------- Forwarded foolishness follows -------
A fellow is going on a tour of a factory that produces various latex
products.
At the first stop, he's shown the machine that manufactures baby-bottle
nipples. The machine makes a loud hiss-pop noise.
"The hiss is the rubber being injected into the mold," explains the
guide. "The popping sound is a needle poking a hole in the end of the
nipple."
Later, the tour reaches the part of the factory where condoms are
manufactured. The machine makes a noise: 'Hiss. Hiss. Hiss. Hiss-pop"
"Wait a minute" says the man taking the tour. "I understand what the
'hiss, hiss,' is, but what's that 'pop' every so often?"
"Oh, it's just the same as in the baby-bottle nipple machine," says the
guide. "It pokes a hole in every fourth condom."
"Well, that can't be good for the condoms"
"Yeah, but it's great for the baby-bottle nipple business"
