Joke of the day:

So there's this snail, and he's really tired of being slow, so he goes to the nearest Renault dealer and buys one. He has them paint a big red S on the side, (for Snail) so everyone will see him and, marveling at his new speedier lifestyle, exclaim "Sacré bleu! Look at that S-car-go"
