HOW ODD...

 

Today, 19/11/1999, is the last day of your life that all the digits of the date will be completely odd. Of course, with modern science you might be able to make it to the next odd date which will be in 1/1/3111, but don't count on it. A more attainable goal might be to live for the next all even digit day. This February we'll have the first day after over a millennium where all the digits are even, 2/2/2000. The last time this occurred was in 28/8/888. You will probably have a lot of even days, but today is your last odd day.

Perhaps one of the most interesting and colorful words in the English language today is the word "fuck". It is the one magical word which, just by its sound, can describe pain, pleasure, love, and hate. In language, "fuck" falls into many grammatical categories. It can be used as a verb, both transitive (John fucked Mary) and intransitive (Mary was fucked by John).

It can be an action verb (John really gives a fuck), a passive verb (Mary really doesn't give a fuck), an adverb (Mary is fucking interested in John), or as a noun (Mary is a terrific fuck). It can also be used as an adjective (Mary is fucking beautiful) or an interjection (Fuck! I'm late for my date with Mary). It can even be used as a conjunction (Mary is easy, fuck she's also stupid). As you can see, there are very few words with the overall versatility of the word "fuck". Aside from its sexual connotations, this incredible word can be used to

describe many situations:

 

1. Greetings "How the fuck are ya?"

2. Fraud "I got fucked by the car dealer."

3. Resignation "Oh, fuck it!"

4. Trouble "I guess I'm fucked now."

5. Aggression "FUCK YOU!"

6. Disgust "Fuck me."

7. Confusion "What the fuck.......?"

8. Difficulty "I don't understand this fucking business!"

9. Despair "Fucked again..."

10. Pleasure "I fucking couldn't be happier."

11. Displeasure "What the fuck is going on here?"

12. Lost "Where the fuck are we."

13. Disbelief "UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE!"

14. Retaliation "Up your fucking ass!"

15. Denial "I didn't fucking do it."

16. Perplexity "I know fuck all about it."

17. Apathy "Who really gives a fuck, anyhow?"

18. Greetings "How the fuck are ya?"

19. Suspicion "Who the fuck are you?"

20. Panic "Let's get the fuck out of here."

21. Directions "Fuck off."

22. Disbelief "How the fuck did you do that?"

23. It can be used in an anatomical description- "He's a fucking asshole."

24. It can be used to tell time- "It's five fucking thirty."

25. It can be used in business- "How did I wind up with this fucking job?"

26. It can be maternal- "Motherfucker."

Subject: WIFE 1.0 Software Alert!!

 

Dear Tech Support:

 

Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0. I soon noticed

that the new program began unexpected child processing that took up

a lot of space and Valuable resources. No mention of this was included

with the product information.

 

In addition Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs

and now launches during system initialization, where it monitors all

other system activity.

 

Applications such as Poker Night 10.3, Drunken Boys Night 2.5,

Football 5.0, Hunting and Fishing 7.5, and Racing 3.6 no longer run,

crashing the system whenever selected. I can't seem to keep Wife 1.0

in the background while attempting to run my favorite applications.

I'm thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0 , but the uninstall

doesn't work on Wife 1.0.

 

Please Help!!!!!!

 

Thanks,

A Troubled User.

 

 

REPLY: Dear Troubled User:

 

This is a very common problem that men complain about. It is due to

a primary misconception among men. Many people upgrade from

Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 thinking that it is merely an Utilities and

Entertainment program.

 

Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and is designed by its creator to run

everything! It is also impossible to delete Wife 1.0 and return to

Girlfriend 7.0. Hidden operating systems files cause Girlfriend 7.0

to emulate Wife 1.0 so nothing is gained.

 

It is impossible to uninstall, delete, or purge the program files from

the system once installed. You cannot go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because

Wife 1.0 is designed to not allow this. Some have tried to Girlfriend 8.0

or Wife 2.0 but end up with more problems than in the original system.

 

Look In your Wife 1.0 manual under, "Warnings- Alimony/Child Support".

I recommend that you keep Wife 1.0 and work on improving the situation.

 

I suggest installing the background application Yes Dear to alleviate

software augmentation. Having installed Wife 1.0 myself, I also suggest

that you read the entire section regarding, "General Partnership Faults

(GPF's)". You must assume all responsibility for any faults and problems

that occur, regardless of their cause. You will also find that GPF's are

cyclical.

 

The best course of action is to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE.

 

Avoid excessive use of C:\YES DEAR because ultimately you will have

to Give the APOLOGIZE command before the system will return to normal

anyway.

 

Remember the system will run smoothly as long as you take the blame

for All GPF's.

 

Wife 1.0 is a great program, but tends to be very high maintenance.

 

Wife 1.0 comes with several support programs such as Clean and Sweep 3.0 ,

Cook-it 1.5 (which replaces Burn-It 1.0) and, Do-Bills 4.2.

 

You must however be very careful how you use these programs. Improper

use will cause the system to launch the program NagYourAss 9.5. Once

this happens the only way to improve the performance of Wife 1.0 is to

purchase additional software. I recommend Flowers 2.1 and Diamonds 5.0

should this happen.

 

!!!!!WARNING!!!!!

 

DO NOT under any circumstances, install Secretary-With-Short-Skirt.

This application is not supported by Wife 1.0 and will cause irreversible

damage to the operating system.

 

Best of luck,

Tech Support

 


 

The following is an article which accurately descibes the influence of the

Hellenic language upon all that we say (or do) in this world of ours.

Please pass it on to others. If you subtract the Hellenic root words you

have almost nothing except for a few words that do not make any sense.

 

 

THE SIGNIFICANCE AND INFLUENCE OF THE HELLENIC LANGUAGE

 

By Dr. John N. Kalaras, Senior Professor@Chicago

 

 

MUSIC

 

 

The orchestras electrifyed the atmosphere, with musical organs like the

harp, the lyre, the aulos and hydraulos. The chorus in the odium

ortheatre synchronized with the organs harmoneously. Orchistrators

synthesized musical poetry, satyr and comedy, in a melodic symphony. The

rhythm and harmoneous eurythmy were unparalleled. Synthesis, synergy and

symphony idealized every orchistrated episode. The magnetic atmosphere,

the harmonic rhythm and the stereophonic echo generated magic.

 

 

DRAMA - THEATRE

 

 

The genesis of classical drama, was not symptomatic. A euphoria of

charismatic and talented protagonists showed fantastic scenes of historic

episodes. The prologue, the theme and the epilogue, comprised the trilogy

of drama while synthesis, analysis and synopsis characterized the

phraseology of the text. The syntax and phraseology used by scholars,

academicians and philosophers in their rhetoric, had many grammatical

idioms and idiosyncrasies. The protagonists, periodically used

pseudonyms. Anonymity was a syndrome that characterized the theatrical

atmosphere. The panoramic fantasy, the mystique, the melody, the

aesthetics, the use of cosmetic epithets, are characteristics of drama.

Even though the theatres were physically gigantic, there was no need

for microphones, because the architecture and the acoustics, would echo

isometrically and crystally-clear. Many epistimologists of

physics,aerodynamics, acoustics, electronics, electromagnetics can not

analyze-explain the ideal and isometric acoustics of Hellenic theatres

even today. There were many categories of drama: classical drama,

melodrama, satyric, epic, comedy, e.t.c. The syndrome of xenophobia or

dyslexia was overcome by the pathos of the actors, who practiced

methodically and emphatically. Acrobatics were also euphoric. There was a

plethora of anecdotal themes, with which acrobats would electrify the

ecstatic audience, with scenes from mythical and historical episodes.

Some theatric episodes were characterized as scandalous and blasphemous.

