Blonde Humor for your Hump Day

Two blonde girls were working for the city public works
department. One would dig a hole and the other would follow
behind her and fill the hole in. They worked up one side of the
street, then down the other, then moved on to the next street,
working furiously all day without rest, one girl digging a hole,
the other girl filling it in again.


An onlooker was amazed at their hard work, but couldn't understand
what they were doing. So he asked the hole digger, "I'm impressed
by the effort you two are putting in to your work, but I don't get
it -- why do you dig a hole, only to have your partner follow
behind and fill it up again?"


The hole digger wiped her brow and sighed, "Well, I suppose it
probably looks odd because we're normally a three-person team.
But today the girl who plants the trees called in sick..."

R.A.D is a simple, practical program offered to the community that teaches women to prevent and avoid attack. Participants spend time discussing risk reduction, risk avoidance, and hands on self defense techniques in case of an actual attack. The final session features “simulation” where participants utilize their training in a simulated attack.
