The Walk of Life

Once in awhile, you come across some really cute shots that put a smile on your face. Yesterday received just 3 cute shots from my son and would like to share them with you to lighten your day!

As the saying goes, "A Picture Paints A Thousand Words" and I guess these 3 shots fit the bill! Enjoy and have a Great Valentine and week-end!

I came across this embarrassingly funny anecdote which I think can really happen to anyone! Imagine you were at a Public Restroom reliving yourself and then suddenly the guy in the next cubicle started something like this:-

"Hi, how are you?"

You're not the type to start a conversation in the men's restrooms at a rest stop but, you don't know what got into you, so you answered, somewhat embarrassingly: "Doing Just Fine!"

And the other guy says: "So what are you up too?"

What kind of question is that? At that point, You're thinking this is too bizarre so you say: "Uhhh I'm like you, just traveling east!"

At this point you are just trying to get out as fast as you can when you hear another question.

Can I come over to your place after while?

Ok, this question is just wacky but you figured you could just be polite and end the conversation.

So you tell him, "Well, I have company over so today is a bad day for me!"

Then you hear the guy say nervously...

"LISTEN!!! I'll have to call you back, there's an idiot in the other stall who keeps answering all my questions, bye!"

Ah! Yes! Baked Beans, one of my favourite breakfast Menu! Not sure how true it is about the effects of taking Baked Beans. In regards to this here is a really hilarious story about Baked Beans!

One day I met a sweet gentleman and fell in love. When it became apparent that we would marry, I made the supreme sacrifice and gave up beans.

Some months later, on my birthday, my car broke down on the way home from work. Since I lived in the countryside I called my husband and told him that I would be late because I had to walk home. On my way, I passed by a small diner and the odor of baked beans was more than I could stand.

With miles to walk, I figured that I would walk off any ill effects by the time I reached home, so I stopped at the diner and before I knew it, I had consumed three large orders of baked beans. All the way home, I made sure that I released all the gas.

Upon my arrival, my husband seemed excited to see! me and exclaimed delightedly: 'Darling I have a surprise for dinner tonight.' He then blindfolded me and led me to my chair at the dinner table.

I took a seat and just as he was about to remove my blindfold, the telephone rang. He made me promise not to touch the blindfold until he returned and went to answer the call.

The baked beans I had consumed were still affecting me and the pressure was becoming most unbearable, so while my husband was out of the room I seized the opportunity, shifted my weight to one leg and let one go. It was not only loud, but it smelled like a fertilizer truck running over a skunk in front of a pulpwood mill.

I took my napkin from my lap and fanned the air around me vigorously. Then, shifting to the other cheek, I ripped off three more. The stink was worse than cooked cabbage. Keeping my ears carefully tuned to the conversation in the other room, I went on like this for another few minutes.

The pleasure was indescribable. When eventually the telephone farewells signaled the end of my freedom, I quickly fanned the air a few more times with my napkin, placed it on my lap and folded my hands back on it feeling very relieved and pleased with myself.

My face must have been the picture of innocence when my husband returned, apologizing for taking so long. He asked me if I had peeked through the blindfold, and I assured him I had not. At this point, he removed the blindfold, and twelve dinner guests seated around the table chorused: 'Happy Birthday!'

I fainted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Copywriting is a much sought after topic on the Web. Every internet marketer will invariably have to learn something about this topic. To me copying Ancient Texts or Manuscripts requires even more attention for a missing 'letter' or 'word' can mean a totally different thing and cause years of hardships! :)

To illustrate the point I'll share an interesting story and also my way of apology for Missing in Action for a week! :)

A young monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to helping the other monks in copying the old canons and laws of the church by hand.

He notices, however, that all of the monks are copying from copies, not from the original manuscript. So, the new monk goes to the head abbot to question this, pointing out that if someone made even a small error in the first copy, it would never be picked up! In fact, that error would be continued in all of the subsequent copies.

The head monk, says, "We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son."

He goes down into the dark caves underneath the monastery where the original manuscripts are held as archives in a locked vault that hasn't been opened for hundreds of years. Hours go by and nobody sees the old abbot.

So, the young monk gets worried and goes down to look for him. He sees him banging his head against the wall and wailing,

"We missed the " R" ! , we missed the " R" !"

His forehead is all bloody and bruised and he is crying uncontrollably. The young monk asks the old abbot, "What's wrong, father?"

With A choking voice, the old abbot replies, "The word was...

"CELEB RATE !!"

With the recent financial meltdown in the US and Europe, the Asian countries are in jitters too! Our local Stock Market dropped to below 900 points! One day up and the next day down! following local bourses as the experts said.

Well, I discovered a bit of information which I guess will help to explain things a bit on how the Stock Market Works and hope that with understanding comes calm and peace of mind! Here is how what I discovered:-

It was autumn, and the Red Indians on the remote reservation asked their New Chief if the winter was going to be cold or mild. Since he was a Red Indian chief in a modern society, he couldn't tell what the weather was going to be.

Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, he replied to his Tribe that the winter was indeed going to be cold and that the members of the village should collect wood to be prepared. But also 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 indeed," the meteorologist at the weather service responded. So the Chief went back to his people and told them to collect even more Wood.

A week later, he called the National Weather Service again. "Is it Going to be a very cold winter?" "Yes," the man at National Weather Service again replied, "It's definitely going to be a very cold winter."

The Chief again went back to his people and ordered them to collect every scrap of wood they could find. Two weeks later, he 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 going to be one of the coldest winters ever. " "How can you be so sure?" the Chief asked.The weatherman replied, "The Red Indians are collecting wood like Crazy.."

This is how the stock market works!!!
