The cricketer was proud of his progress as a batsman and invited his mother-in-law along to watch him play, hoping to impress her. At the crease, he turned to the wicket-keeper and said 'I'm anxious to do well and really hit this ball. That's my wife's mother over there.' Don't be silly,' said the wicket-keeper. 'You'll never hit her at two hundred yards.
Once a Desi in New York went to buy one Wrist Watch. He entered in one of the Watch Shops in Manhattan and went one round all through the shop. One of the Salesmen invited him and asked him about his requirements. He wanted one Gents Wrist Watch. The Salesman showed him one of the best choice in his shop. Pyara was impressed by the piece and asked the price of the watch. The salesmen tole him it is $100/-. Hearing the price he recollected one of his friend's piece of advice that in Manhattan all items are doubly charged. Taking into consideration of his friend's advice he started negotiating. He told the Salesman if it is for $50/- he is interested. The Salesman did not want to lose the business. He came down with the price $80/- Again Pyara wanted the Watch for $40/-. Then the salesman told "no no I will charge you $50/- last price". Again Pyara wanted the watch for $25/-. Hearing this the Salesmen got annoyed and told Pyara he is giving the Watch Free Of Cost. Pyara was happy and asked the Salesman that if it is on Free Of Cost "GIVE ME TWO WATCHES"
The husband checked into the hotel. There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an e-mail to his wife. However, he accidentally typed wrong e-mail address, and without realizing his error, he sent the e-mail.
Meanwhile.....somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned home from her husband's funeral. He was a minister of many years who was called home to glory following a sudden heart attack. The widow decided to check her e-mail, expecting messages from relatives and friends.
After reading the first message, she fainted. The widow's son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read: To: My Loving Wife Subject: I've Arrived Date: 16 May 2006
I know you're surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now, andyou are allowed to send e-mails to your loved ones. I've just arrived and have been checked in. I see that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you then! Hope your journey is as uneventful as mine was
Rajiv and Mona are flying to Australia for a two-week vacation to celebrate their 40th anniversary. Suddenly, over the public address system, the Captain announces, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I have some very bad news. Our engines have ceased functioning and we will attempt an emergency landing. Luckily, I see an uncharted island below us and we should be able to land on the beach. However, the odds are that we may never be rescued and will have to live on the island for the rest of our lives!"
Thanks to the skill of the flight crew, the plane lands safely on the island.An hour later Rajiv turns to his wife and asks, "Mona, did we pay our Rs5lakh deposit cheque yet to ICICI Bank?" "No, sweetheart," she responds.
Rajiv, still shaken from the crash landing, then asks, "Mona, did we pay our ICICI Bank Master card yet?" "Oh no! I'm sorry. I forgot to send the cheque," she says.
"One last thing, Mona. Did you remember to send cheques for the auto loan to them too this month?" he asks. "Oh, forgive me, Rajiv," begged Mona. "I didn't send that one, either."
Rajiv grabs her and gives her the biggest hug in 40 years. Mona pulls away and asks him, "So, why did you hug me?" Rajiv answers, "They'll find us!"