Pornography, bigamy, hemophelia, nymphomania, polyandry, polygamy and

heterosexuality were dramatized in a pedagogical way, so the mysticism

about them would not cause phobia or anathema or taken as anomaly, but

through logic, dialogue and analysis, the skepticism and the pathetic or

cryptic mystery behind them, would be dispelled. It is historically and

chronologically proven, that theatre emphasized pedagogy, idealism and

harmony. Paradoxically, it also energized patriotism, a phenomenon that

symbolized ethicacy, character and charisma.

 

 

MEDICINE - PHARMACOLOGY

 

 

Asclepius and Hipocrates, the patriarchs of pharmacology, used botany

as their methodology for therapy. Diagnosis, biopsy, prognosis and

then therapy, were techniques used with every anomaly of the soma-body.

Analysis and dialysis of protoplasms, neoplasms, chromosomes are common

methods. Schizophrenia, melancholy, epilepsy, hysteria, psycopathy are

psychotic symptoms, analyzed via hypnosis and metempsychosis. Anemia,

atrophy, stomachic dyspepsy, pachydermy, dermatitis, laryngitis,

hepatitis, menigitis are somatic anomalies analyzed biochemically.

Chronic anemia causes leukemia but radiology and kymotherapy can be the

therapeutic techniques. The stethoscope was used for asthmatic patheses

of the thorax. Sclerosis, atrophy or dystrophy of the skeleton is analyzed

by osteology, otitis by otology, leprocy and psoriasis by dermatology,

astigmatism and myopia by ophtalmology and of course the epistimology of

genesis would be emphasized through embriology in gynecology.

Pediatrists, podiatrists, orthopedics, orthodontists, pathologists,

neurologists are very common titles. Hypnotists use hypnosis and before a

syringe is used hypodermically, anesthisiologists use anesthetics. An

overdose of anesthetics could cause amnesia or paralysis. With neuratic

patheses, electrolysis was used to energize the neuropathic or atrophic

nerve.

 

 

THEOLOGY

 

 

Theology analyzed a mosaic of Eclisiastical themes. The thesis however

that theology takes is very dogmatic. There is a diametric and astronomic

antithesis between dogmatism and ideology. Dogmatism has mysticism, is

autarchic, myopic, autocratic, cryptic and even schismatic, axiomatic and

monolythic. Ideology emphasizes dialogue, energizes a climate of

logical and microscopic analysis of themes, philosophizes and produces a

euphoria of ideas and syllogisms. Theology has many dogmatic mysticisms,

which stigmatized certain chronological periods with panacea. A paradigm

is the iconolatry which caused pandemonium and schism among the

Patriarchs, Metropolitans and people. An anarchist or blasphemous

christian could be stigmatized and anathematized. Anathema was a

practical technique to exclude someone. When a patriarchic throne was

orphaned, the Ecumenical Synod would enthrone the new patriarch.

Paradoxically, the selection method was democratic. Monotheism and

polytheism is also analyzed by theologists. Eclisiastical hymns have

poetic rhythm and melody, that is why musical organs are allowed in

lyturgy. Prophets and Apostoles emphasized ethicacy, harmony and

euthanasia.

 

 

PHYSICS AND CHEMISTRY

 

 

Some of the topics emphasized and analyzed in physics and chemistry were:

thermodynamics, aerodynamics, biophysics, biology, biochemistry,

metallurgy, magneticism, static electricity etc. Some of the techniques

used are dialysis, electrolysis, synthesis while some of the materials

were asbestos, oxygen, metal, magnets. Along with the chemists,

geologists would analyze the seismogenic, the botanic and ecological

phenomena.

 

 

MATHEMATICS TRIGONOMETRY & GEOMETRY

 

 

Mathematic and geometric theorems and axioms, both practical and

theoretic were analyzed by mathematicians. Alphanumeric systems with

cryptic ormnemonic coding have been developed. Geometric schemes like the

prism, the pyramid, the circle, the parallilogram and other isometric

schemes like the pentagon, hexagon, octagon, are analyzed periodically.

With diagrams, the periphery, the perimetry, the diameter and the

dichotomy are studied. Analogous is the study of astronomy and astrology,

where tools like chronometers and telescopes could analyze the telemetry

and telekinisis of stars and meteoric phenomena of the galaxy. This study

generated the telepathy, the telephone, the telegram, the telegraph, the

telethon e.t.c.

 

 

POLITICAL - ECONOMIC - SOCIETAL

 

 

Economic systems basically symbolize the philosophy and the ideology of

their party. In a democratic political system, ideology and dialogue

characterize the basic methodology and strategy of the politicians.

However, systems like monarchy, tyrany or oligarchy are stigmatized

with megaeconomic and social problems. When monarchs or tyrants were

dethroned, they nostalgically agonized how to bring anarchy, so that they

may been throned again. Their chronic egomania and megalomania, their

apathy for philanthropy and their aenigmatic, problematic and pathetic

logic periodically stigmatized the political arena. Tyrants symbolize

anarchy, phobia, panic, chronic epidemy and paralysis of the

socioeconomic system. The agora was the physical location where

politicians, philosophers and scholars would analyze the problems

generated by monarchy, tyranny and periodically aristocracy. The basic

methodology was dialogue, rhetoric or poetry. The dialogue was

characterized by synthesis, analysis and synopsis, a systematic

phenomenon in every epistimologist's phraseology. The rhetoric was

pragmatic, yet charesmatic, characterized by harmony, magnetic fantasy

and practical talent. Historians and chronographers have systematically

shown that charesmatic politicians electrified the odium orthe agora with

their rhetoric, in which they used cosmetic epithets, eclectic idioms,

metaphors, paradigms and paradoxical phraseological idiosyncrasies.

Classical poets, satyrs, scholars and philosophers emphatically

critisized the anemic tyrants for their catastrophic and scandaleous

egomania. Paradoxically, inspite their idiosyncracies, some tyrants, like

Periandrosthe Corinthian, were charesmatic, philanthropic and sympathetic

to the economic problems and social climate. Some of them, who

strategized their economics ethically and logically, created economic

euphoria, which allowed architects to build odiums and theaters to

practice music and drama, gymnasiums and stadiums to organize

athletisism. Most of them, however, had the syndrome of apathy,

autocracy, autarchy, empathy, were myopic and spasmodic egomaniacs, who

antagonized everything that demonstrated an antithesis. However, the

climax of ideology, dialogue, epistimology, philosophy, logic and harmony,

are practiced in a democratic system. Here you have the forum at the

agora, where politics and socioeconomics are analyzed by politicians,

academicians and scholars. Politicians antagonized the philosophers

and scholars on ideology and practicality of economic systems and ideas.

They both, however, emphasized ethicacy, ideology, logic and harmoneous

political atmosphere. History has no parallel paradigm of a politician

with character andcharisma, like Pericles the Athenian, whose scholastic

and stochastic dynamism, rhetoric, fantasy, energy and ideology

characterized him as the ARCHITECT OF THE ATHENIAN DEMOCRACY!

 


 

These are definitely DIFFERENT!

 

In Lebanon, men are legally allowed to have sex with animals, but the

animals must be female. Having sexual relations with a male animal is

punishable by death.

(Like THAT makes sense.)

 

In Bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a woman's genitals, but

is prohibited from looking directly at them during the examination.

He may only see their reflection in a mirror.

 

Muslims are banned from looking at the genitals of a corpse. This also

applies to undertakers; the sex organs of the deceased must be covered

with a brick or piece of wood at all times.

(A brick??)

 

The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.

(Wonder which head?)

