以下是發生在我身上的真實故事:I was returning from a business trip abroad and was going through the Canadian Customs at an airport. It was late at night and I was tired.
Officer: "How long have you been away?"
Me: "Oh, about four weeks."
Officer: "Do you have anything to declare? Cigarettes? Alcohols?"
Me: "No. Just odds and ends souvenirs."
Officer (eyeing the box I am carrying): "What's in that box?"
Me (getting anxious): "Which? Oh, this one? It's my pair of push-up bars!" (putting both hands on my chest and doing push-up exercise motions)
Officer (grinning): "Oh, is it for your own PERSONAL use?"
Me (sweating now, why is he so interested): "Yes, I use it all the time. It makes my chest big."
Officer: "Yes, my wife has a pair too."
To make a story short: He broke out laughing when I opened the box. By then, my face was beet-red.

Some women go to bars to get out of bras.

Customs officers are usually stone-faced. But the one I encountered was human. It was after he had made the remark abt his wife's pair that it dawned on me why he was grinning.
Hey, I learnt the Queen's English, so it was not my pronunciation, obviously (said I with my nose up in the air).

"You've got it, Pontiac!" was a popular catch-phrase people used. At first, it meant "well equipped, good car, ...". Later, the phrase also implied "You've got it right!".
