Some important suggestions for PC operators

2007-07-02T03:22:00.000-07:00

01. When you call us to have your computer moved, be sure to leave it buried under half a ton of postcards, baby pictures, stuffed animals, dried flowers, bowling trophies and children's art. We don't have a life, and we find it deeply moving to catch a fleeting glimpse of yours.

02. Don't write anything down. Ever. We can play back the error messages from here.

03. When an I.T. person says he's coming right over, go for coffee. That way you won't be there when we need your password. It's nothing for us to remember 700 screen saver passwords.

04. When you call the help desk, state what you want, not what's keeping you from getting it. We don't need to know that you can't get into your mail because your computer won't power on at all.

05. When I.T. support sends you an E-Mail with high importance, delete it at once. We're just testing.

06. When an I.T. person is eating lunch at his desk, walk right in and spill your guts right out. We exist only to serve.

07. Send urgent email all in uppercase. The mail server picks it up and flags it as a rush delivery.

08. When the photocopier doesn't work, call computer support. There's electronics in it.

09. When something's wrong with your home PC, dump it on an I.T. person's chair with no name, no phone number and no description of the problem. We love a puzzle.

10. When an I.T. person tells you that computer screens don't have cartridges in them, argue. We love a good argument.

11. When an I.T. person tells you that he'll be there shortly, reply in a scathing tone of voice: "And just how many weeks do you mean by shortly?" That motivates us.

12. When the printer won't print, re-send the job at least 20 times. Print jobs frequently get sucked into black holes.

13. When the printer still won't print after 20 tries, send the job to all 68 printers in the company. One of them is bound to work.

14. Don't learn the proper term for anything technical. We know exactly what you mean by "My thingy blew up".

15. Don't use on-line help. On-line help is for wimps.

Santa goes into the dentist's office to get a bad tooth pulled. As he opens his mouth and the dentist is about to drill, he asks how long the procedure will take.
"You'll be out of here before you know it, and won't feel a thing - the local will last 10 minutes."
"And how much is this costing?" Santa asks.
"Rs 500" the dentist states plainly.
"Geesh," Santa grumbled, "it's a crime to be able to hold a man captive for five minutes and charge him Rs 500!"
"Then for you, I'll give you a special!" the dentist said, and Santa's face looked pleasantly relieved.
"I'll take 15 minutes to do the extraction."

laloo jokes

2006-08-03T11:02:00.000-07:00

Kashmir on sale: Laloo
There is an emergency election in India and Laloo runs for the election on the campaign promise "I will solve the J & K problem with Pakistan in one WEEK!"

Because of the political equations he ends up becoming the Prime Minister.

As promised, he decides to meet the Pakistan's premier to hold talks on J & K. Both Laloo and Musharraf huddle in a meeting for 30 minutes. As they come out Musharraf announces that they are withdrawing support to the militants and J & K is India's to keep! Everyone is excited!

One reporter asks Laloo as to how he did it!

Laloo replies: I put J & K on sale. It's just like you "buy a TV and you get a camera free" kind a deal. I told Musharraf to take J & K and he will get Bihar for free!

Laloo to a long-distance telephone operator: "Could you please tell me the time difference between Patna and Las Vegas?"
Operator: "just a minute, sir ..."
Laloo: "THANK YOU", and puts down the phone.

At a bar in New York, the man to Laloo's left tells the bartender, "JOHNNIE WALKER, SINGLE."
And the man's companion says,"JACK DANIELS, SINGLE."
The bartender approaches Laloo and asks, "AND YOU, SIR?"
Laloo replies: "LALOO PRASAD, MARRIED."

After completing a jigsaw puzzle he'd been working on for quite sometime, Laloo proudly shows off the finished puzzle to a friend. "It took me ONLY 5 MONTHS TO DO IT," Laloo brags.
"FIVE MONTHS? THAT'S TOO LONG." the friend exclaims."YOU ARE A FOOL".
Laloo replies. "SEE THIS CARTOON, IT IS WRITTEN-"FOR 4-7 YRS".

After having resigned as the CM of Bihar, Laloo decides to go modeling. On one occasion, he enters a herd of buffaloes and resting his elbows on the back of the cattle he poses for the photo. Next day the photo appears on the front page of a newspaper. GUESS THE CAPTION!!
LALOO, THIRD FROM LEFT.

Laloo Prasad Yadav was hosting a Japanese Delegation for Business Development to Bihar. The Japanese Emissary was quite impressed with Bihar and he stated, "Bihar is an excellent state.Give us three years and we will turn it into an economic superpower like Japan."
Laloo was very surprised."You Japanese are very "inefficient", he stated. "Give me three days and I will turn Japan into the next Bihar!"

***
During an International conference, three scientists, an American, a German, and an Indian, were talking and bragging about the technological advances their respective countries have achieved in the field of medicine. The American said "In Washington, there was a baby boy born without arms so we attached artificial arms on him. And now that he's grown up and became an Olympic professional boxer and a gold medallist !"
The German replied, "That's nothing to what we have achieved. Back in Berlin, there was a baby girl born without legs so we attached a pair of artificial legs on her. Now she is a three-time Olympics marathon gold medalist !"
The Indian interjected " Is that all you have achieved, just gold medalists? In Patna, Bihar we had a baby boy born without a HEAD ! We attached a COCONUT and called him Laloo and he has grown up and now he is the Chief Minister of State of Bihar !"

To my friend

2006-08-03T10:59:00.000-07:00

To My Friends Who Are............MARRIED
Love is not about "it's your fault", but "I'm sorry",
not "where are you' but "I'm right here",
not "how could you" but "I understand",
not "I wish you were", but "I'm thankful you are."

To My Friends Who Are............ENGAGED
The true measure of compatibility is not the years
spent together but How good you are for each other.

To My Friends Who Are............NOT SO SINGLE
Love isn't about becoming somebody else's "perfect
person." It's About finding someone who helps you
become the best person you can be.

To My Friends Who Are............HEARTBROKEN
Heartbreaks last as long as you want and cut as deep
as you allow them to go. The challenge is not how to
survive heartbreaks but to learn from them.

To My Friends Who Are............NAIVE
How to be in love: Fall but don't stumble, be
consistent but not too persistent, share and never be
unfair, understand and try not to demand, and
get hurt but never keep the pain.

To My Friends Who Are............SEARCHING
True love cannot be found where it does not truly
exist, nor can it be hidden where it truly does. Love
is magic. The more we hide it, the more it
shows; the more you suppress it, the more it grows.

To My Friends Who Are............PLAYBOY/GIRL TYPE
Never say I love if you don't care. Never talk about
feelings if they aren't there. Never touch a life if
you mean to break a heart. Never look in the
eye when what you do is lie. The cruelest thing a
person can do to another, is to let them fall in love
when they don't intend to catch their fall.

To My Friends Who Are............POSSESSIVE
It breaks your heart to see the one you love happy
with someone else But it's more painful to know that
the one you love is unhappy with you.

To My Friends Who Are............AFRAID TO CONFESS
Love hurts when you break up with someone. It hurts
even more when someone breaks up with you. But love
hurts the most when the person you love has no
idea how you feel.

To My Friends Who Are............STILL HOLDING ON
A sad thing about life is that when you meet someone
who means a lot To you, only to find out in the end
that it was never meant to be and we Just have
to let go.

To My Friends Who Are............SINGLE
Love is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the
more it eludes you. But if you just let it fly, it
would come to you when you least expect it.
Love can make you happy but often times it hurts,
but love's only special when you give it to someone
who is worth it. So take your time and choose
the best.

I've learned...(Article which appeared in YES Youth Express 20/7/2001)

2006-07-06T11:19:00.000-07:00

* That you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is to be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them.

