in business together–right out of their basement–by selling authentic Hawaiian foods like macadamia nuts and poi and spam to customers around the world.
When Sean Penn gets to their house, however, he immediately calls the cops because he smells something bad at the front door. The police break in and make the tragic discovery that both women are dead from carbon monoxide poisoning. To get out of the cops’ way, the actor goes down to the basement–but that just makes him even more distraught because all the food there is infested with mice and vermin.
Soon, the CDC arrives, and neighbors are treated to the sight of health inspectors carrying out living and dead mice covered with remnants of Hawaiian food. One neighbor turns to the other and says, “You know, this makes me think of an operetta.”
“An operetta? What on earth are you talking about?”
“Well,” says the first guy. “haven’t you ever heard of `The Poi-Rats of Penn’s Aunts?”

* 33. A guy calls his best friend after overdoing it the night before. He says, “Hey bro, I need one of your patented hangover cures.”
“Sure,” says the friend. “Tell me what you drank, and I’ll tell you what to take.”
So the guy tells him, and the friend says, “No problem. You just need the Fairy Tale Cure.”
“The Fairy Tale Cure? What’s that?”
“You take a thick slice of gouda cheese, and around it you wrap a thin slice of smoked salmon. You eat that, and then you take three aspirin. That’s it.”
“That’s it?” says the guy. “Cheese, salmon, aspirin—great! But why is it called the `Fairy Tale Cure’?”
“Because,” says the friend, “haven’t you ever heard of Gouda, Lox and the Three Bayers?”

* 32. When Uber was in its planning stages, the two founders were still college kids, and they had an even bigger idea than just creating a livery car service. First of all, they wanted all the dispatches coming from one central station, and that station would be located on a blimp hovering over the city like a roaming GPS. Also, the Uber guys wanted the cars to be able to warn drivers if they were approaching a dangerous place. For example, a car in New York would make a deep growl whenever you drove towards a high-crime zone. In the midwest, you’d be warned of an impending dust storm by the car making a loud hissing noise.
“I think we have amazing ideas,” says one Uber dude to the other, “but will anyone listen to us?”
“What do you mean?”
“We’re just a couple of frat boys. How do we get the world to take our ideas seriously?”
“It’s all in the marketing,” says the other. “We tell the truth, but we do it with a catchy slogan.”
“A catchy slogan?” says the friend. “We’re two college kids talking about putting a homing station in a blimp to track limousines that hiss at you in a dust storm. What slogan could we possibly use?”
“Let me think,” says the friend. “Aha! I’ve got it! Uber: One Station, Undergrad, in Dirigible, with Livery and Dust Hiss for All.”
