A SWAHILI MAN TAKES ALL

A white man and a Swahili man are sitting next to each other on a long flight.

The white man is thinking that the Swahili people are so dumb and that he can get one over on them easily so he asks the Swahili to play a fun game.

 The swahili man is tired and j wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and tries to catch a few winks.

The white fellow persists and says the game is very interesting. "I'll ask you a question and if you don't know the answer you pay me only KES 100.

You ask me one and if I don't know the answer I will give you 100 USD".

This catches the Swahili man's attention and to keep the white quiet he agrees to play the game.

The white asks the question, "What's the distance from the Earth to the Moon?"

The swahili doesn't say a word reaches in his pocket pulls KES 500 and hands to the White.

Now it is the Swahili's turn. He asks the White, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?" 

The white uses his laptop and searches everywhere he could find on the Net, sends e-mails to all smart friends all in vain.

After one hour he finanally gives up.

 He wakes up the swahili guy and hands him USD 100. 

The guy pockets and goes back to sleep. 

The White is not happy. 

He wakes the swahili guy up and asks him "Well pal, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?" 

The swahili guy reaches in his pocket, hands the Whiteman KES 500 and goes back to sleep.

Don't mess with a Mswahili.

KINDERGARTEN CLASS

 A kindergarten teacher one day is trying to explain to her class the definition of the word “definitely.” To make sure the students have a good understanding of the word, she asks them to use it in a sentence. The first student raises his hand and says, “The sky is definitely blue.” The teacher says, “Well, that isn’t entirely correct, because sometimes it’s gray and cloudy.” Another student says, “Grass is definitely green.” The teacher again replies, “If grass doesn’t get enough water, it turns brown, so that isn’t really correct either.” Another student raises his hand and asks the teacher, “Do farts have lumps?” The teacher looks at him and says, “No, but that isn’t really question you want to ask in class discussion.” So the student replies, “Then I’ve definitely shit in my pants.”

DESIDERATA 💯

  GO PLACIDLY amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
