Quips by Jack Stapleton, Jr.

*The idea might not win the Nobel Peace Prize, but maybe the best way to stop violence in the Middle East is to raise the price of bombs.

*After the Enron scandal and now the W.R. Grace asbestos fiasco, business schools across the country need to add a required course known as “How to Hide Your Company’s Assets.”

*Missouri school officials are having to postpone textbook purchases after getting an extra $135 million in state aid. Sounds like someone flunked basic arithmetic.

*An optimist is someone who believes the state has such unbearably high humidity because it saves Missourians from having to smell the debris from flooded rivers.

*Missouri officials have devised another state lottery to be available in bars and taverns, making it difficult to know if a patron has won a prize or just stayed too long.

*When someone says ‘there ought to be a law against that,’ chances are he hasn’t seen Missouri’s revised statute books lately.

*If the state slogan that the will of the people shall be the law of the land is true, who’s against better highways?
