Is it easier putting out fires?
1. Technically "Way No!" but actually "Yes", since the former is impossible.

2. No sweat! ...

Several years ago, our local newspaper reported on a county council meeting that was discussing the next year's budget. It quoted one councilman as asking why so many county departments needed "new trucks with four-wheel drive and wenches."

The News Quiz, a BBC Radio 4 program which does exactly what it says on the tin, reads out a clipping from a newspaper or magazine between each round. One from a local parish newsletter announced a talk in a neighbouring parish titled "Heaven and how to get there". Transport arranged from outside the Dog and Duck Inn.

A wench, I am told, is useful when one needs to turn the head of a dolt.

It's interesting how they've made photos resemble oil paintings. They've both faded to black around the edges and flattened the colour somehow.

That could all be done in any decent photo manipulation program like photoshop for example.
Lighting and camera settings can also produce some of the results.

I think it was John Stewart on the Daily Show who observed that America is named after Amerigo Vespucci, who first showed that Columbus' discoveries were a new landmass and not the east coast of Asia, and hence that there'd been a 50% chance that his country would be the United States of Vespuccia.

Teacher: Come here now!
Kid: But I already am here!

You can't argue with the logic. Wherever you are, you can always describe it as "here".
