    ...the mission would offer the first close-up view of Uranus in 25 years.
    Wow... has it really been that long since the last examination?

    Did you hear about the colonoscopist that took a night course in basic auto mechanics at his community college?

    He scored 110% on his final.

    The teacher gave him extra credit for being able to change spark plugs through the tailpipe.
