When you have a 'I Hate My Job' day, [even if retired you have those sometimes]
Try this:


On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and purchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson

Be very sure you get this brand. When you get home, lock your doors, draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed.

Change into very comfortable clothing and sit in your favorite chair. Open the package and remove the thermometer. Now, carefully place it on a table or a surface so that it will not become chipped or broken.


Now the fun part begins.

Take out the literature from the box and read it carefully.
You will notice that in small print there is a statement:
'Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson is personally tested and then sanitized.'

Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times,
'I am so glad I do not work in the thermometer quality control department at Johnson & Johnson.'




HAVE A NICE DAY AND REMEMBER, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE WITH A JOB THAT IS MORE OF A PAIN IN THE ASS THAN YOURS!

Childish superstition: Einstein's letter makes view of religion relatively clear. A little known letter written by Albert Einstein indicated that the theoretical physicist was no supporter of religious beliefs, which he regarded as "childish superstitions". Einstein wrote the letter on 3 January 1954 to the philosopher Eric Gutkind who had sent him a copy of his book Choose Life: The Biblical Call to Revolt. The letter has remained in private hands ever since and now it will be auctioned this week in London.

In the letter,

Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind. The word god is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this. For me the Jewish religion like all others is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions. And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people. As far as my experience goes, they are no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything 'chosen' about them.


The letter will go on sale at Bloomsbury Auctions in Mayfair on Thursday and is expected to fetch up to £8,000. The handwritten piece, in German, is not listed in the source material of the most authoritative academic text on the subject, Max Jammer's book Einstein and Religion.

Albert Einstein as a Jew himself, said he had a great affinity with Jewish people but said they "have no different quality for me than all other people".

Loneliness


Silently thy heart cries,

Despondency lies deep within thy soul.

Believing and Clinging onto dreams,

How could it be wrong?

When in reality letting go makes you stronger.

Humbled and Head bowed, being in ultimate despair,

Growing weary of a world that never seems to care.


Love thou seek and never found,

The greatest gift, is to set your spirit free,

But now the roads too dark and too dark,

Thy eyes acclimatized to the dark surroundings,

And to be alone forever, is that thy destiny?

How to Pick Your Nose Inconspicuously




STEPS
The Thumb-Finger Method

1. Position the index finger of the opposite-side hand alongside the exterior of the obstructed channel.

2. Nonchalantly slip the thumb as deep as necessary into the nostril.

3. Using the thumbnail, delicately clamp onto the dried mucous mass.

4. Slowly withdraw the thumb and it's payload from the nostril. At this step in the process be particularly vigilant for any trailing mucous which might be attached to the payload. These un-noticed "stringers" can jeopardize the entire operation.

5. Return the hand to a more natural position and discreetly execute a flicking motion with the thumb. This should launch the material sufficiently far away from you that it becomes someone else's problem.

6. Remember...never wipe it on your shirt or trousers - its always a dead giveaway.

7. Always beware of flicking too hard. If the offending article sticks to the ceiling, it'll be there forever.


The Advanced Hand-Guard Method

1. Slightly cup the left hand and position it so that your forefinger is below your right eye and your thumb is below your left eye. The palm will be hiding the nostrils from onlookers who will be convinced that you are rubbing your cheeks as one does when trying to ease the symptoms of a headache, or of weariness, (simultaneously closing one's eyes makes the tactic even more effective).

2. In a natural, confident motion bring the right hand up and under the left hand. Use the right index finger to probe, acquire and extract the residual material. After returning the right hand to a secure location execute a flicking maneuver to eject the material.


The Athletic Nose-blow

1. If you find your mineshaft quite often gets cave-ins you may find this a useful technique to clear blocked passages. This does require a bit of exercise, so if you have a condition which makes exerting yourself dangerous then you might want to steer clear of this method.

2. First, work yourself up to a nice sweat. This will get the blood circulating in all parts of the body including your head. Once this has been accomplished while your running, or performing whatever exercise, have a quick glance around to make sure no one is looking, casually turn you're head out of line-of-sight, take a deep breath, close your mouth and push all the air from your lungs as well as the offending road-block in one explosive breath. You may be saying to yourself, "How is this inconspicuous". This can be done both effectively and inconspicuously even if people are around under the guise of a feigned sneeze. Voila! Enjoy a nice deep breath through your newly cleared olfactory mines.


