    There's a Space Shuttle mission to the moon with 2 monkeys and a woman on board.

    The headquarters in the US calls:"Monkey #1, Monkey #1 report to comms for instructions."

After some interesting images went through my head, I asked the receptionist if they really sold these things and she said yes.
    Well, it was three days before Christmas and I hadn't gotten the secretary in the office (Vivian) a present yet, so I bought one.
    When I got home, I realized that there was no literature in the little package - no warranty card, no instruction, no nothing - so I wrote some. Below is the promotional flyer that came with Vivian's.
    Thank you for purchasing the "digger" personal dental drill from ACME Corp., makers of do it yourself dental devices since 1939.
