Today's Sunday..was pretty boring...yawn...had to go for sum youth meetings and then was lazying arnd for the whole day...well i'm too lazy to write anything today. just gonna copy paste sum stories.dunno if they are true but then good for reading.
---------------------------------------------------
The air hostess, as she passed along the aisle of the plane on the transatlantic flight from Amsterdam to New York, she noticed that the baby, nestled between the couple who were asleep, didn't look very well, in fact it looked extremely ill. Not wanting to disturb anyone she gently lifted up the baby and took it back to her station. Feeling the baby's forehead, she found it was coldand with a sudden panic she realized that the infant was dead. Calling upon a doctor she knew to be on board, he examined the baby and confirmed that, not only was it dead, but it was embalmed. The child's body had been hollowed out and it was full of the drugs that the couple were trying to smuggle into the States.
---------------------------------------------------
A young lady is alone in her apartment. She goes to bed with her dog on the floor beside her. In the middle of the night, she is woken up by a strange sound. She is alarmed, but reaches down to the dog, who licks her hand.She is reassured and goes back to sleep. In the morning, she finds the dog hungin the shower. Where the dog slept, she picks up a note which reads 'Humans can lick too,"
---------------------------------------------------
A woman living in the city {Salt Lake} was visiting some friends in Ogden. When she got into her car in front of this friend's house, she noticed that a car started up right behind her car. It was about 2:00 in the morning, and there weren't any other cars on the road. After she had driven to the highway, she began to think that this car was following her. Some of the time he would drive up real close to her car, but he wouldn't ever pass. She was really scared to death and kept speeding to try to get away from him. When she got to Salt Lake, she started running stop lights to get away from him, but he would run right through them too. So when she got to her driveway she pulled in really fast, and this guy pulled in right behind her. She just laid on the horn, and her husband came running out. Just then,the guy jumped out of the car, and her husband ran over and said, 'What the hell's going' on here?" So he grabbed the guy, and his wife said, "This man's followed me all the way from Ogden." The man said, 'I followed your wife because I was going to work, and as I got into my car, I noticed when I turned my lights on, a man's head bob down in her back seat." So the husband went over to her back-seat, opened the door, and there was a deranged man sitting on the floor with a knife in his hand.
---------------------------------------------------
In Berlin, after World War II, money was short, supplies were tight, and it seemed like everyone was hungry. At that time, people were telling the tale of a young woman who saw a blind man picking his way through a crowd.The two started to talk. The man asked her for a favor: could she deliver the letter to the address on the envelope? Well, it was on her way home, so she agreed. She started out to deliver the message, when she turned around to see if there was anything else the blind man needed. But she spotted him hurrying through the crowd without his smoked glasses or white cane. She went to the police, who raided the address on the envelope, where they found heaps of human flesh for sale. And what was in the envelope? A note saying 'This is the last one I am sending you today,"

Flex ur asking muscles!!
Have u ever wondered about the things you could get if you just asked.i mean for example maybe a promotion or that extra scoop of ice-cream or that bike from ur father ;) the last 2 egs are my experiences. Like that i can give you so many more examples but by now i guess you must have got what i'm trying to say.Many of us don't ask just coz we think that we wud be foolish..there is an old chinese saying that goes like this "He who asks maybe a fool for 5 mins. He who does'nt is a fool for a lifetime."
It makes me think of that advertisement i read in the classifieds."To the beautiful woman in a pink dress at Bandstand (Bandra) on Friday, March 24th @ 4 pm. You bumped into me in ur hurry to climb the rocks with your friends. I would love to meet and chat. contact me through this column or email me @ watever (his email address)"
Destiny had given this man an opportunity - possibly to meet the woman of his dreams and he had squandered it. And now after regretting that he "did not ask", he had to resort to placing an ad in the newspaper.
The more you ask , the more you get...ppl who know me very well know that this is my motto. And now i'm sharing it with u guys....take it or leave it. coz i surely benefitted a lot by this simple action of asking.But mind u it takes practice to get good at it...i've noticed a lot of people these days lack gutts. Success is a number's game.
Every arrow that hits the bull's eye is the result of one hundred misses.nobody is born perfect. You gotta try and try till you reach perfection. Over the coming weeks, flex ur asking muscles by asking for a better table at your favourite restaurent, for a free second scoop at your local ice-cream shop or for a complimentory upgrade on your next airline flight. You maybe suprised at the abundance that will flow into your life when you just ask sincerely for the things you want. Remember, the person who asks for what he wants at least has a chance of getting what he wants. The person who does not ask has no chance or loses his chance forever.
You can even go ask that gurl/guy you've been having a crush on, for a date...and who knows they might just say the golden word your ears are yearning for - "YES".
This lil secret of mine will surely boost ur confidence too...so wake up to a brand new you. :)
cheers...

So here i go with it's history -Snickers actually are made by Mars. It was introduced to Mars range of products in 1930. Snickers was named after one of the horses that was owned by the family. In UK it was called Marathon until 1990 when the name was changed to Snickers.Snickers has a layer of nougat which is like a paste, on top of this layer is a mixture of caramel and roasted peanuts and this is topped with milk chocolate that forms an outer layer.ok i'm already salivating....sry guys....but this is one chocolate i love a lot..

Anatomy of "Live-In" relationships
Like any other thing in the world livin-in relationships too have their pro's and cons...as a young gurl i used to look forward into getting in a live-in relationship...who wud'nt after hearing all those jokes bout commitment and how the sacrement of marriage sucks.But as i grown i've realised something - it's a male dominated world in some matters no matter how much we women try.
I would like to point out, and very firmly too, that live-in relationships maybe a "fad" in the western world but thankfully it is "not catching" in India..The model of heterosexual, monogamous marriage is sanctioned by society, religion and the law as the only acceptable type of sexual relationship. We in India are so heavily socialized to believe in the ideals of monogamy and marriage that many ppl cannot even imagine any other option. Yeh right think bout ur parents forcing u'll to marry once u complete 25 yrs.
Yes, we do hear and see of a few, very few stray cases but on the whole the strong interwoven fabric of morality and family values that is our pride and strength, still prevails and will hopefully continue to do so.
This increasing trend of live-in relationships, best observed in the west, favours the male member in the relationship.It's like why buy a cow when milk is readily available?? There is no commitment on his part. But what about the female member in the live-in relationship?
Disillusionment with love, single motherhood, social unacceptability and many times, she maybe the receiver of sexually transmitted diseases topped by devastating AIDS.
And spare a thought for the children who are the "fruit"of such relationships - they are scarred and traumatized for life; unfortunate offspring of an unfortunate couple of an unfortunate relationship.
The main claim of live-in relationships is that it does not bind the partners with "chains" of marriage. Actually there exists no chains in marriage. It is threads, hundreads of tiny threads which sew ppl together through the years. That is what makes a marriage last -more than passion or even sex.
