What have these words in common?

I was in the six item express lane at the store quietly fuming. Completely ignoring the sign, the woman ahead of me had slipped into the check-out line pushing a cart piled high with groceries. Imagine my delight when the cashier beckoned the woman to come forward looked into the cart and asked sweetly, 'So which six items would you like to buy?'

Smith climbs to the top of Mt. Sinai to get close enough to talk to God. Looking up, he asks t he Lord.... 'God, what does a million years mean to you?'
The Lord replies, 'A minute.'
Smith asks, 'And what does a million dollars mean to you?'
The Lord replies, 'A penny.'
'Smith asks, 'Can I have a penny?'
'The Lord replies, 'In a minute.'

A young family moved into a house, next to a vacant lot.

One day, a Construction crew turned up to start building a house on the
empty lot.
The young family's 5-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door and spent much of each day observing the
workers.

Eventually the construction crew, all of them "gems-in-the-rough," more or less, adopted her as a kind of project mascot.

They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had tea and lunch
breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel
important.

At the end of the first week, they even presented her with a pay envelope
containing ten dollars. The little girl took this home to her mother who
suggested that she take her ten dollars "pay" she'd received to the bank
the next day to start a savings account.

When the girl and her mum got to the bank, the teller was equally impressed
and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own pay envelope at
such a young age.

The little girl proudly replied, I worked last week with a real
construction crew building the new house next door to us.

"Oh my goodness gracious, said the teller, "and will you be working on the house again this week, too?"

The little girl replied, I will, if those pricks at Bunnings ever deliver
the ****in' gyprock...

As proven by tools with private licence plates, this works quite well!

In each case, if you take the first letter off the beginning of the word and put it at the end of the word, then spell it backwards, it makes the same word.

I went to a YRS development day in the summer and one of my "colleagues" - not South I hasten to add - has a plate BE 57 REF.

The end message isn't difficult at all....

This message serves to prove that our minds can do amazing things! Impressive things! In the beginning it was hard, but now, on this line your mind is reading it automatically without even thinking about it, be proud! Only certin people can read this.

Perhaps it helps to have a touch of dyslexia.

I was following behind a car on the Christchurch motorway some years back when I noticed it had a personalised number plate.

I M L 8

My passenger thought I had gone nuts when I started laughing uncontrollably.

Can anyone guess the make, model and colour of the car?
