One politician, One thief & One Programmer died & went straight
to hell.
Politician said "I miss my country, I want to call
my country and see how everybody is doing there.
She called and talked for about 5 minutes, then she asked
"Well, devil how much do I owe you????
The devil says "Five million dollars"
The Politician wrote him a cheque and went to sit back on her chair.

Thief was soo jealous, he starts screaming, "My turn! I wanna
call the my group members, I want to see how everybody is doing there too"
He called and talked for about 2 minutes, then he asked "Well, devil how much do I owe you????

The devil says "Ten million dollars"

With a smug look on his face, he made a cheque and went to sit
back on his chair.

Programmer was even more jealous & starts screaming, "I want to call other IT person too,
He called other IT person and he talked for twenty hours about various technologies and Project Managers, he talked & talked & talked, then he asked "Well, devil how much do I owe you????
The devil says "Twenty dollars".
Programmer is stunned & says "Twenty dollars??? Only ??"
The devil says "Well if you make a call from one hell
to another hell, it's local".

Saddam Hussein was sitting in his office wondering
whom to invade next when his telephone rang.

"Hallo, Mr. Hussein!" a heavily accented voice said,
"This is Gurmukh from Phagwara, District Kapurthala. I am ringing to
inform you that we are officially declaring the war on you!"

"Well, Gurmukh," Saddam replied, "This is indeed
important news!

How big is your army"

"Right now," said Gurmukh, after a moment's
calculation, "there is myself, my cousin Sukhdev, my next door neighbour Bhagat, and the entire kabaddi team from the gurudwara. That makes eight"

Saddam paused. "I must tell you, Gurmukh that I have
one million men in my army waiting to move on my command."

"Arrey O! Main kya.. " said Gurmukh. "I'll have to ring you back!"

Sure enough, the next day, Gurmukh called again.
"Mr. Hussein, it is Gurmukh, I'm call ing from Phagwara STD, the war is still on! We have managed to acquire some infantry equipment!"

"And what equipment would that be, Gurmukh" Saddam
asked.

"Well, we have two combines, a donkey and Amrik's
tractor."

Saddam sighed. "I must tell you, Gurmukh, that I have 16,000 tanks and 14,000 armoured personnel carriers. Also, I've increased my army to 1-1/2 million since we last spoke."

"Oh teri ....." said Gurmukh. "I'll have to get back to you."

Sure enough, Gurmukh rang again the next day.



"Mr. Hussein, the war is still on! We have managed to get ourselves
airborne...... We've modified Amrik's tractor by adding a couple of shotguns, sticking on some wings and the pind's
generator. Four school pass boys from Malpur have joined us as well!"


Saddam was silent for a minute and then cleared his
throat. "I must tell you, Gurmukh, that I have 10,000 bombers and
20,000 fighter planes.My military complex is surro unded by
laser-guided, surface-to-air missile sites. And since we last spoke, I've increased my army to TWO MILLION!"

"Tera pala hove...." said Gurmuk, "I'll have to ring you back."

Sure enough, Gurmukh called again the next day.
"Kiddan, Mr. Hussein! I am sorry to tell you that we have had to
call off the war."

"I'm sorry to hear that," said Saddam. "Why the sudden change of heart"

"Well," said Gurmukh, "we've all had a long chat over
a couple of lassi's, and decided there's no way we can feed two
million prisoners of war"

After having their 11th child, Laloo & Rabri decided that was enough. So then Laloo went to his doctor and told him that he and his wife did not want any more children.
The doctor told him that there was a procedure called a vasectomy that could fix the problem. Laloo and Rabri were against vasectomy and wanted some other alternative. The doctor instructed him to go home, get a Diwali bomb, light it, put it in a empty Coke can, then hold the can up to his ear and count to 10. Laloo said to the doctor, 'I'm the smartest man in Bihar, but I don't see how putting a Diwali atom bomb in a Coke can next to my ear is going to help me with my problem.'
So the couple drove to Delhi to get a second opinion.
The Delhi physician was just about to tell them about the procedure for a vasectomy when he noticed by their Medical records that they were from Bihar and would not accept vasectomy. This doctor also told Laloo to go home and get a Diwali atom bomb, light it, place it in a Coke can and hold it to his ear and count to 10.

Figuring that both learned physicians knew what they were talking about and couldn't be wrong, Laloo went home, lit an atom bomb, put it in a coke can. He held it up to his ear and began to count with his fingers on his left hand : '1,2,3, 4,5' At which point he paused, placed the coke can between his legs and resumed counting on the other hand...

Lol Samurai..
A similar situation happened in a malayalam movie.. The bad guy was supposed to throw a bomb at the count of 10.. He lit it up and after counting 5, put it between his legs and counted the rest on his other hand..
Nice one....

Default one more to the gr8 microsoft

In Japan, they have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful Microsoft

error messages with Haiku poetry messages. Haiku poetry has strict

construction rules -- each poem has only 17 syllables; 5 syllables in

the first line, 7 in the second, 5 in the third. They are used to

communicate a timeless message, often achieving wistful, yearning and

powerful insight through extreme brevity.

Here are 13 error messages from Japan:



-------------------------------------------

The Web site you seek

Cannot be located, but

Countless more exist.

