Not all humor has taste.

PRIDAYKENTUCKY

"SHIRT-ii» 32275000 ‘

 

So here are some
jokes to take you
through Friday!

Two blondes were
walking down the
street and they came
across a pile of crap.
One said, “It's
chocolate." The
other said, “It's
crap." So they tasted
it to find out, and it
was crap. So the one
blonde said. ”I’m so
happy we didn't step
in it!"

A man is waiting for his
wife to give birth.
The doctor comes in
and informs the dad
that his son was born
without torso, arms
or legs. The son is
just a head!

But the father loves his
son and raises him as
well as he can, with
love and compassion.
After 2i years. the
son is old enough for
his first drink. Dad
takes him to the bar
and tearfully tells the
son he is proud of
him.

Dad orders up the
biggest, strongest
drink for his boy.
With all the bar
patrons looking on
curiously and the
bartender shaking his
head in disbelief, the
boy takes his first sip
of alcohol. Swoooop!
A torso pops out!

The bar is dead silent;
then it bursts into a
whoop of joy. The
father, shocked. begs
his son to drink
again. The patrons
chant, "Take another
drink!"

The bartender still
shakeshis head in
dismay. Swoooop!
Two arms pop out.
The bar goes wild,
but the bartender is
clearly disapproving.

The father, crying and
wailing, begs his son
to drink again. The
patrons chant, "Take
another drink!" The
bartender ignores
the whole affair.

By now the boy is
getting tipsy, and
with his new hands
he reaches down,
grabs his drink and
guzzles the last of it.
Swoooop! Two legs
pop out. The bar is in
chaos. The father
falls to his knees and
tearfully thanks God.

The boy stands up on his
new legs and
stumbles to the
left...then to the
right...right through
the front door. into
the street, where a
truck runs over him
and kills him
instantly. The bar
falls silent. The
father moans in grief.

The bartender sighs and
says, "That boy
should have guu
while he was a
head."

Peru armed forces support Fujimori

LIMA. Peru After days of silence that
stirred fears of a coup. the powerful armed forces
sided publicly yesterday with President Alberto
Fujimori in a political crisis over his disman-
tling of the much-feared national spy agency. The
declaration of military support. the first since
Fujimori announced his move against the agency
Saturday. appeared aimed at easing public wor-
ries in a country with a long history of military
coups. it also appeared to quiet speculation over
who really controlled Peru: the president or his
national intelligence chief. who is embroiled in a
bribery scandal that is forcing Fujimori to cut
short his presidency.

pushes

for agreement

ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBUS. Ohio -Con-
tract talks resumed Thursday
between Kroger and a union
that has voted to strike at mid-
night if agreement is not
reached.

Ninety-eight percent of
the estimated 3.800 employees
who voted Wednesday also re-
jected the company's latest of-
fer for a pact to replace a con
tract that expired Saturday.
said Paul Smithberger.
spokesman for Local 1059 of
the United Food and (‘ommer-
cial Workers Union.

The local represents
12.000 workers in 77 Kroger
stores and one warehouse in
central and southeast ()hio.

(‘incinnatibased Kroger
has no plans to close the
stores if the workers go on
strike. said spokesman Nick
Rees.

"We‘re very optimistic we
can work this out today." he
said.

(ireg Denier. the union's
national spokesman. would
not comment on whether an
agreement will be reached by
the strike deadline.

Rees said Kroger's cont

pensation package is the best
in the grocery industry but de-
clined to say what the compa-
ny has offered.

Local 1059 President
Becky Berroyer said the com-
pany and the union disagree
on wages. prescription drug
coverage anti pension issues.
among other items. She said
picket signs were printed and
members were ready to walk.

“People aren‘t angry. but
they're frustrated and disap-
pointed and they're ready to
strike." Berroyer said
Wednesday as workers voted
at the state fairgrounds.

Kevin Reynolds. of Mans

foods department at the Wor-
thington Mall Kroger in sub-
urban (‘olumbus said he will
walk a picket line if there is a
strike. mainly because of the
company’s refusal to provide
a prescription drug plan.

“My wife had two surg-
eries in February and none of
the antibiotics or drugs were
covered.” Reynolds said. "in

Fair offers opportunities
for UK medical students

Recruit me: Promoters will encourage
medical students to pursue primary care

By Rebecca Osborne
CONTRIBUTING WRlTE—RE'V—r

Everyone knows a doctor
spends years in school. But even
after 21 years invested in kinder-
garten through high school. col-
lege and medical school. physi»
cians must also complete a resi-
dency. the length of which
varies with his or Tier chosen
specialty

On Friday. an event called
Primary Care Day/Family Prac-
tice Residency Fair at the [TR
Chandler Medical Center will
help L'K's prospective doctors
determine whether their in»
terests lie in primary care
medicine.

Recruiters at the fair will
provide medical students with
information about various pri~
mary care residency programs
in ll states. including those at
UK. These promoters will have
booths designed to entice T'K's
future medical alumni.

"It's sort of like a job fair."
said Michael King. fourth year
medical student and vice presi
dent of the Family Medicine In

SUMMERQLYMETCS-

terest Group. an organization in
the College of Medicine.

“They [promoters] are in a
recruiting mode," he said.

The event is the result of a
joint effort between the ()ffiCC of
Student Affairs and the Family
Medicine Interest Group. It was
coordinated by King and Sue
Fosson. assistant dean of student
affairs.

This is the first year the
joint event is being held. though
each group has had similar fairs
in the past.

Fosson said a national
movement was created five or
six years ago to motivate med-
ical students to pursue careers
in these disciplines. Too many
prospective physicians at that
time were following paths into
one of the other 20 medical
specialties.

"About half [of graduating
medical students] need to be in
general care specialties." she
said.

The l‘niversity seems to
have been doing its part to iin
prove this national problem.
Fosson said out of last year's

graduating class of medical stu-
dents at 17K. 46 percent were
planning to pursue the primary
care field.

Angela Korrect. first year
medical student. is one of the
students who may benefit front
the fair.

"I think it would be valuable
to see if there are programs out-
side of Lexington and
Louisville." Korrect said. point-
ing otit the two cities house the
major tnedical programs in the
state. "I think it would be valu—
able to learn tnore about individ»
ual residencies."

Fourth year medical student
Kelly Sopko also plans to attend
and indicated the importance of
looking for the benefits of any
job.

"l'll look for how the pro»
grain is organized and arranged
and what the area has to offer."
she said.

Care fair

The Primary Care Day/Family
Practice Residency Fair will be in
the courtyards of the College of
Dentistry from 10 am. to 2 pm. and
will be open to the public. Lunch
will be served from ":30 am. to 1