* That no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back.

* That it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.

* That it's not what you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts.

* Thaty you can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes. After that, you'd better know something.

* That you should'nt compare yourself to the best others can do.

* That you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.

* That we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

* That either you control your attitude or it controls you.

* That money is a lousy way of keeping score.

* That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

* That sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will be the ones to help you get up.

* That true friendship continues to grow; even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

* That just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

* That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

* That no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

* That it is'nt always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you are to learn to forgive yourself.

* That no matter how bad your heart is broken the world does'nt stop for your grief.

* That our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.

* That just because two people argue, it does'nt mean they don't love each other. And just because they don't argue, it does't mean they do.

* That we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

* That two people can look at the exact same thing and see womething totally different.

* That your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.

* That even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.

* That the people you care about most in life are taken from you soon.

Computer Problem

2006-07-06T11:18:00.000-07:00

In March 1999 a man living in Newtown near Boston,
Massachusetts, received a bill for his as yet unused credit card
stating that he owed $0.00. He ignored it and threw it away.

In April he received another and threw that one away
too. The following month the credit card company sent him a
very nasty note stating they were going to cancel his card if he
didn't send them $0.00 by return of post. He called them, talked to them, they said it was a computer error and
told him they'd take care of it.

The following month he decided that it was about time
that he tried out the troublesome credit card figuring that if
there were purchases on his account it would put an end to his
ridiculous predicament.

However, in the first store that he produced his credit
card in payment for his purchases he found that his card had
been cancelled. He called the credit card company who apologized for
the computer error once again and said that they would take care of it. The next day he got a bill for
$0.00 stating that payment was now overdue. Assuming that having spoken
to the credit card company only the previous day the latest bill was
yet another mistake he ignored it, trusting that the company
would be as good as their word and sort the problem out.

The next month he got a bill for $0.00 stating that he had 10 days to
pay his account or the company would have to take steps to recover the
debt.

Finally giving in, he thought he would beat the company at their own
game and mailed them a cheque for $0.00. The computer duly processed his account and returned a statement to
the effect that he now owed the credit card company nothing at all.

A week later, the man's bank called him asking him what he was doing
writing a cheque for $0.00. After a lengthy explanation the bank replied that the $0.00 cheque had
caused their cheque processing software to fail. The bank could not
now process ANY cheque from ANY of their customers that day because the
cheque for $0.00 was causing the computer to crash.

The following month the man received a letter from the credit card
company claiming that his cheque had bounced and that he now owed them $0.00 and unless he sent a cheque by
return of post they would be taking steps to recover the debt.

The man, who had been considering buying his wife a computer for her
birthday, bought her a typewriter instead.

You Are Unique

2006-07-04T10:53:00.001-07:00

Think what a remarkable, unduplicatable,
and miraculous thing it is to be you!
Of all the people who have come and gone
on the earth, since the beginning of time,
not one of them is like you

No one who has ever lived or is to come has
had your combination of abilities, talents,
appearance, friends, acquaintances, burdens,
sorrows and opportunities.

No, one's hair grows exactly the way yours does. No one's finger prints are like yours.
No one has the same combination of secret
inside jokes and family expressions that you know.

The few people who laugh at all the same things you do, don't sneeze the way you do.
No one prays about exactly the same concerns as you do. No one is loved by the same
combination of people that love you

No one before, no one to come.
You are absolutely unique!
Enjoy that uniqueness. You do not have to
pretend in order to seem more like someone else. You weren't meant to be like someone else. You do not have to lie to conceal the parts of you that are not like what you see in anyone else.

You were meant to be different. Nowhere ever
in all of history will the same things be going
on in anyone's mind, soul and spirit as are
going on in yours right now.
If you did not exist, there would be a hole in
creation, a gap in history, something missing
from the plan for humankind.

Treasure your uniqueness. It is a gift given only to you. Enjoy it and share it!
No one can reach out to others in the same way
that you can. No one can speak your words.
No one can convey your meanings. No one can
comfort with your kind of comfort. No one can
bring your kind of understanding to another
person.

No one can be cheerful and lighthearted and
joyous in your way. No one can smile your smile.
No one else can bring the whole unique impact of
you to another human being.

Share your uniqueness. Let it be free to flow out
among your family and friends and people you
meet in the rush and clutter of living wherever you are. That gift of yourself was given you to enjoy
and share.

Give yourself away!
See it! Receive it! Let it tickle you!
Let it inform you and nudge you and inspire you!
You Are Unique

bill gates in hell

2006-07-04T10:53:00.000-07:00

Bill gates has been in a car accident. He finds himself in purgatory, being sized up by St. Peter.

"Well, Bill, I'm really confused on this call. I'm not sure where to send you. After all, you helped society enormously by putting a computer in almost every home in America, yet you also created that ghastly Windows '95.

I'm going to do something I've never done before. In your case, I'm going to let you decide whether you want to go to Heaven or Hell."

Bill replied, "Well, what's the difference between the two?"

St. Peter : "I'm willing to let you visit both places briefly, if it will help your decision."

Bill : "Fine, but where should I go first?"

St. Peter : "I'll leave that up to you."

"Okay then," said Bill, "Let's try Hell first." So Bill went to Hell. It was a beautiful, clean, sandy beach with clear waters and lots of bikini-clad women running around, playing in the water, laughing, and frolicking about. The sun was shining, the temperature was perfect. Bill was very pleased.

"This is great!" he told St. Peter. "If this is hell, I really want to see heaven!".

"Fine," said St. Peter, and off they went.

Heaven was a place high in the clouds, with angels drifting about, playing harps and singing. It was nice, but not as enticing as Hell. Bill thought for a minute, and rendered his decision.

"Hmmm. I think I'd prefer Hell," he told St. Peter. "Fine," retorted St. Peter, "as you desire". So Bill Gates went to Hell.

Two weeks later, St. Peter decided to check on the late billionaire to see how he was doing in Hell. When he got there, he found Bill, shackled to a wall, screaming amongst hot flames in dark caves, being burned and tortured by daemons.

"How's everything going?" he asked Bill.

Bill responded, with his voice filled with anguish and disappointment, "This is awful! This is nothing like the Hell I visited two weeks ago! I can't believe this is happening! What happened to that other place, with the beautiful beaches, the scantily-clad women playing in the water?"

ECE interview

2006-07-04T10:48:00.000-07:00

Interviewer: Why is a thicker conductor necessary to
carry a current in
A.C.as compared to D.C. ?
Candidate: An AC current goes up and down (drawing a
sinusoid)
and requires more space inside the wire, so the wire
has to be
thicker.
--------------
Interviewer: How will you tell if that wall outlet
carries AC or DC

Candidate: I will put my finger in. If it is pushed
away, it is
AC. If it gets stuck, it was DC.
--------------
Interviewer: How will you reverse direction of an
induction motor?
Candidate: I will remove the four bolts at the base,
turn the
motor around,and put back the bolts.
--------------
Interviewer: How do you start a synchronous motor?
Candidate: Vrrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm (in rising
pitch)
Interviewer: Stop! Stop!
Candidate: rrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm (in falling
pitch)
--------------
Interviewer: How do you limit surge current within an
integrated
circuit?
Candidate: By using a miniature circuit breaker.
--------------
External (to student) : " Why does a capacitor block
DC but
allow AC To pass through ?
Student: See, a capacitor is like this ---| |--- , OK.
DC Comes
straight,like this ----------, and the capacitor stops
it. But
AC,goes UP, DOWN, UP DOWN and jumps right over the
capacitor!"

