Tuesday's
child is full of grace. Our ancestors saw Tuesday as a day of war. One stem of the word Tuesday is Tyr, who was the Norse god of courage. The Romans also named this day
after their war god Mars. The French retain this theme in their word for Tuesday, Mardi.

Crazy Aussie
A drunk driver tried to avoid arrest by leaping into the back of his
moving car during a chase in the Australian outback.
Police in the Northern Territory town of Katherine were stunned when they realised the 24-year-old driver had abandoned the controls and jumped on to the
back seat with his three passengers in an apparent attempt to fool officers. The runaway car continued for 150 metres at 25mph before police on foot ran it down and applied the brakes.
Police said the driver
panicked when they tried to pull him over for a random breath test.

Out of the Mouths of Babes
Repeat after Me Mrs Johnson invited some people over for supper. At the table, she turned to their seven year old daughter Martha and said, 'Would you like to say
the blessing?'
'I wouldn't know what to say', Martha replied. 'Just say what you hear Mummy say', Mrs Johnson answered
Martha bowed her head and said, 'Lord, why on earth did I invite all these
people to dinner?'

Dentist
I knew a dentist, Anthony, who used to frequent the 'The Europa'
pub in Molesey, Surrey in the 1980's. Anthony always worked long hours and one day he came into the back bar particularly
tired and a little distracted. It was half term and all of his patients had been children and he explained how difficult it is to get them to keep their mouths open so that he could carry out a 'check-up'
. His
last patient of the day had been an adult and he was embarrassed to tell us that he had said to the man, 'Oh good at last a big mouth to deal with.'
The man's
gurgling sound alerted Anthony to his verbal
mistake.
American Army Soldier Story
Fifty-one years ago, Herman James, a North Carolina mountain man, was drafted by the Army.
On his first
day in basic training, the Army issued him a comb. That afternoon the Army barber sheared off all his hair.
On his second day, the Army issued Herman a toothbrush. That afternoon the Army dentist yanked seven
of his teeth.
On the third day, the Army issued him a jock strap. The Army has been looking for Herman for 51 years.
