    The one that has always amused me is the swipe card and coded lock systems that many companies employ. I've come across this regularaly in a few of the Universities I've worked in. These have had restriced areas where sponsoring companies are performing research work. To get in, there are lots of forms, procedures and checking to go through to make sure you are not some sort of industrial spy...

    Unless you're a cleaner, in which case you are allowed access to anywhere especially at night when there is no one around to see you taking photos etc :)

    When i was applying for American visa, there was these questions asking "have you had any military training" and "have you had any experience or training in handling explosive chemical". Yea, like i would say yes.

    Dude the best is the bottle with some warning in the bottom of it.
    "Don't turn the bottle upside down" or such, i had a good laugh when i've read this in newspaper.