--------------------------------------------

Chaos reigns within.

Reflect, repent, and reboot.

Order shall return.

--------------------------------------------

Program aborting.

Close all that you have worked on.

You ask far too much.

--------------------------------------------

Windows NT has crashed.

I am the Blue Screen of Death.

No one hears your screams.

------------------------------------------

Yesterday it worked.

Today it is not working.

Windows is like that.

--------------------------------------------

Your file was so big.

It might have been very useful,

But now it is gone.

----------------------------------------

Stay the patient course.

Of little worth is your ire.

The network is down.

--------------------------------------------

A crash reduces

Your expensive computer

To a simple stone.

--------------------------------------------

Three things are certain:

Death, taxes and lost data.

Guess which has occurred.

--------------------------------------------

You step in the stream,

But the water has moved on.

The page is not here.

--------------------------------------------

Out of memory.

We wish to hold the whole sky,

But we never will.

--------------------------------------------

Having been erased,

The document you're seeking

Must now be retyped.

---------------------------------------

Serious error.

All shortcuts have disappeared.

Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

which malayalam movie vinsanity??? i've seen quite a few with the same incidents happenin...

anyways here's my one-liner (well, actually two)

a husband says, "my wife and i were very happy for 20 years" his buddy asks," and then?"
the husband replies, "and then, we met!!"

it's not true that married men live shorter- it's just that they are a lot more willing to die.....

it's not true that marriages last forever..it only seems that long....

pathans are very simple guys, and so are sardars, so here's an ode to them..

a pathan walks up to his wife, with his hand held to his neck, bleeding. the wife asks" o god, what happened?" the pathan says," begum, while coming back from the market, the seat that i sat on on the bus, had a nail on the pillar, and it poked me thorughout the distance". the wife, nursing the wound, asks," why didn't you ask somebody to change seats with you?" the pathan replies," whom would i have asked? the entire bus was empty....!!!!"

a relative comes to visit a sardar, and after some chitchatting, they decide to go out for the evening. the sardar opens the door, and sees a banana peel lying on the steps before him. seeing this, he exclaims," ya rabba, aaj fir girna paiga !!!!" (o god, i'll have to fall again today?!!!) .

a guy comes running into santa singh's office on the 22nd floor and shouts "santa,santa, your wife and daughter just died in an accident!! a truck rammed into her car while she was driving!!" hearing this, santa jumps out of the window, to kill himself out of sheer distress, crying, "o god, o god". on reaching the 18th floor, he remembers that he doesn't have a car.on reaching the 12th floor, he remembers that he doesn't have a wife or daughter. just before hitting the ground, he remembers that his name isn't santa, but banta!!!

So, this pirate walks into the bar with a wooden leg, a hoook on his hand, a parrot on his shoulder, and a steering wheel on his pants. The bartender gives him a long, hard look, and then says,"Mate, you've got a steering wheel on your pants!!" The pirate replies,"Arrr! I know - its drivin' me nuts!!"



Cheers!!

A sardarji goes for a job interview in an office. The interviewer starts with the basics. "So, Mr., can you tell us your age, please?"
The sardarji counts carefully on his fingers for half a minute before replying. "Um ... 22."
The interviewer tries another straightforward one to break the ice. "And can you tell us your height, please?"
The sardarji stands up and produces a measuring tape from his handbag.
He then traps one end under his foot and extends the tape to the top of his head.
He checks the measurement and announces, "Five foot two!"
This isn't looking good so the interviewer goes for the real basics; something the he won't have to count, measure, or lookup.
"Just to confirm for our records, your name please?"
The sardarji bobs his head from side to side for about fifteen seconds, mouthing something silently to himself, before replying, "Gurpreet"
The interviewer is completely baffled at this stage, so he asks, "What were you doing when I asked you your name?"
"Oh, that!" replies the sardarji," I was just running through that song, "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you...Happy Birthday dear Gurpreet...happy birthday to you..."

Default ganguly anyone???

- Best Seller by Ganguly: Back to the Pavillion in 2 minutes

- Shoiab Akhtar admits Ganguly is faster and quicker than him. "I haven't seen any one get out so fast. Man, I envy his speed. I am quick but he is quickest.", he says. "I think I should now cut my run up short when I bowl to him. Or else, he might be gone when I am half way thru my run up."

- Narain Karthikeyan to get some tips on Speed from Ganguly. His sponsorers have asked him to talk to the Prince of Kolkotta. They are also planning to endorse Ganguly.

- Dinesh Karthick confesses that his skills in getting ready and padded have improved a lot. As soon as Ganguly goes to bat, I know there is very little time in getting ready. "I must have broken world records a few times in this series" , says the Indian dimunitive wicketkeeper.

- Q: Any Guesses which is Ganguly's favorite movie?
A:Gone in 60 seconds.

- Railways keen on Ganguly: Atleast we'll be having someone who comes (back) before time. This will help them improve the image with the Indian public.

- Q: Which was the hottest place in B'lore Chinnaswami Stadium for the past few days?
A: The seat Ganguly was sitting in while in the Pavillion.

- Ganguly to donate all his bats to charity. "I don't require a bat nowadays", said the Indian southpaw.