Examiner : "What is a step-up transformer?"
Student : "A transformer that is put on top of
electric poles."
Examiner (smiling): "And then what is a step-down
transformer?"
Student (hesitantly):"Uh - A transfomer that is put in
the
basement or in a pit?"
Examiner (pouncing): "Then what do you call a
transformer that
is installed on the ground?"
(student knows he is caught-can't answer)
Examiner (impatiently): "Well?"
Student (triumphantly): "A stepless

monkey and hat

2006-07-04T10:47:00.000-07:00

There was once a hat-seller who passed by a forest on his way back from the market. The weather was very hot and so he decided to take a nap under one of the trees, so he left his whole basket of hats by the side. A few hours later, he woke up by some sounds. The next thing he realised was that all his hats were gone. He heard some monkeys on the tree and so he looked up. To his surprise, the tree was full of monkeys and they had taken all his hats. The hat-seller sits down and thinks of how he can get the hats down. He thinks and thinks and starts scratching his head. The next moment, he realised that the monkeys were doing the same action. Next, he took down his own hat and an himself and the monkeys do exactly the same. An idea came to him, he took his hat and threw it on the floor and the monkeys did that too. So he finally managed to get all his hats back.

If you think you have read this before.......................... read on!!!

Fifty years later, his grandson, Jack, also became a hat-seller and had heard this monkey story from his grandfather. One day, just like his grandfather, he passed by the same forest, it was very hot, and he took a nap under the same tree and left the hats on the floor. He woke up and realised that all his hats were gone. He looked up and realised that the monkeys had taken all the hats. He remembered his grand father's words, started scratching his head and the monkeys follows. He took down his hat and fanned himself and again the monkeys followed. Now, very convinced of his grandfather's idea, Jack threw his hat on the floor but to his surprise, the monkeys still holded on to all the hats. Then one monkey climbed down the tree, grabbed the hat on the floor, gave him a slap and said, "You think only you have a grandfather?

3q

2006-07-01T13:33:00.000-07:00

I am going to ask you three questions. And you have to answer
them instantly. You can't take your time you have to answer
immediately. O.K.?

Let's find just how clever you really are ........ Ready? GO
!!!!!

First Question: You are participating in a race. You overtake
the second. What position do you finish?

NOW! See the answer below..

Answer: If you answer that you arrived first, then you are
absolutely wrong!!! because you overtake the second and you
take his place so you arrived second!!! !!

To answer the second question don't take as much time as you
took for the first question. Second Question: If you overtake
the last then you arrive...?

Answer: If you answer that you arrived second last then you
are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the last if he
was last!!!! The question is wrong! You're not very good at
this are you???

Third Question Subject: *Very very Tricky maths! Note: This
riddle must be done IN YOUR HEAD ONLY and NOT using paper and
a pen. Try it.

Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30.
Another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000. Now add 10.

What is the total? (scroll down for answer)

Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100. Don' t
believe it? Check with your calculator! The decimal sequence
confuses our brain, that always jumps to the highest decimals
(100s instead of 10s).

That should have you in a bad mood for the rest of the day!!!

You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

And finally ... Quote for the day: "Computer games don't
affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all
be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and
listening to repetitive electronic music."

haikoo

2006-07-01T13:31:00.000-07:00

Some programmers in Japan have replaced the impersonal and
unhelpful
Microsoft Error messages with Haiku poems.

Haiku poetry has strict construction rules. Each poem has only
three lines,
17 syllables: five syllables in the first line, seven in the
second, five
in the third.

Haiku's are used to communicate a timeless message, often
achieving a
wistful yearning and powerful insight through extreme brevity
- the essence
of Zen.

Here are the new error messages, haiku style:

Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.

The website you seek
Cannot be located,
But countless more exist.

Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.

Program aborting:
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.

Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.

Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.

First snow, then silence.
This thousand dollar screen dies
So beautifully.

With searching comes loss
And the presence of absence:
"My Novel" not found.

The Tao that is seen
Is not the true Tao, until
You bring fresh toner.

Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.

A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.

Three things are certain:
Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.

You step in the stream,
But the water has moved on.
This page is not here.

Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
But we never will.

Having been erased,
The document you're seeking
Must now be retyped.

Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared. Screen.
Mind. Both are blank.

Three Turtles

2006-07-01T13:30:00.000-07:00

Three turtles, Joe, Steve, and Raymond, decide to go on a
picnic. Joe packs the picnic basket with cookies, bottled
sodas, and sandwiches. The

trouble is, the picnic site is 10 miles away, so the turtles
take 10 whole days to get there. By the time they do arrive,
everyone's exhausted. Joe takes the stuff out of the basket,
one by one. He takes out the sodas and says, 'all right,
Steve, gimme the bottle opener.' 'I didn't bring the bottle
opener,' Steve says. 'I thought you packed it.' Joe gets
worried. He turns to Raymond. 'Raymond, do you have the bottle
opener?'

Naturally, Raymond doesn't have it, so the turtles are stuck
ten miles away from home without soda. Joe & Steve beg Raymond
to turn back home and retrieve it, but Raymond flatly refuses,
knowing that they'll eat everything by the time he gets back.
After about two hours, the turtles manage to convince Raymond
to go, swearing on their great grand turtles' graves that they
won't touch the food.

So, Raymond sets off down the road, slow and steadily.

Twenty days pass, but no Raymond. Joe and Steve are hungry and
puzzled, but a promise is a promise. Another day passes, and
still no Raymond, but a promise is a promise. After three more
days pass without Raymond in sight,

Steve starts getting restless. 'I NEED FOOD!' he says with a
hint of dementia in his voice. 'NO!' Joe retorts. 'We
promised.' Five more days pass.

Joe realizes that Raymond probably skipped out to the diner
down the road, so the two turtles weakly lift the lid, get a
sandwich, and

open their mouths to eat. But then, right at that instant,
Raymond

pops out from behind a rock, and says, 'I knew it!, That's it!
I'm not going.'

Old Man : (Angrily) Young man, I will never marry my
daughter to a
person like you who does not even own a watch.

Cellphone in the Locker room

2006-07-01T13:25:00.000-07:00

There are several men in the locker room of a private club
after exercising. Suddenly a cell phone that was on one of the
benches rings. A man picks it up and the following conversation ensues:

"Hello?"

"Honey, It's me."

"Sugar!"

"Are you at the club?"

"Yes."

"Great! I am at the mall 2 blocks from where you are. I saw a
beautiful mink coat... it is absolutely gorgeous!! Can I buy
it?"

"What's the price?"

"Only $1,500.00"

"Well, OK, go ahead and get it, if you like it that much..."

"Ahhh and I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership and saw
the 2001 models. I saw one I really liked. I spoke with the
salesman and he gave me a really good price ... and since we
need to exchange the BMW that we bought last year..." "What
price did he quote you?"

"Only $60,000..."

"OK, but for that price I want it with all the options."

"Great!, before we hang up, something else..."

"What?"

"It might look like a lot, but I was reconciling your bank
account and...I stopped by the real estate agent this morning
and I saw the house we had looked at last year ... it's on
sale!! Remember? The one with a pool, English Garden, acre of
park area, beachfront property..."

"How much are they asking?"

"Only $850,000... a magnificent price, and I see that we have
that much in
the bank to cover..."

"Well, than go ahead and buy it, but just bid $820,000. OK?"

"OK, sweetie... Thanks! I'll see you later!! I love you!!!"

"Bye... I do too..."

The man hangs up, closes the phone's flap and raises his hand
while holding the phone and asks to all those present:

"Does anyone know who this phone belongs to?"

* The Notes *

2006-07-01T13:22:00.000-07:00

An elderly husband and wife noticed that they were beginning to forget many little things around the house. They were afraid that this could be dangerous, as one of them could accidentally forget to turn off the stove and thus cause a fire. So, they decided to go see their doctor to get some help.

