Nasa development of a pen

When NASA began the launch off astronauts into space,
they found out
that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity. (Ink
won't flow down to the writing surface)

In order to solve this problem, they hired Andersen
Consulting (Accenture today).

It took them one decade and 12 million dollars. They
developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside
down, under water, in practically any surface
including crystal and in a temperature range from
below freezing to over 300 degrees C.
But the russians did only use this pen...

Second opinion

The doctor said, "Woody, the good news is I can cure your headaches.

The bad new is that it will require castration. You have a very rare condition, which causes your testicles to press on Your spine and the pressure creates one hell of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles."

Woody was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to live for. He had no choice but to go under the knife.

When he left the hospital, he was without a headache for the first time in 20 years, but he felt like he was missing an important part of himself.

As he walked down the street, he realized that he felt like a different person. He could make a new beginning and live a new life. He saw a men's clothing store and thought, "That's what I need... A new suit."

He entered the shop and told the salesman, "I'd like a new suit." The elderly tailor eyed him briefly and said, "Let's see... Size 44 long."

Woody laughed, "That's right, how did you know?"

"Been in the business 60 years!" the tailor said.

Woody tried on the suit.. It fit perfectly.



As Woody admired himself in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about a New shirt?"

Woody thought for a moment and then said, "Sure."

The salesman eyed Woody and said, "Let's see, 34 sleeves and 16-1/2 neck."

Woody was surprised, That's right, how did you know?"

"Been in the business 60 years."

Woody tried on the shirt and it fit perfectly.




Woody walked comfortably around the shop and the salesman asked," How about some new underwear?"

Woody thought for a moment and said, "Sure."

The salesman said, "Let's see... Size 36."

Woody laughed, "Ah ha! I got you; I've worn a size 34 since I was 18 years old."

The salesman shook his head, "You can't wear a size 34. A size 34 would press your testicles up against the base of your spine and give you one hell of a headache."




New suit - $400

New shirt - $36

New underwear - $6

Second Opinion - PRICELESS

Jayesh: Tell her you love her....

Jayesh: Tell her you love her....

Tell her you love her....

10th Grade



As I sat there in English class, I stared at the girl next to
me.

She was my so-called “best friend”. I stared at her long, silky hair. I wished she were mine, but she didn’t notice me like
that .
And I knew it. After class she walked up to me and asked me for the notes she had missed the day before, and I handed them to her.
She said “thanks” and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I wanted to tell her. I wanted her to know that I don’t want to be just
friends. I love her, but I’m just too shy. And I don’t know
why.


11th Grade

The phone rang. It was her on the other end. She was in tears, mumbling on and on about how her love had broke her heart. She asked me to come over because she didn’t want to be alone, so I did. As I sat next to her on the sofa, I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine. After 2 hours, a Drew Barrymore movie, and three bags of chips, she decided to go to sleep. She looked at me, said “thanks,” and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don’t want to be just friends. I love her, but I’m just too shy. And I don’t know why.


12th Grade

The day before prom she walked to my locker. “My date is sick,” she said. He’s not going to go. Well, I didn’t have a date and in 7th grade we made a promise that if neither of
us had dates we would go together just as “best friends,” so we did. Prom night after everything was over I was standing at her front door step. I stared at her. She smiled at me and stared at me with her crystal eyes. I want her to be mine, but she doesn’t think of me like that, and I know it. Then she said, “I had the best time, thanks!” and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don’t want to be just friends. I love her, but I’m just too shy. And I don’t know why…



Graduation Day

A day passed. A week passed. A month passed. Before I could blink, it was graduation day. I watched as her perfect body floated like an angel up on stage to get her diploma. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn’t notice me like that, and I knew it. Before everyone went home, she came to me in her smock and hat, and she cried as I hugged her. Then, she lifted her head from my shoulder and said, “You’re my best friend, thanks!” and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don’t want to be just friends. I love her, but I’m just too shy. And I don’t know
why…


A Few Years Later

Now, I sit in the pews of the church. She is getting married,
now. I watched her say, “I do” and drive off to her new
life, married to another man. I wanted her to be mine but she didn’t see me like that, and I knew it. But before she drove away, she came to me and said, “You came!” She said, “thanks!” and kissed me on the cheek.

I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don’t want to
be just friends. I love her, but I’m just too shy. And I don’t know why…


Funeral

Yrs passed, and I looked down at the coffin of the girl who
used to be my best friend.” At the service they read a diary entry she had wrote in her high school years.

This is what it read: I stare at him wishing he were mine. But he doesn’t notice me like that, and I know it. I want to tell him. I want him to know that I don’t want to be just friends. I love him, but I’m just too shy, and I don’t know why. I wish he would tell me he loved me

i wish I did too

i thought to myself, and I cried.
