Laugh-a-Little, Cos Confucius Says!! {Part I}




Been sometime again since I last blogged. Well, hv been thinking abt a lotta things, but somehow cudn't find the time to blog. Will do so at the earliest.

I just came across some really nice Confucius jokes. Thought I'll post 'em here. Fun to read. After all life is not just abt thinking all the time, isn't it!!!!! Here we go...


1 - Virginity like bubble, one prick - all gone.

2 - Man who run in front of car get tired.

3 - Man who run behind car get exhausted.

4 - Man with hand in pocket feel cocky all day.

5 - Foolish man give wife grand piano, wise man give wife upright organ.

6 - Man who walk through airport turnstile sideways going to Bangkok.

7 - Man with one chopstick go hungry.

8 - Man who scratch ass should not bite fingernails.

9 - Man who eat many prunes get good run for money.

10 - Baseball is wrong; man with four balls cannot walk.

11 - Panties not best thing on earth, but next to best thing on earth.

12 - War does not determine who is right; war determine who is left.

13 - Wife who put husband in doghouse soon find him in cat house.

14 - Man who fight with wife all day get no piece at night.

15 - It take many nails to build crib, only one screw to fill it.

16 - Man who drive like hell bound to get there.

17 - Man who stand on toilet is high on pot.

18 - Man who live in glass house should change clothes in basement.

19 - Man who fish in other man’s well often catch crabs.

20 - Man who fart in church sit in own pew.

21 - Crowded elevator smell different to midget.


Hehehehehe...

think about.

Another Brick In The Wall...



"All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall."



A few lines from a very famous song. Perhaps the most famous song by the Gods of Psychedelic Rock., Pink Floyd. Do I need to put in an introduction for them? I personally see no scope or purpose. It would be an insult to them if I "introduce" them to you...

How many of us have heard this song? I'd say almost everyone whose eyes turn and return to this blog must hv heard this song at least once in his/her lifetime. And for those who hvn't heard, I really can't say much...

How many of us hum this song on and off? Again, I'd say the same thing...

Now comes the tricky part...

How many of us hv "understood" the meaning behind this song... The underlying message, the pain, the agony?

To be honest, I doubt that many of us have. But anyway, today I am not writing to explain the meaning of this masterpiece... I am writing just to make another point with the help of this song...

I was chatting with someone yesterday... Someone who has been very important in my life. Rather most important in one aspect. Anyway, we were discussing something and I was trying to make a point, which was very conveniently by-passed by the person I was talking to.
And suddenly I felt weird. VERY weird. The whole discussion seemed to come to an abrupt halt. Whatever I was trying to say just fell off into oblivion.

The feeling was almost the same that would be experienced by someone driving a car and crashing head-on into a very hard stone-wall. Some people do that on purpose, trying to break the wall with all their might, but end up being crushed themselves, with hardly a scratch inflicted on the wall.

In fact, there are times in everyone's life when they feel the same situation. U trying to make a point, trying to put ur ideas in someone else's head with all ur abilities, but nothing happens. ABSOLUTELY nothing. And then it's inevitable that u feel a little perplexed, a bit perturbed and a tinge frustrated. U feel like cryin' "WTF" out loud. But as soon as u try to, u realise that even those words would bounce back and hit ur own ears. So no point sayin' that too!

That reminded me of perhaps one of the most amazing and powerful walls of the world.
"The Great Wall of China". A wall that has been there since eternity. A wall that has been witness to so much. A wall tried to be grazed to the ground innumerable times. But the wall still lives. And will live. And it is NOT affected by ANYTHING. NOTHING AT ALL. No battering rams, no guns, no cannons... nothing. No matter how hard u try...

That's the tag I give to such "stone-walled" people.

What r u thinking? Are u identifying with such a situation happening ever in ur life?

Think.

Love, Peace n' Harmony