Their doctor told them that many people their age find it useful to write themselves little notes as reminders. The elderly couple liked the suggestion and left the doctor's office very pleased with the advice.

When they got home, the wife said, "Honey, will you please go to the kitchen and get me a dish of ice cream? And why don't you write that down so you won't forget?"

"Nonsense," said the husband, "I can remember a dish of ice cream!"

"Well," said the wife, "I'd also like some strawberries on it. You better write that down, because I know you'll forget."

"Don't be silly," replied the husband. "A dish of ice cream and some strawberries. I can remember that!"

"OK, dear, but I'd like you to put some whipped cream on top. Now you'd really better write it down now. You'll forget," said the wife.
"Come now, my memory's not all that bad," said the husband. "No problem, a dish of ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream."With that, the husband shut the kitchen door behind him. The wife could hear him getting out pots and pans and making lots of noise.

He emerged from the kitchen about 15 minutes later.Walking over to his wife, he presented her with a plate of bacon and eggs. The wife took one look at the plate, glanced up at her husband and said, "Hey, where's the toast?"

This morning as I rose from bed and saw the sun above,
I softly said "Good Morning God, bless everyone I love".
And right away I thought of you and said a loving prayer
That He would bless you especially and keep you from care.
I thought of all the happiness your day could hold in store;
And wished it all for you, because no one deserves it more.
I felt so warm and good inside, my heart was all aglow
I know God heard my prayer for you,
He hears them all you know.

Today when I signed online,
I was happy and pleased to see.
That in my incoming mail,
Was a letter from you to me.
I love the cards you send me
And all the giggles too!
But the biggest thrill of all,
Was seeing it came from you.
Now we don't talk that much
So letters and cards say it all.
But I want you to know they're special
No matter how big or small.
So keep the e-mail coming
I love it ever so much.
And know its really appreciated,
Whenever you keep in touch! ;-)

Let's PARTY

2006-07-01T13:21:00.000-07:00

A research conducted on a herd of wild African buffalo shows that the herd can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first.

This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole is maintained or even improved by the regular culling of the weakest members.

In much the same way, the human brain can operate only as fast as the slowest brain cells through which the electrical signals pass. Recent epidemiological studies have shown that while excessive intake of alcohol kills off brain cells, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. Thus, regular consumption of beer helps eliminate the weaker cells, constantly making the brain a faster and more efficient machine.

The result of this in-depth study verifies and validates the causal link between all-weekend parties and job related performance. It also explains why, after a few short years of leaving university and getting married, most professionals cannot keep up with the performance of the new graduates.

Only those few that stick to the strict regimen of voracious alcoholic consumption can maintain the intellectual levels that they achieved during their university years.

So, this is a call to arms. As our country is losing its technological edge we should not shudder in our homes. Get back into the bars! Quaff that pint! Your company and country need you to be at your peak, and you shouldn't deny yourself the career that you could have.

A man goes into his son's room to wish him goodnight. His son is having a nightmare - the man wakes him and asks his son if he is OK? The son replies he is scared because he dreamt that Auntie Susie had died. The father assures the son that Auntie Susie is fine and sends him to bed. The next day, Auntie Susie dies.

One week later, the man again goes into his son's room to wish him goodnight. His son is having another nightmare - the man again wakes his son. The son this time says that he had dreamt that granddaddy had died. The father assures the son that granddaddy is fine and sends him to bed. The
next day, granddaddy dies.

One week later, the man again goes into his son's room to wish him goodnight. His son is having another nightmare - the man again wakes his son. The son this time says that he had dreamt that daddy had died. The father assures the son that he is OK and sends the boy to bed.

The man goes to bed but cannot sleep because he is so terrified. The next day, the man is scared for his life- he is sure is going to die.

After dressing he drives very cautiously to work fearful of a collision. He doesn't eat lunch because he is scared of food poisoning. He avoids everyone for he is sure he will somehow be killed. He jumps at every noise, starts at every movement and hides under his desk.

Upon walking in his front door at the end of the day, he finds his wife. "Good God, Dear," he proclaims, "I've just had the worst day of my entire life!" She responds, "You think your day was bad, the milkman dropped dead on the doorstep this morning."

Sony has announced its own computer operating system now available on its hot new portable PC called the Vaio. Instead of producing the cryptic error messages characteristic of Microsoft's Windows 95, 3.1, and DOS operating systems, Sony's chairman Asai Tawara said,

"We intend to capture the high ground by putting a human, Japanese face on what has been - until now - an operating system that reflects Western cultural hegemony. For example, we have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful Microsoft error messages with our own Japanese haiku poetry."

The chairman went on to give examples of Sony's new error messages:

Ticketless In NewYork

2006-06-21T10:19:00.000-07:00

Three lawyers and three software engineers were on their way to a conference in New York. At the railway station the three lawyers bought a ticket each but the engineers bought only one ticket between them.
"How will three of you travel on a single ticket?" asked the lawyers.
"Wait and see," said the engineers.
They boarded the train together. The lawyers took their seats but the engineers locked themselves in the toilet.
Shortly after the train started the conductor came to collect the tickets. He knocked on the door of the toilet and demanded, "Ticket please!" The door opened just a crack, and a hand emerged with a ticket in hand. The conductor took the ticket and moved on. Thereupon the enginners came out and occupied whatever seats were available. The lawyers were impressed.
The two groups met at the railway station on the return journey too. This time the lawyers bought only one ticket between them. The engineers bought no ticket at all.
"How will you manage without a ticket?" asked the lawyers bewildered. "Wait and see," said the engineers.
On boarding the train, the lawyers made a beeline for the toilet. They rushed in and locked themselves in. The engineers locked themselves in the other toilet.
When the train started moving out of the station one of the engineers came out of the toilet and knocked on the door of the other toilet.
"Ticket please!" he said. The door opened a crack, and a hand emerged and handed him the ticket.

Golfer Goes to Confession

2006-06-21T10:18:00.000-07:00

This man goes to confession and says, "Forgive me father for I have sinned."

The priest asks if he would like to confess his sins and the man replies that he used the "F-word" over the weekend.

The priest says, "Oh okay, just say three Hail Marys and try to watch your language."

The man replies that he would like to confess as to why he said the "F-word".

The priest sighs and tells him to continue.

Well father I played golf on Sunday with my buddies instead of going to church.

The priest says, "And you got upset over that and swore?"

The man replied, "No, that wasn't why I swore. On the first tee I
duck-hooked my drive well left into the trees."

The priest said, "And that's when you swore."

The man replied, a little testily because of the constant interruptions, "No, it wasn't. When I walked up the fairway, I noticed my ball got a lucky bounce and I had a clear shot to the green. However, before I could hit the ball, a squirrel ran by and grabbed my ball and scurried up a tree."

The priest asked, "Is that when you said the 'F-word'?"

The man replied, "No, because an eagle then flew by and caught the squirrel in its sharp talons and flew away."

The priest let out a breath and queried, "Is that when you swore?"

The man replied, "No, because the eagle flew over the green and the dying squirrel let go of my golf ball and it landed within 5 inches of the hole."

The priest screamed, "Don't tell me you missed the fucking putt!!!"

AN OLDIE BUT A GOODIE...

2006-06-20T10:46:00.000-07:00

On July 20, 1969, as commander of the Apollo 11 Lunar Module,
Neil Armstrong was the first person to set foot on the moon.
His first words after stepping on the moon, "That's one small
step for a man, one giant leap for mankind," were televised to
Earth and heard by millions. But just before he reentered the
lander, he made the enigmatic remark: "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky."

