I Think We All Have Spoken To Him /bd

December 8, 2007

We’re almost on a first-name basis.

Mujibar was trying to get a job in India.

The Personnel Manager said, “Mujibar, you have passed all the tests, except one. Unless you pass it you
cannot qualify for this job.”

Mujibar said, “I am ready.”

The manager said, “Make a sentence using the words Yellow, Pink and Green ”

Mujibar thought for a few minutes and said, “Mister manager, I am ready”

The manager said, “Go ahead.”

Mujibar said, “The telephone goes green, green, and I Pink it up, and say, Yellow’, this is Mujibar.”

Mujibar now works as a technician at a call center for computer problems.

No doubt you have spoken to him. I know I have. 
 

American mileage

December 8, 2007

A recent study found the average American walks about 900 miles per year. Another study found Americans
drink, on average, 22 gallons of beer a year.

That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.

Kind Of Makes You Proud To Be American.

First it was global cooling, then warming, now this..?

Doomsday, yet again, and with even more convincing “evidence!” We did it folks. Now the entire universe is coming to an end, and all because man caused it! (Sarcasim) 🙂

Mankind ‘shortening the universe’s life’

By Roger Highfield, Science Editor

Last Updated: 12:01am GMT 21/11/2007

Forget about the threat that mankind poses to the Earth: our activities may be shortening the life of the universe too.

  • Parallel universe proof boosts time travel hopes
  • Quantum theory and relativity explained
  • Surfer Dude’s Theory of Everything – The Movie

    The startling claim is made by a pair of American cosmologists investigating the consequences for the cosmos of quantum theory, the most successful theory we have. Over the past few years, cosmologists have taken this powerful theory of what happens at the level of subatomic particles and tried to extend it to understand the universe, since it began in the subatomic realm during the Big Bang.

    Technology and Iphones

    November 25, 2007

    I got this from the one, and only Mister Christer. He got it from a pilot Friend. What a hoot! Enjoy!

    I got this from a Friend of mine who is a Helicopter
    Pilot for Airlife of Denver, I am not sure where he
    got it but it is pretty damn funny.

    Subject: I-Phone weatherman

    Oh joy! I can’t wait for the next ground delay or long
    taxi due to weather somewhere to get a smart ass with
    a freakin I-phone shoving it in my face saying “It’s
    NOT raining there… SEE !” Too late…already
    happened to me. We push back, get advised of a ground
    stop in MEM due to storms in the area. Go to the
    penalty box and wait. My Captain does the lecture over
    the PA… not one minute later, we get dinged from the
    F/A “Some guy with an IPhone says the weather is good,
    and wants to know what the real reason is for the
    delay. Is something wrong with the plane?”

    I want to tell this clown what he can do with his
    IdiotPhone – but the Captain does it even better. He
    gets on the PA and makes the following announcement :

    “If the passenger with the IPhone would be kind enough
    to use it to check the weather at our alternate,
    calculate our fuel burn due to being rerouted around
    the storms, call the dispatcher to arrange our
    release, and then make a phone call to the nearest Air
    Traffic Control center to arrange our timely departure
    amongst the other aircraft carrying passengers with
    IPhones, then we will be more than happy to depart.
    Please ring your call button to advise the Flight
    Attendant and your fellow passengers when you deem it
    ready and responsible for this multi-million dollar
    aircraft and its 84 passengers to safely leave.”

    Needless to say, the pax was pretty embarrassed. The
    F/A later told us the rest of the plane was outright
    laughing at this dude. What a clown

    Ahh, the Weather…

    November 18, 2007

    This particular bit of humor is dedicated to my good friend Neil Stalking Bear. He is a real Native American, and really can appreciate a good joke! 🙂

    Circular reasoning———-just as in the corporate world. ROA

    It was already late fall and the Indians on a remote reservation in
    South Dakota asked their new chief if the coming winter was going to
    be cold or mild. Since he was a chief in a modern society he had never
    been taught the old secrets. When he looked at the sky he couldn’t
    tell what the winter was going to be like.

    Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, he told his tribe that the
    winter was indeed going to be cold and that the members of the village
    should collect firewood to be prepared.

    But, being a practical leader, after several days he got an idea. He
    went to the phone booth, called the National Weather Service and
    asked, “Is the coming winter going to be cold?”