 

There are men in Guam whose full-time job is to travel the countryside

and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the privilege of having

sex for the first time...

Reason: under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden for virgins to marry.

(Let's just think for a minute; is there any job anywhere else in the

world that even comes close to this?)

 

In Hong Kong, a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her

adulterous husband, but may only do so with her bare hands.

The husband's lover, on the other hand, may be killed in any manner

desired.

(Ah! Justice!)

 

Topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, England - but only in

tropical fish stores.

(But of course!)

 

In Cali, Colombia, a woman may only have sex with her husband, and the

first time this happens, her mother must be in the room to witness the

act.

(Makes one shudder at the thought.)

 

In Santa Cruz, Bolivia, it is illegal for a man to have sex with a

woman and her daughter at the same time.

(I presume this was a big enough problem that they had to pass this

law?)

 

In Maryland, it is illegal to sell condoms from vending machines with

one exception: prophylactics may be dispensed from a vending machine

only "in places where alcoholic beverages are sold for consumption on

the premises."

 


 

 Two engineering students were walking across campus when one said,

"Where did you get such a great bike?"

 The second engineer replied, "Well, I was walking along yesterday minding my own business when a beautiful woman rode up on this bike. She threw the bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want."

 The second engineer nodded approvingly, "Good choice; the clothes probably wouldn't have fit."

 


 

What is the difference between Mechanical Engineers and Civil Engineers?

Mechanical Engineers build weapons, Civil Engineers build targets.

 


 

Actual employee appraisals

Have you got a progress review soon? The following are taken from real employee evaluations

 

1. Since my last report, this employee has reached rock bottom and shows signs of starting to dig.

2. His men would follow him anywhere, but only out of morbid curiosity.

3. I would not allow this man to breed.

4. This associate is really not so much of a has-been, but more of a definitely won't be.

5. Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap.

6. When he opens his mouth, it seems that this is only to change whichever foot was previously in there.

7. He would be out of his depth in a parking lot puddle.

8. This man has delusions of adequacy.

9. He sets low personal standards and the consistently fails to achieve them.

10. This employee should go far the sooner he starts, the better.

11. This employee is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot.

12. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

13. Got into the gene pool while the lifeguard wasn't looking.

14. A room temperature IQ

15. Got a full six-pack, but is missing the plastic thingy that holds it together.

16. A gross ignoramus - 144 times worse than an ordinary ignoramus.

17. A photographic memory but with the lens cover glued on.

18. A prime candidate for natural deselection.

19. Bright as Alaska in December.

20. One-celled organisms outscore him in IQ tests.

21. Donated his brain to science before he was quite finished using it.

22. Fell out of his family tree.

23. The gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the trains isn't coming.

24. This man has two brains: one is lost and the other is out looking for it.

25. He's so dense that light bends around him.

26. If brains were taxed, he would get a rebate.

27. Any dumber and he would have to be watered twice a week.

28. If you gave him a penny for his thoughts, you would get change back.

29. If you stand close enough to him, you can hear the ocean.

30. It's hard to believe that he beat out 1,000,000 other sperm.

31. One neuron short of a synapse.

32. Some drink from the fountain of knowledge, he gargled.

33. Was left on the Tilt-A-Whirl a bit too long as a baby.

34. Not the brightest bulb in the chandelier.

 


 

The "Salary Theorem" states that "Engineers can never earn as much as Business Executives and Sales People." This theorem can now be supported by a mathematical equation based on the following postulates:

 

1. Knowledge is Power.

2. Time is Money.

 

As every engineer knows:

 

Power = Work / Time

 

Since:

 

Knowledge = Power and Time = Money

 

It follows that:

 

Knowledge = Work / Money

 

Solving for Money, we get:

 

Money = Work / Knowledge

 

Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity, regardless of the amount of work done.

 

Conclusion: The less you know, the more you make.

UPGRADE BOYFRIEND5.0 TO HUSBAND1.0 :

 

Dear Tech Support,

 

Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed that the new program began making unexpected changes to the accounting modules, limiting access to flower and jewelry applications that had operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0. In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as Hot-sex 1.0 and Romance 9.9 but installed undesirable programs such as Football 5.0 and NBA 3.0. Conversation 8.0 no longer runs and HouseCleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. I've tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail.

 

Desperate Wife.

 

 

Dear Desperate Wife,

 

Keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an entertainment package, while Husband 1.0 is an operating system. Try to enter the command: C:/ I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME and install Tears 6.2. Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications: Guilty 3.0 and Flowers 7.0. But remember, overuse can cause Husband 1.0 to default to GrumpySilence 2.5, Happyhour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Beer 6.1 is a very bad program that will create "Snoring Loudly" wave files. DO NOT install MotherInLaw 1.0 or reinstall anotherBoyfriend program. These are not supported applications and will crash Husband 1.0. In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. Consider buying additional software to improve performance. I personally recommend HotFood 3.0, Lingerie 5.3 and Keep-a-nice-body 10.1

engineers & managers

 

A group of engineers and a group of manager are taking the train to reach a conference. Every manager has a ticket, however the whole group of engineers has only one ticket.

Suddenly one of the engineers shouts: "The conductor is coming ...." after which the group of engineers run to the toilet and squeeze into it.

The guard controls the manager, sees that the toilet is occupied and knocks at the toilet door:

"Ticket please .." One of the engineers pushes the ticket below the toilet door, the guard checks the ticket, pushes it back and moves on.

 

On the way back the manager decide to use the same trick and buy only one ticket for the whole group. They were really surprised when they got to know that the group of engineers has no ticket at all.

Again, one of the engineers sees the conductor coming and shouts: "The guard is coming ...". Immediately the group of manager rushes to the toilet and squeezes inside, the engineers instead move slowly to the other toilet and the last engineer of the group knocks at the toilet door with the business inside: "Ticket please ......

 

Moral of the story:

Manager use methods of engineers without understanding them...

 


 

A mother had 3 virgin daughters. They were all getting married within a short time period. Because Mom was a bit worried about how their sex life would get started, she made them all promise to send a postcard from the honeymoon with a few words on how marital sex felt.

 

The first girl sent a card from Hawaii two days after the wedding. The card said nothing but "Nescafe". Mom was puzzled at first, but then went to the kitchen and got out the Nescafe jar.

It said: "Good till the last drop." Mom blushed, but was pleased for her daughter.

 

The second girl sent the card from Vermont a week after the wedding, and the card read: "BensonHedges". Mom now knew to go straight to her husbands' cigarettes, and she read from the BensonHedges pack:

"Extra Long. King Size". She was again slightly embarrassed but still happy for her daughter.

 

The third girl left for her honeymoon in the Caribbean. Mom waited for a week, nothing. Another week went by and still nothing. Then after a whole month, a card finally arrived. Written on it with shaky handwriting were the words "British Airways". Mom took out her latest Harper's Bazaar magazine, flipped through the pages fearing the worst, and finally found the ad for BA. The ad said:

"Three times a day, seven days a week, both ways."

 


 

A man suspected his wife of having an affair with another man.

So, he hired the famous Chinese detective, Mee Lookee Yu, to watch and report any sly activities that may be occurring. A few days Later, he received this report:

He come house.

I watch.

He and she leave house.

I follow.

He and she get on train.

I follow.

He and she go in hotel.

I climb tree-look in window.

He kiss she.

She kiss he.

He strip she.

She strip he.

He play with she.

She play with he.

I play with me.

Fall out of tree, no see.

PUNJAB AIRLINES

 

Good Morning ladies and gentlemen.

This is your captain Banta Singh welcoming you to Punjab Airlines.