Many people at NASA thought it was a casual remark concerning
some rival Soviet Cosmonaut. However, upon checking, there was
no Gorsky in either the Russian or American space programs.
Over the years many people questioned Armstrong as to what the
"Good luck Mr.Gorsky" statement meant, but Armstrong always
just smiled.

On July 5, 1995, in Tampa Bay, Florida, while answering
questions following a speech, a reporter brought up the 26
year old question to Armstrong. This time he finally
responded. Mr. Gorsky had died and so Neil Armstrong felt he
could answer the question. In 1938 when he was a kid in a
small Midwest town, he was playing baseball with a friend in
the backyard. His friend hit a fly ball, which landed in his
neighbor's yard by the bedroom windows. His neighbors were Mr.
and Mrs. Gorsky. As he leaned down to pick up the ball, young
Armstrong heard Mrs. Gorsky shouting at Mr. Gorsky: "Sex! You
want sex?! You'll get sex when the kid next door walks on the
moon!"

Bill Gates - Some Facts (Don't miss the last point)

2006-06-20T10:45:00.000-07:00

1. Bill Gates earns
US$250 every SECOND, that's about US$20 Million a DAY and US$7.8 Billion
a YEAR!

2. If he drops a thousand dollars, he won't even bother to pick it up b'coz
by the 4th second he picks it, he already earns it back.

3. US's national debt is about 5.62 trillion, if Bill Gates pays the
debt by himself; he will finish it in less then 10 years.

4. He can donate US$15 to everyone on earth but still be left with US$5
Million for his pocket money.

5. Michael Jordan is the highest paid athlete in the US. If he does'nt
drink and eat, and keep his annual income US$30 Million up, he'll have to wait
for 277 years to become as rich as Bill Gates now.

6. If Bill Gates is a country, he is the 37th richest country on
earth,or US 13th biggest company, even bigger then IBM.

7. If exchange all Bill Gate's money to US$1, you can make a road from
earth to moon, 14 times back and forth. But you have to make that road
non-stop for 1,400 years, and use a total of 713 BOEING 747 plane to transport
all the money.

8. Bill Gates is 40 this year. If we assume that he still can live for
35 years, he has to spend US$6.78 Million per day to finish his money
before going to heaven.

9. BUT!!! If Microsoft Windows' users can claim US$1 for every time
their computers hang because of Microsoft Windows, Bill Gates will bankrupt in
3 years!

A letter by a Software Professional

2006-06-20T10:40:00.000-07:00

Dear Ms.

Miss, I saw you yesterday while surfing on the local train platform and realised that you are the only site I was browsing for. For a long time, I've been lonely, trying to find a bug in my life and you can be a real debugger for me now. My life is just an uncompiled program without you that never produces an executable code and hence is useless.

You not only have a beautiful face, but all your ActiveX controls are attractive as well. Your smile is so delightful that it encourages me and gives me power equal to thousands of mainframes processing power. When you looked at me last evening, I felt all my program modules running smoothly and giving expected results, which I have never experienced before.

With this letter, I just want to convey that, if we linked together, I'll provide you with all the objects and libraries necessary for a human being to live an error free life. Also don't bother about the firewall, which may be created by our parents as I've strong hacking capabilities by which I'll ultimately break their security passwords and make them accept our marriage.

I anticipate that nobody is already logged into your database so that my connect script would fail. And it's all certain that if this happened to me, I will crash my system beyond recovery. Kindly interpret this letter properly and grant me all privileges of your inbox.

Only yours,

XYZ

Male Courtship Signals

2006-06-20T10:35:00.000-07:00

Men always have a habit of displaying preening behaviour when a women approaches. Men will often straighten their jacket, shirt or other clothing.

They may also rub their hands across their hair. The male may also place his thumbs in his belt pointing towards the genital area.

Men also will tend to point their foot at a woman. You will find that he will use an intimate gaze and hold that longer then per normal.

Often the pupils will become diluted. Men will also often stand with their hands on their hips to dispay their masculine side.

When seated he tends to spread his legs part if interested in the female.

*Female Courtship Signals*

Women also tend to have pupil dilation when they are interested in a male. But they also have a flushed appearance in the cheeks.

Women also tend to shake their head in an effort to toss their hair. A female who is strongly interested will expose the inner sides of her wrists to the male.

The palms will also be made visible to the male. When walking towards or past a male of interest the hips will have an accentuated roll.

The woman will hold a mans gaze just long enough for him to notice then quickly look away. The mouth remains patially open and the lips appear to be wet.

One leg is tucked under the other with the knee pointing to the male of her interest. Women will often play with their shoe thrusting the foot in and out of the shoe.

GHOSTLY DRIVE

2006-06-18T11:37:00.000-07:00

Two guys left the bar after a long night of drinking, jumped in the car and started it up. After a couple of minutes, an old man appeared in the passenger window and tapped lightly. The passenger screamed, "Look at the window. There's an old ghost's face there!" The driver sped up, but the old man's face stayed in the window. The passenger rolled his window down part way and, scared out of his wits, said, "What do you want?"

The old man softly replied, "You got any tobacco?"

The passenger handed the old man a cigarette and yelled, "Step on it," to the driver, rolling up the window in terror.

A few minutes later they calmed down and started laughing again. The driver said, "I don't know what happened, but don't worry; the speedometer says we're doing 80 now." All of a sudden there was a light tapping on the window and the old man reappeared.

"There he is again," the passenger yelled. He rolled down the window and shakily said, "Yes?"

"Do you have a light?" the old man quietly asked. The passenger threw a lighter out the window saying, "Step on it!"

They were driving about 100 miles an hour, trying to forget what they had just seen and heard, when all of a sudden there came some more tapping.

"Oh my God! He's back!" The passenger rolled down the window and screamed in stark terror, "WHAT NOW?"

The old man gently replied, "You want some help getting out of the mud?"

Golfing Couple

2006-06-18T11:35:00.000-07:00

A couple was golfing one day on an exclusive
golfcourse lined with million-dollar houses. Off the
third tee, the wife hit the ball right through the
window of the biggest house on the course.
Embarrassed, they ran up to the house and knocked on
the door. A voice said, "Come on in."
Entering the house, they saw glass all over the floor,
a broken bottle lying in the foyer, and a man sitting
on the couch. "Are you the people who broke my
window?" he asked.
"Yes we are, but we're very sorry," the husband said.
"Actually I wanted to thank you." The man replied.
"I'm a genie who was trapped for a thousand years
inside that bottle you broke. Since you've released
me, I'm allowed to grant two wishes - one for you and
one for myself."
"Wow!" the husband replied. "In that case, I want a
million dollars a year for the rest of my life."
"Granted." The genie told him. "Now for my wish...I've
been trapped in that bottle, and without a woman, for
a thousand years, so my wish is to sleep with your
wife."
The husband looked at his wife, then shrugged. "Well,
we did get a lot of money, so I guess I don't care."
The genie took the wife upstairs and ravished her for
hours. When they were finally done, he rolled over,
looked at the wife, and asked, "How old is your
husband?"
"Thirty-five," she replied.

"And he still believes in genies? That's amazing!"

Welcome to Heaven

2006-06-18T11:33:00.000-07:00

Einstein dies and goes to heaven. At the Pearly Gates, Saint Peter tells him, "You look like Einstein, but you have NO idea the lengths that some people will go to sneak into Heaven. Can you prove who you really are?"

Einstein ponders for a few seconds and asks, "Could I have a blackboard and some chalk?"

Saint Peter snaps his fingers and a blackboard and chalk instantly appears. Einstein proceeds to describe with arcane mathematics and symbols his theory of relativity.

Saint Peter is suitably impressed. "You really ARE Einstein!" he says.
"Welcome to heaven!"

