Last month's question: For 50 points, name the pictured object or its use.

No one correctly identified the item - it is a plastic blank used in the two-stage process of manufacturing 2-liter soda bottles. An injection molding machine makes the blank which is then automatically feed into a blow molding machine which creates the final product - the 2 liter bottle pictured below.

Ramblings
What's My Line?
Once upon a time there was a shepherd looking after his sheep on the edge of a deserted road. Suddenly a brand new BMW screeches to a halt next to him.  The driver, a young man dressed in a snazzy suit and shoes, Ray-Ban glasses and a yellow tie gets out and asks the shepherd: "If I guess how many sheep you have, will you give me one of them?"

The shepherd looks at the young man, then looks at the sheep grazing and says: - "All right." The young man parks the car, connects his Toshiba notebook and the mobile, enters a NASA site, scans the ground using his GPS, opens a database and 60 Excel tables filled with algorithms, then prints a 150 page report on his high-tech mini-printer.  He then turns to the shepherd and says: - "You have exactly 1586 sheep."

The shepherd answers: - "That's correct, you can take your sheep."  The young man takes one and puts in the back of his BMW.  The shepherd looks at him and asks: - "If I guess your profession, will you return my animal to me?" The young man answers: - "Yes, why not?"

The shepherd says: - "You are a consultant." "How did you know?" asks the young man. "Very simple", answers the shepherd:  "First, you come here without being called.  Second, you charge me a sheep to tell me something I already knew. Third, you do not understand anything about what I do, because you took my dog."

Best Comeback Line Ever
In summary, the police arrested Patrick Lawrence, a 22-year-old white male, resident of Dacula, GA, in a pumpkin patch at 11:38 p.m. on Friday.  Lawrence will be charged with lewd and lascivious behavior, public indecency, and public intoxication at the Gwinnett County courthouse on Monday. The suspect explained that as he was passing a pumpkin patch he decided to stop.  "You know, a pumpkin is soft and squishy inside, and there was no one around here for miles. At least I thought there wasn't," he stated in a phone interview.

Lawrence went on to say that he pulled over to the side of the road, picked out a pumpkin that he felt was appropriate to his purposes, cut a hole in it, and proceeded to satisfy his alleged need."

"I guess I was just really into it, you know?" he commented with evident embarrassment.  In the process, Lawrence apparently failed to notice a Gwinnett County police car approaching and was unaware of his audience until Officer Brenda Taylor approached him. "It was an unusual situation, that's for sure," said Officer Taylor. "I walked up to (Lawrence) and he's...just working away at this pumpkin."

Taylor went on to describe what happened when she approached Lawrence.  "I just went up and said, 'Excuse me sir, but do you realize that you are screwing a pumpkin?' He froze and was clearly very surprised that I was there, and then looked me straight in the face and said, "A pumpkin?  Damn...is it midnight already?

The Rabbi is always right!
An older Jewish gentleman marries a younger lady and they are very much in love. However, no matter what the husband does sexually, the woman never achieves orgasm.  Since a Jewish wife if entitled to sexual pleasure, they decide to ask the rabbi.  The rabbi listens to their story, strokes his beard, and make the following suggestion.  " Hire a strapping young man.  While the two of you are making love, have the young man wave a towel over you.  That will help the wife fantasize and should bring on an orgasm."

They go home and follow the rabbi's advice.  They hire a handsome young man and he waves a towel over them as they make love, But it doesn't help and she is still unsatisfied.  Perplexed, they go back to the rabbi.  "Okay", says the rabbi, "let's try it reversed.  Have the young man make love to your wife and you wave the towel over them. Once again, they follow the rabbi's advice.

The young man gets into bed with the wife and the husband waves the towel. The young man gets to work with great enthusiasm and the wife soon has an enormous, room-shaking screaming orgasm.  The husband smiles, looks at the young man and says to him triumphantly…. "You see, THAT'S the way to wave a towel!"