We apologize for the 4 days delay in taking off, owing to bad weather & some overtime I had put in the Bakery.

This is Flight 012 to New Delhi. Landing in Delhi is not guaranteed, but we will end up somewhere in the East.

And if Luck is in our favour, we may even be landing on your village.

 

Punjab Airlines has an excellent record for safety. In fact our safety standards are so high, that even the terrorists are afraid to fly with us. It is with pleasure that I announce that starting this year over 50% of our passengers have reached their destination.

For the ones that don't quite make it, Punjab Airlines staff have all the requisite experience for consoling the next of the kin.

Our stewardess Bubbly will be happy to brief you on our out of court settlement.

If our engines are too noisy for you, on passenger request we can arrange to turn them off.

 

To make your free fall to earth pleasant and memorable, we serve complementary Tea & Biscuits.

For our Religious passengers we are the only airline who can help you find out if there really is a God!

We regret to inform you, that today's in-flight movie will not be shown, as we forgot to record it from the television.

But for our movie buffs, we will be flying right next to the Air India Aircraft, so the movie will be visible from the right side of the window.

 

There is no smoking in this airplane. Any smoke that you see in this cabin is the early warning system, on the engines telling us to slow down!

Life jackets are positioned under the seats & free bathing costumes are available to aunties & swimming shorts to the uncles, for emergency jumps.

In order to catch important land marks, we try to fly as close as possible for the best view. If how ever you would like to have a closer look, do let us know. Our enthusiastic copilots sometimes flies right through the land mark.

Kindly be seated, keep your seat in an upright position for take off & fasten your seatbelts. For those of you who cannot find a seat belt fasten your own belt to the arm of your chair.

And for those of you who cannot find a seat, do not hesitate to get in touch with a flight attendant for your suitcase.

 

Sorry!! But I won't be flying with you today because I have to attend my nephew's wedding.

But please make yourself at home & help yourself to the cockpit.

Thank you for choosing Punjab Airlines.

Have a pleasant journey.

" BALLE BALLE ".

A plane is on its way to London when a blonde in Economy Class gets up and moves to the First Class section and sits down. The flight attendant watches her do this and asks to see her ticket. She then tells the blonde that she paid for Economy and that she will have to sit in the back.

The blonde replies, "I'm blonde, I'm beautiful, I'm going to London and I'm staying right here!".

The flight attendant goes into the cockpit and tells the pilot and copilot that there is some blonde bimbo sitting in First Class that belongs in Economy and won't move back to her seat. The copilot goes back to the blonde and tries to explain that because she only paid for Economy she will have to leave and return to her Economy seat. The blonde then replies, "I'm blonde, I'm beautiful, I'm going to London and I'm staying right here!". The copilot tells the pilot that he probably should have the police waiting when they land to arrest this blonde woman that won't listen to reason. The pilot says, "I'll handle this. I'm married to a blonde and have learned to speak 'blonde'!"

He goes back to the blonde, whispers in her ear, and without question she gets up and moves back to her seat in the Economy section. The flight attendant and copilot are amazed and asked him what he said to make her move without any fuss.

"I told her First Class wasn't going to London."

THE MEANING BEHIND THE JARGON

What the engineer says: What he really means!

 

A number of different approaches are being tried: We are still pissing in the wind.

Extensive report is being prepared on a fresh approach to the problem: We just hired three kids fresh out of college.

Close project coordination: We know who to blame.

Major technological breakthrough: It works OK, but looks very hi-tech.

Customer satisfaction is delivered assured: We are so far behind schedule, the customer is happy to get it delivered.

Preliminary operational tests were inconclusive: The darn thing blew up when we threw the switch.

Test results were extremely gratifying: We are so surprised that the stupid thing works.

The entire concept will have to be abandoned: The only person who understood the thing quit.

It's in the process: It is so wrapped up in red tape that the situation is about hopeless.

We will look into it: Forget it! We have enough problems for now.

Please note and initial: Let's spread the responsibility for the screw up.

Give us the benefit of your thinking: We'll listen to what you have to say as long as we don't have to change what we've already done.

Give us your interpretation: I can't wait to hear this bull!

See me/let's discuss: Come into my office, I'm lonely.

All new: Parts not interchangeable with the previous design.

Rugged: Too damn heavy to lift!

Lightweight: Lighter than RUGGED.

Years of development: One finally worked.

Energy saving: Achieved when the power switch is off.

Low maintenance: Impossible to fix if broken.

 


 

The Engineer in Hell

 

An engineer dies and reports to the pearly gates. St. Peter checks his dossier and says, "Aha, you're an engineer ... you've come to the wrong place." So the engineer reports to the gates of hell and is let in.  Pretty soon, he becomes dissatisfied with the level of comfort in hell and starts designing and building improvements. After a while, they've got air conditioning, flush toilets and escalators and the engineer is a pretty popular guy.

One day God calls Satan up on the telephone and says with a sneer, "So, how's it going down there in Hell?" Satan replies, "Hey, things are going great. We've

got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next."

God replies, "What??? You've got an engineer?  That's a mistake ... he should never have been sent down there. Send him back." Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer on the staff and I'm keeping him." God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue." Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah, right ... and just where are YOU going to get a lawyer?"

 


 

An architect, an artist and an engineer were discussing whether it was better to spend time with the wife or a mistress. The architect said he enjoyed time with his wife, building a solid foundation for an enduring relationship. The artist said he enjoyed time with his mistress, because of the passion and mystery he found there. The engineer said, "I like both. If you have a wife and a mistress, they'll each assume you are spending time with the other woman and you can go to the plant and get some work done."

 


 

A blind man and his guide dog enter a bar and find their way to a bar stool. After ordering a drink and sitting there for a while, the blind guy yells to the bartender, "Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?"

The bar immediately becomes absolutely quiet.

In a husky, deep voice, the woman next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, you should know something. The bartender is blonde, the bouncer is blonde and I`m a 6`

tall,200 lb. blonde with a black belt in karate. What`s more, the woman sitting next to me is blonde and she`s a weight lifter. The lady to your right is a blonde, and she`s a pro wrestler. Think about it seriously, Mister. You still wanna tell that joke ?"

The blind guy thinks a moment and says, "Nah, not if I`m gonna have to explain it five times."

The two American men are contemplating the virtues of suicide, while the American woman keeps on bitching about her body being her own, the true nature of feminism, how she can do everything that they can do, about the necessity of fulfillment, the equal division of household chores, how her last boyfriend respected her opinion and treated her much nicer and how her relationship with her mother is improving. But at least the taxes here are low and it is not raining.

The two Japanese men have faxed Tokyo and are waiting for instructions.

The two Australian men beat each other senseless fighting over the Australian woman, who is checking out all the other men, after calling them both "bloody wankers."

Both New Zealand men are searching the island for sheep.

The Irish began by dividing the island into North and South and setting up a distillery. They do not remember if sex is in the picture because it gets sort of foggy after the first few liters of coconut whiskey, but they are satisfied that at least the English are not getting any.

Economics:

 

Feudalism

 You have two cows.

 Your lord takes some of the milk.

 

Fascism

 You have two cows.

 The government takes both, hires you to take care of them and sells you the milk.

 

Pure Communism

 You have two cows.

 Your neighbors help take care of them and you all share the milk.

 

Applied Communism

 You have two cows.

 You must take care of them, but the government takes all the milk.

 

Totalitarianism

 You have two cows.

 The government takes them both and denies they ever existed. Milk is banned.

 

Pure Democracy

 You have two cows.

 You and your neighbors decide who gets the milk.

 

Representative Democracy

 You have two cows.

 Your neighbors pick someone to tell you who gets the milk.

