Joke of the day

Posted by at 10:21
A duck walks into a pub and orders a pint of beer and a ham sandwich. 

The barman looks at him and says, "Hang on! You're a duck."

"I see your eyes are working," replies the duck.

"And you can talk!" exclaims the barman.

"I see your ears are working, too," says the duck. "Now if you don't mind, can I have my beer and my sandwich please?"

"Certainly, sorry about that," says the barman as he pulls the duck's pint. "It's just we don't get many ducks in this pub. What are you doing round this way?"

"I'm working on the building site across the road," explains the duck. "I'm a plasterer."

The flabbergasted barman cannot believe the duck and wants to learn more, but takes the hint when the duck pulls out a newspaper from his bag and proceeds to read it.

So, the duck reads his paper, drinks his beer, eats his sandwich, bids the barman good day and leaves.

The same thing happens for two weeks.

Then one day the circus comes to town.

The ringmaster comes into the pub for a pint and the barman says to him "You're with the circus, aren't you? Well, I know this duck that could be just brilliant in your circus. He talks, drinks beer, eats sandwiches, reads the newspaper and everything!"

"Sounds marvelous," says the ringmaster, handing over his business card. "Get him to give me a call."

So the next day when the duck comes into the pub the barman says, "Hey Mr. Duck, I reckon I can line you up with a top job, paying really good money."

"I'm always looking for the next job," says the duck. "Where is it?"

"At the circus," says the barman.

"The circus?" repeats the duck.

"That's right," replies the barman.

"The circus?" the duck asks again. "That place with the big tent?" 

"Yeah," the barman replies.

"With all the animals who live in cages, and performers who live in caravans?" says the duck.

"Of course," the barman replies.

"And the tent has canvas sides and a big canvas roof with a hole in the middle?" persists the duck.

"That's right!" says the barman.

The duck shakes his head in amazement, and says .. . . 

"What the f*** would they want with a plasterer??!"

Tribuim, Maria Ta !

Posted by at 17:09
Acum aproximativ un an de zile, intr-unul din foarte rarele momente in care chiar nu aveam nimic de facut, am vazut pe o pagina de net o reclama la un joc online, Triburile. Cum nu aveam ce face, mi-am facut cont si am inceput sa "tribuiesc". Un amic a descris perfect acest joc, de aceea am decis sa copiez (cu acordul lui evident) textul lui personal fara sa-l modific, sa sterg, sa adaug... 

"Hmm… acum cativa ani niste nemti n-au avut ce face si au inventat Triburile.
De atunci incoace l-au tot perfectionat asa ca putem spune ca de fapt l-au reinventat de cateva ori…

“… un joc online bazat pe un browser web” zice la definitie.
Ce-ar putea fi mai mult decat atat? Poate o proiectie virtuala, cumva simplificata si la scara redusa, a lumii reale…
… mda, la fel ca in lumea reala, intalnesti aici tot felul de situatii si persoane.
Uneori starneste antipatii alteori leaga prietenii, consemneaza “mari” victorii si ascunde mici drame.
Il joaca expansivi si introvertiti, veseli si imbufnati, “fermieri” si “ferme”, glumeti si seriosi, increzuti si modesti, superficiali dar si “disperati” care aproape ca au facut din asta un mod de viata, jigodii si oameni de caracter, mincinosi si oameni de cuvant, “macho men” sau fricosi, parteneri loiali sau tradatori prin vocatie, “jmecheri” cu multiaccounturi, narcisisti, histrioni, schizoizi, maniaci depresivi, oameni “normali”…
…oameni si oameni.
Il joaca baieti si fete, copii si “copii batrani” (care de-acum au chiar ei copiii lor)
Il joaca de la PC, de pe laptop sau de pe telemobil, acasa (pana noaptea tarziu, cand toti ai casei dorm de mult, iar uneori pana spre ziua), la scoala (pe ascuns sa nu-i vada profa) sau la birou (pe furis sa nu-i prinda sefu’) pe strada, in masina, in tren, poate chiar pe scara avionului…
Ce mai, dom’le, o intrega nebunie!

Insa dincolo de toate astea Triburile ramane DOAR UN JOC!
Si, daca tot v-ati legat la cap cu el, jucati-l cu placere si distrati-va! "

Prin urmare, tribuiti, dar tribuiti cu placere! Va recomand jocul doar daca aveti ceva timp la dispozitie, daca aveti posibilitatea sa accesati jocul aproape oricand, daca nu va enervati repede, daca aveti rabdare de fier, daca puteti accepta sa fiti invatati de copii de 10 ani iar voi sa aveti triplu, inca o data daca aveti rabdare, daca aveti putere de convingere, daca va promiteti inainte de fiecare accesare ca va veti pastra calmul si pentru ultima data daca aveti rabdare. 

Tribuire placuta!


Timing is everything
