A group of chess enthusiasts had checked into a hotel, and 
were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament
victories. After about an hour,the manager came out of the 
and asked them to disperse.  "But why?", they asked, as they

A hungry lion was roaming through the jungle looking for
something to eat. He came across two men.  One was sitting
under a tree and reading a book; the other was typing away on
his typewriter.  The lion quickly pounced on the man reading the
book and devoured him.  Even the king of the jungle knows
that readers digest and writers cramp.

He sent in ten different puns, in the hope that at least one
of the puns would win. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