 

Mexican Democracy

 You have two cows.

 The government takes both and drafts you into the army.

 

European Democracy

 You have two cows.

 The EU commission decides which regulations for feeding and milking apply. If there aren't any, they invent some. They pay you not to milk the cows. They take both cows, shoot one, milk the other and pour the milk down the drain. They then require you to fill out forms accounting for the missing cows.

 

American Democracy

 The government promises to give you two cows, if you vote for it.

 After the election, the president is impeached for speculating in cow futures. The press dubs the affair "cowgate," but supports the president. The cows sue you for breach of contract. Your legal bills exceed your annual income. You settle out of court and declare bankruptcy.

 

Capitalism

 You have two cows.

 You sell one and buy a bull.

 Your herd multiplies, and the economy grows.

 You sell them and retire on the income.

 

Enron Venture Capitalism

 You have two cows.

 You sell three of them to your publicly listed company, using letters of credit opened by your brother-in-law at the bank, then execute a debt/equity swap with an associated general offer so that you get all four cows back, with a tax exemption for five cows. The milk rights of the six cows are transferred via an intermediary to a Cayman Island company secretly owned by the majority shareholder who sells the rights to all seven cows back to your listed company. The annual report says the company owns eight cows, with an option on one more.

 


 

Answering some recent articles about Greeks involved in terrorist acts and perhaps on those plane crashes some months ago, the Greek Ministry of Foreign affairs issued a statement proving those allegations completely wrong:

 

12 REASONS WHY THE TERRORISTS WEREN'T GREEK

 

1. 6:45 am is too early for most Greeks to get up.

 

2. Greeks are always late, they would've missed all 4 flights.

 

3. Hot girls on the planes would have distracted them.

 

4. Greeks only use heir cellular phones to make missed calls and not to communicate with each other.

 

5. Free alcohol on the plane, get it?

 

6. The suspected car found outside of Boston Airport would have been a BMW or a Mercedes, not a Ford.

 

7. They wouldn't have a meeting in Afghanistan "there are no girls there", perhaps in Sweden.

 

8. Talking behind each other's back would start a big fight on the plane.

 

9. 18 Greeks can't even organize a simple lunch together! You think they can organize such an attack?

 

10. They would've been too busy fixing their hair.

 

11. Frappe isn't served on commercial airlines even Olympic.

 

12. Their mothers wouldn't have let them.

 


 

THE BEST BLONDE JOKE OF THE YEAR - SO FAR

 

A man was in his front yard mowing grass when his attractive blond female neighbour came out of the house and went straight to the mailbox. She opened it then slammed it shut stormed back in the house.

A little later she came out of her house again went to the mail box and again opened it, slammed it shut again. Angrily, back into the house she went. As the man was getting ready to edge the lawn, here she came out again, marched to the mail box, opened it and then slammed it closed harder than ever.

Puzzled by her actions the man asked her, "Is something wrong?" To which she replied, "There certainly is!"

My stupid computer keeps saying, "YOU'VE GOT MAIL."

 


 

At 8:02pm on February 20 this year it will be an historic moment in time. It will not be marked by the chiming of any clocks or the ringing of bells, but at that precise time, on that specific date, something will happen which has not occurred for 1,001 years and will never happen again.

As the clock ticks over from 8:01pm on Wednesday, February 20, time will, for sixty seconds only, read in perfect symmetry 2002, 2002, 2002, or to be more precise - 20:02, 20/02, 2002.

 

The last occasion that time read in such a symmetrical pattern was long before the days of the digital watch and the 24-hour clock – at 10.01am on January 10, 1001. And because the clock only goes up to 23.59, it is something that will never happen again.

 


 

When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered the ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat the problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 Billion to develop a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, underwater, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to 300C...

 

The Russians used a pencil.

 


 

While visiting England, George Bush is invited to tea with the Queen.

He asks her what her leadership philosophy is. She says that it is to surround herself with intelligent people. He asks how she knows if they're intelligent. "I do so by asking them the right questions," says the Queen.

"Allow me to demonstrate."

She phones Tony Blair and says, "Mr. Prime Minister. Please answer this question: "Your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or sister. Who is it?" Tony Blair responds, "It's me, ma'am." "Correct. Thank you and goodbye, sir," says the Queen. She hangs up and says, "Did you get that, Mr. Bush?"

"Yes ma'am. Thanks a lot. I'll definitely be using that!"

 

Upon returning to Washington, he decides he'd better put the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to the test. He summons Jesse Helms to the White House and says, "Senator Helms, I wonder if you can answer a question for me."

"Why, of course, sir. What's on your mind?"

"Uhh, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?" Helms hems and haws and finally asks, "Can I think about it and get back to you?" Bush agrees, and Helms leaves. Helms immediately calls a meeting of other senior Republican senators, and they puzzle over the question for several hours, but nobody can come up with an answer. Finally, in desperation, Helms calls Colin Powell at the State Department and explains his problem. "Now look here, son, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?"

Powell answers immediately, "It's me, of course, you idiot."

Much relieved, Helms rushes back to the White House and exclaims, "I know the answer, sir! I know who it is! It's Colin Powell!"

And Bush replies in disgust, "Wrong, it's Tony Blair."

The temperature of Heaven can be rather accurately computed from available data. Our authority is Isaiah 30:26, "Moreover, the light of the Moon shall be as the light of the Sun and the light of the Sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days." Thus Heaven receives from the Moon as much radiation as we do from the Sun, and in addition seven times seven (49) times as much as the Earth does from the Sun, or fifty times in all. The light we receive from the Moon is one ten-thousandth of the light we receive from the Sun, so we can ignore that. With these data we can compute the temperature of Heaven. The radiation falling on Heaven will heat it to the point where the heat lost by radiation is just equal to the heat received by radiation, i.e., Heaven loses fifty times as much heat as the Earth by radiation. Using the Stefan-Boltzmann law for radiation, (H/E)^4 = 50, where E is the absolute temperature of the earth (-300K), gives H as 798K (525C). The exact temperature of Hell cannot be computed, but it must be less than 444.6C, the temperature at which brimstone or sulphur changes from a liquid to a gas. Revelations 21:8 says "But the fearful, and unbelieving ... shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone." A lake of molten brimstone means that its temperature must be at or below the boiling point, or 444.6C (Above this point it would be a vapour, not a lake.) We have, then, that Heaven, at 525C is hotter than Hell at 445C.

A very handsome Greek man, relaxing at his favourite cafe in Krateron (a small Greek village in northern Greece), managed to attract a spectacular young blonde woman. He invited her back to his apartment, and after some small talk they made love.

After a pleasant interlude, and, at what seemed to him to be the appropriate time, he stretched, asked with a smile, "So... you finish?"

She paused for a second, frowned, and replied "No."

Pleasantly surprised, the handsome Greek man reached for her and had his way with her again. This time she's wild, thrashing about on the bed and climaxing with screams of passion.

Again, the handsome Greek man smiles, and asks, "You finish?"

And again, after a short pause, she returns his smile, cuddles closer to him, and says "No."

Stunned, but damned if this woman is going to outlast him, the young man reaches for his date. It takes all of his strength and he barely manages to do it, but they climax simultaneously, screaming, bucking, clawing and ripping bed sheets. It's dawn by then, and, entirely spent, the exhausted handsome Greek man falls onto his back, gasping. Barely able to turn his head, he looks into her eyes, smiles proudly, and asks, "You finish!?"

"No!" she shouts back. "Swedish!"

 


 

If an insect falls in a cup of coffee:

 

The Englishman:

Throws the cup away and walks out of the cafe

 

The American:

Asks the waiter for another cup of coffee.

