A man offers a girl in his office $1,000 to sleep with him. “I’ll put the money on the floor, you bend down, and I’ll be done by the time you pick it up,” he explains.
The girl consults her boyfriend who advises her to go ahead but to pick up the money really fast. Having not heard anything for an hour, the boyfriend calls her back.
“I can hardly walk, let alone make a phone call,” the girl says.
“What happened?” her boyfriend asks anxiously.
“He used $1 bills.”
Driverless trainsIn 1964, driverless trains first ran on the London Underground. Now, on the Victoria Line, once the Train Operator has closed the train doors and pressed the start buttons, the trains run automatically to the next station, responding to coded impulses transmitted through the track. The Victoria Line was the first new deep-level Underground line to be built across central London since the "tube boom" of 1905-07. It links Walthamstow in north east London with Brixton in south London. The line opened in stages between 1968 and 1971 penetrating areas of north and south London not previously served by the Underground |
