OBSERVING THE BABY

Observing The Baby One night a wife found her husband standing over their baby's crib. Silently she watched him. As he stood looking down at the sleeping infant, she saw on his face a mixture of emotions: disbelief, doubt, delight, amazement, enchantment, scepticism.

Touched by this unusual display and the deep emotions it aroused, with eyes glistening she slipped her arm around her husband. "A penny for your thoughts," she said.

"It's amazing!" he replied. "I just can't see how anybody can make a crib like that for only $46.50."

is this for real or a joke? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,353636,00.html


I don't know about his particular case but I have read that all of us have the genes to regrow arms, legs, whatever but that they are turned off after we are born. Kind of like a lizards tail, it comes off when an attacker tries to catch the lizard, and then the lizard just regrows a new tail. I have read reports that Scientists are actually trying to figure out how to turn the genes back on in patients that have lost limbs. The Military is a prime place to try this due to the multitude of injuries. I believe it is in the VERY early stages though.

Poland's worst air disaster occurred today when a small two-seat Cessna crashed into a cemetery. Polish search and rescue workers have recovered 826 bodies so far and expect that number to increase as digging continues into the night

Police recently arrested a man who was selling pills that would give you eternal youth. Police discovered that it was the fourth time this man was arrested. The earlier arrests were made in 1799, 1852 and 1921

Oh, I'm amazed twofold: a "Polish joke" here and it's almost funny.

You know Matthew, if you really want and I'm in a mood, I could try to translate some Polish "Polish joke" (yes, there are such and I claim they are better :P ) for you.
Most of them require some understanding of Polish culture but maybe one can find something suitable.

Take care,
a.m.

In an interview, Pamela Anderson said that if she were Hillary, she would leave President Clinton.

In response, Clinton said, "If Pamela Anderson were Hillary, none of this would have happened in the first place."

I designed and was going to build myself a new desktop supercomputer, It would have been ~750 times faster than my current Q6600.

But then I came to a devesting realization, I dont know linux so I would have to use windows. On a computer that fast the 3 monthly BSODs would happen every 3 hours!!!!!!

Little Johnny... Nickels and Dimes
Little Johnny is always being teased by the other neighborhood boys for being stupid. Their favorite joke is to offer Johnny his choice between a nickel and a dime -- Little Johnny always takes the nickel.

One day, after Johnny takes the nickel, a neighbor man takes him aside and says, "Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. Don't you know that a dime is worth more than a nickel, even though the nickel's bigger?"

Johnny grins and says, "Well, if I took the dime, they'd stop doing it, and so far I've made $20!"
If you can't take a joke you should never have joined.

My new workout plan is working! I'm benching 310 now. Or maybe 3:15 - whenever the weights are free