    “It looks like this winter is going to be quite cold,” the
    meteorologist at the weather service responded.

    So the chief went back to his people and told them to collect even
    more firewood in order to be prepared.

    A week later he called the National Weather Service again. “Does it
    still look like it is going to be a very cold winter?”

    “Yes,” the man at National Weather Service again replied, “it’s going
    to be a very cold winter.”

    The chief again went back to his people and ordered them to collect
    every scrap of firewood they could find.

    Two weeks later the chief called the National Weather Service again.
    “Are you absolutely sure that the winter is going to be very cold?”
    “Absolutely,” the man replied. “It’s looking more and more like it is
    going to be one of the coldest winters we’ve ever seen.”

    “How can you be so sure?” the chief asked.
    The weatherman replied, “The Indians are collecting firewood like crazy.”

    Retirement in Alaska

    October 21, 2007

    Retirement in Alaska

    Tom had been in the liquor business for 25 years.

    Finally sick of the stress he quits his job and buys 50 acres of land in Alaska as far from humanity as possible.

    He sees the postman once a week and gets groceries once a month. Otherwise it’s total peace and quiet.

    After six months or so of almost total isolation, someone knocks on his door.

    He opens it and a huge, bearded man is standing there.

    ”Name’s Lars, your neighbor from forty miles up the road. Having a Christmas party Friday night. Thought you might like to come. About 5:00.”

    Great”, says Tom, “After six months out here I’m ready to meet some local folks. Thank you.”

    As Lars is leaving, he stops. “Gotta warn you, be some drinkin’.”

    Not a problem,” says Tom, “After 25 years in the business, I can drink with the best of ’em.”

    Again, the big man starts to leave and stops. “More ‘n’ likely gonna be some fightin’ too.”

    Well, I get along with people, I’ll be all right. I’ll be there. Thanks again.”

    “More’n likely be some wild sex, too”, Lars says.

    Now that’s really not a problem,” says Tom, warming to the idea, “I’ve been all alone for six months! I’ll definitely be there. By the way, what should I wear?”

    Lars replies, “Don’t much matter. Just gonna be the two of us.”

    More from the blond bombshell!

    October 15, 2007

    “On illegal immigration, [Mike] Huckabee makes George Bush sound like Tom Tancredo. He has compared illegal aliens to slaves brought here in chains from Africa, saying, ‘I think frankly the Lord is giving us a second chance to do better than we did before.’ Toward that end, when an Arkansas legislator introduced a bill that would prevent illegal aliens from voting and receiving state benefits, Huckabee denounced the bill, saying it would rile up ‘those who are racist and bigots.’ He also made the insane point that companies like Toyota would not invest in Arkansas if the state didn’t allow non-citizens to vote because it would ‘send the message that, essentially, ‘If you don’t look like us, talk like us and speak like us, we don’t want you.’ Like all the (other) Democratic candidates for president, he supports a federal law to ban smoking—unless you’re an illegal alien smoking at a Toyota plant. (I just realized why Mike Huckabee can’t run for president as a Democrat—they’ve already got Mike Gravel.) Huckabee also joined with impeached president Bill Clinton in a campaign against childhood obesity. What, O.J. wasn’t available?”—Ann Coulter

    I just love her perspective on some issues! 🙂

    The End of Blonde Jokes, and more…

    October 15, 2007

    A young ventriloquist is touring the clubs and one night he’s doing a show in a small town in Texas. With his
    dummy on his knee, he starts going through his usual dumb blonde jokes.

    Suddenly, a blonde woman in the 4th row stands on her chair and starts shouting: ‘I’ve heard enough of your
    stupid blonde jokes. What makes you think you can stereotype women that way? What does the color of a person’s
    hair have to do with her worth as a human being?

    Its guys like you who keep women like me from being respected at work and in the community, and from reaching
    our full potential as a person. Because you and your kind continue to perpetuate discrimination against not only
    blondes, but women in general…and all in the name of humor!

    The embarrassed ventriloquist begins to apologize, and the blonde yells, ‘You stay out of this, mister! I’m
    talking to that little ‘creep’ on your knee’.

    Why men don’t write advice columns. Now we know.

