Business one-liners:If you see a man approaching you with the obvious intent of doing you good, you should run for your life.If you see that there are four possible ways in which a procedure can go wrong, and circumvent these, then a fifth way, unprepared for, promptly develops.If you stand in one place long enough, you make a line.If you step out of a short line for a second, it becomes a long line.If you think that OSHA is a small town in Wisconsin, you're in trouble.If you think the problem is bad now, just wait until we've solved it.If you throw something away, you will need it the next day.If you try to please everybody, nobody will like it.If you understand it, it is obsolete.If you want to be well liked, never lie about yourself, and be careful when telling the truth about others.It works better if you plug it in.If you want to get along, go along.If you want to make an enemy, do someone a favor.If your next pot of chili tastes better, it probably is because of something left out, rather than added.Ignorance is bliss. No wonder I'm so depressed.Illegitimus non Carborundem: "Don't let the scum bags grind you down"In a hierarchical organization, the higher the level, the greater the confusion.In any calculation, any error which can creep in will do so.In any hierarchy, each individual rises to his own level of incompetence, and then remains there.In any household, junk accumulates to the the space available for its storage.In case of doubt, make it sound convincing.It takes a big man to admit when he's wrong, and an even bigger one to keep his mouth shut when he's right.

A photographer, who was also a confirmed atheist, decided to go into the woods to get photos of the fall foliage.It was a beautiful day....fall colors, birds chirping, babbling brook, and a gentle breeze rustling the leaves.While snapping shots, the atheist heard a noise behind him, and whirled around to see a huge bear coming through the bushes. He dropped his camera and ran. And kept running....... and looking behind him, he noticed the bear was gaining on him. He was so scared that tears came to his eyes. He ran faster, but the bear was closing in on him. He ran faster yet, and tripped over a root. Rolling over onto his back, the atheist saw the bear rise to his full height and raise a huge paw...... and the atheist cried out, "Oh, God, no!"And everything stopped. The birds stopped chirping. The brook stopped babbling. The gentle breeze stopped. And the bear froze with his paw in the air. And the atheist heard a booming voice say, "Young man. For years you doubted my very existence, but now that your life is in peril you call my name to help you. Why should I do so?"And the atheist thought for a moment, and said, "Yes, you are right. If you are God, then it would be hypocritical of me to become a Christian at this point in my life. But, do you think that you could at least make the bear a Christian for today?" And the booming voice was quiet for a moment and then said, "Done."And everything started again. The birds chirping, brook babbling, and gentle breeze rustling the leaves. And the bear slowly lowered his paw.And the bear put his paws together, and bowed his massive head and said, "Dear Lord, please bless this food we are about to eat."

Today I was in a shoe store that sells only shoes, nothing else. A young girl with a tattoo and green hair walked over to me and asked, "What brings you in today? I looked at her and said, "I'm interested in buying a refrigerator." She didn't quite know how to respond, had that deer in the headlights look.
I was thinking about old age and decided that old age is when you still have something on the ball, but you are just too tired to bounce it.
When people see a cat's litter box they always say, "Oh, have you got a cat?" I just say, "No, it's for company!"
Employment application blanks always ask who is to be called in case of an emergency. I think you should write, "An ambulance."
The older you get the tougher it is to lose weight because by then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends.
The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.
Have you ever noticed: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are XL.
The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he knows when he's really in trouble.
Did you ever notice that when you put the 2 words "The" and "IRS" together it spells "Theirs?"
Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.
Some people try to turn back their "odometers." Not me.
I want people to know why I look this way.
I've traveled a long way and a lot of the roads were not paved.
You know you are getting old when everything either dries up, sags or leaks.
Ah! Being young is beautiful but being old is comfortable.
Lord, keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth. -

A mother and her young son were flying Southwest Airlines from Kansas City to Chicago.
The son turned from the window to his mother and asked, "If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?"
The mother said, "Well, maybe that's something you could ask the stewardess."
So the boy asked the stewardess, "If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?"
The stewardess responded, "Did your mother tell you to ask me?"
The boy admitted that this was the case.
"Well, then, tell your mother that there are no baby planes because Southwest always pulls out on time. You can ask your mother to explain it to you." -

GOLF:In primitive society, when native tribes beat the ground with clubs and yelled, it was called witchcraft; today, in civilized society, it is called golf.Golf is an expensive way of playing marbles.The secret of good golf is to hit the ball hard, straight and not too often.There are three ways to improve your golf game: take lessons, practice constantly -- or start cheating.An amateur golfer is one who addresses the ball twice - once before swinging, and once again, after swinging.Many a golfer prefers a golf cart to a caddy because it cannot count, criticize or laugh.Golf is a game in which the slowest people in the world are those in front of you, and the fastest are those behind.There's no game like golf: you go out with three friends, play eighteen holes, and return with three enemies.Golf got its name because all of the other four letter words were taken.

