>On one fine sun shiny Saturday Al and
>Joe are bungee-jumping.
>Al says to Joe, "You know, we could make a lot of money running our own
>bungee-jumping service in Mexico."
>Joe thinks this is a great idea, so they pool their money and buy
>everything they'll need; a tower, an elastic cord and insurance.
>They travel to Mexico and begin to set up on the square.
>
>As they are constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble. Slowly,
>more and more people gather to watch them work.
>When they had finished constructing the tower there was such
>a crowd they thought it would be a good idea to give a demonstration. So
>Joe jumps. He bounces at the end of
>the
>cord, but when he comes back up, Al notices he has a few cuts and
>scratches.
>Unfortunately, Al isn't able to catch him, and he falls again, bounces
>and comes back up again. This time, he is bruised and bleeding. Again Al
>misses him. Joe falls again and bounces back up. This time he comes back
>pretty messed up-he's got a couple of broken bones and is almost
>unconscious.
>Luckily, Al catches him and says, "What happened? Was the cord too
>long?"
>Barely able to speak, Joe gasps, "No, the bungee cord was fine, it was
>the crowd. What the hell is a pinata?"
