I’ve encountered this funny array of pictures regarding the logo of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. [credits to http://funnychill.com]

There are only 10 types of people in the world: Those who can understand binary and those who don’t.

I’ve encountered this “quote” on our Embedded Systems class last year. I love its geekiness.

Anyway, this shirt is available at ThinkGeek.com.

On my journey searching a nice math article (Math 5 assignment), I stumbled on this funny math joke. Presenting.. infinite limits (Go Ma’am Egasan, lesson natin yan!).

Tinatamad ka na bang bisitahin ang inyong loved ones sa sementeryo? Text DALAW [space] ON to 2366. Sila na mismo ang dadalaw sa’yo. Text na!

Okay rin na text joke! Hehehe. Magpopost nanaman ako ng Tagalog, matagal-tagal na rin ang last Tagalog post ko. Hehehe.

WARNING: This is not a true story. This story and the posting of this story does not intend to destroy the reputation of Harvard.

A lady in a faded gingham dress and her husband, dressed in a homespun, threadbare suit, stepped of the train in Boston, and walked timidly without an appointment into the Harvard University President’s outer office. The Secretary could tell in a moment that such backwoods; country hicks had no business at Harvard and probably didn’t even deserve to be in Cambridge. She frowned as the man said softly “we want to see the President.”

“He’ll be busy all day,” the Secretary snapped.

“We’ll wait,” the lady replied.

For hours, the Secretary ignored them, hoping that the couple would finally become discouraged and go away. They didn’t; and the Secretary grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the President, even though it was a chore she always regretted.

“Maybe if they just see you for a few minutes, they’ll leave,” she told him.

He sighed in exasperation and nodded. Someone of his importance obviously didn’t have the time to spend with them, but he detested gingham dresses and homespun suits cluttering up his outer office. The President, stern-faced with dignity, strutted toward the couple.

The lady told him, “We had a son who attended Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was happy here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed. And my husband and I would like to erect a memorial to him, somewhere on campus.”

The President wasn’t touched, he was shocked, “Madam,” he said gruffly. “We can’t put up a statue for every person who attended Harvard and died. If we did, this place would look like a cemetery”.

“Oh, no,” the lady explained quickly. “We don’t want to erect a statue. We thought we would like to give a building to Harvard.”

The president rolled his eyes. He glanced at the gingham dress and homespun suit, then exclaimed “A building, do you have any earthly idea how much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars in the physical plant at Harvard.” For a moment the lady was silent. The president was pleased. He could get rid of them now.

And the lady turned to her husband and said quietly, “Is that all it costs to start a University? Why don’t we just start our own?”

Her husband nodded.

The President’s face wilted in confusion and bewilderment. And Mr. and Mrs. Leland Stanford walked away; traveling to Palo Alto, California, where they established the university that bears their name, a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer cared about.

Moral of the story: The overused quote, “Don’t judge a book by its cover!”

In line with my previous post on Pacquiao and Barrera’s fight, here is a related Inday joke.

Amo: Yan Pacman, patumbahin mo na!! Tirahin mo ng kaliwa mo, yan uppercut! Bilis matatapos na ang round! Ay grabe what a cheap shot. Duga mo Barrera porke talo ka lang…Inday: Sir pardon my interruption but I need to send an SMS message to Dodong…

Amo: Ay pambihira ka Inday, patapusin mo man lang itong round! Teka lang…
