Jokes Majaak / Globalization!!
« on: March 07, 2012, 02:18:26 AM »
Question:

What is the truest definition of Globalization?

Answer:

Tragically, Princess Diana’s death.

Question:

Why?

Answer:

An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel, driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whiskey,followed closely by Italian paparazzi on Japanese motorcycles;treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines.

This is sent to you by an American, using Bill Gate’s technology and you are probably reading this on your computer,

that uses Taiwanese chips and a Korean monitor, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant; transported by Indian lorry-drivers, hijacked by Indonesians, unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen and trucked to you by illegal Mexican workers…

And that is what Globalization is.

Knowledge / History of middle finger!!
« on: March 07, 2012, 02:11:45 AM »


Well now...here is something I never knew before, and now that I know it, I feel like sharing it with my more intelligent friends on PJ, in the hope they, too, will feel edified. Is not history more fun when you know something about it?

Before the battle of Agincourt in 1415, the French anticipating victory over the English, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers.
Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the draw the renowned English longbow and they would be incapable of fighting in future.

This famous English longbow was made of native English Yew tree, and the act of drawing the longbow was known as "Plucking the Yew" or "Pluck Yew".

Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and began mocking the French by waving the middle fingers at the defeated French saying " See, we can still Pluck Yew"!

Since " Pluck Yew" is difficult to say, the difficult consonant cluster at the beginning has gradually changed to a labiodentals fricative "F", and thus the words often used in conjunction with the one finger salute.

It is also because of the pleasant feathers on the arrows used with the longbow that the symbolic gesture is known as "giving the bird".  It is still an appropriate salute to the French today.

And yew thought yew knew every plucking thing. [/color][/size][/b]

Fun Time / H2O : Water is dangerous
« on: March 04, 2012, 09:27:54 PM »
A student at Eagle Rock Junior High won first prize at the Greater Idaho Falls Science Fair, April 26. He was attempting to show how conditioned we have become to alarmists practicing junk science and spreading fear of everything in our environment. In his project he urged people to sign a petition demanding strict control or total elimination of the chemical "dihydrogen monoxide."

And for plenty of good reasons, since:

1.    it can cause excessive sweating and vomiting
2.   it is a major component in acid rain
3.    it can cause severe burns in its gaseous state accidental inhalation can kill you
4.    it contributes to erosion
5.    it decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes
6.    it has been found in tumors of terminal cancer patients

He asked 50 people if they supported a ban of the chemical.

1.    Forty-three (43) said yes,
2.    six (6) were undecided,
3.    and only one (1) knew that the chemical was water.

The title of his prize winning project was, "How Gullible Are We?"

He feels the conclusion is obvious.

News Khabran / Speech-jamming Gun that silences people mid-sentence
« on: March 03, 2012, 09:28:28 PM »
Japanese researchers have invented a speech-jamming gadget that painlessly forces people into silence.

Kazutaka Kurihara of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, and Koji Tsukada of Ochanomizu University, developed a portable "SpeechJammer" gun that can silence people more than 30 meters away.

The device works by recording its target's speech then firing their words back at them with a 0.2-second delay, which affects the brain's cognitive processes and causes speakers to stutter before silencing them completely.

Describing the device in a research paper published Feb. 28 at arXiv.org, Kurihara and Tsukada wrote, "In general, human speech is jammed by giving back to the speakers their own utterances at a delay of a few hundred milliseconds. This effect can disturb people without any physical discomfort, and disappears immediately by stopping speaking."

They found that the device works better on people who were reading aloud than engaged in "spontaneous speech" and it cannot stop people making meaningless sounds, such as "ahhh," that are uttered over a long time period.

Kurihara and Tsukada suggested the speech-jamming gun could be used to hush noisy speakers in public libraries or to silence people in group discussions who interrupt other people's speeches.

"There are still many cases in which the negative aspects of speech become a barrier to the peaceful resolution of conflicts," the authors said.

A woman walked into the kitchen to find her husband stalking around with a fly swatter.

“What are you doing?” She asked.

“Hunting flies.”

“Oh. Killing any,” she asked.

“Yep, three males, two females,” he replied.

Intrigued, she asked, “How can you tell them apart?”

He responded, “Three were on a beer can, two were on the phone.”
