Here's an article I got from an old old issue of 8 Days...
UN Survey
Last month, a survey was reportedly conducted by the UN worldwide. The only question asked was :
"Would you please give your most honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world."
The survey was a HUGE failure...
In South America, they did not know what "please" meant.
In Asia, they did not know what "honest" meant. (
)
In Eastern Europe, they did not know what "opinion" meant.
In the Middle East, they did not know what "solution" meant.
In Africa, they did not know what "food" meant.
In Western Europe, they did not know what "shortage" meant.
And in the USA, they did not know what "the rest of the world" meant.

here are the facts of life.
1. Save water. Shower with your girlfriend.
2. I was born intelligent, education ruined me.
3. How come "abbreviated" is such a long word?
4. "Work fascinates me." I can look at it for hours.
5. "Your future depends on your dreams." So go to sleep.
6. "Hard work never killed anybody." But why take the risk?
7. Never put of the work till tomorrow what you can put off today.
8. GOD made relatives. Thank GOD, we can choose our friends.
9. There should be a better way to start a day than waking up every morning.
10. Every man should get married. After all, happiness is not the only thing in life.
11. A dress is like a barbed fence. It protects the premises without restricting the view.
12. If it's true that we are here to help others, then, what exactly are the others here for?
13. Since light travels faster than sound, people appear bright until you hear them speak.
14. If your father is a poor man, it is your fate. But, if your father-in-law is a poor man, it is your stupidity.
15. The more you learn, the more you know. The more you know, the more you forget. The more you forget, the less you know. So ..... why learn? -
Catch no ball.
But got an idea it is sacarstic. -
