First of all - I am not sure where R U from. In our Asian tradition when you started reading this line here - you are already my guest and you should be served.
In the first place, I don't
know how you managed to find your way here. But then now that you are in my personal
website, I really have nothing to offer you like giving you a treat or something
like that. However, here is a borrowed inspiration from one of my earliest pal on
the Net whom we first got acquainted back in 1997. He sent me a real master piece
of joke which always make me smile whenever I am in a low set of mood. I thought
may be this could be something good to toast away your miserable day too ... by the
way, who was the genius who thought of this ???

I hope you like this one. There was a movie about this guy "Forrest Gump" acted by Tom Hanks, the charactor was sort of plain and thought about things much differently than most folks do. So there is a few jokes and etc. I hope you do not take offense at this, from you - now that I know the world outside is very different from ours and as I know your beliefs are a bit different than mine are, but thought you might get a chuckle out of it anyways.
The day finally arrived: Forest Gump dies and goes to Heaven. He is met at the Pearly Gates by Saint Peter himself. The gates are closed, however,and Forest approaches the gatekeeper.
Saint Peter says, "Well,
Forest, it's certainly good to see you. We have heard a lot about you. I must inform
you that the place is filling up fast, and we've been administering an entrance examination
for everyone. The tests are fairly short, but you need to pass before you can get
into Heaven." Forest responds, "It shore is good to be here Saint Peter.
I was looking forward to this. Nobody ever told me about any entrance exams. Shore
hope the test ain't too hard; life was a big enough test as it was." Saint Peter
goes on, "Yes, I know Forest. But, the test I have for you is only three questions.
Here
is the first: What days of the week begin with the letter 'T'? Second, how many seconds
are there in a year? Third, what is God's first name?"
Forest goes away to think the questions over. He returns the next day and goes up
to Saint Peter to try to answer the exam questions. Saint Peter waves him up and
asks, "Now that you have had a chance to think the questions over, tell me your
answers."
Forest says, "Well, the first one, - how many days of the week begin with the
letter 'T'? Shucks, that one's easy; that'd be Today and Tomorrow !" The saint's
eyes open wide and he exclaims, "Forest ! That's not what I was thinking, but
... you do have a point though, and I guess I didn't specify, so I give you credit
for that answer."
"How about the next one" says Saint Peter, "how many seconds in a year?" "Now that one's harder," says Forest. "But, I thunk and thunk about that, and I guess the only answer can be twelve." Astounded, Saint Peter says, "Twelve! Twelve! Forest, how in Heaven's name could you come up with twelve seconds in a year?" Forest says, "Shucks, there gotta be twelve: January second, February second, March second....." "Hold it," interrupts Saint Peter. "I see where you're going with it. And I guess I see your point, though that wasn't quite what I had in mind. I'll give you credit for that one too."
"Let's go on with the next and final question," says Saint Peter, "Can you tell me God's first name?" Forest says, "Well shore, I know God's first name. Everbody probly knows it. It's Howard."
"Howard?" asks Saint Peter. "What makes you think it's 'Howard'?" Forest answers, "It's in the prayer." "The prayer?" asks Saint Peter, "Which prayer?" "The Lord's Prayer," responds Forest: "Our Father, who art in heaven, Howard be thy name...."
By the way, I am not a Christian and I miss the joy of unerstanding his last answer. But the first two answers have kept me amuzed for the last 5 years, this must be a good huh ?
An oldie but a goodie ....NEXT
