It's joke time. Once again, for your pleasure and enjoyable reading; and no
offense to those who are "very serious" though ... please.
According to a cyber friend, JPL, he said: "We should develop the ability
in ourselves to see and laugh at the many funny things in life. Perhaps by
doing so, we will enjoy life better and be able to live it to the fullest."
HE SAW WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT
An architect, a contractor, and a building inspector were escorted
to a prison yard for execution by guillotine. They were sentenced to die
for the failure of a structure in a Middle East country which they designed
and built and which killed 1,500 people.
The contractor was brought up first to the guillotine. He was asked
if he wanted to position himself by looking at the blade as it falls on his
neck or by looking away from it. He opted to look away. As the executioner
lets the blade drop, the blade somehow got stuck and didn't go all the way.
Being thought of as an act of forgiveness by Allah, the contractor
was freed and allowed to go. The building inspector was next and she was
also asked if she wanted to face the blade or not. She also decided not to.
As the blade started to fall, somehow it got stuck again and she was
likewise freed and allowed to go.
When the architect's turn came, he was asked the same question but
he decided to watch the blade drop on his neck. He said, "What difference
does it make anyway?" Just as the executioner was about to let the blade
fall, the architect cried out loudly and said, "Wait, I see what is wrong
with your guillotine ... "
