Smart ones.............


One Night 4 college students were playing till late night and could not study for the test which was scheduled for the next day. In the morning they thought of a plan. They made themselves look as dirty with grease and dirt. They then went up to the Dean and said that they had gone out to a wedding last night and on their return the tire of their car burst and they had to push the car all the way back and that they were in no condition to appear for the test.
So the Dean said they could have the re-test after 3 days. They thanked him and said they would be ready by that time.
On the third day they appeared before the Dean. The Dean said that as this was a Special Condition Test, all four were required to sit in separate classrooms for the test. They all agreed as they had prepared well in the last 3 days.


The Test consisted of 2 questions with a total of 100 Marks.
Q.1. Your Name.......................... (2 MARKS)
Q.2. which tire burst? (98 MARKS)
a) Front Left
b) Front Right
c) Back Left
d) Back Right.....!!!

Dudes!!! Got to be more careful...........

A Mom comes to visit her son Sukumar for dinner.....who lives with a room
mate, a girl named Sunita. During the course of the meal, his mother
couldn't help but notice how pretty Sukumar's roommate was.
She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and thishad
only made her more curious. Over the course of the evening, while watching
the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Sukumar
and his roommate than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, Sukumar
volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Sunita
and I are just roommates."
About a week later, Sunita came to Sukumar saying, "Ever since your mother
came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver chutney (spices) jar.
You don't suppose she took it, do you?" Sukumar said,"Well, I doubt it, but
I'll email her, just to be sure."
So he sat down and wrote:
Dear Mother,
I'm not saying that you 'did' take the chutney jar from my
house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take the chutney Jar. But the fact
remainsthat it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love
Several days later, Sukumar received an email from his Mother which read
Dear Son,
I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Sunita, and I'm not saying
that you 'do not' sleep with Sunita. But the fact remains that if she was
sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the chutney jar by now under
the pillow...
Love,
Mom.
Lesson of the day: Don't Lie to Your Mother...........especially if she is Indian!

The cause of Severe Recession

once upon a time a man was selling Hotdogs by the roadside. He was illiterate, so he never read newspapers. He was hard of hearing, so he never listened to the radio. His eyes were weak, so he never watched television. But enthusiastically, he sold lots of hotdogs. He was smart enough to offer some attractive schemes to increase his sales. His sales and profit went up. He ordered more a more raw material and buns and use to sale more. He recruited few more supporting staff to serve more customers.
He started offering home deliveries. Eventually he got himself a bigger and better stove. As his business was growing, the son, who had recently graduated from College, joined his father.
Then something strange happened. The son asked, "Dad, aren't you aware of the great recession that is coming our way?" The father replied, "No, but tell me about it." The son said, "The international situation is terrible.
The domestic situation is even worse. We should be prepared for the
coming bad times" The man thought that since his son had been to college, read the papers, listened to the radio and watching TV, he ought to know and his advice should not be taken lightly. So the next day onwards, the father cut down the his raw material order and buns, took down the colorful signboard, removed all the special schemes he was offering to the customers and was no longer as enthusiastic. He reduced his staff strength by giving layoffs.
Very soon, fewer and fewer people bothered to stop at his hotdog stand. And his sales started coming down rapidly, same is the profit. The father said to his son, " Son, you were right. We are in the middle of a recession and crisis. I am glad you warned me ahead of time." ??!!!

Its the same situation which prevails across the globe !!

It exactly explains how top management works......

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost.

She reduced altitude and spotted a man below. She descended a bit more and shouted:

'Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago but I don't know where I am.'

The man below replied, 'You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude.'

'You must be an engineer,' said the balloonist.

'I am', replied the man. 'How did you know?'

'Well, answered the balloonist, 'everything you told me is technically correct, but I've no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I'm still lost.

Frankly, you've not been much help at all. If anything you've delayed my trip even more.'

The man below responded, 'You must be in management.'

'I am,' replied the balloonist, 'but how did you know?'

'Well,' said the man, 'You don't know where you are or where you're going.

You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise which you've no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems.'

Introduction

A new teacher was getting to know the kids by asking them their name and what their father did for a living. The first little girl said: "My name is Mary and my Daddy is a postman." The next child, a little boy said: "I'm Andy and my Dad is a mechanic." And so it went until one little boy said: "My name is Johnny and my father is a striptease artist in a gay club." The teacher gasped and quickly changed the subject. Later, in the school yard, the teacher approached Little Johnny privately and asked if it was really true that his dad danced nude in a gay bar. Little Johnny blushed and said, "No, he's really a Business Development Director at Lehman Brothers, but I'm just too embarrassed to tell anyone."

The only growth that you see later in your career is the rise in your monthly phone bill. 6. You are blinded by her love that you think that she is a blonde. Only later do you come to know that it is because of the mehandhi that she applies to cover her gray hair. 7.

What will Mr. Gate reply for this mail?

Dear Mr Bill Gates,

This letter is from Banta Singh from Punjab. We have bought a computer for our home and we found problems, which I want to bring to your notice. After connecting to internet we planned to open e-mail account and whenever we fill the form in Hotmail in the password column, only ****** appears,but in the rest of the fields whatever we typed appears, but we face this problem only in password field. We checked with hardware vendor Santa Singh and he said that there is no problem in keyboard.Because of this we open the e-mail account with password *****. I request you to check this as we ourselves do not know what the password is.

We are unable to enter anything after we click the shut down button. There is a button 'start' but there is no stop button. We request you to check this. We find there is 'Run' in the menu. One of my friend clicked 'run' has ran up to Amritsar! So, we request you to change that to sit so that we can click that by sitting.

One doubt is that any 're-scooter' available in system? As I find only 're-cycle', but I own a scooter at my home. Also there is 'Find' button but it is not working properly. My wife lost the door key and we tried a lot for tracing the key with this 'Find', but unable to trace. Is it a bug?? And Last not the least there is 'Help' in Main menu its of no use. since it happened a day before yesterday My elder father was suddenly having loose motion so at mid night we tried to find the help ,but we failed. I will be very thankful to you and your team if u fix the matter. looking forward for your reply

Regards

Banta singh
