Training

A mother was working in the kitchen listening to her son playing with his new electric train in the living room. She heard the train stop, and her son said, “All of you sons of bitches who want to get off, get the hell off now, cause this is the last stop! And all you sons of bitches who are returning and want to get on, get your asses on the train now, cause we’re going down the tracks!”

The mother went into the living room and told her son, “We don’t use that kind of language in this house. Now go to you room and stay there for TWO HOURS. When you come out, you may go back and play with your train, but only if you use nice language.”

Two hours later, the boy came out of the bedroom and resumed playing with his train. Soon the train stopped and the mother heard her son say “All passengers who are disembarking the train, please remember to take all of you belongings with you. We thank you for riding with us today and hope your trip was a pleasant one. We hope you will ride with us again soon.”

She hears the little boy continue. “For those of you just boarding, we ask you to stow all of your hand luggage under you seat. Remember, there is no smoking on the train. We hope you will have a pleasant and relaxing journey with us today.”

Then, the child added, “And for those of you who are pissed off about the TWO HOUR DELAY, see the bitch in the kitchen.”

How to Write Your Thesis

Scene: It’s a fine beautiful day in the forest and a rabbit is sitting outside his burrow, typing away on his laptop.
Along comes a fox, out for a walk.

Fox: “What are you working on?” Rabbit: “My Thesis paper to graduate from University.” Fox: “Hmmmmm. What is it about?” Rabbit: “Oh, I’m writing about how rabbits eat foxes.”

(There is an incredulous pause)

Fox: “That’s ridiculous! Any fool knows that rabbits don’t eat foxes!” Rabbit: “Come with me and I’ll show you!”

They both disappear into the rabbit’s burrow. After a few minutes, gnawing on a fox bone, the rabbit returns to his lap top and resumes typing. Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the hard working rabbit. (Tippy-tap, tippy-tap, tippy-tippy-tap).

Wolf: “What’s that you are writing?” Rabbit: “I’m doing a thesis on how rabbits eats wolves.” (loud guffaws). Wolf: “You don’t expect to get such garbage published, do you?” Rabbit: “No problem. Do you want to see why?”

The rabbit and the wolf go into the burrow, and again the rabbit returns by himself. This time he is patting his stomach. He goes back to his typing. (Tippy-tap, tippy-tap, tippy-tippy-tap).

Finally a bear comes along and asks, Bear: “What are you doing?” Rabbit: “I’m doing a thesis on how rabbits eats bears.” Bear: “Well that’s absurd!” Rabbit: “Come into my home and I’ll show you.”

SCENE: Inside the rabbit’s burrow. In one corner, there is a pile of fox bones. In another corner is a pile of wolf bones. On the other side of the room a huge lion is belching and picking his teeth.

THE MORAL OF THE STORY: ———————– It doesn’t matter what you choose for a thesis topic. It doesn’t matter what you use for your data. It doesn’t even matter if your topic makes sense. What matters is who you have for a thesis advisor.

Multi-Syllable Words

Little Johnny goes to school, and the teacher says “Today we are going to learn multi-syllable words, class. Does anybody have an example of a multi-syllable word?” Little Johnny waves his hand, “Me, miss, me, me!”
Teacher says “All right, little Johnny, what is your multi-syllable word?” Little Johnny says “Mas-tur-bate.” Teacher smiles and says “Wow, little Johnny, that’s a mouthful.” Little Johnny says “No, miss, you’re thinking of a blow job. I’m talking about a wank.

GIRLFRIEND

Sent by a friend: I’m currently running the latest version of
GirlFriend and I’ve been having some problems lately.I’ve been running the same
version of DrinkingBuddies1.0 forever as my primary application, and
all the GirlFriend releases I’ve tried have always conflicted with it. I
hear that DrinkingBuddies won’t crash if GirlFriend is run in background
mode and its sound is turned off. However, for the life of me I can’tfind
the switch that turns the sound off. So, I just run them separately, and they
work just fine.
GirlFriend also seems to have a problem co-existing with my Golf
program, often trying to abort Golf with some sort of timing
incompatibility. I probably should have stayed with GirlFriend 1.0, but I
thought I might see better performance from GirlFriend 2.0. After months of
conflicts and other problems, I consulted a friend who has had experience with
GirlFriend 2.0. He said I probably didn’t have enough cache to run GirlFriend
2.0, and eventually it would require a Token Ring to run properly. He was
right. As soon as I purged my cache, it uninstalled itself. Shortly
after that, I installed GirlFriend 3.0 beta.All the bugs were supposed to
be gone, but the first time I used it, it gave me a virus anyway.
I had to clean out my whole system and shut down for while. I very
cautiously upgraded to GirlFriend 4.0. This time I used a SCSI probe first and
also installed a virus protection program. It worked okay for a while until I
discovered that GirlFriend 1.0 was still in my system. I tried running
GirlFriend 1.0 again with GirlFriend 4.0 still installed, but GirlFriend 4.0 has
a feature I didn’t know about that automatically senses the presence of any
other version of GirlFriend and communicates with it in some way, which
results in the immediate removal of both versions.
The version I have now works pretty well, but there are still some
problems. Like all versions of GirlFriend, it is written in some obscure
language I can’t understand, much less reprogram. Frankly I think there is
too much attention paid to the look and feel rather than the desired
functionality. Also, I’ve never liked how the GirlFriend Series is totally
object-oriented. A year ago, a friend of mine upgraded his version of
GirlFriend to GirlFriendPlus 1.0, which is a Terminate and Stay Resident
version of GirlFriend. He discovered that GirlFriendPlus 1.0 expires within a
year if you don’t upgrade to Fiancee 1.0. So he did, but soon after that, he had
to upgrade to Wife 1.0, which he describes as a huge resource hog. It has
taken up all his space, so he can’t load anything else. One of the primary
reasons he decided to go with Wife 1.0 was because it came bundled with
FreeSexPlus. Well, it turns out the resource allocation module of Wife 1.0 often
prohibits access to FreeSexPlus, even with new Plug-Ins. On top of that, Wife
1.0 came with MotherInLaw 1.0, although he did not
ask for it. This has an automatic pop-up feature he can’t control, and it’s
impossible to modulate its sound. I suggested that he consider installing
Mistress 1.0, but he said he heard if you try to run it without first
uninstalling any of the Wife series, Wife will delete all MSMoney files and
crash the system before uninstalling itself. With a purged cache, Mistress
1.0 will never install. The moral of this story is: Know your system’s
hardware requirements, software peculiarities and limited range of
compatibilities and do be careful with those alluring upgrades.

New Factory

The president of ABC decided that it was time to build a new factory. He asked representatives from three development companies to come in and make a bid on the project. The three companies showed up at the scheduled meeting. The president of ABC asked the first company, Bruin Construction, who’s president earned his MBA from UCLA, ” How much will your company charge for this project?” “2 million,” said Bruin. “1 million for materials and 1 million for labor.”

Then president then asks the same question to the second company, Cardinal Construction, whose president earned his MBA from Stanford. Cardinal answered, “3 million, 1.5 million for materials, 1.3 million for labor, and 0.2 million for licenses and permits.”

Finally, the president asks the last company , Trojan Construction, whose president earned his MBA from USC. Trojan answered, ” 4 million.”

“FOUR MILLION,” yelled the president of ABC. “How do you breakdown the cost?”

Trojan replied, “1 million for you, 1 million for me, and 2 million to get the guy from UCLA to build the factory!
