* THOUGHT OF THE DAY *

Life is like the sea, we are moving without end. Nothing stay with us, what remain is just the memories of some people who touched us as waives

JOKES OF THE DAY:

1) CHINESE ARMY:

Army traditions and discipline run deep. A regiment had a new CO. On inspection he saw two soldiers guard a bench. He asked the reason.

“We don’t know, Sir The last CO told us to do so. It is a regimental tradition.”

The CO searched for the phone number of the last last commander. He called him and got the reply.

“I don’t know. The previous commander had the guards. I kept the tradition.”

He went back another three COs and untill he located an 80 year old retired General.

“Excuse me, sir. I’m now the CO of your regiment which you commanded 50 years ago. I find two men assigned to guard a bench. Could you please tell me about the bench?”

Retired General, “What? Is the paint still wet?”

2) Trumps Version of Muslim: it’s OK to make jokes about Christians, Hindus, Jews, Parsis now it’s time to level the playing field and be politically incorrect, by including our friends, the Muslims, on this grandiose list of Jokes.

So Trump did his part to include the Muslims on his list…

1. If you grow and refine heroin for a living, but morally object to the use of liquor, You may be a Muslim.

2. If you own a $3,000 machine gun and a $5,000 rocket launcher, but can’t afford shoes, You may be a Muslim.

3. If you have more wives than teeth, You may be a Muslim.

4. If you wipe your butt with your bare hand, but consider bacon to be unclean, You may be a Muslim.

5. If you think vests come in two styles, Bullet-proof and suicide, You may be a Muslim.

6. If you can’t think of anyone that you haven’t declared jihad against, You may be a Muslim.

7. If you consider television dangerous, but routinely carry explosives in your clothing, You may be a Muslim.

8. If you were amazed to discover that cell phones have uses, other than setting off roadside bombs, You may be a Muslim.

9. If you have nothing against women and think every man should own at least four, then you, too, may be a Muslim.

10. If you find this offensive and do not forward it, you are part of the problem here, but if you delete this, you are most likely a Muslim.(Pun added- Please forgive)

3) Once Dimple and Jaya meet over coffee. “Well Jaya, how are the kids I mean Abhishek and Ash?”

“To tell you the truth, my son has married a real tramp!” says Jaya. “She doesn’t get out of bed until 11. She’s out all day spending his money on Heaven knows what, and when he gets home, exhausted, does she have a nice hot dinner for him? Ha! She makes him take her out to dinner at an expensive restaurant.”Holy moly, She thinks him to be her Ash-Tray.

“Oh! What a shame. And how about your daughter Shweta?

Jaya Says,”Ah! Now there’s my lucky girl. She has married a saint. He brings her breakfast in bed, he gives her enough money to buy whatever she needs, and in the evening he always takes her out to dinner at a nice restaurant.”

Dimple gasps! Ha Lucky me to have daughter’s Simple and Twinkle and not a Son… Otherwise they usually say “Jhoru ka Gulam or Son of a Bit.h”

4) In the crowded Chembur station, a bespectacled man with a thick moustache approached a passenger and proclaimed in a heavy Malayali accent, “You’re Sippy Sopan!”

The passenger replied, “No, I am Rajesh Joshi!”

“Nyo, nyo, you’re Sippy Sopan,” persisted the Malayali.

“No, no, I am Rajesh Joshi,” insisted the passenger.

The exasperated Malayali looked to the right, looked to the left, pointed a finger at the man’s trousers (fly) and whispered…
.
.
“Your Sippy Sopan!!!`(UR zip is open)

5) A minister of a church loved peach brandy. One of his congregants would make him a bottle each Christmas. One year, when the minister went to visit his friend, hoping for his usual Christmas present, he was not disappointed as he unwrapped the homemade brandy. However, his friend told him that he had to thank him for the peach brandy from the pulpit the next Sunday.

So the next Sunday the minister suddenly remembered that he had to make a public announcement that he was being supplied alcohol from a member of the church. That morning, his friend sat in the church with a grin on his face, waiting to see the minister’s embarrassment.

The minister climbed into the pulpit and said, “Before we begin, I have an announcement. I would very much like to thank my friend, Joe, for his kind gift of peaches… and for the spirit in which they were given!”

