| 532184 | 2007-03-11 21:36:00 | A Florida senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette convertible out of the dealership . Taking off down the road, he accelerated to 60 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left . "Amazing!" he thought, so he turned onto the I-95 and took it up to 90 mph . A mile or so further on, he suddenly saw the highway patrol coming up behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring . "I can get away from him . No problem!" thought the elderly nutcase, and he took the Corvette up to 100 mph, then 110, then 120 mph! Then suddenly, he thought: "What on earth am I doing? I'm too old for this nonsense," so he pulled over to the side of the road and waited for the Trooper to catch up with him . Pulling in behind him, the Trooper walked up to the driver's side of the Corvette, looked at his watch and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes . Today is Friday . If you can give me a reason why you were speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go . " The man, looking very seriously at the Trooper, said, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a Florida State Trooper . I thought you were bringing her back!" "Have a good day, Sir," said the Trooper . ******************************************* The cop got out of his car and walked back to the vehicle he had just stopped . The kid who was stopped for speeding rolled down his window and waited for him to speak . "I've been waiting for you all day," the cop said . The kid replied, "Yeah, well I got here as fast as I could . " When the cop finally stopped laughing, he sent the kid on his way without a ticket . Thought for the Day; Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind . Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 532189 | 2007-03-12 00:57:00 | A Japanese company and an American company decided to have a canoe race on the Missouri River . Both teams practiced long and hard to reach their peak performance before the race . On the big day the Japanese won by a mile . Afterward, the American team was very discouraged and morally depressed . The American management decided the reason for the crushing defeat had to be found . A Management Team made up of senior management was formed to investigate and recommend appropriate action . Their conclusion was the Japanese had 8 people rowing and 1 person steering, while the American team had 8 people steering and one person rowing . So American management hired a consulting company and paid them an incredible amount of money . They advised that too many people were steering the boat, while not enough people were rowing . To prevent losing to the Japanese again next year, the American rowing team's management structure was totally reorganized to 4 steering supervisors, 3 area steering superintendents and 1 assistant superintendent steering manager . They also implemented a new performance system that would give the 1 person rowing the boat greater incentive to work harder . It was called the Rowing Team Quality First Program, with meetings, dinners and free pens for the rower . Even new paddles and medical benefit incentives were promised for a winner . It was said we must give the rower the empowerment and enrichments through this quality program . " The next year the Japanese won by two miles . Humiliated, the American management laid off the rower for poor performance, halted development of a new canoe, sold the paddles, and canceled all capital investments for new equipment . The money saved was distributed to the senior management as bonuses . |
