Does that make SENSE

 

Now if you think of it,

it really makes sense.

Rational and sensible things

but you'll just laugh it off....kyun? Kyun?

Ain't all sensible things ought to be followed?? huh?

 

 1. If time doesn't wait for you, don't worry!
Just remove the damn battery from the clock and Enjoy life!

2. Expecting the world to treat u fairly coz u r a good person is like
expecting the lion not to attack u coz u r a vegetarian. Think about it.

3. Beauty isn't measured by outer appearance and what clothes we wear,
but what we are inside. So, try going out naked tomorrow and see the admiration!

4. Don't walk as if you rule the world,
walk as if you don't care who rules the world!
That's called Attitude…! Keep on rocking!

5. Every lady hopes that her daughter will marry a better man than she did
and is convinced that her son will never find a wife as good as his father did!!!

6. He was a good man. He never smoked, drank had no affair.
When he died, the insurance company refused the claim.
They said, he who never lived, cannot die!

7. A man threw his wife in a pond of Crocodiles?
He's now being harassed by the Animal Rights Activists for being cruel to the Crocodiles!

8. So many options for suicide:
Poison, sleeping pills, hanging,
jumping from a building, lying on train tracks, but we chose Marriage, slow sure!

9. Only 20 percent boys have brains, rest have girlfriends!

10. All desirable things in life are either
illegal, banned, expensive or married to someone else!

11. Laziness is our biggest enemy- Jawaharlal Nehru
We should learn to love our enemies- Mahatma Gandhi
Ab aap bataaye kiski sune bapu di ya chacha di???

12. When things go wrong, when sadness fills your heart,
When tears flows from your eyes always say these words…
Eh Ganpat, chal daru la…

 13. 10% of road accidents are due to drunken driving.
Which makes it a logical statement that
90% of accidents are due to driving without drinking!

 

really funny !!!

A father puts his three year old daughter to bed,

told her a story and listened to her prayers which she ended by saying

"God bless Mommy, God bless daddy, God bless grandma and good-bye grandpa."



The father asked, "Why did you say good-bye grandpa?"



The little girl said, "I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to do."



The next day grandpa died.






The father thought it was a strange coincidence.



A few months later the father put the girl to bed and
listened to her prayers, which went like this:

"God bless Mommy, God Bless daddy and good-bye grandma."






The next day the grandmother died.



Oh my god, thought the father, this kid is in contact with the other side.





Several weeks later when the girl was going to bed the dad heard her say,

"God bless Mommy and good-bye daddy."






He practically went into shock.

He couldn't sleep all night and got up at the crack of dawn to go to his office.

He was nervous as a cat all day, had lunch sent in and watched the clock.

He figured if he could get by until midnight he would be okay.




He felt safe in the office, so instead of going home at the end of the day he stayed there,looking at his watch and jumping at every sound.



Finally midnight arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief and went home.






When he got home his wife said

"I've never seen you work so late, what's the matter?"



He said "I don't want to talk about it, I've just spent the worst day of my life."






She said "You think you had a bad day, you'll never believe what happened HERE.



He asked "What"??????





She said "This morning our neighbour James suddenly died."

 

French Computers

A language instructor was explaining to her class that in French, nouns unlike their English counterparts, are grammatically designated as masculine or feminine.

"'House,' in French, is feminine - 'la maison' and 'Pencil,' in French, is masculine 'le crayon.'"

One puzzled student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?"

The teacher did not know, and the word wasn't in her French dictionary.

So for fun she split the class into two groups appropriately enough, by gender and asked them to decide whether 'computer' should be a masculine or feminine noun. Both groups were required to give four reasons for their recommendation.

The men's group decided that computers should definitely be of the feminine gender ('la computer'), because:

1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for possible later retrieval; and

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be masculine ('le computer'), because:

1. In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data but they are still clueless;

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you'd waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.

The Importance of communication in organization...

Marriage But No Babies!

A six-year-old boy told his father he wanted to marry the little girl across the street.

The father being modern and well-schooled in handling children, hid his smile behind his hand.

"That's a serious step," he said. "Have you thought it out completely?"

"Sure," his young son answered. "We can spend one week in my room and the next in hers. It's right across the street, so I can run home if I get lonely in the night."

"How about transportation?" the father asked.

"I have my wagon, and we both have our tricycles," the little boy answered.

The boy had an answer to every question the father raised.

Finally, in exasperation,the man asked, "What about babies? When you're married, you're liable to have babies, you know."

"We've thought about that, too," the little boy replied. "We're not going to have babies. Every time she lays an EGG, I'm going to step on it!"

Marriage proposal

Madam :

I am an olden young uncle living only with myself in Lahore. Having seen your advertisement for marriage purposes, I decided to press myself on you and hope you will take me nicely.
I am a soiled son from inside Punjab. I am nice and big, six foot tall, and six inches long. My body is filled with hardness, as because I am working hardly.  I am playing hardly also.
 Especially I like cricket, and I am a good batter and I am a fast baller. Whenever I come running in for balling, other batters start running.  Everybody is scared of my rapid balls that bounce a lot.

