Not So Dumb

A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his customer, "This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you."

The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks, "Which do you want, son"? The boy takes the quarters and leaves.

"What did I tell you"? said the barber. "That kid never learns!"

Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store.

"Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill"?

The boy licked his cone and replied, "Because the day I take the dollar, the game's over."

>> For all of you who frequent restaurants and understand the need for the
>> service to be faster,
>> this short story is a timeless lesson on how consultants can make a
>> difference to an organization.
>> Last week, we took some friends out to a new restaurant and noticed that
>> the waiter who took our order carried a spoon in his shirt pocket.
>> It seemed a little strange. When another waiter brought our water and
>> utensils I noticed he also had a spoon in his shirt pocket. Then I looked
>> around and saw that all the staff had spoons in their pockets. When the
>> waiter came back to serve our soup I asked, "Why the spoon?"
>>
>> "Well, he explained, "the restaurant's owners hired Andersen Consulting
>> to
>> revamp all our processes. After several months of analysis, they
>> concluded
>> that the spoon was the most frequently dropped utensil. It represents a
>> drop
>> frequency of approximately 3 spoons per table per hour. If our personnel
>> are better prepared, we can reduce the number of trips back to the
>> kitchen and
>> save 15 man-hours per shift."
>> As luck would have it, I dropped my spoon and he was able to replace it
>> with his spare. "I'll get another spoon next time I go to the kitchen,
>> instead
>> of making an extra trip to get it right now."
>>
>> I was impressed. I also noticed that there was a string hanging out of
>> the
>> waiter's fly. Looking around, I noticed that all the waiters had the same
>> string hanging from their flies. So before he walked off, I asked
>> the waiter "Excuse me, but can you tell me why you have that string right
>> there?"
>>
>> "Oh, certainly!" Then he lowered his voice. "Not everyone is so
>> observant.
>> That consulting firm I mentioned also found out that we can save time in
>> the
>> restroom. By tying this string to the tip of you know what, we can pull
>> it
>> out without touching it and eliminate the need to wash our hands,
>> shortening the time spent in the restroom by 76.39 percent.
>> I asked "After you get it out, how do you put it back?"
>>
>> "Well," he whispered, "I don't know about the others, but I use the
>> spoon."

>>
>> When the Newfie reaches the tree, he goes around it in a circle  while

A husband in his back yard is trying to fly a kite. He throws the kite up in the air, the wind catches it for a few seconds, then it comes crashing back down to earth. He tries this a few more times with no success.

All the while, his wife is watching from the kitchen window, muttering to herself how men need to be told how to do everything.

She opens the window and yells to her husband, "You need a piece of tail."

The man turns with a confused look on his face and says, "Make up your mind. Last night, you told me to go fly a kite."

This thread was an awesome idea....LMAO!!!!

"There's one in every crowd, for crying out loud,
why was it always turning out be me"

microsoft tale

In 2050 A.D. Bill Gates dies in a car accident. He finds himself in the Purgatory waiting room, when God enters...

"Well, Bill," says God, "I'm confused. I'm not sure whether to send you to Heaven or Hell: you helped society enormously by putting a computer in almost every home in the world, and yet you've also created some of the most unearthly frustrations known to mankind. I'm going to do something I've never done before: I'm going to let you choose where you want to go."

Bill replies, "Well, thanks, God. What's the difference between the two?"

God says, "I'm willing to let you visit both places briefly to help you make your decision."

"Okay, where should I go first?" asks Bill.

God says, "That's up to you."

Bill says, "OK, let's try Hell first."

So Bill goes to Hell. It's a beautiful, clean, sandy beach with clear waters. There are thousands of beautiful women running around, playing in the water, laughing and frolicking about. The sun is shining, the temperature is just right. The whole thing looks perfect, and Bill is very pleased.

"This is great!" he tells God, "If this is Hell, I REALLY want to see Heaven!"

"Fine," says God, and off they go.

Heaven is a high place in the clouds, with angels drifting about playing harps and singing. It very nice but not as enticing as Hell. Bill thinks for a moment and announces his decision.

"Hmm, I think I prefer Hell." he tells God.

"Fine," says God, "As you desire."

So Bill Gates is taken to Hell.

Two weeks later, God decides to check up on Bill to see how he's doing in Hell. When God arrives in Hell, he finds Bill shackled to a wall, screaming amongst the hot flames in a dark cave. He's being burned and tortured by demons.

"How's everything going, Bill?" God asks.

Bill replies, his voice full of anguish and disappointment, "This is awful, it's not what I expected at all, I can't believe it. What happened to that other place with the beaches and the beautiful women playing in the water?"

God smiles and says, "That was the screen saver."

OMG! Jenn! I did one of those I laughed, I cried, I laughed again thingys that happen to me once in a while!!! That last one sent me right over the edge! I am suffering from withdrawl in the worst ways today! It just seemed like Blue Rodeo weekend was almost here and now...........sad, very sad. So thanks for the laugh!
