A Smart Man!

A foursome of senior golfers hit the course with waning enthusiasm for the sport.

“These hills are getting steeper as the years go by,” one complained.

“These fairways seem to be getting longer too,” said one of the others.

“The sand traps seem to be bigger than I remember them too,” said the third senior.

After hearing enough from his Senior buddies, the oldest, and the wisest of the four of them at 87 years old, piped up and said…
“Quit your dang complaining and just be thankful we’re still on the RIGHT SIDE of the grass!”

Con una escasa educaci�n y

Con una escasa educaci�n y sin ning�n entrenamiento, al �nico puesto que Andr�s pudo aspirar fue de operador en la l�nea de producci�n de una nueva f�brica japonesa que se instal� en la regi�n. Meses despu�s de que comenz� a trabajar, la empresa organiz� un concurso entre los obreros y ofreci� un gran premio: un viaje de una semana a Jap�n (con todos los gastos pagados) para conocer al presidente de la compa��a. Andr�s gan� el premio, ya que fue diligente en sus deberes, trabaj� duro, siempre lleg� a tiempo y nunca tom� descanso ni para ir al ba�o.

Que no entendiera una sola palabra en japon�s no fue ning�n impedimento para realizar el viaje, ya que varios de los ejecutivos nipones hablaban espa�ol. Finalmente, nuestro hombre lleg� al aeropuerto de Tokio y a su hotel. Por la tarde, una geisha se present� en el cuarto de Andr�s y �ste supuso que podr�a da�ar las relaciones internacionales si no realizaba algunas ‘relaciones’ con la chica. Esforz�ndose al m�ximo, dedujo que la joven estaba disfrut�ndolo porque comenz� a gritar:

“�Bong Tsai! �Bong Tsai!”

Como la chica se retorc�a y brincaba con gran animaci�n y viveza, supuso que ‘Bong Tsai’ era una exclamaci�n de alegr�a.

As� que continu� realizando su mejor esfuerzo… y ella continu� gritando: “�Bong Tsai”!

Al d�a siguiente, Andr�s fue recogido por el gerente de operaciones americanas para llevarlo a jugar golf con el presidente y el vicepresidente de la compa��a. Como ninguo de los dos hablaba espa�ol, el gerente sirvi� como int�rprete.

El juego procedi� agradablemente hasta el cuarto hoyo. En ese par tres, el presidente peg� un gran tiro, que bot� dos veces, para que finalmente la bola cayera en el recept�culo para un hoyo en uno. El oriental empez� a gritar y gritar con gran entusiasmo. Entonces, Andr�s supuso que deber�a decir algo y record� los alegres gimoteos de la tarde anterior y entonces exclam�:

“�Bong Tsai! �Bong Tsai!”, pensando que era una frase adecuada para la ocasi�n.

Se hizo un pesado silencio en el grupo. Todos miraron fijamente a Andr�s e incr�dulo, el gerente de operaciones americanas le cuestion�:

“�Qu� quiere decir con que es el hoyo equivocado?”

Toasted

A guy lands on a deserted island after a shipwreck. He wakes up surrounded by natives. “I’m toasted.”

A voice booms out of the sky: “You are not wasted yet! Take up thine rock besides you and bash in the head of the one with the red feathers, he is the chief!”

The guy does exactly this. The voice from the skies says:

“Now, you’re toasted…”

Rules For Work

1. Never give me work in the morning. Always wait until 4:00 and then bring
it to me. The challenge of a deadline is refreshing.

2. If it’s really a rush job, run in and interrupt me every 10 minutes to
inquire how it’s going. That helps. Or even better, hover behind me, advising
me at every keystroke.

3. Always leave without telling anyone where you’re going. It gives me a
chance to be creative when someone asks where you are.

4. If my arms are full of papers, boxes, books, or supplies, don’t open the
door for me. I need to learn how to function as a paraplegic and opening doors
with no arms is good training in case I should ever be injured and lose all use
of my limbs.

5. If you give me more than one job to do, don’t tell me which is priority.
I am psychic.

6. Do your best to keep me late. I adore this office and really have nowhere
to go or anything to do. I have no life beyond work.

7. If a job I do pleases you, keep it a secret. If that gets out, it could
mean a promotion.

8. If you don’t like my work, tell everyone. I like my name to be popular in
conversations. I was born to be whipped.

9. If you have special instructions for a job, don’t write them down. In
fact, save them until the job is almost done. No use confusing me with useful
information.