The Fake Cough

1. Fake a cough slightly while bringing your hand up to your mouth (as if to cover the cough).

2. Raise your index finger up to the nostril that's bothering you.

The Turnaround

1. Slowly excuse yourself and slowly turn around. Extract material from nose quickly and keep your hand down on your lap. Then, when you are talking to somebody and they have their full attention to your face, flick material into the world.

The Hair Wipe

1. After a nosepick has been executed and there is a sign that it has occured (mucus) casualy rub nose with palm and follow through, act like you are combing hair out of your eyes with your fingers then return hand to side. After this, to remove nasal waste from hand, wipe on the back knee of pants or the cuff of your pants.



TIPS

* As of today, at nearly all social levels, overt nosepicking is forbidden.

* Make sure you do this at a time when people are not looking directly at you. If they are, try to create some sort of diversion, like pointing out something on the other side of the room/street. If you are the center of attention, such as when speaking on live television, occupying a podium or pulpit, or doing a magic trick for a group of children, you may be out of luck.

* If you think your activity has been detected, immediately suspend mining operations and begin to scratch your nose. This will usually convince even the nosiest (no pun intended) observer that you were merely dealing with an itch, which is not forbidden.

* If the flicking maneuver cannot be performed, stay calm and don't panic. Simply roll the extracted material between your forefinger and thumb (the famous WRB "pick n' roll"). This will cause the substance to take on a spherical shape. When you relax your finger pressure the force of gravity will irresistibly pull the mass directly to the floor where it will join all the others of its kind along with the dead skin, dust and cat hairballs. The mucous cycle is now complete.

* If you are driving a car at night, you may dispense with any pretenses. Other drivers will not be able to see you due to their focus on the road and the glare of headlights. Beware of well lit intersections and changing traffic signals - always be prepared to revert into a faux itch management posture!

* Make sure you have a booger and not a long strand of snot. It could get messy.

* Carry a hankie or tissue around - you can cover the finger, which may be more sanitary.

* Always carry a small item in your pocket that you can drop at just the necessary picking moment.



WARNINGS

* Never perform a visual examination of whatever it is you have extracted from your nose! This is most amateurish and is one of the most common ways of getting caught.

* Computer programmers are more likely to perform a visual inspection of the results. This is due to their training: Always check your output! If you are a computer programmer, be aware of this tendency.

* Post-operative protocol requires immediate and thorough hand-washing.



How to pick w/o using ur hands

Nearly everyone has fallen to the temptation of picking one's nose in public. It is a strangely pleasant experience, but unfortunately an experience that is meant to be done in private rather than in full view of the public eye.



The Nose Picker offers a more hygienic approach to this favorite past time, boasting a fake finger that is made from synthetic rubber along with a clean nail to boot. There is a handle located at the end of the finger's joint for you to navigate it thru your nasal orifices.




You can now dig like how the miners did during the Great Californian Gold Rush with wanton abandon.

Cyclone Nargis Claimed 28,458 Deaths

YANGON - The death toll from Myanmar's devastating Cyclone Nargis has risen to 28,458, with 33,416 people still missing, according to a report from a state-owned television station broadcast on Sunday.

The new toll raised the number of those killed when the storm hit on May 3 by more than 5,000, with previous official figures putting the death toll at 23,335, with 37,019 injured.

Foreign embassy officials in Myanmar have warned that the death toll is likely closer to 100,000, and the UN has warned that tens of thousands more could die unless vital aid reaches some two million people.

Red Cross ship sinks while delivering aid

A Red Cross ship delivering relief supplies to cyclone victims sank in Burma's Irrawaddy delta on Sunday.

The ship, carrying food, clothes and other relief materials, sank after striking submerged tree roots. The International Federation of Red Cross said four staffs onboard were safe.

"The boat was our first shipment to the Irrawaddy Delta. We lost most of the aid supplies but our staff are safe," Eric Porterfield, media officer of the IFRC, said.

Porterfield said the boat was traveling from Rangoon to Bogalay, one of the hardest hit areas by Cyclone Nargis, which swept through Burma's delta region on May 2.

The ship was carrying 100 bags of rice, 5,000 litres of drinking water, 10,000 water purification tablets, 200 jerry cans to carry water, 10 stretchers, 30 boxes of clothes, 30 family kits containing 22 different household items each, 1,000 bars of soap, 800 rubber gloves and 1,000 surgical masks, the IFRC said in its statement.