 

The Mexican:

Takes the insect out and drinks the coffee

 

The Chinese:

Eats the insect and throws the coffee away

 

The Besieged Palestinian:

Drinks the coffee and eats the insect

 

The Israeli:

* Sells the coffee to the Americans and the insect to the Chinese.

* Screams that his security is in peril.

* Accuses the Palestinians of throwing the insect in his coffee.

* Alleges that Hizbullah, the Syrians and the Iranians advocate attacks with weapons of mass insects.

* Relates this vicious attack to Palestinian Terrorism; attacks on Human Rights, Anti-Semitism, the Holocaust, the Diaspora, the Exodus and Discrimination on Noah's Ark.

* Asks Arafat to immediately stop insects from flying in the air or landing in coffee cups.

* Re-occupies the West Bank and Gaza, razes houses, cuts off water and electricity, humiliates and terrorizes civilians, kills or maims anyone in his way.

* Imposes on the Americans more military aid.

* Demands a 100-year, billion-dollar, loan from America to buy another cup of coffee.

* Claims life-time free coffee from the cafe as compensation.

 

They've got the best lawyers!

A few years back, a survey was conducted by the U.N. worldwide. The only question asked was:

 

"Would you please give your most honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?"

 

The survey was a HUGE failure:

 

In Africa they did not know what "food" meant.

In Western Europe they did not know what "shortage" meant.

In Eastern Europe they did not know what "opinion" meant.

In the Middle East they did not know what "solution" meant.

In South America they did not know what "please" meant.

In Asia they did not know what "honest" meant.

And in the USA they did not know what "the rest of the world" meant.

A Good Lesson

 

A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him.

 

When class began, wordlessly he picked up a large empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks right to the top, rocks about 2" in diameter. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them in to the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks. The students laughed. He asked his students again if the jar was full? They agreed that yes, it was. The professor then picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.

 

"Now," said the professor, "I want you to recognize that this is your life. The rocks are the important things – your family, your partner, your health, your children - anything that is so important to you that if it were lost, you would be nearly destroyed. The pebbles are the other things in life that matter, but on a smaller scale. The pebbles represent things like your job, your house, your car. The sand is everything else. The small stuff. If you put the sand or the pebbles into the jar first, there is no room for the rocks. The same goes for your life. If you spend all your energy and time on the small stuff, material things, you will never have room for the things that are truly most important. Pay attention to the things that are critical in your life. Play with your children. Take your partner out dancing. There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party and fix the disposal. " Take care of the rocks first - the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just pebbles and sand.

Santa Claus: An Engineering Analysis

 

1. No known species of reindeer can fly. But there are 300,000 species of living organisms yet to be classified, and while most of these are insects and germs, this does not completely rule out flying reindeer which only Santa has ever seen.

 

2. There are 2 billion children in the world (persons under 18). But since Santa doesn't (appear) to handle Muslim, Hindu, Jewish, or Buddhist children, that reduces the workload by 85% of the total -leaving 378 million according to the Population Reference Bureau. At an average (census) rate of 3.5 children per household, that's 91.8 million homes. One presumes there is at least one good child per house.

 

3. Santa has 31 hours of Christmas to work with, thanks to the different time zones and the rotation of the earth, assuming he travels east to west (which seems logical). This works out to 822.6 visits per second. This is to say that for each Christian household with good children, Santa has 1/1000 th of a second to park, hop out of the sleigh, jump down the chimney, fill the stocking, distribute the remaining presents under the tree, eat whatever snacks have been left, get back up the chimney, get back into the sleigh and move on to the next house. Assuming that each of these 91.8 million stops are evenly distributed around the earth which, of course, we know to be false but for the purposes of our calculations we will accept), we are now talking about .78 miles per household, a total trip of 75.5 million miles, not counting stops to do what most of us do at least once every 31 hours, plus feeding, etc.

That means that Santa's sleigh is moving at 650 miles per second, 3000 times the speed of sound. For purposes of comparison, the fastest man-made vehicle on earth, the Ulysses space probe, move at a poky 27.4 miles per second – a conventional reindeer can run, at tops 15 miles per hour.

 

4. The payload on the sleigh adds another interesting element. Assuming each child gets nothing more then a medium sized lego set ( 2 pounds ), the sleigh is carrying 321,300 tons, not counting Santa, who is invariably described as overweight. On land, conventional reindeer can pull no more than 300 pounds. Even granting the 'flying reindeer' can pull TEN TIMES that normal amount, we cannot the job with eight, or even nine, We need 214,200 reindeer. This increased the payload- not even counting the weight of the sleigh to 353,430 tons. Again for comparison - this is four times the weight of the Queen Elizabeth.

 

5. 353,000 tons travelling at 650 miles per second creates enormous air resistance. This will heat the reindeer up in the same fashion as spacecrafts re-entering the earth's atmosphere. The lead pair will absorb 14.3 quintillion joules of energy per second. Each. In short, they will burst into flames almost instantaneously, exposing the reindeer behind them, and creating a deafening sonic boom in their wake. The entire reindeer team will be vaporized with 4.26 thousandths of a second. Santa meanwhile, will be subject to centrifugal forces 17,500.06 times greater than gravity. A 250 pound Santa ( which seems ludicrously slim) would be pinned to the back of the sleigh by a 4,315,015 pound force.

Dear Sirs:

 

I have the solution for preventing hijackings, and at the same time getting our airline industry back on its feet.

Since men of the Muslim religion are not allowed to look at naked women we should require all female flight attendants to perform their job naked.

Muslims would be afraid to get on the planes for fear of seeing a naked woman, and of course, every businessman in this country would start flying again in hope of seeing a naked woman.

We would have no more hijackings, and the airline industry would have record sales.

 

Now why didn't Bush think of this? Why do I still have to do everything myself?

 

Sincerely,

 

Bill Clinton

 


 

A married couple are driving along a highway doing sixty mile per hour (mph), the Husband behind the wheel. His wife suddenly looks over at him and says, "Honey, I know we've been married for twenty years, but I want a divorce."

The husband says nothing but slowly increases speed to seventy mph.

She then says, "I don't want you to try to talk me out of it, because I've been having an affair with your best friend, and he's a better lover than you are."

Again the husband stays quiet but speeds up as his anger increases.

"I want the house," she insists, pressing her luck.

Again the husband speeds up, to eighty mph.

She says, "I want the car, too," but he just drives faster and faster.

By now he's up to ninety mph.

"All right," she says, "I want the bank accounts, and all the credit cards, too."

The husband slowly starts to veer toward a bridge overpass piling.

This makes her a bit nervous, so she says, "Isn't there anything you want?"

The husband says, "No, I've got everything I need."

"Oh, really," she says, "so what have you got?"

Right before they slam into the wall at a hundred mph, the husband smiles and says,

"The airbag."

 


 

Start with a cage containing five monkeys. Inside the cage, hang a banana on a string and place a set of stairs under it. Before long, a monkey will go to the stairs and start to climb towards the banana. As soon as he touches the stairs, spray all of the other monkeys with cold water. After a while, another monkey makes an attempt with the same result - all the other monkeys are sprayed with cold water. Pretty soon, when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it.

 

Now, put away the cold water. Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one. The new monkey sees the banana and wants to climb the stairs. To his surprise and horror, all of the other monkeys attack him. After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs, he will be assaulted. Next, remove another of the original five monkeys and replace it with a new one. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment with enthusiasm!

 

Likewise, replace a third original monkey with a new one, then a fourth, and then the fifth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked. Most of the monkeys that are beating him have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs or why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey.