6) पति ऑफिस से घर आया और खाना खाने बैठा।

खाते-खाते अपनी पत्नी से कहा कि `खाना ठीक नहीं है, कोई टेस्ट नहीं आ रहा है।”

पत्नी चुपचाप उठी, और उसनें कॉरपोरेशन में कॉल किया और एम्बुलेंस को बुला ली और कहा… इसे टेस्ट नहीं आ रहा है!

एम्बुलेंस पति को ले गयी और उसे क्वॉरंटाइन कर दिया।

इस प्रकार पत्नी ने बदला लिया।

उधर पति को पूछा गया कि आपके संपर्क में कौन-कौन आया था?

पति ने शांति से कहा.. .

– मेरी पत्नी

– मेरा ससुर

– मेरी सास

– मेरा साला

(साली को छोड़ के)

बस अब ये सब भी अस्पताल के बिस्तर पर बैठे-बैठे पति को याद कर रहे हैं !

7) GURU IS ALWAYS A GURU

एक रात, चार कॉलेज विद्यार्थी देर तक मस्ती करते रहे और जब होश आया तो अगली सुबह होने वाली परीक्षा का भूत उनके सामने आकर खड़ा हो गया।

परीक्षा से बचने के लिए उन्होंने एक योजना बनाई। मैकेनिकों जैसे गंदे और फटे पुराने कपड़े पहनकर वे प्रिंसिपल के सामने जा खड़े हुए और उन्हें अपनी दुर्दशा की जानकारी दी।

उन्होंने प्रिंसिपल को बताया कि कल रात वे चारों एक दोस्त की शादी में गए हुए थे। लौटते में गाड़ी का टायर पंक्चर हो गया। किसी तरह धक्का लगा-लगाकर गाड़ी को यहां तक लाए हैं। इतनी थकान है कि बैठना भी संभव नहीं दिखता, पेपर हल करना तो दूर की बात है। यदि आप हम चारों की परीक्षा आज के बजाय किसी और दिन ले लें तो बड़ी मेहरबानी होगी।

प्रिंसिपल साहब बड़ी आसानी से मान गए। उन्होंने तीन दिन बाद का समय दिया। विद्यार्थियों ने प्रिंसिपल साहब को धन्यवाद दिया और जाकर परीक्षा की तैयारी में लग गए।

तीन दिन बाद जब वे परीक्षा देने पहुंचे तो प्रिंसिपल ने बताया कि यह विशेष परीक्षा केवल उन चारों के लिए ही आयोजित की गई है। चारों को अलग-अलग कमरों में बैठना होगा।

चारों विद्यार्थी अपने-अपने नियत कमरों में जाकर बैठ गए। जो प्रश्नपत्र उन्हें दिया गया उसमें केवल दो ही प्रश्न थे:

प्र.1 आपका नाम क्या है? (2 अंक)

प्र.2 गाड़ी का कौन सा टायर पंक्चर हुआ था? (98 अंक)

8) पूरा देश रिया रिया हो रिया…

जिनकी नौकरी गयी, वो रो रिया,

जिनकी सैलरी कटी, वो भी रो रिया,

जिनको कोरोना हुआ, वो रो रिया,

जो कोरोना वॉरीअर है, वो भी रो रिया,

जिसकी दुकान, फैक्टरी धन्धा बंद हुआ, वो रो रिया,

मुंबई पुलिस, बिहार पुलिस, सीबीआई, न्यूज़ चैनल्स भी रिया रिया कर रिया,

और जो रिया है उसकी समझ में नहीं आ रिया कि उसके साथ हो क्या रिया!

9) चार चाइनीज कोरोना वायरस आपस में मिले! एक वायरस दूसरे से, “यार भारत आकर मैं तो फंस गया! एक घर में गया तो अदरक कूट कूट कर रोज चाय में पिला दी। मुश्किल से जान बचाकर भागा!”

दूसरा: यार मैं जिस घर में गया, उन्होंने तो रोज गिलोय, तुलसी, काली मिर्च ,शहद का काढ़ा पिलाकर मेरी ही फैमिली ख़त्म कर दी!