10. Never introduce me to the people you’re with. I have no
right to know anything. In the corporate food chain, I am plankton. When you
refer to them later, my shrewd deductions will identify them.

11. Be nice to me only when the job I’m doing for you could really change
your life and send you straight to managers’ hell.

12. Tell me all your little problems. No one else has any and it’s nice to
know someone is less fortunate. I especially like the story about having to pay
so much taxes on the bonus check you received for being such a good manager.

13. Wait until my yearly review and THEN tell me what my goals SHOULD have
been. Give me a mediocre performance rating with a cost of living increase.
I’m not here for the money anyway.

El presidente de cierto pa�s

El presidente de cierto pa�s africano visit� Rusia, y el presidente, encantando, le mostr� el pa�s y lo trat� con las cortes�as propias para con un jefe de estado. La �ltima noche, antes del regreso a su pa�s, el presidente africano escuch� una propuesta de su hom�logo ruso que lo atemoriz�:

“Mi distinguido presidente, sucede que todos nuestros hu�spedes, despu�s de disfrutar y conocer nuestro pa�s, deben enfrentar su destino jugando a la ruleta rusa; aqu� tienes esta arma, con un solo tiro, la cual tienes que poner en tu sien y ver si tu destino ha terminado”.

Con mucho temor, el africano sigue las instrucciones y sale librado de la ruleta rusa.

Al a�o siguiente, cuando el presidente ruso visita al presidente africano, tambi�n es atendido con muchos honores. Pero en la �ltima noche, el de �frica le dijo que, fiel a sus costumbres, tendr�a que jugar a la ruleta africana.

“�Y c�mo es eso?”, pregunta el ruso con cierto temor.

“Muy sencillo”, responde el africano. “Ah� en cada una de esas chozas se encuentran las cinco mujeres m�s hermosas de �frica, y t� debes elegir una para pasar con ella la noche”.

“�Y luego, qu� debo hacer con ella?”, cuestiona el ruso.

“Nada, solamente dejar que la mujer que escogiste te practique el sexo oral”, explica el presidente africano.

“�Hombre!”, se tranquiliza el ruso, “y yo que pensaba que esta ruleta africana era tan peligrosa como la ruleta rusa”.

“S�, cabr�n, nom�s que una de estas mujeres es can�bal”.

Flood Shmud

It was flooding in California. As the flood waters were raising, a man was on
the stoop of his house and another man in a row boat came by. The man in the row
boat told the man on the stoop to get in and he’d save him. The man on the stoop
said, no, he had faith in God and would wait for God to save him. The flood
waters kept rising and the man had to go to the second floor of his house. A man
in a motor boat came by and told the man in the house to get in because he had
come to rescue him. The man in the house said no thank you. He had perfect faith
in God and would wait for God to save him. The flood waters kept rising. Pretty
soon they were up to the man’s roof and he got out on the roof. A helicopter
then came by, lowered a rope and the pilot shouted down in the man in the house
to climb up the rope because the helicopter had come to rescue him. The man in
the house wouldn’t get in. He told the pilot that he had faith in God and would
wait for God to rescue him. The flood waters kept rising and the man in the
house drowned. When he got to heaven, he asked God where he went wrong. He told
God that he had perfect faith in God, but God had let him drown.
“What more do you want from me?” asked God. “I sent you two boats and a
helicopter.”

Shakespeare's Ta

Because Shakespeare was so deeply absorbed during the writing of his tragedies, he put almost impossible strains on his bladder. To make matters even worse, the tiny hooks and eyes that his tailor had placed on his pants slowed down the process considerably. So the playwright demanded that the tailor make larger hooks and eyes.After a few days of trial, the Bard reported back, “Truly it’s speedier these larger hooks and eyes, but still and all, when I’m in a hurry, it’s not quick enough. So I want you to redesign my trousers using leather ties.” The tailor did exactly as he was told and Shakespeare jumped into the pants without delay.Exactly one week later, however, the playwright was back at his door.”Truly the leather straps are faster than those hooks and eyes, but even so it’s still too slow. So I propose that you throw away the straps and just cut me a little hole.”The tailor bounced to his feet.”You ask for hooks, I give you hooks. You ask for straps, I give you straps. But holes? Holes! You of all people ought to know that . . . there’s no holes, Bard!”
