3 men in Saudi

An American, a Dutchman and a Frenchman are in Saudi Arabia, sharing a smuggled crate of booze.

Then Saudi police rush in and arrest them.

The mere possession of alcohol is a severe offense in Saudi Arabia.

For the terrible crime of actually being caught consuming the booze, they are all sentenced to death!

However, after many months and with the help of very good lawyers, they are able to successfully appeal their sentences down to life imprisonment.

By a stroke of luck, it was a Saudi national holiday the day their trial finished.

The extremely benevolent Sheikh decided they could be released after receiving just 20 lashes each with a whip.

As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheikh announced: “It’s my first wife’s birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one wish before your whipping.”

The Dutchman was first in line, he thought for a while and then said: “Please tie a pillow to my back.”

This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went through. When the punishment was done he had to be carried away bleeding and crying with pain.

The Frenchman was next up. After watching the Dutchman in horror he said smugly: “Please fix two pillows to my back.”

But even two pillows could only take 15 lashes before the whip went through again and the Frenchman was soon led away whimpering loudly.

The American was the last one up, but before he could say anything, the Sheikh turned to him and said: “You are from a most beautiful part of the world and your culture is one of the finest in the world. For this, you may have two wishes!”

“Thank you, your Most Royal and Merciful highness,” the American replied. “In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not 20, but 100 lashes.”

“Not only are you an honorable, handsome and powerful man, you are also very brave.” The Sheikh said with an admiring look on his face.

“If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish, what is it to be?” the Sheikh asked.

The American replied: “Tie the Frenchman to my back.”

Algunos de los mejores (o

Algunos de los mejores (o peores) momentos de la vida son:

Enamorarse… y descubrir que el implicado(a) es homosexual.

Re�rse hasta que te duela la panza… y que se te salga una ruidosa flatulencia en medio de todos tus amigos.

Encontrar miles de correos electr�nicos cuando vuelves de las vacaciones… pero todos son cadenas aburridas y bobas (como �sta) o publicidad o peor a�n, virus del Sircam.

Manejar por alg�n lugar lindo… y chocar por andar baboseando.

Escuchar tu canci�n favorita en la radio… porque tu CD player se descompuso.

Acostarte en tu cama y escuchar como llueve afuera… para despu�s sentir las goteras del techo.

Salir de la ducha y encontrar que la toalla est� calientita… pero porque tu perro se durmi� sobre ella.

Aprobar tu �ltimo examen… pero teni�ndole que dar un buen billete al maestro.

Recibir una llamada de alguien que hace mucho no ves… para pedirte dinero prestado.

Una buena conversaci�n… con un agente del tr�nsito que te agarr� en la movida.

Re�rse de uno mismo… cuando te miras al espejo.

Escuchar accidentalmente que alguien dice que est�s guapo(a)… pero quien lo dice es tu mam�.

Escuchar la canci�n que te hacer recordar a ‘esa’ persona especial… cuando te acaba de cortar.

Ser parte de un equipo… de asalta microbuses.

El primer beso en los labios… a alguien de tu mismo sexo.

Hacer nuevos amigos… pero entre los amigos de lo ajeno.

Sentir cosquillitas en la panza cada vez que ves a ‘esa’ persona… cuando otro(a) se la est� agasajando sabroso.

Ver felices a las personas que quieres… pero felices porque te vas a mudar a Siberia.

Volver a ver a un viejo amigo y sentir que las cosas no cambiaron… porque los dos siguen igual de pobres.

Mirar un atardecer… s�, el atardecer de tu existencia.

Tener a una pareja que te diga que te quiere… que te quiere mandar al diablo.

Re�rse sin motivos… a causa de la esquizofrenia que te est� dando.

Este correo-e es para comprobar qu� tan supersticioso eres. Si se lo reenv�as a m�s de veinte personas en menos de cinco minutos, te garantizamos que te sacar�s la loter�a (�aunque no hayas comprado ning�n boleto!). Si no lo haces, alguno de tus hijos se volver� gay. El origen de este correo-e est� en indochina, en el siglo XVII y da suerte a quien lo obedece y hace desgraciado a quien lo borra (que no te enga�en, en Indochina ya tienen correo electr�nico desde ese entonces). �En serio, es infalible, le pas� a mi compadre que se encontr� un billete de loter�a en el piso… y era el premio gordo!

The donkey that missed a sense of humor

A Contest is held for making a donkey laugh.

One man goes at it, nothing comes out, the donkey just stares at him.

Another man goes in, same effect.

After hundreds of people failing, one man goes in and the donkey is on the floor laughing his ass off.

“How do you do it?” the crowd asks?
“its a secret answered the man”

Another day theres a similar contest but this time to make a donkey cry.

After everybody failed on succeeding again, the same man went in and in minutes the donkey is crying, “how did you do it?” impatiently asks the crowd.

“well”, says the man “the first time i told the donkey that my balls were bigger than his, he laughed…the second time i prooved it!”

Building the Ark

And the Lord spoke to Noah and said: “In six months I’m going to make it rain until the whole earth is covered with water and all the evil people are destroyed. But I want to save a few good people, and two of every kind ofliving thing on the planet. I am ordering you to build Me an Ark.”

And in a flash of lightning he delivered the specifications for an Ark. “OK,” said Noah, trembling in fear and fumbling with the blueprints. “Six months, and it starts to rain,” thundered the Lord. “You’d better have my Ark completed, or learn how to swim for a very long time.” And six months passed. The skies began to cloud up and rain began to fall.

