For a kick, call Southwest Airlines late an night and listen to some
of their hold messages.  They sound like those "Deep Thoughts by Jack
Handey" on SNL.  The number is 800 435-9792.  Their fun for their
absurdity value.

Here's an example (paraphrased):

"Take a moment and listen to this relaxing thought.  Have you ever
been walking along and felt a pebble in your shoe?  You take your shoe
off, but you don't see a pebble.  So you shake your shoe, but still
find no pebble.  Then you put your shoe back on and it still feels
like there's a pebble there.  Just a pleasant thought.  We'll be with
you in a moment."
