منٹو کے 'سياہ ماشے' سے ايک اقتباس

2008-09-12T15:35:00.001+06:00

'لوٹا ہوا مال برآمد کرنے کيلیے پوليس نے چھاپے مارنے شروع کيے تو لوگ ڈر کے مارے لوٹا ہوا مال رات کے اندھيرے ميں باہر پھينکنے لگے۔ کچھ ايسے بھی تھے جنہوں نے اپنا ذاتی مال بھی موقع پا کر اپنے سے عليحدہ کرديا تاکہ قانونی گرفت سے سرے سے ہی بچ سکيں۔ ايک آدمی کو بہت مشکل پيش آئي، اسکے پاس شکر کی دو بورياں تھيں جو اس نے لوٹی ہوئی تھيں۔ ايک بوری تو اس نے رات کو کنويں ميں پھينک دی ليکن جب دوسری بوری اٹھا کر کھوہ ميں پھينکنے لگا تو خود بھی ساتھ چلا گيا۔ شور سن کر لوگوں نے کھوہ رسياں ڈال کر آدمی کو باہر نکالا ليکن وہ باہر آکر مرگيا۔ دوسرے دن لوگوں نے استعمال کيلیے پانی نکالا تو وہ ميٹھا تھا، اسی رات اس آدمی کی قبر پر دیے جل رہے تھے اور "سبحان اللہ سبحان اللہ" کا ورد ہو رہا تھا۔

I thought you were bringing her back.

2008-09-09T10:56:00.000+06:00

A Ban bury senior citizen drove his brand new BMW Z3 convertible out of the car salesroom. Taking off down the motorway, he floored it to 90 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left. "Amazing!" he thought as he flew down the M40, enjoying pushing the pedal to the metal even more. Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a police car behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring.

"I can get away from him - no problem!" thought the elderly nutcase as he floored it to 110mph, then 120, then 130mph. Suddenly, he thought, "What on earth am I doing? I'm too old for this nonsense!" So he pulled over to the side of the road and waited for the police car to catch up with him.

Pulling in behind him, the police officer walked up to the driver's side of the BMW, looked at his watch and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 10 minutes. Today is Friday and I'm taking off for the weekend. If you can give me a reason why you were speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."

The man, looked very seriously at the policeman, and replied, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a policeman. I thought you were bringing her back."

"Have a good day, Sir," said the policeman

Airhostess

2008-09-09T10:35:00.000+06:00

A man was sitting in the bar at Heathrow Terminal 3 and noticed a really beautiful woman sitting next to him. He thought to himself: 'Wow, she's so gorgeous she must be an air hostess. I wonder which airline she works for. '

Hoping to pick her up, he leaned towards her and uttered the Delta Airline slogan, 'Love to fly and it shows?'

She gave him a blank, confused stare and he immediately thought to himself:' Well, she obviously doesn't work for Delta.'

A moment later, another slogan popped into his head, so he leaned towards her again and said, 'Something special in the air?'

She gave him the same confused look, and he mentally kicked himself, while scratching Singapore Airlines off the list.

He thought 'Perhaps she works for Thai Airways...' and said, 'Smooth as Silk?'

This time the woman turned on him and said, 'What the F*** do you want?' The man smiled, slumped back in his chair, and said - 'Ahhhhh, Finnair!'....

Power of Prayers

2008-09-09T10:31:00.000+06:00

In a small town, a person decided to open up his Bar business, which was right opposite to a Temple. The Temple & its congregation started a campaign to block the Bar from opening with petitions and prayed daily against his business.

Work progressed. However, when it was almost complete and was about to open a few days later, a strong lightning struck the Bar and it was burnt to the ground.

The temple folks were rather smug in their outlook after that, till the Bar owner sued the Temple authorities on the grounds that the Temple through its congregation & prayers was ultimately responsible for the demise of his bar shop, either through direct or indirect actions or means.

In its reply to the court, the temple vehemently denied all responsibility or any connection that their prayers were reasons to the bar shop's demise. As the case made its way into court, the judge looked over the paperwork at the hearing and commented:

'I don't know how I'm going to decide this case, but it appears from the paperwork, we have a bar owner who believes in the power of prayer and we have an entire temple and its devotees that doesn't.'

