On the internet nothing is illegal, its all e-legal…

I’m so old that, when I was in school, history was called current affairs.

Don’t accept your dog’s admiration as conclusive evidence that you are wonderful.

Laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry and the world laughs louder.

I always give waiters a tip, but they never seem to appreciate my advice.

Nothing in the world is more expensive than a girl who’s totally free for the weekend.

The toughest part of a diet isn’t watching what you eat. It’s watching what other people eat.

Never make the same mistake twice… there are so many new ones to make!

One day, your life will flash in front of your eyes… Make it worth watching.

Worry is the darkroom in which ‘negatives’ are developed.

MBA vs BCOM student

This particular joke won an award for the best joke in a competition organized in Britain and this joke was sent by an Indian……

A MBA and a Bcom go on a camping trip, set up their tent,and fell asleep.

Some hours later, the Bcom wakes his MBA friend. ” look up at the sky and tell me what you see.”

The MBA replies, “I see millions of stars.”

“What does that tell you?”

The MBA ponders for a minute.

“Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.

Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo.

Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three.

Theologically, it’s evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant.

Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.

What does it tell you?”

The Bcom is silent for a moment, then speaks.

“Practically…Someone has stolen our tent”.

It’s always a good time to CHANGE!

The first step toward getting somewhere
is to decide that you’re not going to stay where you
are.

You’re a product of your environment.
So choose an environment that will best develop you
toward your goals.

Analyze your life in terms of your environment.
Are the things around you helping you toward your
success or are they holding you back?

Your world today is a living _expression of how you
are using and have used your mind.
It’s something that you can change at any time.

You don’t have to remain a captive of your
environment.
Don’t say “If I could change, I would change,”
say “I can change, and I will change.”

Foreign language!

A mother mouse and a baby mouse are walking along, when all
of a sudden, a cat attacks them. The mother mouse goes, “BARK!” and the cat runs away.

“See?” says the mother mouse to her baby.

“Now do you see why it’s important to learn a foreign language?”
