Posted by kathavarta on October 29, 2008

Laloo Prasad Yadav talks to his son.

Laloo: I want you to marry a girl of my choice
Son: “I want to choose my own bride”.
Laloo: “But the girl is Ambani’s daughter.”
Son: “Well, in that case…… Yes”

Next Laloo approaches Mukesh Ambani

Laloo: “I have a husband for your daughter.”
Ambani: “But my daughter is too young to marry.”
Laloo: “But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank.”
Ambani: “Ah, in that case…..Yes”

Finally Laloo goes to see the president of the World Bank.

Laloo: “I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president.”
President: “But I already have more vice-presidents than I need.”
Laloo: “But this young man is Ambani’s son-in-law.”
President: “Ah, in that case…….Yes.”

This is how business is done!!!

Scientific Capability

Posted by kathavarta on October 29, 2008

So once three scientists American, Japanese, and Pakistani are discussing their nation’s scientific capability.

The American says, “In our country there was this boy who lost his legs in an accident, and we put artificial ones, and today u know he’s an Olympic gold medalist!”

So the Japanese laughs and says, “This is nothing. In our nation there was this boy who lost his hands and legs in accident and we put artificial ones, and today u know, he’s karate champion!”

Now the Pakistani laughs and says, “These are nothing, in our nation there was this boy who had no brains, and so we put a coconut in his head, and today u know…… he is the ‘Military ruler of Pakistan!”

The Father and his Sons

Posted by kathavarta on October 29, 2008

A Father had a family of sons who were perpetually quarreling among themselves.

When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks.

When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces.

They tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it.

He next opened the faggot, took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into his sons’ hands, upon which they broke them easily.

He then addressed them in these words: “My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks.”

Moral:
United we stand, divided we fall.

The Father and his two Daughters

Posted by kathavarta on October 29, 2008

A Man had two daughters, the one married to a gardener, and the other to a tile-maker.

After a time he went to the daughter who had married the gardener, and inquired how she was and how all things went with her.

She said, “All things are prospering with me, and I have only one wish, that there may be a heavy fall of rain, in order that the plants may be well watered.”

Not long after, he went to the daughter who had married the tilemaker, and likewise inquired of her how she fared; she replied, “I want for nothing, and have only one wish, that the dry weather may continue, and the sun shine hot and bright, so that the bricks might be dried.”

He said to her, “If your sister wishes for rain, and you for dry weather, with which of the two am I to join my wishes?”

Moral:
You can’t please everybody.