    Dear Walter:

    I hope you can help me here. The other day I set off for work leaving my
    husband in the house watching the TV as usual. I hadn’t gone more than a
    few hundred yards down the road when my engine conked out and the car
    shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband’s help.

    When I got home I couldn’t believe my eyes. He was parading in front of
    the wardrobe mirror dressed in my underwear and high-heel shoes, and he
    was wearing my make up.

    I am 32, my husband is 34 and we have been married for twelve years.
    When I confronted him, he tried to make out that he had dressed in my lingerie
    because he couldn’t find his own underwear. But when I asked him about
    the make up, he broke down and admitted that he’d been wearing my
    clothes for six months. I told him to stop or I would leave him.

    He was let go from his job six months ago and he says he has been
    feeling increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but
    ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant.
    I don’t feel I can get through to him anymore. Can you please help?

    Sincerely,
    Mrs. Norma Melia

    Dear Norma:

    A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a
    variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no
    debris in the fuel line. If it is clear, check the jubilee clips holding
    the vacuum pipes onto the inlet manifold. If none of these approaches
    solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty,
    causing low delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber. I hope
    this helps.

    Walter

    Is it better to be a jock or a nerd?

    Michael Jordan, having ‘retired’ with $40 million in endorsements, makes $178,100 a day, working or not.
    If he sleeps 7 hours a night, he makes $52,000 every night while visions of sugarplums dance in his head.
    If he goes to see a movie, it’ll cost him $7.00, but he’ll make $18,550 while he’s there.
    If he decides to have a 5-minute egg, he’ll make $618 while boiling it.
    He makes $7,415/hour more than minimum wage.
    If he wanted to save up for a new Acura NSX ($90,000) it would take him a whole 12 hours.
    If someone were to hand him his salary and endorsement money, they would have to do it at the rate of $2.00 every
    second.
    He’ll probably pay around $200 for a nice round of golf, but will be reimbursed $33,390 for that round.
    He’ll make a bout $19.60 while watching the 100-meter dash in the Olympics, and about $15,600 during the race.
    This year, he’ll make more than twice as much as all past presidents for all of their terms combined.
    Amazing isn’t it?
    However… Read this next bit !!!
    If Jordan saves 100% of his income for the next 500 years, he’ll still have less than Bill Gates has at this very
    moment.
    Game over.
    Nerd wins.

    Catholic Golf

    A Catholic priest and a nun were taking a rare afternoon off and enjoying a round of golf. The priest stepped up
    to the first tee and took a mighty swing. He missed the ball entirely and said “Shit, I missed.”

    The good Sister told him to watch his language.

    On his next swing, he missed again. “Shit, I missed.”

    “Father, I’ m not going to play with you if you keep swearing,” The nun said tartly.

    The priest promised to do better and the round continued. On The 4th tee, he misses again. The usual comment
    followed.

    Sister is really mad now and says, “Father John, God is going to
    strike you dead if you keep swearing like that.”

    On the next tee, Father John swings and misses again. “Shit, I missed.”

    A terrible rumble is heard and a gigantic bolt of lightning comes out of the sky and strikes Sister Marie dead in
    her tracks.

    And from the sky comes a booming voice …….

    “Shit, I missed.”

    Fridays Funny …

    October 12, 2007

    Friday’s Funny

    Two women are in Heaven and they are talking…

    1st woman: Hi! My name is Susie.

    2nd woman: Hi! I’m Cindi. How did you die?

    1st woman: I Froze to Death.

    2nd woman: How Horrible!

    1st woman: It wasn’t so bad. After I quit shaking from the cold, I began to get warm & sleepy, and finally died a peaceful death. What about you?

    2nd woman: I died of a massive heart attack. I suspected that my husband was cheating, so I came home early to catch him in the act. But instead, I found him all by himself in the den watching TV.

    1st woman: So, what happened?

    2nd woman: I was so sure there was another woman there somewhere that I started running all over the house looking for her. I ran up into the attic and searched, and down into the basement. Then I went through every closet and checked under all the beds. I kept this up until I had looked everywhere, and finally I became so exhausted that I just keeled over with a heart attack and died.

    1st woman: Too bad you didn’t look in the freezer… We’d both still be alive.
