NEVER TRY TO OUTSMART A WOMAN

WOMEN ARE SMARTER THAN MEN

Due to inherit a fortune upon the death of his sickly, widower father
Charles decided he needed a woman to enjoy it with. Going to a
Singles' bar, he spotted a woman whose beauty took his breath away.
"Im just an ordinary man" he said walking up to her ;" but in just a
week or two, my father will die and I'll inherit 20 million dollars." The woman
went home with Charles and the next day she became his stepmother!!

WOMAN'S REVENGE

"Cash, Check or Charge?" I asked after folding items the woman wished to purchase.
As she stumbled for her wallet I noticed a remote control for a telivision set in
her purse. "So, do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked. "No," she replied,
"but my husband refused to come shopping with me, so I figured this was the most
legal evil thing I could do to him."

Wife Vs Husband

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not speaking a word. An
earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede
their position. As they passed a farm of mules, goats, and pigs, the husband
asked sarcastically, "Relative of yours."
"Yep," the wife replied ,"in-laws."

WORDS

A husband read an article to his wife about how many words women use a day.....
30,000 to a man's 15,000. The wife replied, "The reason has to be because we
have to repeat everything to men."
The husband then turned to his wife and asksed, "What?"

STUPID AND BEAUTIFUL

A man said to his wife one day, "I don't know how you can be stupid and so
beautiful all at the same time". The wife responded, "Allow me to explain.
God made me beautiful so that you would be attracted to me; God made me
stupid so that I would be attracted to you!"

THE BEAST

Husband and wife in the midst of a violent quarrel, and hubby was losing his
temper. "Be careful," he said to his wife, "you will bring out the animal
in me." "So what?," his wife shot back, "Who's afraid of a mouse?"

WIFE'S PROMISE

There was a man who worked all his life, had saved all of his money and was
a real miser when it came to his money. Just before he died, he said to his
wife, "When I die, I want you to take all my money and put it in the casket
with me. I want to take my money to the afterlife with me."
And so he got his wife promise him with all her heart than when he died, she
wouldput all of the money in the casket with him. Well, he died. He was stretched
out in the casket; his wife was sitting there in black, and her friend was sitting
next to her. When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertaker, got
ready to close the casket, the wife said, "Wait just a minute!" she had a box
with her. She came over with the box and put it in the casket. Then the undertakers
locked the casket down and rolled it away.
So her friend said, "Girl, I know you were'nt fool enough to put all that money
in there with your husband." The loyal wife replied, "Listen, Im a christian, I can't
go back on my word. I promise him that I was going to put that money in the casket
with him!!!?"
"I sure did," said the wife, "I got it all together, put it in to my account and
wrote him a cheque. If he can cash it, he can spend it."

NARAYANAMOOTHY'S VIEWS ON "STAYING LATE IN THE OFFICE"

It's half past 8 in the office but the lights are on....
PCs still running, Coffee machines still buzzing....
And Who's at Work?
Most of them?? Take a closer look....

All or Most specimens are 20 something male species of the human race....
Look closer....Again all or most of them are bachelors....
And why are they sitting late? Working Hard? No Way!!!

Let's ask on of them....

Here's what he says...."What's there to do after going home....
Here we get to surf, AC, Phone, Food, Coffee....That is why Im working late....
Importantly No Bossssss!!!!

This is the scene in most research centres and software companies and other
Off-shore offices.
Bachelors "Time-Passing" during late hours in the office just because they
say they've nothing else to do....

Now what are the consequences....Read on

"Working"(For record only) late hours soon becomes part of the
institute or company culture. With bosses more than eager to provide
support to those "working" late in the form of taxi vouchers, food vouchers and
of course good feedback (Oh, He's a hard worker....goes home only to change...!!!)

They are'nt helping things too...
To hell with bosses who don't understand the difference between "Sitting" late and "Working"

late!!

Very Soon, the boss start expecting all employees to put in extra working hours..

