From: Beth Dubeck <bdubeck@MIT.EDU>
>There was a competition to cross the English Channel doing only the
>breaststroke. Just three women entered the race: a brunette, a redhead,
>and a blonde.
>
>After approximately 14 hours the brunette staggered up on the shore and
>was declared the fastest breaststroker.
>
>About 40 minutes later the redhead crawled up on the shore and was
>declared to be the second place finisher.
>
>Nearly 48 hours after that, the blonde finally came ashore and promptly
>collapsed in front of the worried onlookers.
>
>When the reporters asked why it took her so long to complete the race, she
>replied, "I don't want to sound like I'm a sore loser, but I think those
>two other girls were using their arms."
