"Politics"<br /><br />Just in time for the elections, a group of<br />etymologists has discovered the two root<br />words of the word 'politics'.<br /><br />Greek polu-, from polus, much, many<br /><br />Tick: Any of numerous small bloodsucking<br />parasitic arachnids of the family Ixodidae,<br />many of which transmit febrile diseases,<br />such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever and<br />Lyme disease.<br /><br />Make your own conclusions.<br />_________________________________________________<br />"Army of the Lord"<br /><br />A friend was in front of me coming out of church<br />one day, and as always the preacher was standing<br />at the door shaking hands as the congregation<br />departed. He grabbed my friend by the hand and<br />pulled him aside.<br /><br />The preacher said to him, "You need to join the<br />Army of the Lord!"<br /><br />My friend replied, "I'm already in the Army of the<br />Lord, Preacher."<br /><br />The preacher questioned, "How come I don't see<br />you except for Christmas and Easter?"<br /><br />He whispered back, "I'm in the secret service."
