True And Amusing Anecdotess


Hello

Bizarre or funny things that really have happened!

THE clerk of the village of Wardsville, Ont., received a letter containing the following request: "... The Culture and Recreation subcommittee of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario suggested that it would be appropriate to write to all the municipal clerks and ask each of them to submit a short brief or letter concerning the Arts in their municipality - how are they regarded, how are they funded, what effect do they have on the life or the economy of the municipality, and so on."
The clerk replied: Dear Sir: Reference your letter requesting information on the Arts in our municipality. We are pleased to advise that we have four: Art Harold Art Morgan Art Marks Art Sweet They are all extremely well regarded in the community. They are mostly funded by Old Age Security Pension and Canada Pension, and all contribute to the economy of the municipality in their day-to-day living.

True And Amusing Anecdotes


Hello

Bizarre or funny things that really have happened!

VISITING a government office building in Ottawa, I entered an elevator full of civil servants. Being closest to the door, I pushed the button for the next floor. Nothing happened. I pushed again. The elevator did not move. Then a voice called from the rear, "Try pushing in triplicate." I gave the button a quick triple jab. It worked.