I am very nice man. I am always laughing loudly at everyone. I am jolly. I am gay. Especially ladies, they are saying I am nice and soft. I am always giving respect to the ladies. I am always allowing ladies to get on top.  That is how nice I am.

I am not having any bad habits. I am not drinking and I am not sucking tobacco or anything else. Every morning I am going to the Jim and I am pumping like anything.
Daily I am pumping and pumping.  If you want you can come and see how much I am pumping the dumb belles in the Jim.

I am having a lot of money in my pants and my pants is always open for you. I am such a nice man, but still I am living with myself only.  What to do ? So I am taking things into my own hands everyday.  That is why I am pressing myself on you, so that you will come in my house and take my things into your hand.

If you are marrying me madam, I am telling you, I will be loving you very hard every day.  In fact, I will stop pumping dumb belles in the Jim. If you are not marrying me madam and not coming to me,  I will press you and press you until you come. So I am placing my head between your nicely smelling feet and looking up with lots of hope.

 I am waiting very badly for your reply and I am stiff with anticipation.

Expecting soon
Yours and only yours

Choudhary Warraich,

born by mother in Okara and become big in Lahore, Punjab

Cartwheeling for Cash

One day a little girl came running into her house yelling, "Mommy, I got five dollars!"

 

The mother was curious, so she asked her child where she got the five dollars from.

 

The little girl replied, ''Tommy down the street gave me five dollars for doing cartwheel while he sat in the tree.

 

The mother told her daughter, "Don't you know that Tommy is just trying to see your panties."

 

''OOOOhhhh'' said the little girl.

 

The next day the little girl came running into the house yelling, "Mommy, I got ten dollars. The mother asked, "Where did you get the ten dollars from?"

 

The little girl replied, "Tommy down the street gave me ten dollars for doing a cartwheel while he sat up in the tree and laughed."

 

The mother replied, "Didn't I tell you that he is...''

 

Before the mother could finish, the little girl said, ''Wait Mommy. I tricked him, I didn't wear any panties today.''

THE FOUR CATS

Four men were bragging about how smart their cats were

The first man was an Engineer, the second man was an Accountant, the third
man was a Chemist and the fourth man was a Government Employee.

To show off, the Engineer called his cat,

"T-square, do your stuff."

T-square pranced over to the desk, took out some paper and pen and promptly
drew a circle, a square, and a triangle. Everyone agreed that was pretty
smart.

But the Accountant said his cat could do better.

He called his cat and said,

"Spreadsheet, do your stuff."

Spreadsheet went out to the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He
divided them into 4 equal piles of 3 cookies ...........Everyone agreed
that was good.

But the Chemist said his cat could do better. He called his cat and said
"Measure, do your stuff."

Measure got up, walked to the fridge, took out a quart of milk,, got a 10
ounce glass from the cupboard and poured exactly 8 ounces without spilling a
drop into the glass.

Everyone agreed that was pretty good.

Then the three men turned to the Government Employee and said, "What can
your cat do?"

The Government Employee called his cat and said.....

"Coffee Break.....do your stuff."

Coffee Break jumped to his feet........ ...

ate the cookies..... ......... .

drank the milk........ ......

sh*t on the paper....... ......... ....

screwed the other three cats........ ......... ....

claimed he injured his back while doing so.......... ........

filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions.. .......

put in for Workers Compensation. ......... .....and

went home for the rest of the day on sick leave....... ......!!! !!!!!!!

Safe Instant Messaging - Ten tips to protect yourself while chatting online

Safe Instant Messaging

Ten tips to protect yourself while chatting online
 
Just like e-mail, instant messaging (IM) also poses security threats. In some ways, the threats are more severe in this case, because to use instant messaging, you have to bypass any firewall that you've installed on your machine. This means that potential threats, such as viruses, worms or Trojans already have a door that opens to your computer through the firewall. What's more, they also have a readymade list of your friends which they can use for further infection and propagation.
 
For instance, you could receive a message with a URL from a trusted source, while the URL may lead you to a Web page that contains malicious code, such as a Trojan. Within minutes, the URL will be sent from your instant message ID to your buddy list, with all your friends assuming that you've sent the link. If you or any of them click the URL, an infection is guaranteed. The same thing can also happen through file transfers, where the attachment may contain a Trojan, virus, or worm, or a combination of these.
 
Such malicious code can make a lot of mischief on your machine, such as stealing passwords and other personal information, using your machine in denial of service attacks, configuring your hard disk to share all your files, and so on.
 
It's essential, therefore, to be very careful while using instant messaging. Here are some things you can do for your protection.
 
  • Speak only to known people
    Instant messaging should ideally be used only to speak to people who are on your Contacts list. Making contact with a stranger over chat is fraught with risks, as you don't know the other person's intentions or why he or she wants to chat with you. Chatting in public rooms also pose a similar risk. When you receive chat invitations, you should be careful of who you add to your contacts or friends or buddy list. Add only those people whom you know well and trust; and accept invitations to be added to the contacts' or friends' lists of only such people.
     