What Gender is A Computer?:A Spanish teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.''House'' for instance, is feminine: ''la casa.''''Pencil,'' however, is masculine: "el lapiz.''A student asked, ''What gender is 'computer'?''Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether ''computer'' should be a masculine or a feminine noun.Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.The men's group decided that ''computer'' should definitely be of the feminine gender (''la computadora''), because:1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval4. 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 (''el computador''), because:1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.The women won!!!

A new manager spends a week at his new office with the manager he is replacing. On the last day the departing manager tells him, "I have left three numbered envelopes in the desk drawer. Open an envelope if you encounter a crisis you can't solve."Three months down the track there is major drama, everything goes wrong - the usual stuff - and the manager feels very threatened by it all.He remembers the parting words of his predecessor and opens the first envelope. The message inside says "Blame your predecessor!" He does this and gets off the hook.About half a year later, the company is experiencing a dip in sales, combined with serious product problems. The manager quickly opens the second envelope. The message read, "Reorganize!" This he does, and the company quickly rebounds.Three months later, at his next crisis, he opens the third envelope. The message inside says "Prepare three envelopes"

The only way to pull off a Sunday afternoon quickie with their 8-year-old son in the apartment was to send him out on the balcony with a popsicle and tell him to report on all the neighborhood activities. He began his commentary as his parents put their plan into operation.
"There's a car being towed from the parking lot," he shouted. A few moments passed.
"An ambulance just drove by."
A few moments later, "Looks like the Anderson's have company," he called out. "Matt's riding a new bike."
A few moments later, "Looks like the Sanders are moving." "Jason is on his skate board."
A few more moments, "The Coopers are having sex."
Startled, his mother and dad shot up in bed. Dad cautiously called out, "How do you know they are having sex?"
"Jimmy Cooper is standing on his balcony with a popsicle too." -
Martha Stewart's Way Vs. My Way:Martha's way #1:Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.My way:Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for pete's sake, you are probably laying on the couch with your feet up eating it anyway. You know we don't have anything better to do.Martha's way #2:Use a meat baster to "squeeze" your pancake batter onto the hot griddle and you'll get perfectly shaped pancakes every time.My way:Buy the precooked kind you nuke in the microwave for 30 seconds. The hard part is getting them out of the plastic bag.Martha's way #3:To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.My way:Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix and keep it in the pantry for up to a year.Martha's way #4:To prevent egg shells from cracking, add a pinch of salt to the water before hard boiling.My way:Who cares if they crack, aren't you going to take the shells off anyway?Martha's way #5:To get the most juice out of fresh lemons, bring them to room temperature and roll them under your palm against the kitchen counter before squeezing.My way:Sleep with the lemons in between the mattress and box springs.Martha's way #6:To easily remove burnt-on food from your skillet,simply add a drop or two of dish soap and enough water to cover bottom of pan, and bring to a boil on stovetop.My way:Eat at Denny's every night and avoid cooking.Martha's way #7:Spray your Tupperware with nonstick cooking spray before pouring in tomato based sauces and there won't be any stains.My way:Feed your garbage disposal and there won't be any leftovers.Martha's way #8:When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the outside of the cake.My way:Go to the bakery. They'll even decorate it for you.Martha's way #9:If you accidentally over salt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant "fix me up"My way:If you over salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too darn bad.My motto:I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes.Martha's way #10:Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.My way:Celery? Never heard of the stuff.Martha's way #11:Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish.My way:The Mrs. Smith frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the crust and so I just won't do it.Martha's way #12:Place a slice of apple in hardened brown sugar to soften it.My Way:Brown sugar is supposed to be "soft"?Martha's way #13:When boiling corn on the cob, add a pinch of sugar to help bring out the corn's natural sweetness.My Way:The only kind of corn I buy comes in a can.Martha's way #14:To determine whether an egg is fresh, immerse it in a pan of cool, salted water. If it sinks, it is fresh, but if it rises to the surface, throw it away.My way:Eat, cook, or use the egg anyway. If you feel bad later, you will know it wasn't fresh.Martha's way #15:Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.My way:Martha, dear, the only reason this works is because you can't rub a lime on your forehead without getting lime juice in your eye, and then the problem isn't the headache anymore, it is because you are now blind.Martha's way #16:Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.My way:Who has left over wine? Never happens in this house.Martha's way #17:If you have a problem opening jars: Try using latex dish washing gloves. They give a non slip grip that makes opening jars easy.My way:Go ask the very cute neighbor to do it.Martha's way #18:Potatoes will take food stains off your fingers. Just slice and rub raw potato on the stains and rinse with water.My way:Mashed potatoes will now be replacing the anti-bacterial soap in the handy dispenser next to my sink.Martha's way #19:Now look what you can do with Alka Seltzer. Clean a toilet. Drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets, wait twenty minutes, brush and flush. The citric acid and effervescent action clean vitreous China. Clean a vase. To remove a stain from the bottom of a glass vase or cruet, fill with water and drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets. Polish jewelry. Drop two Alka-Seltzer tablets into a glass of water and immerse the jewelry for two minutes. Clean a thermos bottle. Fill the bottle with water, drop in four Alka-Seltzer tablets, and let soak for an hour (or longer, if necessary).My way:Put your jewelry, vases, and thermos in the toilet. Add some Alka-Seltzer and you have solved a whole bunch of problems at once.

