Time Pass: Funny, Humorous and Good Things

Sachin can play leg glance with a walking stick too- Waqar Younis “Commit all your crimes when Sachin is batting. They will go unnoticed because even the Lord is watching.” — A placard at the Sydney Cricket Ground “Don’t bowl him bad balls, he hits the good ones for fours.” — Michael Kasprowicz Nothing bad can happen to us if we’re on a plane in India with Sachin Tendulkar on it.” — Hashim Amla Sachin Tendulkar has often reminded me of a veteran army colonel who has many medals on his chest to show how he has conquered bowlers all over the world.” — Allan Donald “If I’ve to bowl to Sachin, I’ll bowl with my helmet on. He hits the ball so hard.” — Dennis Lillee. On a train from Shimla to Delhi, there was a halt at one of the stations. The train stopped by for few minutes as usual. Sachin was nearing a century, batting on 98. The passengers, railway officials, everyone on the train waited for Sachin to complete the century. This genius can stop time in India!” — Peter Roebuck “We did not...

Over the years, I’ve collected some of the smartest-yet-funny software development quotes I have read. Here’s the current short list in no particular order. Oddly enough, there are thirteen of them and they all address the woes of programming. Feel free to add any like quotes in the comment section! “The first 90% of the code accounts for the first 90% of the development time. The remaining 10% of the code accounts for the other 90% of the development time.” – Tom Cargill “In order to understand recursion, one must first understand recursion.” – Author Unknown “I have always wished for my computer to be as easy to use as my telephone; my wish has come true because I can no longer figure out how to use my telephone.” – Bjarne Stroustrup “A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any other invention in human history, with the possible exceptions of handguns and tequila.” – Mitch Ratcliffe “There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make i...

Women like silent men. They think they're listening. A woman, especially if she has the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can. If there is anything disagreeable going on, men are always sure to get out of it. Beauty: That power by which a woman charms a lover and terrifies a husband. While farmers generally allow one rooster for ten hens, ten men are scarcely sufficient to service one woman. Men like to pursue an elusive woman like a cake of wet soap -- even men who hate baths. Were there no women, men might live like gods. I love Mickey Mouse more than any woman I have ever known. Woman inspires us to great things, and prevents us from achieving them. There's a difference between beauty and charm. A beautiful woman is one I notice. A charming woman is one who notices me. A beautiful woman is the hell of the soul, the purgatory of the purse, and the paradise of the eyes. Anatomy is destiny. The great question -- which I have not been able to answe...

CONFIDENCE Once, all village people decided to pray for rain. On the day of prayer all people gathered and only one boy came with an Umbrella, that's Confidence. TRUST Trust should be like the feeling of a one year old baby when you throw him in the air, he laughs...... because he knows you will catch him; that's Trust. HOPE Every night we go to bed, we have no assurance to get up alive in the next morning but still you have plans for the coming day; that's Hope. So keep Confidence, Trust others and never loose Hope. Technorati : confidence , examples , hope , trust
