While visiting our country, a lovely French maiden found herself out of money just as her visa expired. Unable to pay her passage back to France, she was in despair until an enterprising sailor made her a sporting proposition. "My ship is sailing tonight," he said.

A pretty young maiden from France
Decided she'd "just take a chance."
    She let herself go
    For an hour or so
And now all her sisters are aunts.

A Monocoque (MOW-no-coke) structure is one which uses its outer skin as a structural member to bear shear or load forces due to bending, which is accomplished through the distribution of these forces. They can be divided into three groups - monocoque, semi-monocoque, and reinforced shell. Monocoque comes from a French word meaning "single shell". These designs first came into vogue in aircraft, as a way to save weight by transferring load from a heavy frame to the skin of the craft, which is after all a required component.
