1. When I spend a little more time -- I am slow; When my boss spends a little ore time -- He is careful.
2. When I don't want to do something -- I am lazy; When my boss doesn't want to do something, he is too busy.
3. When I co-operate with the boss, I am flattering; When my boss pleases his head, he is co-operative.
4. When I speak in the meeting, I am wordy; When my boss speaks, he brings forward the great ideas.
5. When I insist in my way, I am stubborn; When my boss stick to his opinions, he has principles.
6. When I work hard, I am showing up; when my boss works hard, he is diligent.

1. A professor of chemistry wanted to teach his 5th grade class a lesson about the evils of liquor, so he produced an experiment that involved a glass of water, a glass of whiskey and two worms. "Now, class. Observe closely the worms," said the professor putting a worm first into the water. The worm in the water writhed about, happy as a worm in water could be. The second worm, he put into the whiskey. It writhed painfully, and quickly sank to the bottom, dead as a doornail. "Now, what lesson can we derive from this experiment?" the professor asked. Johnny, who naturally sits in back, raised his hand and wisely, responded, "Drink whiskey and you won't get worms."

2. An English professor wrote the words, "woman without her man is nothing" on the blackboard and directed the students to punctuate it correctly. The men wrote: "Woman, without her man, is nothing." The women wrote: "Woman! Without her, man is nothing."

3. After a quarrel, a husband said to his wife, "You know, I was a fool when I married you." She replied, "Yes, but I was in love and didn't notice."

After you and your boy friend broke up. You know he still loves you, and hopes you will change your mind. Therefore, when you feel lonely, you will go to see him. You already don't love him any more and even don't want to. You just feel so bored. However, he comes anytime you want. Is it very selfish?
Yes, it is very selfish and even shameless but this is a forgivable selfishness and shamelessness.
You have already got used to be with him. Although he has many shortcomings, but you are alone so you still kill the time with him. You know he may feels sad, but you will explain for yourself:"Doesn't he want to see me?" You even will say:"I just want to be a friend with him."
Whereas you know it so well that he doesn't think so at all. He still keeps hope. When you are willing to see him, he will think he may still have a chance. Once he gets your call, even he feels so bad, he will still run to you and stand by you. He begs to hold your hand again and thinks that you can go back to him again. At least, in this minute you won't leave him.
If you had given this one the deepest love, how can you treat him like this? Finally one day when he realizes it, he will hate you. If you can have a choice, do not end up a love by the hate.

Everyday a professor will tell his grandson a story before sleep. However, a story called "Three Hunters" made a problem for the professor.
This story is about three hunters went to hunt, but two of them didn't bring guns, one couldn't use a gun. They met three rabbits, two of them were shot but escaped, one wasn't shot but fell down. They took an escaped rabbit and went to a house that is without a door, roof, windows and walls. They called out the owner and asked:"We will cook an escaped rabbit, may I borrow your wok?" "I have three woks, two were broken and the left is without the bottom," the owner said. Three hunters were glad to hear that and said:"That's great. We will borrow the wok that is without the bottom." Then that used this wok to cook the escaped rabbit and had a good dinner.
The professor had thought about it for several days but couldn't understand the meaning of this story. Then he wrote to the magazine and pointed out that this story is completely illogical.
After that, the professor got a lot of replies from other readers. Of course all the letters agree with the professor. The professor was encouraged and then wrote several articles to criticise this issue.
One year later, a guess went to see the professor. Meanwhile the guess asked the professor:"Have you still remembered the story of Three Hunters? Can you understand it now?" The professor kept silent. Then the guess said:"The simplest truth is always hard to be realized. Three Hunters just lets the children to understand that the most possible things can become impossible and the most impossible things can become possible..."