So, my dear bachelors let me tell you, life changes when you get married and start
having a family...Office is no longer a priority, family is...and that's when the
problem starts...because you start having commitments at home too...

For your boss, the earlier "hardworking" guy suddenly seems to become an "early leaver"
even if you leave an hour after regular time....after doing the same amount of work.

People leaving on time after doing their tasks for the day are labeled as Work-Shirkers...
Girls who thankfully always (Its changing nowadays.....though) leave on time are labeled
as "not up to it". All the while the bachelors put their own backs and carry on "working"
not realizing that they are spoiling the work culture at their own place and never
realize that they would have to regret at one point of time.

* So what's the moral of the story??? *
* Very clear, LEAVE ON TIME!!!
* Never put in extra time "*UNLESS REALLY NEEDED*"
* Don't stay back unnecessarily and spoil your company work culture, which in turn
cause inconvenience to you and your colleagues.

There are hundred other things to do in the evening

LEARN MUSIC....
LEARN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE.....
TRY A SPORT...TT, CRICKET....
IMPORTANTLY GET A GIRL FRIEND OR GAL FRIEND, TAKE HIM OR HER AROUND TOWN....
AND FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE NET CAFE RATES HAVE DROPPED TO AN ALL-TIME LOW
(PLUS NO FIREWALLS) AND TRY COOKING FOR A CHANGE.
TAKE A TIP FROM THE SMIRNOFF AD *"LIFE'S CALLING WHERE ARE YOU??"*

PLEASE PASS ON THIS MESSAGE TO ALL THOSE COLLEAGUES AND PLEASE DO IT BEFORE
LEAVING TIME, DON'T SIT BACK TILL MIDNIGHT TO FORWARD THIS.

EMBARASSING SITUATION

A very shy young man goes into a bar and sees a beautiful woman

sitting alone. After an hour he gathers enough courage to go and ask
her, "Er...

excuse me, but would you mind if I sat here beside you?"

She responds in a loud voice :

"NO, I DON'T WANT TO SPEND THE NIGHT WITH YOU!"

Everyone in the bar turns to stare at them. The young man is surprised,

shocked and embarrassed and goes back to his table.

After a few minutes the woman walks over to him smiles, apologizes,

and says, "You see, I'm a graduate student in psychology and I'm
studying how

people respond to embarrassing situations."

The young man responds loudly with,

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THREE THOUSAND RUPEES.

THATS TOO MUCH !"

hands explode into the air like flashy fireworks.

There is, however, one exception. A girl named Gita has not gone along
with the crowd.

The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different.

"Because I am not an American." replied Gita.

"Then", asks the teacher, "What are you?"

"I'm a proud Indian," boasts the little girl.

The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks
Gita. why she is an Indian.

"Well", my mom and dad are Indians, "so I'm an Indian too."

mom was an idiot, and your dad was an idiot, what would you be then?" A
pause, and a smile.

MOST FAMOUS MAN WHO EVER LIVED

One day many years ago at a school in South London a teacher said to the class of 5-year-olds, "I'll give $20 to the child who can tell me who was the most famous man who ever lived."

An Irish boy put his hand up and said, "It was St. Patrick." The teacher said, "Sorry Alan, that's not correct."

Then a Scottish boy put his hand up and said, "It was St. Andrew." The teacher replied, "I'm sorry, Hamish, that's not right either.

Finally, a Gujarati boy raised his hand and said, "It was Jesus Christ." The teacher said, "That's absolutely right, Jayant, come up here and I'll give you the $20."

As the teacher was giving Jayant his money, she said, "You know Jayant, since you are Gujarati, I was very surprised you said Jesus Christ." Jayant replied, "Yes, in my heart I knew it was Lord Krishna, but business is business!"

Hewlett Packard : Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard tossed a coin to decide whether the company they founded would be called Hewlett-Packard or Packard-Hewlett.

LG: Combination of two popular Korean brands Lucky and Goldstar.

