Just came across a joke. Usually i keep away from politics but this one is hilarious. No offense intended to anyone.

While visiting India , George Bush is invited to tea with Abdul Kalam. He asks Kalam what his leadership philosophy is. He says that, it is to surround himself with intelligent people.

Bush asks how he knows if they’re intelligent.

“I do so by asking them the right questions,” says Kalam. “Allow me to demonstrate.”

Bush watches as Kalam phones Manmohan Singh and says,

” Mr. Prime Minister, please answer this question:
Your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or sister. Who is it?”

Manmohan immediately responds, “It’s me, Sir !”

“Correct. Thank you and good-bye” says Kalam. He hangs
up and says,” Did you get that, Mr. Bush?”

Bush nods: “Yes Mr. President. Thanks a lot.

I’ll definitely be using that!”

Bush, upon returning to Washington, decides he’d better put Condoleezza Rice to the test. Bush summons her to the White House and says,
“Condoleezza, I wonder if you can answer a question for me.”

“Why, of course, sir. What’s on your mind?”

Bush poses the question: “Uhh, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?”

Rice was puzzled and finally asks, “Can I think about it and get back to you?” Bush agrees, and Rice leaves.

Rice immediately calls a meeting of senior senators, and they puzzle over the question for several hours, but nobody can come up with an answer. Finally,
in desperation, Rice calls Colin Powell and explains the problem.

” Mr. Powell, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?”

Powell answers immediately, “It’s me, of course.”

Much relieved, Rice rushes back to the White House, finds George Bush, and exclaims,

“I know the answer, sir! I know who it is! It’s our Colin Powell!”

And Bush replies in disgust, “Wrong,

Just came across a small interesting story with a lesson to be learned.

A bus driver was up to his routine job. Started the bus from the garage and went on from one stop to another. People were getting in and out at the bus stops. No problems till then. In the next bus stop a big hulk boards the bus. He is six feet tall, well built body and long arms. Stares the bus driver and says “Big John won’t pay”. The driver is amused and doesn’t know what to do. Big John takes his seat in the bus.

This started repeating everyday and the bus driver started loosing his sleep. The driver wanted to do something. So enrolled himself for the body building classes and karate classes. After a few days the bus driver had put on some weight and knows a few karate steps for self defense. He felt its time to stand up against Big John.

The next day, Big John boards the bus and repeats the words “Big John won’t pay”. The bus driver stares at Big John and screams “Why is that Big John won’t pay”. Big John is little amused and replies “Because Big John has a bus pass”.

Lesson: First make sure you have a problem before trying to solve one. This pretty much applies to all fields including domaining.