First Get The Dog Out Of Water

2008-09-03T08:42:00.004+06:00

ہم آمریت کو گالی دیتے ہیں اسکے اسباب رفع نہیں کرتے۔جيسا کہ
ہم دھوکے باز مذہبی و غیر مذہبی سیاستدانوں کے منہ سے آمریت کے خلاف تقریریں سن سن کر آمریت کو تو اپنا سب سے بڑا دشمن سمجھنے لگے ہیں، مگر اس آمریت کو جنم دینے والے اور اسے پروان چڑھانے والے (مذہبی و غیر مذہبی) کاروباری سیاستدانوں کو اپنا مسیحا سمجھتے رہتے ہیں، جنہوں نے ہمیشہ اسلام اور پاکستان کے نام پر اپنی دکانداری چمکائی ہے اوراپنی جیبیں بھرنے کو ہی اسلام اور جمہوریت ٹھہرایا ہوا ہے۔
ان مذہبی و غیر مذہبی سیاستدانوں کی لوٹ مار اور مفاد پرستی پر مبنی سیاست دیکھ کر لامحالہ فوجی افسران کے منہ میں بھی پانی بھر آتا ہے اور وہ یہ سوچنے پر مجبورہوتے ہیں کہ ہم کیوں پیچھے رہیں؟ چنانچہ پچھلے 60 سال میں وہ بھی بار بار میدانِ

عمل میں کودے اور بہتی گنگا میں ہاتھ دھونا شروع کر دیے۔

حقیقت یہ ہے کی یہ مذہبی و غیر مذہبی سیاستدان اور فوجی حکمران پاکستان میںمریکی مفادات کے سب سے بڑے محافظ بن چکے ہیں اور اپنی قوم کی مخلص رہنمائیکی بجائے اسلام اور پاکستان کی دشمن قوموں کے آگے سربسجود ہیں

مشرف حکومت نے اسلام دشمن طاقتوں کے اشاروں پر سرحد اور بلوچستان میںآگ

اور خون کی ہولی کھیل کر وہاں کے عوام کے دلوں سے پاکستان اور پاک فوج کی

محبت و احترام ختم کر کے اس میں نفرت کے بیج بو دیئے ہیں۔

دوسری طرف طالبان کے حامی مذہبی سیاستدان اس ایشو پر بھی صرف اور صرف اپنی سیاست چمکا رہے ہیں۔ طالبان کا دیا ہوا اسلام کا تصور اسلام کا بہت بڑا دشمن ہے مگر جو کچھ مشرف انتظامیہ کر رہی ہے وہ بھی اسلام اور پاکستان کے حق می تباہ کن ہے۔

امریکہ نے اس بار ہم پر بڑا خطرناک وار کیا ہے اور ہمیں ایک ایسے دوراہے پر لاکھڑا کیا ہے کہ دونوں طرف ہمارے دشمن کھڑے ہیں اور بھولی قوم دو دھڑوں میں بٹ چکی ہے۔ ایک دھڑا مشرف کو مخلص سمجھتے ہوئے طالبان کا مخالف ہے تو دوسرا طالبان اور طالبان نما دھوکے بازوں کی ہمدردی میں مشرف کو گالیاں دیتا دکھائی دیتا ہے۔حالانکہ

ہم سب جانتے ہیں کہ کتے کو کنوئیں سے نکالے بغیر خواہ ہم ایک ہزار ڈول پانی نکال باہر کریں، کنواں کبھی صاف نہیں ہو سکتا۔ یونہی اپنے سیاسی ماحول میں در آنے والی گندگی کو صاف کئے بغیر آمریت کا مستقلاً راستہ روکنا ممکن نہیں۔ گزشتہ

سال 60

میں ہم بار ہا یہ تجربہ دہرا چکے ہیں مگر اس سے سبق سیکھنے کو تیار نہیں ہوتے۔

ہم نے کبھی اپنے سیاستدانوں سے یہ نہیں پوچھا کہ پچھلے الیکشن میں وہ کیا منشورپیش کر کے جیتے تھے؟ اور انہوں نے اس پر کتنے فیصد عمل کیا؟ اگر ہم نے اپناوطیرہ تبدیل نہ کیا تو فطرت ہمیں کچل کر رکھ دے گی۔
حکیم الامت علامہ محمد اقبال نے اسی سلسلے میں فرمایا تھا

فطرت افراد سے اِغماض بھی کر لیتی ہے
کبھی کرتی نہیں ملت کے گناہوں کو معاف

ہمارا قومی بگاڑ اپنی حدیں پار کرتے ہوئے اس پوائنٹ تک جا پہنچا ہے کہ اب یہاںایک ہمہ گیر انقلاب کے بغیر کوئی تبدیلی ممکن نہیں۔ ہمیں ضرورت ہے کسی خمینی

