Anecdotes:

up 2010-07-05 two rabes,a hase, a fuchs and a jagar

This is from a friend in abroad.
I translated them to English.

Ein Rabe sitzt im Wald auf einem Ast. Kommt ein zweiter Rabe vorbei und

fragt: "Was machst du denn da?"

"Nix, ich sitz nur da und schau blod." "Klingt gut, das mach ich auch".

Und der zweite Rabe setzt sich neben den ersten auf den Ast.

Kurze Zeit spater kommt ein Hase daher und sieht die beiden Raben. "Was macht ihr denn da?"

"Nix, wir sitzen nur da und schauen blod." "Das will ich auch probieren,"

sagt der Hase und hockt sich unter den Ast.

Es dauert nicht lange, da kommt ein Fuchs des Weges. Er sieht den Hasen und die beiden Raben und fragt: "Was macht ihr denn da?" "Nix, wir sitzen nur da und schauen blod," erklart ihm der Hase.

"Aha," meint der Fuchs und gesellt sich zum Hasen.

So hocken alle vier da, machen nix und schauen blod, bis ein Jager vorbeikommt und den Fuchs und den Hasen erschiest.

"Siehst, was ich immer sag," meint der eine Rabe zum anderen, "nix tun und blod schauen geht nur in einer hoheren Position."

 

 

A raven sits in the forest on a branch. A second raven visited and ask: "What do you do then there?"

"Nothing, I only sit there and look stupidly."
"Sounds good, this also does I".

And the second raven sits down on the branch beside the first raven.

A hare comes along soon later and sees the two ravens. "What do you do then there?"

"Nothing, we only sit there and look stupidly."

"This also I wants to try," said the hare and squat under the branch.

It doesn't last long, there a fox comes.
He sees the hare and the two ravens and asks: "What do you do then there?" "Nothing, we only sit there and look stupidly", the hare explains him.

"Ah," the fox thinks and joins to the hare.

So all four crouch there, don't do anything and look stupidly, until a hunter visits and the fox and the hare were shot.

"What always says I", the one raven said to the other,
"nothing does and goes to look stupidly only one is in higher position."


up 2010-06-21 Logically generated--algebra

This is froma friend in abroad.
I translated them to English.

"Logically generated--algebra"

(page 1)
Human = eat + sleep + go to work + play
Pig = eat + sleep
Insert; human=pig = go to work +play
then human-play= pig + go to work
conclusion; human without play= pig who go to work

[page 2}
man = eat + sleep + get money
pig = eat + sleep
man = pig + get money
pig= man-get money
Therefore man without money = pig

(page 3)
woman = eat + sleep + spent money
pig = eat + sleep
Insert; woman = pig + spent Monet
Exchange; woman-spent money = pig
Conclusion; woman without spending money= pig

Big Conclusion-1
Man get money not to make woman become pig

Big Conclusion-2
Woman spent money not to make man become pig

Big Conclusion 3
Man + woman = pig --xx-get money-- + pig --xx-spent money--
= two pigs

Last;
If you are correct please smile.

If you are not yet (get--spent) money
You are becoming pig slowly


up 2010-06-11 Life is not need to become very rich

Life is not need to become very rich.

 

Happiness is incised for each people, and very beautiful thing has flows.

That always forbids me who reach to an extreme of society, and it come out and, the appearance flower is lost in freshness, but existed in oneself.

However, as for an old view, nothing is perfect.

As for people's life, each has lacked some things.  People exist with husband and wife, and income of million are not important.

Too much money will give descendent unhappiness.

up 2000-12-12 Rank of Moodys

In Japan, a joke is popular among financial@people.As you probably know, Japanese banking system is still in@bad shape caused by collapse of bubble economy around@year 1990. Two major banks are bankrupted because of huge@debt, and government poured tremendous money 100 billion@dollar to prevent chain bankrupting. Two major companies@are changed into new companies by law.
The other banks are also in no good shape, and merge of banks is a trend.
Recently, Mizuho -group was establish with Japan@Industrial Bank, Fuji Bank and Daiichi-Kangyo Bank.@Funding capital of 20 billion $@(http://www.mizuho-fg.co.jp), aiming to become one of@world five top bank.
They hold many people to count yen bill rapidly and@exactly.
Florida state requested three banks to participate ballots@counting of presidential election 110 people each.
Totally 330 people joined the recounting of ballot cards.@They finished recounting very rapidly, because they@ignored the appeals from Republicans and Democrats. They@couldn't understand English.
After the election, Moodys rank of Mizuho Financial Group@go upward from AA to AAA, because they showed the@excellent capability for labor intensive area.
This story was welcome by other financial group but not@Mizuho Group, who is offended a bit.

2000-12-01 Microsoft (from my friend)
For those of you who have had experience with computers and their glitches and@idiosyncrasies, and downright illogical workings, you'll appreciate the following:

At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly compared the computer industry with the auto industry and stated ?If GM had kept up with the technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving $25.00 cars that got 1,000 miles to the gallon.?

In response to Bill?s comments, General Motors issued a press release stating:

If GM had developed technology like Microsoft, we would all be driving cars with the following characteristics:

1. For no reason whatsoever, your car would crash twice a day.

2. Every time they repainted the lines in the road, you would have to buy a new car.

3. Occasionally your car would die on the motorway for no reason. You would have to pullover to the side of the road, close all of the windows, shut off the car, restart it, and reopen the windows before you could continue. For some reason you would simply accept this.

4. Occasionally, executing a manoeuvre such as a left turn would cause your car to shut down and refuse to restart, in which case you would have to reinstall the engine.