The next to arrive is Picasso. Once again, Saint Peter asks for credentials.

Picasso asks, "Mind if I use that blackboard and chalk?"

Saint Peter says, "Go ahead."

Picasso erases Einstein's equations and sketches a truly stunning mural with just a few strokes of chalk.

Saint Peter claps. "Surely you are the great artist you claim to be!" he says. "Come on in!"

Then Saint Peter looks up and sees George W. Bush. Saint Peter scratches his head and says, "Einstein and Picasso both managed to prove their identity. How can you prove yours?"

George W. looks bewildered and says, "Who are Einstein and Picasso?"

Saint Peter sighs and says, "Come on in, George."

Small But Durable
-----------------
In a recent survey in Iceland it was found that men who were 170cm or taller earned 16 per cent more on an average than their shorter colleagues. Taller women too were found to be earning more than shorter colleagues.
This is a finding which has been repeatedly corroborated by surveys, all over the world. Taller people seem to have an edge over shorter ones when it comes to earning money.
Taller men are also more popular with girls. But this is vertically-challenged who may have the last laugh. Latest research shows that the hormone that controls height, called the Insulin-like Growth factor(IGF) also controls agening. A low level of IGF means a longer life expectancy. In other words, shorties live longer.
Says Dr. Armand Leroi, a biologist who works at Imperial College in Ascot, England: "We know that big dogs seem to die early in life while smaller dogs enjoy more longevity. Mice whose growth has been deliberately stunted live up to 75 percent longer than their normal-sized neighbours. Studies show that this link also exists in humans. Many small people have deficiencies in IGF and there is a suggestion that they live longer.

Three countries

2006-06-15T10:06:00.000-07:00

Three men, a Newfoundlander, a Quebecer and an Albertan were walking along
a country road one day when they came across an old lamp beside the road.
One of them picked it up and rubbed it. Sure enough, out pops a Genie.
The Genie said, "I will grant you three wishes. Since there are three of
you, each of you will get one wish."

The Newfoundlander thought for a moment and then responded, "I'm a
fisherman. My father was a fisherman. And, my grandfather and
great-grandfather before him were fishermen. My son will be a fisherman. I
wish for the oceans to be filled with fish."

The Genie granted the Newfoundlander his wish. Poof! The oceans were
instantly filled with fish.

The Quebecer said, "I wish for a big wall all around Quebec."

Poof! The Genie granted the Quebecer his wish and a huge wall was erected
around the perimeter of Quebec.

The Albertan thought for some time before responding. Finally, he asked,
"Tell me, Genie, how big is this wall around Quebec?"

"The wall is 150 feet high and 50 feet thick," replied the Genie.
"And, nothing can get in or out of the wall."

"Okay, then," replied the Albertan, "fill it up with water!"

golf and frog

2006-06-15T10:05:00.000-07:00

This guy is playing a round of golf. He's about 150 yards from the 16th green. He takes his 7 iron out and lines up his shot.

"Ribet - 6 iron", he hears.

Seeing no one around, he starts to line up his shot again.

"Ribet - 6 iron", he look down and sees a frog talking to him.

"What the heck", he thinks. He takes out his 6 iron and knocks the ball 8 inches from the cup. "Wow", he says, and picks up the frog and carries it to the next hole. The 17th is a 190 yard par 3. The guy gets out his 3 iron.

"Ribet - 3 wood", says the frog. So he takes out the 3 wood and makes a hole in one.

"This frog is incredibly good luck", he thinks to himself. "Frog", he says, "We're going to Vegas!". So, sure enough, with the frog telling him to bet black or red, hit or stand, etc., the guy wins $100,000. He takes the frog up to his hotel room, puts it down, and says, "Frog, you have brought me great luck. I will do anything for you".

"Ribet - kiss me", says the frog.

"What the heck", says the guy. "This is a lucky frog". So, he kisses it, and it turns into the most beautiful 14 year old girl you have ever seen! Honest Judge that's how she got in my room.

The Chauffeur

2006-06-15T10:04:00.000-07:00

One day the Pope is coming to New York in his Limo and he said to the driver, "Why don't you let me drive for once."

The driver thinks to himself, "Well I can't say no to this guy, he's the pope." So the driver pulls over and they change places. The Pope was having fun, hauling butt down the freeway, dogging cars. After a while the driver taps on the window and tells the Pope, "slow down a bit, you
might get pulled over."

The Pope says, "ahhh, don't worry about it, I'm the Pope." So he rolls up the window and continues to drive very fast. After a few moments he gets pulled over. The cop walks to the car and the Pope rolls down the tinted window. The cop sees the Pope and says, "oh, I, ehhh, sorry, can you hold on a minute."

The Pope says, "sure"

The cop walks back to his car and radios back to the station. He says, "guys I just pulled over some one really important."

They ask who, "The President?."

"No more important."

"The president of another country."

"No more important."

"An ambassador."

"No even more important."

"Well who the hell is it."

"I don't know, but the Pope is the chauffeur."

Thou shall

2006-06-15T10:03:00.000-07:00

Thou shall not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human activities.

Thou shall not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass.

Thou shall not cross bridges before you come to them, for no one yet has succeeded in accomplishing this.

Thou shall face each problem as it comes--you can only handle one at a time anyway.

Thou shall not take problems to bed with you, for they make very poor bedfellows.

Thou shall not borrow other people's problems. They can better care for them than you can.

Thou shall not try to relive yesterday for good or ill, it is forever gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life and be happy now!

Thou shall be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear different ideas from your own. It is hard to learn something new when you are talking, and some people do know more than you do.

Thou shall not become "bogged down" by frustration, for 90 percent of it is rooted in self-pity and will only interfere with positive action.

Thou shall count thy blessings, never overlooking the small ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one.

life lessons

2006-06-15T10:02:00.000-07:00

To my kids who have left home and are on their own, I pass on
a list of life lessons:

1. Don't sweat your every mistake or faux pas. They make up
for the things you got away with that nobody knows about.

2. Avoid marrying anyone who deliberately flushes the toilet
when you're taking a shower.

3. When someone tells you that what he's about to say is "for
your own good," expect the worst.

4. The value of a dog is its constant reminder of how much fun
it is to be idiotic.

5. If you are lavishly praised, enjoy the taste but don't
swallow it whole.

6. When a politician says, "let me make something perfectly
clear, remember that he usually won't.

7. You children may leave home, but their stuff will be in
your attic and basement forever.

8. If someone says, "I know what I mean, but I just can't put
it into words," he doesn't know what he means.

9. Two people cannot operate a TV remote control in the same
room at the same time.

10. Don't waste time trying to be your own best friend. You
can't pat yourself on the back, and it's unsatisfying to cry
on your own shoulder. Find a real friend instead. (from Jodi)

Moon so bright, night so fine

Lost in the Forest

2006-06-06T10:41:00.000-07:00

There were three men who were lost in the forest were captured by cannibals. The cannibal leader told the prisoners that they could live if they pass a trial. The first step of the trial was to go to the forest and get ten pieces of the same kind of fruit. So all three men went separate ways to gather fruits.

The first one came back and said to the king, 'I brought ten apples.'

The king then explained the trial to him. 'You have to shove the fruits up your butt without any expression on your face or you'll be eaten.'

The first apple went in... but on the second one he winced out in pain, so he was killed.

The second one arrived and showed the king ten berries. When the king explained the trial to him he thought to himself that this should be easy. 1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8... and on the ninth berry he burst out in laughter and was killed.

The first guy and the second guy met in heaven.

The first one asked, 'Why did you laugh, you almost got away with it?'

The second one replied, 'I couldn't help it, I saw the third guy coming with coconuts.'