The Lord saw that Noah was sitting in his front yard, weeping. And there was no Ark. “Noah,” shouted the Lord, “where is my Ark?” A lightning bolt crashed into the ground next to Noah.

“Lord, please forgive me!” begged Noah. “I did my best. But there were big problems. First I had to get a building permit for the Ark construction project, and your plans didn’t meet code. So I had to hire an engineer to redraw the plans. Then I got into a big fight over whether or not the Ark needed a fire sprinkler system. My neighbors objected, claiming I was violating zoning by building the Ark in my front yard, so I had to get a variance from the city planning commission.

Then I had a big problem getting enough wood for the Ark because there was a ban on cutting trees to save the Spotted Owl. I had to convince U.S. Fish and Wildlife that I needed the wood to save the owls. But they wouldn’t let me catch any owls. So no owls.

Then the carpenters formed a union and went out on strike. I had to negotiate a settlement with the National Labor Relations Board before anyone would pick up a saw or a hammer. Now we have 16 carpenters going on the boat, and still no owls.

Then I started gathering up animals, and got sued by an animal rights group. They objected to me taking only two of each kind. Just when I got the suit dismissed, EPA notified me that I couldn’t complete the Ark without filing an environmental impact statement on your proposed flood. They didn’t take kindly to the idea that they had no jurisdiction over the conduct of a Supreme Being.

Then the Army Corps of Engineers wanted a map of the Proposed new flood plain. I sent them a globe.

Right now I’m still trying to resolve a complaint from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission over how many Croatians I’m supposed to hire, the IRS has seized all my assets claiming I’m trying to avoid paying taxes by leaving the country, and I just got a notice from the state about owing some kind of use tax. I really don’t think I can finish your Ark for at least another five years,” Noah wailed.

The sky began to clear. The sun began to shine. A rainbow arched across the sky. Noah looked up and smiled. “You mean you’re not going to destroy the earth?” Noah asked, hopefully.

“No,” said the Lord sadly, “Government already has.”

Va un tipo vendiendo tamales

Va un tipo vendiendo tamales por la calle:

“�Tamales de pollo, carne y elote!”

En eso, una se�ora a la que le hab�an amputado una pierna lo escucha y sale corriendo a alcanzarlo:

“Se�or, se�or, esp�rese”.

El tamalero se detiene y le pregunta:

“�De qu� le doy?”

“�De qu� tiene?”

“De pollo, de elote y de carne, usted escoja”.

“�Pues yo soy coja, pero usted es un hijo de la chingada!”

MURPHY’S LAWS ON WORK

A pat on the back is only a few centimeters from a kick in the pants.

Don’t be irreplaceable, if you can’t be replaced, you can’t be promoted.

The more crap you put up with, the more crap you are going to get.

You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a clipboard.

Eat one live toad the first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen
to you the rest of the day.

Never ask two questions in a business letter. The reply will discuss the one
you are least interested in, and say nothing about the other.

When the bosses talk about improving productivity, they are never talking
about themselves.

If at first you don’t succeed, try again. Then quit. No use being a damn fool
about it.

There will always be beer cans rolling on the floor of your car when the boss
asks for a ride home from the office.

Mother said there would be days like this, but she never said there would be
so many.

Keep your boss’s boss off your boss’s back. This is what I’m doing wrong.

Everything can be filed under “miscellaneous.”

Never delay the ending of a meeting or the beginning of a cocktail hour.

To err is human, to forgive is not company policy.

Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn’t the work he is supposed to
be doing.

Important letters that contain no errors will develop errors in the mail.

The last person that quit or was fired will be the one held responsible for
everything that goes wrong – until the next person quits or is fired.

There is never enough time to do it right the first time, but there is always
enough time to do it over.

The more pretentious a corporate name, the smaller the organization. (For
instance, The Murphy Center for Codification of Human and Organizational Law,
contrasted to IBM, GM, AT&T …).

If you are good, you will be assigned all the work. If you are really good,
you will get out of it.

You are always doing something marginal when the boss drops by your desk.

People are always available for work in the past tense.

If it wasn’t for the last minute, nothing would get done.

At work, the authority of a person is inversely proportional to the number of
pens that person is carrying.

When you don’t know what to do, walk fast and look worried.

You will always get the greatest recognition for the job you least like.

No one gets sick on Wednesdays.

When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by
reducing it to the question, “How would the Lone Ranger handle this?”

The longer the title, the less important the job.

Machines that have broken down will work perfectly when the repairman arrives.

An “acceptable” level of employment means that the government economist to
whom it is acceptable still has a job.

Once a job is fouled up, anything done to improve it makes it worse.

All vacations and holidays create problems, except for one’s own.

Success is just a matter of luck, just ask any failure.

Estaban dos gallinas en un

Estaban dos gallinas en un gallinero muy aburridas, pues no hab�a que hacer, entonces una le dice a la otra:

“Oye manis, qu� te parece si jugamos haber quien pone el huevo mas grande.”

Contesta la otra: “Claro comadre, �por qu� no?”

Y empiezan las dos a hacer ganas y fuerzas. Jum,jum, comienzan a pujar. Despues de 2 horas, dice una:

“Ya casi, ya casi sale, jum, sali�.”

Era un huevo del doble de tama�o que uno normal.

“A ver, g�name.”

Y sigue la otra pujando. Despu�s de dos horas:

“Jum, jum, lo logr�… sali�.”

El huevo era enorme, m�s grande que uno de avestruz. Ella contenta le dice a su amiga:

“Ya viste comadre, �c�mo te quedo el ojo?”

Y contesta la otra:

“Y a ti �c�mo te quedo el culo?”
