Billy-Bob walks into a bar and says, "Bartender, one round for everyone, on me!"
The bartender says, "Well, seems you're in a really good mood tonight, hm?"
Billy-Bob says, "Oh, you can bet on it! I just got hired by the city to go around and remove all the money from parking meters. I start on Monday!" The bartender congratulates him and proceeds to pour the round.
Monday evening arrives. Billy-Bob comes back into the bar and says, "Bartender, two rounds for everyone, on me!"
The bartender says, "Well now! If you're so happy just over having this new job, I can just imagine how happy you'll be when you get your paycheck!"

Edison phonograph

In 1877, Thomas Alva Edison, though this date is often given as the date of a finished model of his first phonograph, may have actually only made a sketch. Some correspondence in Sep 1877 suggests Edison was at work on his ideas for what became his cylinder phonograph, though construction of a working model may not have begun until 4 Dec, according to the diary of one of Edison's aides. Indeed, Edison did not file for the patent until 24 Dec 1877. The idea came to him while working on a telegraph transmitter, when he noticed that when the tape of the machine was played at high speed, it gave off a noise resembling spoken words. After experimenting with a needle attached to the diaphragm of a telephone receiver to prick paper tape to record a message, his idea evolved to using a stylus on a tinfoil cylinder.«[Image: Sketch dated 20 Nov 1877 given to machinist John Kruesi to make the world's first cylinder phonograph.]
