LAUGH LINES

Caught on Camera: “Police in Washington, D.C., are now using cameras to catch drivers who go through red lights .... Many congressmen opposed the use of the red light cameras, incorrectly assuming they were being used for surveillance at local brothels.” (Dennis Miller)

Just for Laughs: “According to a Nevada animal psychologist, dogs can laugh. They say dogs have a high-pitch laugh that humans cannot hear, but that dogs do actually laugh. They didn’t say when dogs laugh, but I’m guessing it’s when they see you walking behind them picking up stuff with that pooper-scooper [and thinking], ‘He’s saving it!’” (Jay Leno)

You Don’t Say: “According to a new study on what to never say to your mate, they say the No. 1 thing you should never say to a man is: ‘You’re just like your father.’ ... They say that’s the worst thing [a woman] can say to a guy--especially if you say it in bed.” (Leno)
