A big old pudgy panda bear walked into McDonald's one day.
Ordered a Big Mac, fries and a Coke, and ate it all right away.
He paid his bill at the counter, then with a great big grin
He pulled out a big water pistol and shot the cashier in the chin.
He sauntered out to the sidewalk; the cashier followed him there.
Drying his face he said, "Why'd you do that? It wasn't really fair."
"In the encyclopedia, friend, the answer can be found."
The panda said, and then he left, saying, "Well, I'll see ya around."
The cashier looked it up that night. What he saw he couldn't believe.
The encyclopedia said, "Panda -- eats shoots and leaves."

25. Feeling after Completing Engineering:

Survived Engineering !!!!!!!!!!!
Who actually works for our country?
The population of our country is estimated as 100 crores.
50 crores are house wives that leaves 50 crore to work
20 crores are old age/retired. That leaves 30 crores to work.
There are 15 crores in school/college/universities, which leaves 15 crores to do the work.
There are 5 crores employed by the government, leaving 10 crores to do the work (as you know, govt. employees do not believe in working).
Total unemployed are 6 CRORES. That leaves 4 CRORE to do the work.
any given time there are 3 CRORES people in hospitals leaving behind 1 CRORE to do the work.
Presently there are 99,99,998 people in prison.
That leaves just two people to do the
You and
And currently you are sitting at your computer reading this.
So I am the only person in our country that is
That's why our country is surviving!!!
log out and do your job, I want to take some rest and do not want our country to suffer because of you
EK LADKI THI DEEWANI SI,
EK SUBJECT PE WO MARTI THI,
BOOKS UTHAKAR, CHASHMA LAGAKAR,
LIBRARY SE GUZARTI THI,
KUCHH PADNA THA SHAYAD USKO,
JAANE KIS SE DARTI THI,
JAB BHI MILTI THI MUJHSE,
MUJHSE POOCHHA KARTI THI,
YEH ENGINEERING KAISE HOTI HAI ?,

AUR MEIN BAS ITNA KEH PATA THA,
"KITABEN KHULI HON YA HON BAND,
PADHAI LAST NIGHT HI HOTI HAI,
KAISE KAHOON MAIN O YAARA YEH,
ENGINEERING AISE HOTI HAI""
TURU RU RU RU RU RU ROOOO ROOOOOO ROOOO !!


Once upon a midnight dreary,
Fingers cramped and vision bleary,
System manuals piled high
and wasted paper on the floor,
Longing for the warmth of bedsheets,
Still I sat here doing my files:
Having reached the bottom line,
I took a CD from the drawer.

Typing with a steady hand,
I then invoked the "save" command
But got instead a reprimand:
It read, "Abort, Retry, Ignore?"
Was this some occult illusion?
Some maniacal type intrusion?
These were choices Newton himself,
Had never faced before.

Carefully I weighed my options...
These three seemed to be the top ones.
Clearly I must now adopt one;
choose: Abort, Retry, Ignore?
With my fingers pale and trembling
Slowly toward the keyboard bending,
Longing for a happy ending,
Hoping all would be restored

Praying for some guarantee,
Finally I pressed a key.
But what on the screen did I see?
Again "Abort, Retry, Ignore?"
I tried to catch the chips off guard -
I pressed again, but twice as hard,
But luck was just not on the cards,
I saw what I had seen before.

Now I typed in desperation
Trying random combinations.
Still there came the incantation
"Abort, Retry, Ignore."
There I sat, distraught, exhausted,
By my own machine accosted
Getting up, I turned away
And paced across the room floor.

And then I saw an awful sight
A bold and blinding flash of light
A lightening bolt that cut the night
And shook me to my very core.
The PC screen collapsed and died.
"OH NO! MY DATABASE!" I cried.
I heard a distant voice reply,
"You'll see your files...nevermore!"

To this day I do not know
The place to which our data goes.
Perhaps it goes to heaven,
Where the angels have it stored.
But as for Productivity, well,
I fear this has gone straight to Hell.
And that's the tale I have to tell -
Your choice: Abort, Retry, Ignore.

My computer has a language
That is foreign to me
It speaks of RAM and Gigabytes
And what could ROM be!

I don't understand the Windows
My computer says are there
Nor the Gem Clip at the side of my page
With eyes that blink and stare!

I don't understand the cures
That maintenance wizards do
It's called defragmenter, scan disk,
And virus cleaning too!

Yet, computer and I work hand and eye
With a mouse to translate
The tasks that I want it to do
While it points out my mistakes!