तीसरा: यार मेरे साथ बहुत बुरी बीती, वो परिवार तो सुबह उठते ही गर्म पानी पीता है और उसके बाद कपालभाति प्राणायाम करता है! जितना मैं उनकी साँसों में घुसने की कोशिश करता हूँ उतना ही वो मुझे धक्का दे के बाहर फेंक देते हैं!

चौथा: भाई मैं जिस परिवार में गया वो ऐसा कुछ नहीं करते… लेकिन चाय में तुलसी, नाश्ते में हल्दी, अजवायन का छोंक, खाने की सब्जी में लहसुन, जीरा, मेथी, दालचीनी, त्रिफला! हे भगवान इन भारतीयों के पास इतने कोरोना किलर हैं, ऊपर से ये हनुमान चालीसा पढ़ पढ़ के डराते हैं और हर घर में एक बुजुर्ग, एक दादी वो तो पूरे भगवान हैं, कोई न कोई जड़ी बूटी, मसाले बताते ही रहते हैं!

अब जब तक ये परिवार व्यवस्था और प्रभु में आस्था यहाँ रहेगी हम तो इनका कुछ बिगाड़ ही नहीं सकते!

10) एक आदमी महा कंजूस था। उसने एक शीशी में घी भर कर उसका मुँह बंद किया हुआ था। जब वह और उसके बेटे खाना खाते तब शीशी को रोटी से रगड़ कर खाना खा लेते थे।

एक बार कंजूस किसी काम से बाहर चला गया। लौटने पर उसने बेटों से पूछा, “खाना खा लिया था।”

बेटे बोले: हाँ।

कंजूस: पर शीशी तो मैं अलमारी में बंद करके गया था।

बेटे बोले: हमने अलमारी के हैंडल से रोटियाँ रगड़ कर खा लीं।

कंजूस नाराज हो कर बोला: नालायकों, क्या तुम लोग एक दिन बिना घी के खाना नहीं खा सकते थे।

*TELL ME WHY❓❓*

*Why do people become mad?*

Everyone of us oscillates between positive and negative emotions. Sometimes we go into the regions which are supposed to be “mad-regions”, but we are smart enough to come back to “normalcy” within reasonable time, or to fake normalcy. Those who go mad, lose themselves in those regions (which are considered to be outside normal or sensible behavior), or they don’t consider returning to normalcy important enough or worth it, or the trigger (it may be one event or a series of events) after which they plunged into “madness” affected and moved them so strongly or the emotions (like guilt or rage or chronic depression or hopelessness or absurdity of deemed hypocrisy of “normal” people that their priorities and view of life is distorted. They begin to disregard importance of living positive and constructive life and the fact that most people have to face their own problems. Perhaps madness may be caused by chemical imbalance in brain;

*LEARN SANSKRIT*

grass = *तृणा* | trunnaa.

*HOW IT WORKS* ⁉

Drones use their rotors—which consist of a propeller attached to a motor—to hover, meaning the downward thrust of the drone is equal to the gravitational pull working against it; climb, when pilots increase the speed until the rotors produce an upward force greater than gravity;

Propellers and engines give drones forward movement capabilities. In fixed-wing drones, the propeller provides forward propulsion, allowing the wing to generate lift. On rotary-winged crafts like quadcopters, propellers provide lift as well as steering capabilities by generating downward and lateral forces.

Multi-Rotor works on relative nature of force, that means when the rotor pushes the air, the air also pushes the rotor back. This is the basic principle that the Multi-Rotor can go up and down. Furthermore, the faster the rotor rotates, the greater the lift, and vice versa.

*HEALTH CARE: HOME REMEDIES*
( *Note* : These home tips followed in villages/ancient traditions, it is up to you to use it or not)

*Health benefits of Banana*

*Banana* is loaded with fibre, both soluble and insoluble. The soluble fiber has the tendency to slow down digestion and keep you feeling full for a longer time. Which is why bananas are often included in a breakfast meal so that you can start about your day without having to worry about the next meal

According to Ayurveda, banana has a sweet and sour taste. The sweet taste is said to bring about a sense of heaviness but the sour taste is known to stimulate agni (the digestive juices), thereby supporting digestion and helping in building up metabolism.