  • Be wary of links and downloads
    If you receive an image, link or other files over IM, first confirm that they are from someone you trust. You should never download anything or click a link sent by strangers. The second step is to confirm with the senders if they have sent anything—if it's a malicious file or link that used the sender's ID to propagate itself, your friend won't know anything about it.
     
  • Be secretive of personal information
    You should not give your name or email ID in areas such as public chat rooms. It's also advisable not to disclose personal information such as telephone numbers, passwords, bank account or credit card numbers in IM conversations, even if you're talking to someone you know. Most IM service providers don't ask you for personal information. So, if you get a message professing to be from the service provider and asking you to 'verify' your ID or password, you can be sure that it's fake and a security threat. Ignore such messages.
     
  • Create good screen names
    Ideally, your screen name for IM should not give out personal information like your name or email ID. Using a nickname is much safer.
     
  • Be careful on public computers
    If you use IM at a cyber café, don't use the option of logging on automatically. Otherwise, your information will be visible to people who use the computer after you.
     
  • Never respond to unsolicited messages
    If someone is sending you unsolicited chat invitations or messages, you should not respond to them. Most IM applications give you the option to block senders—use that.
     
  • Advise your children about IM security
    Ensure that your children are safe while using IM. Advise them against responding to unsolicited messages, giving out personal information, and downloading files over IM. Speak to them about the threats of using IM and how they can use it safely.
     
  • Download and install updates
    Be sure to download and install any security updates provided by your IM service provider. These will help to plug any security loopholes in the application.
     
  • Avoid using IM at work
    Using IM applications at work puts not only you, but the entire corporate network at risk for infection. That's because most IM applications open a way through firewalls, which is risky. Therefore, try not to use IM at work, unless your employer has a corporate IM solution, policy and security measures in place.
     
  • Use encryption on corporate networks
    If a corporate wants to use IM, an instant-messaging application that enables encryption should be used. Several providers have such applications for corporate use. In addition, users should be aware of the security risks, and the corporate security policy should involve keeping IM logs to detect suspicious activity.

Short Tips: Windows XP/Vista

1. Add a shortcut to a file in the Start menu
You can add shortcuts for frequently used files to your Start menu. Browse to the file name that you want to add; drag it to the Start button and hold for a while. When the Start menu opens, drag the file to where you want to create the shortcut and drop it. You'll see the shortcut icon appear.

2. Sort your files using the Details view
To search for or sort files within a particular folder, open the folder, click View and then Details. Your files will be listed with the details—name, date modified, size, and type—in columns. You can sort the files by clicking any column heading once (for newest to oldest) or twice (oldest to newest). You can then quickly locate the file you're searching for.

3. Add details to music, pictures, and videos
When you save music, pictures, and videos to your Windows XP computer, the Details view of that folder shows certain columns by default. To sort or search for files within this folder, you can add more columns to the Details view. Click View and then Details. Right-click any column heading and click More. Click the checkbox against the details you want to add and click Move Up or Move Down to fix their location in the Details view. Click OK.

4. Increase text clarity in Windows XP
You can adjust display settings so that on-screen text looks clearer to you. Right-click on the Desktop and click Properties. A dialog box will open; click the Appearance tab and the Effects button. Ensure that the checkbox against 'Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts' is selected. Then, click the down arrow under this option and select ClearType. Click OK and then click OK again to close the dialog box. You'll find most fonts clearer and easier to read with this.

5. Customize the buttons available on toolbars in Windows XP
You can add or remove buttons from toolbars available in some programs. Right-click the toolbar and click Customize. The Customize Toolbar dialog box opens—you can add, remove, or rearrange the buttons from here. Click Close when you're done.

6. Use the Quick Launch Toolbar
The Quick Launch bar is located to the right of the Start button and contains shortcuts to your frequently used programs. To display the Quick Launch bar, right-click the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, point to Toolbars, and click Quick Launch. Now, you can click the shortcuts on this bar to access your favorite programs.

7. Search the Control Panel in Windows Vista
If you're having trouble locating the various options in the redesigned Control Panel, type what you're looking for in the Search box of the panel. For instance, if you want to change sounds, type 'sounds' in the Search box. The search results will display the required options for you.

8. Resize the Quick Launch Toolbar
If you want to see all the programs on the Quick Launch bar, right-click the taskbar (the horizontal bar at the bottom of the screen) and click 'Lock the taskbar' to uncheck it. You will now see some handle marks appear on the edges of the Quick Launch bar. Drag the handle on the right to adjust the size of this bar.

9. Add or remove programs on the Quick Launch Toolbar
To remove a program from the Quick Launch Toolbar, right-click the Toolbar, select the icon of the program, and click Delete. Select Yes when asked for confirmation. To add a program, click its icon in the Start menu or on the Desktop and drag it to the Quick Launch Toolbar.

10. Add a toolbar to the taskbar
You can add many toolbars to the taskbar at the bottom of your screen. Right-click an empty area of the taskbar and click Toolbars. Click the toolbar that you'd like to add. Click New Toolbar if you want to add a toolbar for a folder on your computer.