کی، جو اس گندی سیاست کے گٹر میں اتر کر اس کی

ایسی صفائی کرے کہ پھر کسی آمر کو اس قوم پر شب خون مارنے کی جرات نہ ہو سکے اور ان کاروباری

مذہبی و غیرمذہبی سیاستدانوں کا ایسا صفایا کرے کہ قوم کی ان سے مستقل جان

چھوٹ جائے۔

علاوہ ازیں جہاں وہ ایک طرف دین کی روح سے واقف ہو تو دوسری طرف جدید دور

کے تقاضوں سے باخبر ہو کہ نہ صرف وہ عوامی مسائل کو حل کر سکے بلکہ اقوامِ

مغرب کی آنکھوں میں آنکھیں ڈال کر باغیرت لہجے میں ان سے بات کر سکے اور

ہمیں زندہ قوموں میں نمایاں مقام پر لا کھڑا کرے

حکیم الامت علامہ محمد اقبال نے فرمایا

بے معجزہ دنیا میں ابھرتی نہیں قومیں

جو ضربِ کلیمی نہیں رکھتا وہ ہنر کیا

Random acts of kindness

2008-08-22T18:43:00.000+06:00

As she stood in front of her 5th grade class on the very first day of school, she told the children an untruth. Like most teachers, she looked at her students and said that she loved them all the same.
However, that was impossible, because there in the front row, slumped in his seat, was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard.

Mrs. Thompson had watched Teddy the year before and noticed that he did not play well with the other children, that his clothes were messy and that he constantly needed a bath. In addition, Teddy could be unpleasant

It got to the point where Mrs. Thompson would actually take delight in marking his papers with a broad red pen, making bold X's and then putting a big "F" at the top of his papers.

At the school where Mrs. Thompson taught, she was required to review each child's past records and she put Teddy's off until last. However, when she reviewed his file, she was in for a surprise.

Teddy's first grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is a bright child with a ready laugh. He does his work neatly and has good manners... he is a joy to be around."

His second grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is an excellent student, well liked by his classmates, but he is troubled because his mother has a terminal illness and life at home must be a struggle."

His third grade teacher wrote, "His mother's death has been hard on him. He tries to do his best, but his father doesn't show much interest, and his home life will soon affect him if some steps aren't taken."

Teddy's fourth grade teacher wrote, "Teddy is withdrawn and doesn't show much interest in school. He doesn't have many friends and he sometimes sleeps in class."

By now, Mrs. Thompson realized the problem and she was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when her students brought her Christmas presents, wrapped in beautiful ribbons and bright paper, except for Teddy's.

His present was clumsily wrapped in the heavy, brown paper that he got from a grocery bag. Mrs. Thompson took pains to open it in the middle of the other presents. Some of the children started to laugh when she found a rhinestone bracelet with some of the stones missing, and a bottle that was
one-quarter full of perfume. But she stifled the children's laughter when she exclaimed how pretty the bracelet was, putting it on, and dabbing some of the perfume on her wrist.

Teddy Stoddard stayed after school that day just long enough to say, "Mrs. Thompson, today you smelled just like my Mom used to."

After the children left, she cried for at least an hour.

On that very day, she quit teaching reading, writing and arithmetic. Instead, she began to teach children. Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. As she worked with him, his mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he responded. By the end of the year, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class and, despite her lie that she would love all the children the same, Teddy became one of her "teacher's pets."

A year later, she found a note under her door, from Teddy, telling her that she was the best teacher he ever had in his whole life.

Six years went by before she got another note from Teddy. He then wrote that he had finished high school, third in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in life.

Four years after that, she got another letter, saying that while things had been tough at times, he'd stayed in school, had stuck with it, and would soon graduate from college with the highest of honors. He assured Mrs. Thompson that she was still the best and favorite teacher he had ever had in his whole life.

Then four more years passed and yet another letter came. This time he explained that after he got his bachelor's degree, he decided to go a little further. The letter explained that she was still the best and favorite teacher he ever had. But now his name was a little longer.... The letter was signed, Theodore F. Stoddard, MD.

