Too good to pass up...

Bill Cotterell of the Tallahassee Democrat shared a couple of puns in a recent column that I thought were too good to pass up:

  • A Florida state agency refused to serve alcohol at a team-building event featuring a fortune-teller, "fearing it might weigh down upon the swami's liver."
  • Upon raiding a strip joint, a local sheriff "sent to know for whom the belles toil."

Reminds me of the sort of musical puns featured on The Gong Show. One I remember had something to do with a lion and a cowboy's best boots, with the punchline "Pardon me, Roy, is that the cat who chewed your new shoes?" (sung to the obvious tune, of course).
