Jail Break

Man.....The kind of ingenuity that the human mind can conjure up when pushed into a corner is just amazing. Equally amazing is the kind of incompetence displayed by the guards in this prison.

Read the story of a jailbreak inIndonesia

But one thing...This jailbreak is the least of Indonesias problems. The Tsunami has left the island completely devastated and these days there are hardly any news from around that part of the world.

NICE

This is an excerpt from Scott Adams (of the Dilbert fame ) blog

Human Behavior

If aliens landed in your backyard and gave you one minute to describe everything there is to know about human behavior, what would you say?

I found an answer to that question today as I was looking through my old e-mails. This story was sent to me by a Dilbert reader.

--- start ---

The maintenance man is moving the thermostat in our office today. I started talking with him about the "Thermostat Wars" [from Dilbert comics]. He told me about one office with 30 women where they could never get the temperature to an agreeable level. At his suggestion they installed 20 dummy thermostats around the office. Everyone was told that each thermostat controlled the zone around itself.

Problem solved. Now that everyone has "control" of their own thermostat there is no problem.

Caught in Chocolate

I can imagine some people who would love to be involved in such an accident...Maybe I am being insensitive to the poor soul who had to spend time in chocolat---quite literally :)

Read this News article

The best part of the story is this line
" used cocoa-butter to thin out the chocolate and pull him free. ".........
Hmmm.....Chemists