 

After replacing all the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, no monkey ever again approaches the stairs to try for the banana. Why not? Because as far as they know that's the way it's always been done around here.

 

And that my dear friends, is how company policy begins!

Corporate lesson 1

 

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower when the doorbell rings. After a few seconds of arguing overwhich one should go and answer the doorbell, the wife gives up, quickly wraps herself up in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next door neighbour. Before she says a word, Bob says,"I'll give you 800dollars to drop that towel that you have on." After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob.

After a few seconds, Bob hands her 800 dollars and leaves. Confused, but excited about her good fortune, the woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets back to the bathroom, her husband asks from the shower "Who was that?" "It was Bob the next door neighbour," she replies.

"Great," the husband says, "did he say anything about the 800 dollars he owes me?"

 

Moral of the story: If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk in time with your stakeholders, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.

 

Corporate lesson 2

 

A priest was driving along and saw a nun on the side of the road, he stopped and offered her a lift which she accepted. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to open and reveal a lovely leg. The priest had a look and nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthfully slid his hand up her leg. The nun looked at him and immediately said, "Father,remember psalm 129?" The priest was flustered and apologized profusely. He forced himself to remove his hand. However, he was unable to remove his eyes from her leg. Further on while changing gear, he let his hand slide up her leg again. The nun once again said, "Father, remember psalm 129?" Once again the priest apologized "Sorry sister but the flesh is weak." Arriving at the convent, the nun got out gave him a meaningful glance and went on her way. On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to retrieve a bible and looked up psalm 129. It Said, "Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory."

"I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat, without a care in the world." Poof! She's gone. In astonishment, "Me next! Me next!" says the sales rep. "I want to be in Hawaii, relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of pina coladas and the love of my life."

WARNING THIS ONE IS DANGEROUS

 

If you receive an e-mail entitled "Bad times", delete it IMMEDIATELY. Do not open it.

Apparently this one is pretty nasty. It will not only erase everything on your hard drive, but it will also delete anything on disks within 20 feet of your computer. It demagnetises the strips on ALL of your credit cards. It reprograms your PIN number, screws up the tracking on your VCR and uses subspace field harmonics to scratch any CD's you attempt to play. It will program your phone auto-dial to call only 0898 numbers. This virus will mix antifreeze into your fish tank. IT WILL CAUSE YOUR TOILET TO FLUSH WHILE YOU ARE SHOWERING. It will drink ALL your beer.

 

FOR GOD'S SAKE, ARE YOU LISTENING??

 

It will leave dirty underwear on the coffee table when you are expecting company. It will replace your shampoo with hair remover and your hair remover with Regaine. It will cause you to run with scissors and throw things in a way that is only fun until someone loses an eye. It will rewrite your backup files, changing all your active verbs to passive tense and incorporating undetectable misspellings which grossly change the interpretations of key sentences. If the "Badtimes" message opened in a Windows 95/98 environment, it will leave the toilet seat up and leave your hairdryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub. It will refill your skimmed milk with Milk of Magnesia!

 

******* WARN AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN. *******

 

And if you don't send this to 5000 people in 20 seconds you'll fart so hard that your right leg will spasm and shoot straight out in front of you, sending sparks that will ignite the person nearest you.

Send to everyone...

 

In case you are a blonde, this is a joke.

 


 

Lost Chapter in Genesis

 

Adam was hanging around the garden of Eden feeling very lonely. So God asked him, "What's wrong with you?"

Adam said he didn't have anyone to talk to.

  

God said that He was going to make Adam a companion and that it would be a woman.

  

He said, "This person will gather food for you, cook for you, and when  you discover clothing, she will wash it for you.

  

She will always agree  with every decision you make.

  

She will bear your children and never ask you to get up in the  middle of the night to take care of them.

  

She will not nag you and will always be the first to admit she was wrong when you've had a disagreement.

  

She will never have a headache and will freely give you love and passion whenever you need it."

  

 

Adam asked God, "What will a woman like this cost?"

  

God replied, "An arm and a leg."

  

Then Adam asked, "What can I get for a rib?"

  

The rest is history....

The New Bride

A young Japanese girl had been taught all her life that when she married she was to please her husband and never upset him.

So the first morning of her honeymoon the young Japanese bride crawled out of bed after making love, stooped down to pick up her husband's clothes, and accidentally lets out a big fart.

She looked up and said: "Aww! So sorry...excuse please, front hole so happy back hole laugh out loud!

 


 

We always hear "The Rules" from the female side. Now here are the rules from the male side. These are our rules! Please note... these are all numbered "1" ON PURPOSE!

 

1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

 

1. Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not quests to see if we can find the perfect present yet again!

 

1. Sometimes we are not thinking about you. Live with it.

 

1. Sunday = sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.

 

1. Don't cut your hair. EVER! Long hair is always more attractive than short hair. One of the big reasons guys fear getting married is that married women always cut their hair, and by then you're stuck with her.

 

1. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going to think of it that way.

 

1. Crying is blackmail.

 

1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!

 

1. We don't remember dates. Mark birthdays and anniversaries on the calendar. Remind us frequently beforehand.

 

1. Most guys own three pairs of shoes - tops. What makes you think we'd be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?

 

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

 

1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

 

1. A headache that last for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.

 

1. Check your own oil! Please.

 

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.

 

1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.

 

1. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us. We refuse to answer.

 

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.

 

1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.

 

1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.

 

1. Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and neither do we.

 

1. The relationship is never going to be like it was the first four months we were going out. Get over it. And quit whining to your girlfriends.

 

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. A peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.

 

1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

 

1. We are not mind readers and we never will be. Our lack of mind-reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.

 

1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

 

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.

 

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine. Really.

 

1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as who's better Biggie or Tupac, those new 22in' car rims, or basketball.

 

1. You have enough clothes.

 

1. You have too many shoes.

 

1. It is neither in your best interest or ours to take the quiz together. No, it doesn't matter which quiz.

 

1. I am in shape. ROUND is a shape.

 

1. Thank you for reading this; Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight, but did you know we really don't mind that, it's like camping.

 


 

WHY WE LOVE CHILDREN

 

A little boy was doing his math homework.

He said to himself, "Two plus five, that son of a bitch is seven.

Three plus six, that son of a bitch is nine...."

His mother heard what he was saying and gasped, "What are you doing?"

The little boy answered, "I'm doing my math homework, Mom."

"And this is how your teacher taught you to do it?", the mother asked.

"Yes," he answered.

Infuriated, the mother asked the teacher the next day, "What are you teaching my son in math?"

The teacher replied, "Right now, we are learning addition."

The mother asked, "And are you teaching them to say two plus two, that son of a bitch is four?"

After the teacher stopped laughing, she answered,

"What I taught them was, two plus two, THE SUM OF WHICH, is four."

 

 

One day a teacher read the story Chicken Little to her class. She came to the part of the story where Chicken Little tried to warn the farmer. She read, ".... and so Chicken Little went up to the farmer and said, "The sky is falling, the sky is falling!"

The teacher paused then asked the class, "And what do you think that farmer said?"

One little girl raised her hand and said, "I think he said: 'Holy Shit! A talking chicken!'"

The teacher was unable to teach for the next 10 Minutes

 

 

A kindergarten pupil told his teacher he'd found a cat.

She asked him if it was dead or alive.

"Dead." She was informed.

"How do you know?" she asked her pupil.

"Because I pissed in its ear and it didn't move," answered the child innocently.

"You did WHAT?!?" the teacher exclaimed in surprise.

"You know," explained the boy, "I leaned over and went 'Pssst!' and it didn't move."

