President Vladimir Putin said on Monday he was keen to use Russia's planned global positioning system GLONASS to look after his black Labrador Koni.
"When can I buy hardware to equip my dog with so that she won't run away too far?" Putin was quoted as asking First Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Ivanov during a briefing on progress towards developing a competitor to the U.S. GPS system.

I suppose he's just too busy to walk his dog.

Children's funny misinterpretations of Christmas songs and carols.
@ 27 Dec. 2007 – 08:33:04
A teacher in Atlanta asked her students to write the words to their favorite Christmas Carols. Here are some of the humorous lines she received:
Deck the Halls with Buddy Holly
We three kings of porridge and tar
On the first day of Christmas my tulip gave to me
He's makin a list, chicken and rice.
With the jelly toast proclaim
Olive, the other reindeer. (all of the other reindeer)
Frosty the Snowman is a ferret elf, I say
Sleep in heavenly peas
You'll go down in listerine
Oh, what fun it is to ride with one horse, soap and hay
O come, froggy faithful

I wonder if this can be described using mathematical notation.

'One thousand' contains the letter 'A', but none of the words from one to nine hundred and ninety-nine has an 'A'.