5. Only one person at a time could use the car unless you bought ?CarNT?, but then you would have to buy more seats.

6. Macintosh would make a car that was powered by the sun, was reliable, five times as fast and twice as easy to drive- but would run on only five percent of the roads.

7. The oil, water temperature, and alternator warning lights would all be replaced by a single ?General Protection Fault? warning light.

8. New seats would force everyone to have the same sized butt.

9. The airbag system would ask ?are you sure? before deploying.

10. Occasionally for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously lifted the door handle, turned the key and grabbed hold of the radio antenna.

11. GM would require all car buyers to also purchase a deluxe set of Rand McNally roadmaps (now a GM subsidiary), even though they neither need nor want them. Attempting to delete this option would immediately cause the car's performance to diminish by 50% or more. Moreover, GM would become a target for investigation by the Justice Dept.

12. Every time GM introduced a new car, car buyers would have to learn to drive all over again because none of the controls would operate in the same manner as the old car .

13. You'd have to press the ?Start? button to turn the engine off.

Up 2000-10-04 Meeting with Chairman Mao Tsu Tung (Kissinger and President Ford)

Former President Bush was a head of liaison office in Beijing. He met Chairman Mao two times at the visit of Henry Kissinger (1975.10.21) and President Gerald Ford (1975.12.2) as an aid.

When deligation of Dr. Kissinger entered Chairman Maofs study room, Mao (81 years old) stood up with help of two secretaries.

Kissinger asked him about health, and Mao answered, pointing his head, gThis works good and I can eat and sleeph. And next, patting a thigh, g This is not easy to use, and works terrible for standing up. Also, lungs have a diseaseh. He joked, g I am an exhibit for foreign visitorsh.

There were many medical equipment, such as syringes and an oxygen mask in the study. Mao said, gIn a moment, I will meet God. The invitation letter is on the wayh. Kissinger answered with a smile, gPlease donft receive ith. Then Mao write with pains a few words on paper, and a secretary of him read it, gI will obey the order of DOCTORh. gDoctorh indicated Dr. Kissinger and his abhor chief doctor.

After a month later on Dec. 2, 1975, President Ford met Chairman Mao. Mao said, gGodfs invitation letter to me is on the wayh. Ford couldnft understand the meaning of Maofs word, and with a smile he leave the study room, saying gI hope the invitation letter will arrive soonh. The relation between China and U.S. was deteriorated afterward.

Up 2000-09-18 Talk of Shinichiro TOMONAGA, Nobel laurete for physics in year 1965.

1. I have noticed that there are four type of answer for question, becoming president of university. First is "yes", second is "no", and the third is not "yes" and "no". The fourth answer is both "yes" and "no".

2. In Japan, it says when the wind blows, the cooper will make a profit. Wind make dust. Dust hurts eyes, and number of blinds person will increase. Number of Samisen (blinds use samisen) is increased, and cats are killed to make samisens. And then number of mouth is increased and wooden buckets are bitten. Subsequently job of cooper will be increased.
But cooper will lose money also. Wind blows, the copper will lose money. The winds will increase the number of fire. Water is needed to extinguish the fire, and buckets of copper will be taken away. Copper loses buckets.

3. A U.K. gentleman made a comment about character of Germany during Hitler's regime.
They are three natures, fidelity, intelligent, nazism in Germany, but only two natures exist in a person, not all three natures.
Fidelity and intelligent person will not becomes nazi.
Intelligent and nazi will not be a person of fidelity.
Fidelity and believer of nazi will not be intelligent person.

Up 2000-09-10 Heaven and Hell
A Brazilian died and was summoned to Heaven, which he found quite different from where he had spent his lifetime. Everything about Heaven was nice and clean -in fact, too nice and clean. The Brazilian quickly became bored stiff.
Determined to do something about his boredom, he walked to the edge of Heaven one day and looked straight down into Hell. Hell certainly looked different from where he was.
In one corner of Hell, he saw a man sitting on a comfortable sofa, watching the television and sipping a drink. A woman sat by his side.
So, the Brazilian told Saint Peter: "That man over there seems to be having one hell of a time. I must get down there for I am completely bored up here. Will you allow me to?"
With a grin, the saint replied: "By all means, if you insist. But just listen to me first. Mind you, the program he is watching is "Window on the Government," which as you undoubtedly know is the Brazilian government's publicity program. The woman he is with is the same old wife who's been with him 30 years -or longer. And the drink he is sipping is Brazilian-made whisky.
"Now, do you still wish to go?"
The Brazilian turned pale and muttered weakly:
"No, Saint Peter. Will you allow me to stay here?"

Five surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients to operate on.@The first surgeon says, "I like to see accountants on my operating@table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered."
The second responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside THEM is color coded!"
The third surgeon says, "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside them is in alphabetical order."
The fourth surgeon chimes in: "You know, I like contractors. Those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end and when the job takes longer than you said it would."
But the fifth surgeon shut them all up: "You're wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. They have no guts, no heart, no spine, and the head and ass are interchangeable."

(up 2000-07-25)
G8 summit meeting was held at Okinawa, southern part of Japan from last weekend, July 22, 23, 2000, and meeting itself was a great success.

Our Prime Minster greeted U.S. President Clinton on July 22, saying "who are you?" in stead of "How are you?", because Japanese are not good at speaking English, specially for powerful political people, who are too busy to learn English.

President Clinton, initially was embarrassed, and then answered that "I am a husband of Hilary" as a joke.

Then, Prime Minster Mori said "me too", because when typical Japanese has a problem to answer the question, easy reply is "me too" such as in case of ordering foods.