Materialistic Lawyer

2006-06-06T10:40:00.000-07:00

A very successful lawyer parked his brand-new Lexus in front
of his office, ready to show it off to his colleagues. As
he got out, a truck passed too close and completely tore off
the door on the driver's side. The lawyer immediately grabbed his cell phone, dialed 911, and within minutes a policeman pulled up.

Before the officer had a chance to ask any questions, the lawyer started screaming hysterically. His Lexus, which he had just picked up the day before, was now completely ruined and would never be the same, no matter what the body shop did to it.

When the lawyer finally wound down from his ranting and raving, the officer shook his head in disgust and disbelief. "I can't believe how materialistic you lawyers are," he said. "You are so focused on your possessions that you don't notice anything else."

"How can you say such a thing?" asked the lawyer.

The cop replied, "Don't you know that your left arm is missing
from the elbow down? It must have been torn off when the truck hit you."

"My God!" screamed the lawyer. "Where's my Rolex?"

A strange Funeral

2006-06-06T10:38:00.000-07:00

A man was leaving a 7-11 with his morning coffee and newspaper when he noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery.

A long black hearse(vehicle carrying the coffin) was followed by a second long black hearse about 50 feet behind. Behind the second hearse was a solitary man walking a pit bull(kind of dog) on a leash(strap by which the dog is held). Behind him were 200 men walking single file.

The guy couldn't stand the curiosity. He respectfully approached the man walking the dog and said "Sir, I know now is a bad time to disturb you, but I've never seen a funeral like this. Whose funeral is it?"

The man replied "Well, that first hearse is for my wife."

"What happened to her?"

The man replied "My dog attacked and killed her."

He inquired further, "Well, who is in the second hearse?"

The man answered, "My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my wife when the dog turned on her."

A poignant and thoughtful moment of silence passes between the two men.

"Sir, could I borrow that dog?"

"Get in line."

Engineer in Hell

An engineer dies and reports to the Pearly Gates.
Saint Peter checks his dossier and says, "You re an engineer, you re in the wrong place."
So the engineer reports to the Gates of Hell and is welcomed. Soon, the engineer becomes rather dissatisfied with the level of comfort in Hell; he begins to design and build improvements. Shortly thereafter, Hell has air conditioning, flush toilets, and escalators. Needless to say, the engineer is a pretty popular guy.
One day, God calls Satan and says with a sneer, "So, how are things in Hell?" Satan replies, "Hey, things are going great. We ve got air conditioning, flush toilets, and escalators. And, there s no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next."
"What! You ve got an engineer? That s a mistake - he should never have been sent to Hell... send him to me."
"Not a chance! I like having an engineer on the staff, and I m keeping him!"
God insists, "Send him back or I ll sue."
Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah, right. And where are you going to get a lawyer?"

Recommendation letter

2006-06-06T10:34:00.000-07:00

The following letter of recommendation was sent to a second-line manager:

While working with Mr. Sriram, I have always found him
working studiously and sincerely at his table without idling or
gossiping with colleagues in the office. He seldom
wastes his time on useless things. Given a job, he always
finishes the given assignment in time. He will always be
deeply engrossed in his official work, and can never be
found chit-chatting in the canteen. He has absolutely no
vanity in spite of his high accomplishment and profound
knowledge of his field. I think he can easily be
classed as outstanding, and should on no account be
dispensed with. I strongly feel that Mr. Sriram should be
pushed to accept promotion, and a proposal to administration be
sent as soon as possible.

A second letter soon followed:

SRIRAM WAS PRESENT WHEN I WAS WRITING THE REPORT
MAILED TO YOU TODAY. KINDLY READ ONLY THE ALTERNATE
LINES 1,3,5,7,... FOR MY TRUE ASSESSMENT OF HIM.

E-Business:

2006-06-06T10:33:00.000-07:00

E-Business began in India and long before the rest of the world had even heard of the term. The ball was set rolling by a corrupt minister in the central government. He would write'Not Approved' on all the fiiles sent to him by his assistants. Later when he had been suitably mollified by the concerned person he would recall the file and add an 'e' to 'Not' and put a colon after the word thus changing his original remark to 'Note: Approved".

Counterfeit Notes:

2006-06-06T10:27:00.000-07:00

Something went wrong at the forger's shop and he ended up with a bundle of counterfeit 15-rupee notes. Reluctant to scrap the lot, he decided to test their acceptability in a small town, far from the city.
Arriving there, he strolled over to a roadside tobacconist and asked for a one-rupee cigarette. His heart was in his mouth when he held out one of his 15-rupee notes to the man, but the tobacconist did not even give it a second look. He threw it into his till and handed over the change:two seven-rupee notes.

5 Good leads

2006-06-06T10:23:00.000-07:00

Tommy Shaughnessy enters the confessional box and says, "Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose woman."

The priest asks, "Is that you, little Tommy Shaughnessy?"

"Yes, Father, it is."

"And who was the woman you were with?"

"I can't be tellin' you, Father. I don't want to ruin her reputation."

"Well, Tommy, I'm sure to find out sooner or later, so you may as well tell me now. Was it Brenda O'Malley?"

"I cannot say."

"Was it Patricia Kelly?"

"I'll never tell."

"Was it Liz Shannon?"

"I'm sorry, but I'll not tell her name."

"Was it Cathy Morgan?"

"My lips are sealed."

"Was it Fiona McDonald, then?"

"Please, Father, I cannot tell you."

The priest sighs in frustration. "You're a steadfast lad, Tommy Shaughnessy, and I admire that. But you've sinned, and you must atone. Be off with you now."

Tommy walks back to his pew. His friend Sean slides over and whispers,

"What'd you get?"

"Five good leads," says Tommy.

Friendship

2006-06-06T10:21:00.000-07:00

***
Many people will walk in and out of your life.
But only true friends will leave footprints in
your heart.

***
Friends, you and me ....
You brought another friend ....
And then there were 3 ....
We started our group ....
Our circle of friends ....
There is no beginning or end ....

***
Friends come in all shapes and sizes,
and someone doesn't have to be
exactly like you to be a good friend.
What counts is that when you're together,
you make each other smile.

***
If everybody had a friend like you,
there would be a lot more smiles in this world!

***
A friend is one who comes in when the whole world has gone out.

***
Aye, there are some good things in life,
that fall away with the rest.
And of the best things on earth,
I hold that a faithful friend is the best.

***
Smiles come easier;
laughter sounds sweeter in unison...
Two who walk a road together
walk further than someone alone.
Friendship is the strongest kind of love.

Three old men

2006-06-06T10:17:00.000-07:00

Three men were discussing aging at the nursing home.

"Sixty is the worst age to be," said the 60-year-old. You
always feel like you have to pee. And most of the time, you
stand at the toilet and nothing comes
out!"

"Ah, that's nothin'," said the 70-year-old. "When you're
seventy, you can't even crap anymore. You take laxatives, eat
bran, you sit on the toilet all day and nothin' comes out!"

"Actually," said the 80-year-old, "Eighty is the worst age of
all."

"Do you have trouble peeing too?" asked the 60-year-old.

"No, not really. I pee every morning at 6:00. I pee like a
racehorse on a flat rock; no problem at all."

"Do you have trouble crapping?" "No, I crap every morning at
6:30."

With great exasperation, the 60-year-old said, "Let me get
this straight. You pee every morning at 6:00 and

crap every morning at 6:30. So what's so tough about being
80?"

"I don't wake up until 7:00."

What Should I do With the Bodies

2006-06-06T10:13:00.000-07:00

A guy dials his home phone from work.

A strange woman answers. The guy
says, "Who is this?"

"This is the maid.", answered the woman.

"We don't have a maid!"

"I was just hired this morning by the lady of the house."

