Oh look, Chicken Thursday!
Before I share the latest entry in the FunBlog with you, I want to give a little reminder as to why I think it's fun (some of you will think "that's dumb" and you aren't wrong!)
Years ago I raced at our local speedway where my nickname was the Pastor of Disaster. Of the types of racing I did, my favorite was "Hit to Pass Demo Trucks". Basically the rules were that you could not pass the truck ahead of you unless you bumped, rubbed, spun, or made some other kind of contact with it. The same was true of the truck behind you. You can watch a video of a big wreck I was in (I'm in the blue #61 truck) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VdQksNbd_M It was great fun - and of course some people thought it was dumb.
That brings me to today's FunBlog entry - I think it's the same kind of good fun. You will find "Cars Fly" at:

Water Dorm
When I lived in a dorm, one of the favorite intramural sports was water fights. Dousing and bombarding one another with water from squirt guns, glasses, balloons, even wastebaskets. Since each room had a sink, there was endless ammunition. The most frequent target was the Resident Assistant.
Approaching his room one afternoon, he noticed his door was ajar. Looking up, he saw a pail of water balanced on the door's edge, ready to fall on him. As he took down the pail and emptied it into his sink, he thought, "Those crazy guys actually thought they could fool me with that old gag!"
It was then he realized we'd removed the drainpipe beneath the sink.

I'm still not sure if I understand ambiguity.

Ummm
You’re at a loss for words: don’t worry, maybe it’s just aphasia.

Warning Signs
One October, my wife and I spent a vacation on Washington's Olympic Peninsula. We were eager to visit the rain forests near the coast, but we heard that snow slides had made some of the roads impassable. Although apprehensive about the conditions we might run into, we drove on.
Sure enough, we had gone only a short way up the High Rain Forest road when we saw a sign: "Ice 10 miles."
Five miles farther on, there was another sign: "Ice 5 miles."
The next one was, "Ice 1/2 mile."
We practically crept that half-mile.
When we came to the last sign it was outside a small grocery, and it read, "Ice 75 cents."
