Michael and John are bungee-jumping one day. Michael says, "You know, we could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping business in Mexico."

John thinks about it and agrees this is a great idea, so they pool their money and buy everything they'll need - a tower, an elastic cord, insurance coverage, etc.

They travel to a city in Mexico and begin setting up on the Square. As they begin constructing the tower, a crowd starts to assemble below them. Slowly, more and more people gather to watch them at work.

On completion of the construction, both men climb to the top of the bungee tower. Michael fastens the bungee cord around the ankles of John who then leaps from the tower.

He bounces at the end of the cord but when the cord bounces him back up, Michael notices that John has a few cuts and scratches. Unfortunately, Michael isn't able to catch him, and John falls again, bounces, and comes back up again. This time, he is bruised and bleeding. Again, Michael misses grabbing hold of him. Once more, John falls and the cord bounces him back up, only this third time, he comes back pretty messed up; he's got a couple of broken bones and is almost unconscious.

Luckily, Michael finally catches him, and says, "What happened? Was the cord too long?"

John mumbles, "No, the cord was fine, but, what the hell is a Pinãta?"

ASB - :wink:
