One day a very rich man was counting his money when he got a very important phone call and he had to leave in a hurry. In his haste he left a one hundred dollar bill on the table. When he came home he noticed the money was missing and he asked the two only other people in the house what happened. The maid said she saw the bill on the table while dusting the library and she hid it under the book.

A famous motorcycle racing rider has taken delivery of his brand new turbo charged motor bike. He "flies" down the track at a fantastic speed of 840 mph, hair streaming behind in the slip stream.