"Well, this is her husband. Is she there?"

"Ummm .... she's upstairs in the bedroom with someone who I just figured was her husband."

The guy is fuming. He says to the maid, "Listen, would you like to make $50,000?"

"$50,000 is a lot of money for a poor maid like me, Certainly, what do I have to do?"

"I want you to get my gun from my desk in the den and shoot that witch and the jerk she is with."

"OK, give me a minute", the maid puts down the phone. The guy hears footsteps, followed by two gunshots.

The maid comes back to the phone. "What should I do with the bodies?"

"Throw them in the swimming pool!"

"What?! There's no pool here?"

Long pause...

"Uh .... is this 832-4821?"

Microsoft Again

2006-06-04T12:39:00.000-07:00

Once 4 friends were traveling through a car. All of them were engineers. One was an electrical engineer, other one was a chemical engineer, third was a mechanical engineer while the 4th was a software engineer from famous company called "Microsoft" (Bill gates wali). Suddenly the car stopped and all of them started starring at each other. Mechanical Engineer said "I think the battery of the car is down. Shall we have a look at it?".

Electrical Engineer said "No No I think the wiring connection must be wrong somewhere".

Chemical Engineer said "I think the pipe that takes the petrol must be choked. If fuel flow is not uniform how our car is going to move?".

Company Policy

2006-06-04T12:30:00.000-07:00

Put 5 apes in a room. Hang a banana from the ceiling and place a ladder underneath the banana. The banana is only reachable by climbing the ladder. Have it set up so any time an ape starts to climb the ladder, the whole room is sprayed with ice cold water. In a short time, all the apes will learn not to climb the ladder.
Now take one ape out and replace him with another one, No.6, and disable the sprayer. The new ape (no. 6) will start to climb the ladder and will be attacked unmercifully by the other four apes. He will have no idea why he was attacked.
Replace another old ape with new one. The same thing will happen, with ape No. 6 doing the most hitting. Continue this pattern until all the old apes have been replaced. Now all of the apes will stay off of the ladder, attack any ape that attempts to, and have absolutely no idea why they are doing it.
This is how company policy and culture is formed!!

Bill Gates ...

2006-06-03T10:39:00.000-07:00

Bill Clinton, Bill Gates and Al Gore were in an airplane that crashed. They're up in heaven, and God's sitting on the great white throne. God addressed Al first.

"Al, what do you believe in?"

Al replied, "Well, I believe that the combustion engine is evil and that we need to save the world from CFCs." God thinks for a second and said "Okay, I can live with that. Come and sit at my left.

God then addresses Bill Clinton. "Bill, what do you believe in?" Bill Clinton replies, "Well, I believe in power to the people. I think people should be able to make their own choice about things and that no one would ever be able to tell someone else what to do. I also believe in feeling people's pain." God thinks for a second and said, "That sounds good. Come and sit at my right."

God then addresses Bill Gates, "Bill Gates, what do you believe in?"

Bill Gates said, "I believe you're in my chair."

One day a man is walking down the beach and comes across an
old bottle. Picking it up, he pulls out the cork... Sure
enough, out pops a huge blue genie. The genie says, "Thank you
for freeing me from my prison. In return I will grant you
three wishes."

The man says "Perfect.... I always dreamed of this and I know
exactly what I want. First, I want 1 Billion dollars in a
Swiss ban account." Suddenly, there is a flash of light and a
detailed list with Swiss Bank account numbers appears in his
hand. He continues, "Next, I want a brand new red Ferrari
right here." There is another flash of light and a bright red
Ferrari appears right next to him. He continues, "Finally, I
want to be irresistible to women." A final blaze of light and
he turns into a box of chocolates!

Heart Attack

2006-06-02T11:48:00.000-07:00

A middle aged woman has a heart attack and is taken to the hospital. While on the operating table she has a near death experience. During that experience she sees God and ask if this is it. God says no and explains that she has another 30 years to live.

Upon her recovery she decides to just stay in the hospital and have a face lift, liposuction, breast augmentation, tummy tuck, etc. She even has someone come in and change her hair color. She figures since she's got another 30 years she might as well make the most of it. She walks out of the hospital after the last operation and is killed by an ambulance speeding up to the hospital. She arrives in front of God and complains: "I thought you said I had another 30 years.

God replies, "I didn't recognize you."

A Man was walking down a street when he heard a voice
from behind: "If u take one more step, a brick will fall
down on your head and kill you."

The man stopped and a big brick fell right in front of
him. The man was astonished. He went on, and after a
while he was going to cross the road. Once again the
voice shouted:

"Stop! Stand still! If you take one more step a car
will run over you, and you will die." The man did as
he was instructed, just as a car came careening around
the corner, barely missing him.

"Where are you?" the man asked. "Who are you?"

"I am your guardian angel," the voice answered.

"Oh, yeah?" the man asked. "And where the hell were
you when I got married?"

Graveyard

2006-06-02T11:36:00.000-07:00

One man went to the grave to visit his mothers tomb. He kept the flowers he had taken there and placed it on his mothers grave and prayed for some time. Then while he was returning, he heard a very loud cry from his left. He turned towards that direction and walked there.
He saw a man crying nearby a tomb. He was crying very aloud and uttering the words "Why did you die? Why did you die?" and crying with deep sorrow.
Seeing the man crying so hard, he asked him "Sir, why are you crying so much. Is the person your wife, father, mother, friend or any other close relative of yours?" The man crying told that he was his wife's first husband.

The interviewer said, "Well, what would you say to a package of 5 weeks vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, a company matching retirement fund for 50% of your salary, and a company car leased every 2 years -- say, a red Corvette?"

The Engineer sat up straight and said, "Wow! Are you kidding?"

And the interviewer replied, "Yeah, but you started it."

Quotes ...

2006-06-01T12:33:00.000-07:00

It is said an eastern monarch once charged his wise men
to invent a sentence, to be ever in view, and which
should be true and appropriate in all times and situations.
They presented him with the words, 'And this, too, shall
pass away.' How much it expresses! How chastening in the
hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!

--Abraham Lincoln

Ninety eight percent of the adults in this country
are decent, hardworking, honest Americans. It's
the other lousy two percent that get all the
publicity. But then, we elected them.

--Lily Tomlin

Husband and Wife

2006-06-01T12:19:00.000-07:00

A couple had been married for 25 years and also celebrated their 60th
birthdays. During the celebration a fairy appeared and said that because
they had been such a loving couple all those years, she would give one
wish each.

The wife wanted to travel around the world. The fairy waved her wand and
boom! She had the tickets in her hand.

Next, it was the husband's turn. He paused for a moment, then said shyly,
"Well, I'd like to have a woman 30 years younger than me." The fairy
picked up her wand and boom! He was 90.

Miss America

2006-06-01T12:17:00.000-07:00

In an American history discussion group, the professor was
trying to explain how societies ideal of beauty changes with
time. "For example, he said, "take the 1921 Miss America. She
stood five ft., one inch tall, weighed 108 pounds and had
measurements of 30-25-32. How do you think she'd do in today's
version of the contest?"

The class fell silent for a moment. Then one student piped up,
"Not very well."

"Why is that?" Asked the professor.

"For one thing," the student pointed out, "She'd be way too
old."

Poor guys

2006-06-01T12:03:00.000-07:00

Thought 1:
Life isn't fair to men. When we are born, our mother's
get the compliments and the flowers. When we are
married, our brides get the presents and the
publicity. When we die, our widows get the life
insurance. What do women want to be liberated from?

Thought 2:
The average man's life consists of - twenty years of
having his mother ask him where he is going; forty
years of having his wife ask the same question; and at
the end, the mourners wondering too.
