Reading For Fun
Deep in the back woods, a hillbilly"s wife went into labour in the middle of the night, and the doctor was called out to assist in the delivery. Since there was no electricity, the doctor handed the father-to-be a lantern and said, "Here. You hold this high so I can see what I am doing!"
Soon, a baby boy was brought into the world.
"Whoa there", said the doctor, "don"t be in such a rush to put that lantern down. I think there"s another one coming."
Sure enough, within minutes he had delivered a baby girl. "Hold that lantern up, don"t set it down ,there"s another one!" said the doctor.
Within a few minutes he had delivered a third baby. "No, don"t be in a hurry to put down that lantern, it seems there"s yet another one coming!" cried the doctor.
The father-to-be scratched his head in bewilderment and said to the doctor, "You reckon it might be the light that"s attractin" "em?"

A scientist was complaining to a fellow scientist that his colony of fruit flies, for some unknown reason, had never mated in his glass enclosure. Given that his experiment required several generations to complete, this was causing quite a problem. The visiting scientist told him that he had experienced a similar problem at his lab and it resulted from the slick glass walls of the enclosure. Apparently the flies mate while crawling along the glass walls of the enclosure.
"Your glass is too slick," he told him, "but I have just the remedy".
The second scientist asked for a bottle of table salt and some flour and water. He mixed the concoction and brushed it on the glass walls. The flies began crawling along the surface and mated immediately.
"My problem is solved," exclaimed the first scientist, "If only I had known that flies need monosodium glue to mate!"

One night, after closing time, a barman was sitting at his bar minding his own business, when a spectral hound floated in through the door. The barman, being an exceptionally cool kind of man, said, "Yeah, what do you want?"
The phantom hound explained, in a haunting voice, "I"ve lost my tail and cannot rest until a kindly barman stitches it back on."
At this request the barman stood back astonished and said to the phantom dog, "Sorry, but we don"t re-tail spirits at this time of night."

یادداشت های زیادی بین زمین و آسمان معلقند. از (سیمای مسیحایی 4) بگیر تا (حواریون شهید)ش. از (حافظه های دیواری 2) تا (حسینیه های شهر من). از (لاله به چهارده روایت) تا ....
گاهی نقص در عکس ها و طمع گرفتن عکس های بیشتر، گاهی وسواس در نوشتن و گاهی اصلا نداشتن فرصت قرار یک ماهه من با خودم را تا چند ماه عقب می اندازد. در این میان یکی از دوستان توصیه کرد که نمونه هایم را تک تک ارائه بدهم و دنبال سرجمع کردنش نباشم، به جایش زود به زود به روز کنم. و من هم که این روزها پیگیر قالب های دیگری از گلمیخ هستم و گمان می کنم این یادداشت های پراکنده جایی برای به هم پیوستن خواهند داشت، چنین می کنم تا ببینم روزگار چه بر سر گلمیخ خواهد آورد.
در کوچه های پشت باغ نادری سردری بود که برای رفع چشم زخم، زیبا ترین و صمیمی دستخط یک کاشی پز را در قالب آیه شریفه و إن یکاد پیش چشم عابرین به نمایش می گذاشت.
فرم عامیانه حروف در کنار هم خانواده ای دارای تفاهم را ایجاد کرده بود. بسیاری از ویژگی های خطوط عامیانه که در سایر نمونه ها مشاهده کرده بودم ، در این نمونه جمع بود. من به این کاشی زیاد نگاه کردم و برای امضای شخصی خودم هم از آن تاثیر گرفتم و شاید اگر این نمونه نبود، به این جمع بندی نمی رسیدم که حتما از خطوط عامیانه در امضا بهره ببرم. این حرف ها برای این بود که میزان علاقه و دین خودم را به این کاشی گفته باشم:
چند ماه بعد از عکاسی از این کاشی، وقتی دوباره برای احوالپرسی، به آن سری زدم دیدم با اسپری سیاه روی آن را کاملا پوشانده اند و البته بعد از چند هفته سردر و کاشی با هم خراب شدند.
کاشی بی ریایی که روزگاری اهل خانه ای را از چشم زخم در امان می داشت، خود از چشم زخم نوسازی ها در امان نماند. و من به این فکر می کنم که نگهداری از این نمونه های ناب چقدر برای صاحبان مناصب و کلید دارن مخازن زحمت و هزینه دارد؟
