The Consultant

Once upon a time there was a shepherd looking after his sheep on the
side of a deserted road. Suddenly a brand new Porsche screeches to a
halt.
The driver, a man dressed in an Armani suit, Cerutti shoes,
Ray-Ban sunglasses, TAG-Heuer wrist-watch, and a Pierre Cardin
tie gets out and asks the shepherd, "If I can tell you how many
sheep you have, will you give me one of them?"
The shepherd looks at the young man, and then looks at the large
flock of grazing sheep and replies, "Okay."
The young man parks the car, connects his laptop to the mobile-fax,
enters a NASA Website, scans the ground using his GPS, opens a
database and 60 Excel tables filled with algorithms and pivot
tables. He then prints out a 150-page report on his high-tech mini-
printer, turns to the shepherd and says, "You have exactly 1,586
sheep."
The shepherd cheers, "That's correct, you can have your sheep."
The young man takes an animal and puts it in the back of his Porsche.
The shepherd looks at him and asks, "If I guess your profession, will
you return my animal to me?"
The young man answers. "Yes, why not"?
The shepherd says, "You are a Consultant."
"How did you know?" asks the young man.
"Very simple," answers the shepherd. "Firstly, you came here without
being wanted. Secondly, you charged me a fee to tell me something I
already knew. Thirdly, you don't understand anything about my
business..."
".....Now can I have my dog back?"

Beauty of Maths!

Absolutely amazing!

Beauty of Maths!
1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321
1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111
9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888

Brilliant, isn't it?
And look at this symmetry:

1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111=12345678987654321



Now, take a look at this...


101%



>From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:



What Equals 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?

We have all been in situations where someone wants you to
GIVE OVER 100%.

How about ACHIEVING 101%?


What equals 100% in life?


Here's a little mathematical formula that might help
answer these questions:


If:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.


If:


H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K

8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%


And:

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E

11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%


But:

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E

1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%



THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:



L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D

12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%


Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:

While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will
get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!

It's up to you if you share this with your friends & loved ones just
the way I did.

Have a nice day & God bless !

There was this young man, unaccomplished, but born to a rich father.
He is wandering in life, when one day the doctor tells him that his
father is going to die.........

He wishes to marry so that he can enjoy the company of a beautiful
woman and his father's wealth...... ..

He is looking around when he spots a most naturally beutiful woman.
He approaches her one day and aks her out for a cup of coffee. During
their interaction he pours his heart out, admits his failings, his
desire to marry her and tells her, even though I am not successful,
my father is going to die soon and leave me a 100mn

A week later his father calls him to introduce his soon to be step
mother.

Women are so much better at estate planning, aren't they ??

Letter to Bill Gates

Dear Mr. Bill Gates,This letter is from Banta Singh from Punjab. We have bought a computer for our home and we found problems, which I want to bring to your
notice.

1. After connecting to Internet we planned to open e-mail account andwhenever we fill the form in Hotmail in the password column, only****** appears, but in the rest of the fields whatever we typed appears, but we face this problem only in password field. We checkedwith hardware vendor Santa Singh and he said that there is no problemin keyboard. Because of this we open the e-mail account with password*****. I request you to check this as we ourselves do not know what the password is.

2. We are unable to enter anything after we click the 'shut down ' button.

3. There is a button 'start' but there is no "stop" button. We requestyou to check this.


4. We find there is 'Run' in the menu. One of my friend clicked 'run 'has ran upto Amritsar! So, we request you to change that to "sit", sothat we can click that by sitting.

5. One doubt is that any 're-scooter' available in system? As I find only 're-cycle', but I own a scooter at my home.

6. There is 'Find' button but it is not working properly. My wife lostthe door key and we tried a lot for tracing the key with this ' find', but unable to trace. Is it a bug??

7. Every night I am not sleeping as I have to protect my 'mouse' from CAT, So I suggest u to provide one DOG to kill that cat.

8. Please confirm when u are going to give me money for winning 'HEARTS' (playing cards in games) and when are u coming to my home tocollect ur money.

9. My child learnt 'Microsoft word' now he wants to learn 'Microsoftsentence', so when u will provide that?


Best regards,Banta Singh
