Coffee

2006-07-29T10:27:00.000-07:00

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor.

Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.

Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups, porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite. Telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

All the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.

Be assured that the cup itself, adds no quality to the coffee in most cases just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups, and then began eyeing each other's cups.

Now consider this: Life is the coffee, and the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of Life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee." It is the coffee that makes us who we are, not the cups : enjoy your coffee.

Wrong E-mail. Lol

2006-07-28T11:30:00.000-07:00

Lesson to be learned from typing the wrong email address!

A Minneapolis couple decided to go to Florida to thaw out during a particularly icy winter. They planned to stay at the same hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier. Because of hectic schedules, it was difficult to coordinate their travel schedules. So, the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on Thursday, with his wife flying down the following day. The husband checked into the hotel.There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an email to his wife. However, he accidentally left out one letter in her email address, and without realizing his error, sent the email. Meanwhile, somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned home from her husband's funeral. He was a minister who was called home to glory following a heart attack. The widow decided to check her email expecting messages from relatives and friends. After reading the first message, she screamed and fainted. The widow's son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read:

To: My Loving Wife

Subject: I've Arrived

Date: December 26, 2005

I know you're surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and you are allowed to send e- mails to your loved ones. I've just arrived and have been checked in. I see that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you then! Hope your journey is as uneventful as mine was.

P.S. Sure is freaking hot down here.

LOL. New virus.

New Virus

There is a dangerous virus being passed electronically, orally and by hand. This virus is called:

Worm-Overload-Recreational-Killer (WORK).

If you receive WORK from any of your colleagues, your boss or anyone else via any means DO NOT TOUCH IT. This virus will wipe out your private life completely. If you should come into contact with WORK put your jacket on and take two good friends to the nearest bar. Purchase the antidote known as:

Work-Isolator-Neutralizer-Extractor (WINE)
or
Bothersome-Employer-Eliminator-Rebooter (BEER).

Take the antidote repeatedly until WORK has been completely eliminated from your system. You should forward this warning to 5 friends. If you do not have 5 friends, you have already been infected and WORK is controlling your life.

un-ig-nor-able

2006-06-06T09:42:00.000-07:00

Unignorable. Although this is not actually a word, at least to my spell check, the meaning is quite clear; to be incapable of ignoring. Yet I find it highly amusing that I had to click Ignore to the word unignorable.

Resurection

2006-06-02T13:52:00.000-07:00

When life leaves you, and existance replaces that life, What are we left with?
and then if/ when that life returns, and we come to a pecefull place, what next?

Life

2006-05-26T08:54:00.000-07:00

life is more then existing. To exist you simply have to be. To live there has to be action, motion, movement, purpuse. If your life has no meaning, isnt moving anywhere, has not action... then are you any more alive then the machines we create?

If...

2006-05-26T08:53:00.000-07:00

If they really are out to get you, are you really paranoid, or just cautious?

Lemons.

2006-05-22T09:37:00.000-07:00
