Guest guest Posted April 28, 2000 Report Share Posted April 28, 2000 End of the week : ) Thanks to jerry for this one. **************************** The efficiency expert concluded his lecture with a note of caution. " You don't want to try these techniques at home. " " Why not? " asked someone from the back of the audience. " I watched my wife's routine at breakfast for years, " the expert explained. " She made lots of trips to the refrigerator, stove, table and cabinets, often carrying just a single item at a time. 'Hon,' I suggested, 'Why don't you try carrying several things at once?' " The voice from the back asked, " Did it save time? " The expert replied, " Actually, yes. It used to take her 20 minutes to get breakfast ready. Now I do it in seven. " ========================= Quick Wit: Kid : Do you punish people for things they don't do? Teacher: No. Kid : Great! I didn't do my homework. ======================== Gandhi: Father of the Nation Sometime after independence of India, four great leaders of the country - Mahatma Gandhi, Subhash Chandra, Lal Bahadur Shastri and Jawaharlal Nehru went to heaven. God asked Lal Bahadur Shastri how many children he had during his time on earth. He replied saying he had three! Happy with the relatively good family planning adopted, God gave Shastri a Mercedes! Subhash Chandra Bose is asked the same question. When he replied that he had 10 children, God is a bit upset and gives him a Ford. Jawaharlal is next and on replying that he had 15 children, God is pretty angry and gives him a Skoda. Sometime later the three see Mahatma Gandhi returning on foot. They ask why God had not given him anything. Gandhiji replied with anger, " Someone told God that I was the 'father of the nation'!
