Joke of the Day
A man and his wife are awakened, at 3 o'clock in the morning
by a loud pounding on the door.
The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger,
standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.
"Not a chance," says the husband, "it is 3 o'clock in the
morning!" He slams the door and returns to bed.
"Who was that?" asked his wife.
"Just some drunk guy asking for a push," he answers.
"Did you help him?" she asks.
"No, I did not, it is 3 o'clock in the morning and it is
pouring out there!"
"Well, you have a short memory," says his wife. "Can't you
remember, about three months ago when we broke down, and those two guys
helped us? I think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of
yourself!"
The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out into
the pounding rain.
He calls out into the dark, "Hello, are you still there?"
"Yes" comes back the answer.
"Do you still need a push?", calls out the husband.
"Yes, please! comes the reply from the dark.
"Where are you?" asks the husband.
"Over here on the swing!" replies the drunk.
Thought of the Day
I tell you it's no use arguing with a communist. It's no good trying to convert a communist or persuade him.You can only deal with him on the following basis...you can only do it by having superior force on your side on the matter in question --and they must also be convinced that you will use --- you will not hesitate to use -- those forces , if necessary, in the most ruthless manner. You have not only to convince a communist government that you have a superior force -- that they are confronted by superior force--but that you are not restrained by any moral consideration, if the case arose , from using that force with complete material ruthlessness. And that is the greatest chance of peace, the surest road to peace.
SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL- March 25, 1949.
