A Modern Day Mark Twain

There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed a desire to become a “great” writer. When asked to define “great” he said “I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, wail, howl in pain, desperation, and anger!” He now works for Microsoft writing error messages. .”

Male Or Female

You might not have known this, but a lot of non-living objects are actually either male or female. Here are some examples:

FREEZER BAGS: They are male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.

PHOTOCOPIERS: These are female, because once turned off; it takes a while to warm them up again. They are an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can also wreak havoc if you push the wrong buttons.

TIRES: Tires are male, because they go bald easily and are often over inflated.

HOT AIR BALLOONS: Also a male object, because to get them to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under their butt.

SPONGES: These are female, because they are soft, squeezable and retain water.

WEB PAGES: Female, because they’re constantly being looked at and frequently getting hit on.

TRAINS: Definitely male, because they always use the same old lines for picking up people.

EGG TIMERS: Egg timers are female because, over time, all the weight shifts to the bottom.

HAMMERS: Male, because in the last 5000 years, they’ve hardly changed at all, and are occasionally handy to have around.

THE REMOTE CONTROL: Female. Ha! You probably thought it would be male, but consider this: It easily gives a man pleasure, he’d be lost without it, and while he doesn’t always know which buttons to push, he just keeps trying.

Morals To Live By

One day Adam’s teacher told the class that everyone must find out a moral for the next day’s class. One boy came in and said, “Don’t count your chickens before they hatch.” The second boy said, “Don’t judge a book by it’s cover.” Then Adam came in with a broken jaw and black eyes and said, “I asked my Uncle Johnny for a moral and he told me to shut up. I told him he had to help me because it was homework.” The teacher said, “What is the moral, Johnny?” “DON”T MESS WITH UNCLE JOHNNY WHEN HE’S DRINKING!!!”

Nepotism, It’s Better Then Working For The Government

My daughter Marina worked in my law office while she attended graduate school. One morning a call came in for her. I said she wasn’t in yet and offered to take a message. The caller said she’d phone back later. At 11:00 a.m., the caller tried again, and I reported that Marina had gone to lunch. The last call came at 3:30 p.m. “I’m sorry,” I said, “she’s left for the day. May I take a message?” “Yes,” the caller replied. “How can I get a job with you?”

Top Ten Unproven Ways, During a Lunch Break, to Reduce Workplace Stress

No. 10:
Get together with colleagues at the company parking lot and draw pastel chalk outlines of unhelpful supervisors and co-workers on the pavement.

No. 9:
Get a real change of scenery and move to another state. From Charleston SC, it is possible during the course of a lunch hour, if you manage your time properly, to emigrate to either Ohio or Kentucky.

No. 8:
Organize an office percussion band. With a little imagination, workstations can be converted into drum kits, using trash cans, yardsticks and computer consoles.

No. 7:
Organize an office Power ball run. Sure, the odds for winning are about as good as your company’s stockholders deciding to restore your Christmas bonus. But daydreaming about what you would do with a winning ticket provides stress-relieving escape time.

No. 6:
Practice deep sleeping. Keep a rolled sleeping bag handy so that you can crawl under your workstation for an hour’s worth of siesta time.

No. 5:
Take secondhand smoke breaks. Why limit your “down time” to a single lunch hour when many of your colleagues take double and triple that amount of off-duty time to puff their cigarettes in doorways and loading docks? Latch on to a nicotine-addicted co-worker and match him or her break-for-break as you catch up on gossip and company politics.

No. 4:
Have a good chat with a radio talk-show host. Vent about how whatever group he supports is tearing this country down, then hang up on him before he has a chance to respond.

No. 3:
Organize Australian rules full-contact swivel chair races down the hallway.

No. 2:
Have a cup of St. John’s Wart tea. This herbal version of Prozac, endorsed by Larry King, may not take you to nirvana, but it could help you make it over the midweek hump.

No. 1:
Update your resume on your computer and hunt for less stressful jobs on the Internet. From a distance, you’ll look busy to supervisors.

Don’t You Love It When Kids Are Honest?

Finding one of her students making faces at others on the playground, Ms. Smith stopped to gently reprove the child. Smiling sweetly, the Sunday School teacher said, ‘Bobby, when I was a child, I was told that if I made ugly faces, it would freeze and I would stay like that.’ Bobby looked up and replied, ‘Well, Ms. Smith, you can’t say you weren’t warned.’

Social Tips For Rednecks

1. Always identify people in your yard before shooting at them.
2. It’s considered tacky to take a cooler to church.
3. If you have to vacuum the bed, it’s time to change the sheets.
4. Even if your certain that you’re included in the will, it’s rude to drive a U-Haul to the funeral.

Entertaining In Your Home…
1. A centerpiece for the table should never be anything prepared by a taxidermist.
2. Do not allow the dog to eat at the table, no matter how good his manners are.

Personal Hygiene…
1. While ears need to be cleaned regularly, this job should be done in private using one’s own truck keys.
2. Even if you live alone, deodorant is not a waste of money.

Theater Etiquette…
1. Crying babies should be taken to the lobby and picked up immediately after the movie has ended.
2. Refrain from talking to the characters on the screen. Tests have proven that they can’t hear you.

Weddings…
1. Livestock, usually, is a poor choice for a wedding gift.
2. For the groom, at least rent a tux. A leisure suit with a cumberbund and a clean bowling shirt can create a tacky appearance.

Driving Etiquette…
1. Dim your lights for approaching vehicles, even if the gun is loaded and the deer is in sight.
2. When approaching a four way stop, the vehicle with the largest tires does not always have the right of way.
3. Never tow another car using panty hose and duct tape.
4. Do not lay rubber while traveling in a funeral procession.

Dating (outside the family)…
1. Offer to bait your date’s hook, especially on the first date.
2. Establish with her parents what time she is expected back. Some will say 10:00 P.M. Others might say “Monday.” If the latter is the answer, it is the man’s responsibility to get her to school on time.