Linux: Linus Torvalds originally used the Minix OS on his system which he replaced by his OS. Hence the working name was Linux (Linus' Minix). He thought the name to be too egotistical and planned to name it Freax(free + freak + x).His friend Ari Lemmke encouraged Linus to upload it to a network so it could be easily downloaded. Ari gave Linus a directory called linux on his FTP server, as he did not like the name Freax.(Linus' parents named himafter two-time Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling) .

HINGLISH TEACHER

A Schoolmaster from a remote rural area was transferred to a school in Bombay. He reported for duty two days before August 15 and, as was the practice in the school, was asked to address the assembly on Independence Day.

Here's his dynamite speech : Leddies and Gentulmens, Contemporaries, Children, "This is my first maiden speech. If small small mistakes get inside my speech, I ask pardon. Stickly speaking, I wanted to joint your school more fastly, but for the following reason.Too much time lost in getting slipper reservation in three-tyre compartment. The clerk rejected to give ticket. I put complaint on station master. He said me to go to lady clerk. At first she also rejected. With great difficulty she gave a birth only to my son. Anyway I thanked the station master because he was responsible for getting birth of my son.

We got independent because of great leaders like Gandhiji who get-outted all angrezi peoples from India. Tilak said Swaraj is our birth-rate and we shall halve it. Today we all halve our birth-rate. You children are future dynamic generators of the Nation. Look into future time only. No backside looking, or looking at your behind. Be like great like X' raj Ranjan of Germany or Presidents like Loosebelt.

You know genius, no? It is one per cent perspiration and ninety seven percent evaporation. They became great by reading great books. After we finish you here in the school, you can go to college and get B.A., M.A. and other decrease. Then you can become great liars in the supreme courts, shattered accountants, or leacherers in college.

The school is like a garden. You are the seeds, school is the soil. We will bury you in this soil, pour water of knowledge on your heads and one day will become great phools. Many vacancy job come in newspapers. Only yesterday I saw in paper "Wanted for refuted engineering firm: Generators, highpower condensors" so and so forth, etc. These jobs may be teknickel, but you can rise. If you have flare in
English, you can become teacher.

I am now ending this fastly. My God blast you! Thank you and thank God I am finished. Joy Hind!"

BEWARE OF KIDS

1. A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.

The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.

The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.

Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.

The little girl said, “When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah”.

The teacher asked, ” What if Jonah went to hell?”

The little girl: replied, “Then you ask him”.

2. A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She would occasionally walk around to see each child’s work.

As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was.

The girl replied, “I’m drawing God.”

The teacher: paused and said, “But no one knows what God looks like.”

Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing, the girl replied, “They will in a minute.”

3. One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head.

She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, “Why are some of your hairs white, Mom?”

Her mother replied, “Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white.”

The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said, “Momma, how come ALL of grandma’s hairs are white?”

4. The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture.

“Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, ‘There’s Jennifer, she’s a lawyer,’ or ‘That’s Michael, He’s a doctor.’

A small voice at the back of the room rang out, “And there’s the teacher, She’s dead. ”

5. A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying to make the matter clearer, she said, “Now, class, if I stood on my head, the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red in the face.”

“Yes,” the class said.


“Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position the blood doesn’t run into my feet?”

A little fellow shouted, “Cause your feet ain’t empty.”

6. The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray:

“Take only ONE. God is watching.”

Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies.

A child had written a note, “Take all you want. God is watching the apples.

Man in Heaven....

A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St.Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked, "What are all those clocks?"

St. Peter answered, "Those are the Lie-Clocks. Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time you lie the hands on your clock will move."

"Oh," said the man. Pointing to one clock he asked, "whose clock is that?"

"That's Mother Teresa's. The hands never moved, indicating that she never told a lie."

"Incredible," said the man. "And whose clock is that one?"

St Peter responded. "That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire life."

"Where is George W. Bush's clock?" asked the man.

"Bush's clock is in Jesus' office. He's using it as a ceiling fan."