NOAH TODAY:In the year 2014, the Lord came unto Noah, who was now living in Somerset and said: "Once again, the earth has become evil and I see the end of all flesh before me. Build another Ark and save 2 of every living thing along with a few good humans."He gave Noah the blueprints, saying: "You have 6 months to build the Ark before I will start the unending rain for 40 days and 40 nights."Six months later, the Lord looked down and saw Noah weeping in his yard - but no Ark. "Noah!" He roared, "I'm about to start the rain! Where is the Ark?""Forgive me, Lord," begged Noah, "but things have changed.""I needed a Building Permit.""I've been arguing with the Boat Inspector about the need for a sprinkler system.""My neighbors claim that I've violated the Neighborhood By-Laws by building the Ark in my back garden and exceeding the height limitations. We had to go to the Local Planning Committee for a decision.""Then the Local Council and the Electric Company demanded a boat load of money for the future costs of moving power lines and other overhead obstructions, to clear the passage for the Ark's move to the sea. I told them that the sea would be coming to us, but they would hear nothing of it.""Getting the wood was another problem. There's a ban on cutting local trees in order to save the Greater Spotted Barn Owl. I tried to convince the environmentalists that I needed the wood to save the owls - but no go!""When I started gathering the animals the RSPCA took me to court. They insisted that I was confining wild animals against their will. They argued the accommodations were too restrictive, and it was cruel and inhumane to put so many animals in a confined space.""Then the Environmental Protection Agency ruled that I couldn't build the Ark until they'd conducted an environmental impact study on your proposed flood.""I'm still trying to resolve a complaint with the Human Rights Commission on how many minorities I'm supposed to hire for my building crew.""Immigration is checking the Visa status of most of the people who want to work.""The Trades Unions say I can't use my sons. They insist I have to hire only Union workers with ark-building experience.""To make matters worse, the Internal Revenue Service seized all my assets, claiming I'm trying to leave the country illegally with endangered species.""So, forgive me, Lord, but it would take at least 10 years for me to finish this Ark.""Suddenly the skies cleared, the sun began to shine, and a rainbow stretched across the sky.Noah looked up in wonder and asked, "You mean you're not going to destroy the world?""No," said the Lord. " The Government beat me to it”.

An older gent had an appointment to see a urologist who shared an office with several other doctors. The waiting room was filled with patients.
He approached the receptionist desk. The receptionist was a large imposing woman who looked like a wrestler. He gave her his name.
In a very load voice the receptionist said, "Yes, I see your name here... you want to see the doctor about impotence, right?"
The heads of all the patients in the waiting room snapped around, to look at the very embarrassed man.
He recovered quickly though, and in an equally loud voice replied, "No, I've come to inquire about a sex change operation... and I'd like the same doctor that did yours!"

Morty and Saul, are out one afternoon on a lake when their boat starts sinking.
Saul the banker says to Morty, "So listen, Morty, you know I don't swim so well."
Morty remembered how to carry another swimmer from his lifeguard class when he was just a kid. So Morty is begins tugging Saul toward shore.
After twenty minutes, he begins to tire.
Finally about 50 feet from shore, Morty asks Saul, "So Saul, do you suppose you could float alone?"
Saul replies, "Morty, this is a heck of a time to be asking for money!"
