Women always win :)
SPANISH Teacher was explaining to her classthat in Spanish, unlike English,nouns are designated as eithermasculine 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 decidefor themselves whether "computer"should bea masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was askedto give four reasonsfor its recommendation.
The men's group decided that"computer" should definitely beof the feminine gender("la computadora"),because: 1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;2. The native languagethey use to communicatewith other computers isincomprehensible to everyone else; 3. Even the smallest mistakesare stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and4. As soon as you makea commitment to one,you find yourself spendinghalf your paycheckon accessories for it. (THIS GET S BETTER!)
The women's group,however, concludedthat computers should be Masculine("el computador"),because: 1. In order to do anythingwith them,you have to turn them on;2. They have a lot of databut still can't think for themselves; 3. They are supposedto help you solve problems,but half the timethey ARE the problem; and4. As soon as you commit to one,you realize that if youhad waited a little longer,you could have gotten a better model.The women won.

For all the married couple
A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had kept no secrets from each other except that the little old woman had a shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never to open or ask her about.
For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but one day the little old woman got very sick and the doctor said she would not recover. In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took down the shoe box and took it to his wife's bedside. She agreed that it was time that he should know what was in the box. When he opened it, he found two crocheted dolls and a stack of money totaling $95,000. He asked her about the contents. "When we were to be married," she said, " my grandmother told me the secret of a happy marriage was to never argue. She told me that if I ever got angry with you, I should just keep quiet and crochet a doll."
The little old man was so moved; he had to fight back tears. Only two precious dolls were in the box. She had only been angry with him two times in all those years of living and loving. He almost burst with happiness. "Honey," he said, "that explains the doll, but what about all of this money? Where did it come from?"
"Oh," she said, "that's the money I made from selling the dolls."
A. Prayer...... . Dear Lord, I pray for Wisdom to understand my man; Love to forgive him; And Patience for his moods; Because Lord, if I pray for Strength, I'll beat him to death, because I don't know how to crochet.

Touching Story
One day a man punished his young daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he was furious when the child tried to decorate a box.
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy." He was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the box was empty. He yelled at her, "Don't you know when you give someone a present, there's supposed to be something inside it?”
His daughter looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, "Oh, Daddy, it's not empty, I blew kisses into the box. All for you, Daddy."
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her forgiveness.
An accident took the life of the child only a short time later and it is told that the man kept that gold box by his bed for many years, and whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
In a very real sense, each of us has been given a gold container filled with unconditional love - love and kisses from our children, our friends, our family and from God - despite how we have behaved toward them.
What must we do in order to truly express our response to such gifts?

Hilarious
An Indian guy named "Anantharaman Subbaraman" arrived at the New York airport and ended up waiting for his visa for about 2 hours for the authorities to call his name. He got fed up and went to them and asked why they haven't called his name yet.They said that they have been calling him for the last 2 hours as "Anotherman Superman".
--- I am glad my name being VIDHYASHREE ANANTHANARAYANAN, no american dares to try to tell my name. They would go like Ana and i know they are calling me out and so look at them while they are staring at me, knowing for sure, noone but me can have such a crapiest name.

Music played at work?
I love music, but definitely no loud music when I am working. I don’t mind people listening to music at work. Each one has their own pace and if music helps you to be more productive, then yes listen to it while working – but with head phones. Right now, I share my office with 2 more co-workers. And yes, I am totally tired of listening to the music they play loud while I am getting my work done here. Sad part is we are all professionals. So respect professionalism. Know others before you do things. I can understand people playing music loud in their own offices, but not when you share your office space. I need someone like Gandhi (coz I lack patience) to deal and change these people. Is there anyone who has to deal with such things at work?

My first white hair
Such a horrible day today as I spotted my first grey hair. I immediately googled just to find out that I have less than 1oyrs for my entire hair to turn grey. I have never dyed my hair so far but I do know I cant take the sight of having half black and half grey hair (May be it could be coz of my mom who never paid importance to her looks). She tells me grey hair makes her gain respect from youngsters who immdly stand up to offer her a seat in the bus (Chennai busses are packed and she feels running and winning a marathon with the seat offered = prize won). I dont have such a reason to feel proud of this grey hair. I know one thing for sure - from now on I will never stand before the mirror. I am glad, my husband got his first one few months back :) --So i will never be teased at home :D
