Barber Shop-
A guy sticks his head in the barber shop and asks "How long before I can get a haircut?" The barber looks around the shop and says, "About 2 hours." The guy leaves. A few days later, the same guy sticks his head in the door and asks, "How long before I get a haircut?" The barber looks around the shop full of customers and says, "About 2 hours." The guy leaves.
A week later, the same guy sticks his head in the shop and asks, "How long before I can get a haircut?" The barber looks around the shop an says, "About an hour and half." The guy leaves.
The barber looks over at a friend in the shop, and says, "Hey Bill, follow that guy and see where he goes." In a little while, Bill comes back into the shop laughing hysterically.
The barber asks, "Bill where did he go when he left here?" Bill looked up and said, "To your house."
Engineer/Economist/Lawyer-
An engineer, an economist and a lawyer were being interviewed for a position in a prestigious business firm. A whole series of difficult questions were asked of them,
but one wiry old director decided he would ask each one, "How much is 2 and 2?"
The engineer who was interviewed first excused himself and did some measurements and calculations and returned to the room and announced: "four""
The economist who was next, dashed to the library grabbed some great tomes,consulted a few agencies and a task force and returned with the answer: "four""
When they got to the lawyer, he drew the blinds, made certain no one was at the door, checked the telephone for bugs and in a conspiratorial tone asked: "How much do you want it to be?"
He is Just a Little Boy
He stands at the plate with his heart pounding fast.
The bases are loaded, the die has been cast.
Mom and Dad cannot help him, he stands all alone.
A hit at this moment, would send the team home.
The ball meets the plate, he swings and he misses.
There's a groan from the crowd, with some boos and some hisses.
A thoughtless voice cries, "Strike out the bum.
"Tears fill his eyes, the game's no longer fun.
So open your heart and give him a break,
For it's moments like this, a man you can make.
Please keep this in mind, when you hear someone forget,
He is just a little boy, and not a man yet.
