This is just too good not to share.
The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington engineering mid-term. The answer was so “profound” that the Professor shared it with colleagues, and the sharing obviously hasn’t ceased…
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or Endothermic (absorbs heat)?

The NICU is located on the eighth floor of the hospital. The waiting room, outside the NICU has a large window which overlooks the Ahmedabad city. Its not really a pretty sight, but when you have to spend hours on end in that waiting room, nothing else to do, staring out of that window seems to be a great option.
After the 8:30 a.m. round of the doctor, with nothing else to do, there I was standing @ the window, staring into the city.
Spread before me was the city that gave this grief to my dad.
I always considered February 23, 2003 as the worst sunday of my life. An office broke out in my office and everything that I had struggled over for years and accumulated and built was burnt and washed away.
However, February 18, 2007 beats it by a zillion times.
Imagine being woken up @ 5:00 in the morning to rush and find your father lying on the floor, foaming @ his mouth, laboured breathing and wet pyjamas.
An American decided to write a book about famous churches around the world. So he bought a plane ticket and took a trip to China.
On his first day he was inside a church taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read “$10,000 per call”.
The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what the telephone was used for. The priest replied that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 you could talk to God. The American thanked the priest and went along his way.

Kerban, a very dear friend of mine, forwarded across this amazing piece of puzzle, which is worth sharing here:
“I do not know where family doctors acquired illegibly perplexing handwriting nevertheless, extraordinary pharmaceutical intellectuality counterbalancing indecipherability, transcendentalizes intercommunications incomprehensibleness”
So do you observe something ??? Come on guess!!!
Mumbai has been subjected to one more calamity this July. If last July it was nature @ it’s worst, then this July it is man @ his beastly worst.
Planting bombs in local trains (which carry millions of people daily) during peak hours and blowing people away.
7 Bombs, 200 dead and around 780 injured is the latest toll. The news papers are reporting it on front page with pictures of crying relatives, weeping parents, anguished brother reading the list of dead people, journos writing a dairy of their D-Day reporting…. All very gut wrenching…
Technology has crippled me. My laptop conked (motherboard damaged) due to god knows why! My wireless card; a brand new one from Tata Indicom not working and my home broad band connection (form Hathway) no working too!
Isn’t that great. And with all this I felt a lot inefficient. Note, not angry, not frustrated, not irritated just pure in-efficient.

Once upon a time in a village a man appeared who announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for Rs. 10. The villagers seeing that there were many monkeys went out in the forest and started catching them. The man bought thousands at Rs. 10 and as supply started to diminish and villagers started to stop their effort he announced that now he would buy at Rs. 20 !!!
