Puns Intended

Yesterday at dusk, the two of us were strolling along shoreline, when a couple of people who were jogging laggardly stopped us, and asked to make a call on our cell phone. The tall girl called her mother, and left a voicemail, saying 'Mom, no pun intended, but we are running late' ! It turned out that they were running for 4 1/2 hours, and had run 17 miles !

Today on NPR, someone was talking about the Democratic national convention, and mentioned 'Unintentional pun, but conventional wisdom says .."

Ah, the world is a punny place!
