I saw recently a joke, in which Giant Companies like the ones above were bragging: "I know how to find anything"...""I know what everybody likes"...etc.
Then the Electric Power Company said:"Keep talking [, stitches!]..."

"Abbott’s Booby (Papasula abbotti) is a large endangered seabird of the gannet family, Sulidae. Found normally only on and around Christmas Island (an Australian territory in the eastern Indian Ocean), it is the sole living member of the monotypic genus Papasula. This species is named for William Louis Abbott who discovered it on Assumption Island in 1892". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbott%27s_Booby. [MY NOTE] He made the correct Assumption that this was a new species to science. |