 

 

A small boy is sent to bed by his father.

Five minutes later....

"Da-ad...."

"What?

"I'm thirsty. Can you bring drink of water?"

"No. You had your chance. Lights out."

Five minutes later:

"Da-aaaad....."

"WHAT?"

"I'm THIRSTY. Can I have a drink of water??"

"I told you NO!" If you ask again, I'll have to spank you!!"

Five minutes later......

"Daaaa-aaaad....."

"WHAT!"

"When you come in to spank me, can you bring a drink of water?"

 

 

An exasperated mother, whose son was always getting into mischief, finally asked him, "How do you expect to get into Heaven?"

The boy thought it over and said, "Well, I'll run in and out and in an out and keep slamming the door until St. Peter says, 'For Heaven's sake, Dylan, come in or stay out!'"

 

 

One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her son into bed. She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight?"

The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug.

"I can't dear," she said. "I have to sleep in Daddy's room."

A long silence was broken at last by his shaky little voice:

"The big sissy."

 

 

It was that time, during the Sunday morning service, for the children's sermon. All the children were invited to come forward. One little girl was wearing a particularly pretty dress and, as she sat down, the pastor leaned over and said, "That is a very pretty dress. Is it your Easter Dress?"

The little girl replied, directly into the pastor's clip-on microphone:

"Yes, and my Mom says it's a bitch to iron."

 

 

When I was six months pregnant with my third child, my three year old came into the room when I was just getting ready to get into the shower. She said, Mommy, you are getting fat!"

I replied, "Yes, honey, remember Mommy has a baby growing in her tummy"

"I know," she replied, but what's growing in your butt?"

 


 

Top Ten WORST things to say to a police officer:

 

1) I can't reach my license unless you hold my beer.

2) Sorry, Officer, I didn't realize my radar detector wasn't plugged in.

3) Aren't you the guy from the Village People?

4) Hey, you must've been doin' about 125 mph to keep up with me! Good job!

5) I thought you had to be in relatively good physical condition to be a police officer.

6) I was going to be a cop, but I decided to finish high school instead.

7) Bad cop! No donut!

8) You're not gonna check the trunk, are you?

9) Gee, that gut sure doesn't inspire confidence.

10) Didn't I see you get your butt kicked on Cops ?

 


 

A guy sitting at an airport bar in Atlanta noticed a beautiful woman sitting next to him.

He thought to himself, "Wow, she's so gorgeous she must be a flight attendant. But which airline does she work for?"

 

Hoping to pick her up, he leaned towards her and uttered the Delta slogan: "Love to fly and it shows?" She gave him a blank, confused stare and he immediately thought to himself, "Ooh shit, she doesn't work for Delta".

 

A moment later, another slogan popped into his head. He leaned towards her again, "Something special in the air?" Once again she gave him the same confused look.

 

He mentally kicked himself and scratched American Airlines off the list.

Next he tried the United slogan: "I would really love to fly your friendly skies?"

 

This time the woman turned on him. "What the f**k do you want?" she snapped. The man smiled, then slumped back in his chair and said...

"Ahhh, Olympic

Just imagine sitting in traffic on your way to work and hearing this.

 

Many Chicago folks DID hear this on the WBAM FM morning show in Chicago.

The DJs play a game where they award winners great prizes. The game is called "Mate Match". The DJs call someone at work and ask if they are married or seriously

involved with someone. If the contestant answers "yes", he or she is then asked 3 random yet highly personal questions.

The person is also asked to divulge the name of their partner (with phone number) for verification. If their partner answers those same three questions correctly, they both win the prize. One particular game, however, several months ago made the City of Big Shoulders drop to its knees with laughter and is possibly the funniest thing I've heard yet. Anyway, here's how it all went down:

 

DJ: "Hey! This is Edgar on WBAM. Have you ever heard of 'Mate Match'?"

Contestant: (laughing) "Yes, I have."

DJ: "Great! Then you know we're giving away a trip to Orlando, Florida if you win. What is your name? First only please."

Contestant: "Brian."

DJ: "Brian, are you married or what?"

Brian: "Yes."

DJ: "Yes? Does that mean you're married or you're what?"

Brian: (laughing nervously) "Yes, I am married."

DJ: "Thank you. Now, what is your wife's name? First only please."

Brian: "Sara."

DJ: "Is Sara at work, Brian?"

Brian: "She is gonna kill me."

DJ: "Stay with me here, Brian! Is she at work?"

Brian: (laughing) "Yes, she's at work."

DJ: "Okay, first question - when was the last time you had sex?"

Brian: "She is gonna kill me."

DJ: "Brian! Stay with me here!"

Brian: "About 8 o'clock this morning."

DJ: "Atta boy, Brian."

Brian: (laughing sheepishly) "Well..."

DJ: "Question #2 - How long did it last?"

Brian: "About 10 minutes."

DJ: "Wow! You really want that trip, huh? No one would ever have said that if a trip wasn't at stake."

Brian: "Yeah, that trip sure would be nice."

DJ: "Okay. Final question. Where did you have sex at 8 o'clock this morning?"

Brian: (laughing hard) "I, ummm, I, well..."

DJ: "This sounds good, Brian. Where was it at?"

Brian: "Not that it was all that great, but her mom is staying with us for a couple of weeks..."

DJ: "Uh huh..."

Brian: "...and the Mother-In-Law was in the shower at the time."

DJ: "Atta boy, Brian."

Brian: "On the kitchen table."

DJ: "Not that great?? That is more adventure than the previous hundred times I've done it.

Okay folks, I will put Brian on hold, get this wife's work number and call her up. You listen to this."

 

3 minutes of commercials follow.

 

DJ: "Okay audience, let's call Sarah, shall we?" (touch tones.....ringing....)

Clerk: "Kinkos."

DJ: "Hey, is Sarah around there somewhere?"

Clerk: "This is Sarah."

DJ: "Sarah, this is Edgar with WBAM. We are live on the air right now and I've been talking with Brian for a couple of hours now."

Sarah: (laughing) "A couple of hours?"

DJ: "Well, a while now. He is on the line with us. Brian knows not to give any answers away or you'll lose. Soooo ..... do you know the rules of 'Mate Match'?"

Sarah: "No."

DJ: "Good!"

Brian: (laughing)

Sarah: (laughing) "Brian, what the hell are you up to?"

Brian (laughing) "Just answer his questions honestly, okay? Be completely honest."

DJ: "Yeah yeah yeah. Sure. Now, I will ask you 3 questions, Sarah. If your answers match Brian's answers, then the both of you will be off to Orlando, Florida for 5 days on us. Disney World. Sea World. Tickets to the Magic's game. The whole deal. Get it Sarah?"

Sarah: (laughing) "Yes."

DJ: "Alright. When did you last have sex, Sarah?"

Sarah: "Oh God, Brian....uh, this morning before Brian went to work."

DJ: "What time?"

Sarah: "Around 8 this morning."

DJ: "Very good. Next question. How long did it last?"

Sarah: "12, 15 minutes maybe."

DJ: "Hmmmm. That's close enough. I am sure she is trying to protect his manhood. We've got one last question, Sarah. You are one question away from a trip to Florida. Are you ready?"

Sarah: (laughing) "Yes."

DJ: "Where did you have it?"

Sarah: "OH MY GOD, BRIAN!! You didn't tell them that, did you?"

Brian: "Just tell him, honey."

DJ: "What is bothering you so much, Sarah?"

Sarah: "Well..."

DJ: Come on Sarah.....where did you have it?

Sarah: "In the ass....."

After a long pause, the DJ said, "Folks, we need to take a station break"
