What do you call a swordsman that can't block?

Sub-parry.

I had to look up paracetamol, and finally learned that it's another name for acetaminophen. The latter name I'm more familiar with because that's what Tylenol is, and I see the word acetaminophen printed on bottles of no-name brands of pain and/or fever reducing medicine.

I guess you do learn something new every day.

What do you call an eagle that kills an elephant?

Talonted.

A couple of reasons why we tell puns (no specific puns here):

* We take entertaining ourselves to whole new art-forms.

* We have developed those novel aptitudes for language usage.

Any further reasons?

A Led Zeppelin pun:

* One terrific result of puns: Puns may sometimes have a "neutralizing effect" of sorts on some of those everyday, garden variety pesky situations.

A biro or a fountain pun?

When puns, or dry-humor are like magic: When dry-humor holds water, makes a big splash, without coming-out all wet, and watered-down.

Twins are separated at birth and are adopted by two separate families. One went to a family in Egypt, and they named him Amahl. The other went to a family in Spain and his name is Juan. Years later, Juan's mother gets the address of Amahl's family (I know that's illegal, but its a joke) and she decided to send a long letter to Amahl's mother telling her about Juan's life with numerous pictures. Amahl's mother sent back a letter in reply saying how happy she was for son's twin, but sent no pictures. Juan's mother sent back a short letter, asking why she didn't send any pictures. Amahl's mother sent back a one sentence reply: "Well, once you've seen Juan, you've seen Amahl."