The story does not end there. You see, there was yet another letter that spring. Teddy said he had met this girl and was going to be married. He explained that his father had died a couple of years ago and he was wondering if Mrs. Thompson might agree to sit at the wedding in the place that was usually reserved for the mother of the groom. Of course, Mrs. Thompson did. And guess what? She wore that bracelet, the one with several rhinestones missing. Moreover, she made sure she was wearing the Perfume that Teddy remembered his mother wearing on their last Christmas together.

They hugged each other, and Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson's ear, "Thank you Mrs. Thompson for believing in me. Thank you so much for making me feel important and showing me that I could make a difference."

Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back. She said, "Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn't know how to teach until I met you."

(For you that don't know, Teddy Stoddard is the Dr. at Iowa Methodist in Des Moines that has the Stoddard Cancer Wing.)

Warm someone's heart today. . . pass this along.

I love this story so very much, I cry every time I read it. Just try to make a difference in someone's life today? tomorrow? just "do it".

Random acts of kindness, I think they call it!

میں نے اکثر تمہارے قصیدے لکھے
اور آج اپنے نغموں سے شرمندہ ہوں
پابہ زنجیر یاروں سے نادم ہوں میں
اپنے گیتوں کی عظمت سے شرمندہ ہوں
سرحدوں نے کبھی جب پکارا تمہیں
آنسووں سے تمہیں الوداعیں کہیں
تم ظفرمند تو خير کیا لوٹتے
ہار کر بھی نہ جی سے اتارا تمہیں
جس جلال و رعونت سے وارد ہوئے
کس خجالت سے تم سوئے زنداں گئے
تیغ در دست وکف در دہاں آئے تھے
طوق در گردنوں پابہ جولاں گئے
سینہ چاکان مشرق بھی اپنے ہی تھے
جنکا خوں منہ کو ملنے کو تم آئے تھے
مامتائوں کی تقدیس کو لوٹنے
یا بغاوت کچلنے کو تم آئے تھے
انکی تقدیر تم کیا بدلتے مگر
انکی نسلیں بدلنے کو تم آئے تھے
جیسے برطانوی راج میں ڈوگرے
جیسے سفاک گورے تھے ویتنام میں
تم بھی ان سے ذرا مختلف تو نہیں
حق پرستوں پہ الزام انکے بھی تھے
وحشیوں سے چلن عام انکے بھی تھے
رائفلیں وردیاں نام انکے بھی تھے
آج سرحد سے پنجاب و مہران تک
تم نے مقتل سجائے ہیں کیوں غازیو
اتنی غارتگری کس کے ایما پر ہے
کس کی خاطر ہے یہ کشت و خوں غازیو
کس شہنشاہ عالی کا فرمان ہے
کس کے آگے ہو تم سرنگوں غازیو
آج شاعر پہ ہی قرض مٹی کا ہے
اب قلم ميں لہو ہے سیاہی نہیں۔
آج تم آئینہ ہو میرے سامنے
پیشہ ور قاتلو تم سپاہی نہیں

Why is a tie-breaker needed in gymnastics?

2008-08-19T18:13:00.000+06:00

I was not pleased to learn that Nastia Liukin had been denied a gold in the uneven parallel bars due to a tiebreaker. Judging in gymnastics is under enough fire -- see Sacramone, Alicia -- so no fuel need be added.

Here is my question -- why not two golds? Ties result in two medals of the same color in several different sports. Two silvers were awarded in track and field in the women's 100m dash. Why is it necessary to break a tie in a sport that is overly subjective in the first place? If Liukin and China's He Kexin had routines that were truly identical in difficulty and execution, I see no harm in saying that and giving them both gold. If it is absolutely necessary to break the tie, do as other sports do and continue the competition. Have a tiebreaking routine with three or four required elements. Gold should not come down to an obscure reason.

If I had a gold to give out, I would give it to Liukin, not for her routine, but for her response.

"It’s nothing I can control, and honestly, I can say it has been very fair to me, and I got the biggest gold medal of them all," said Liukin, winner of the women’s all-around gymnastics gold.

Classy and well-spoken yet she still points out that she won the crown jewel of the Olympics in gymnastics. Well done, Nastia.

Get Active Directory Users in C#.NET

2008-08-13T16:10:00.006+06:00

Active Directory is the primary user management system used by business and enterprise networks. It's basically just another kind of database, similar to MSSQL or Oracle, but with its own type of query language and protocol, which is based on LDAP.

Being able to query objects in Active Directory from within a C# ASP .NET web application can be a great knowledge tool. Many businesses who are moving their desktop applications to the web are asking for their .NET web applications to contain forms-based LDAP authentication and other hooks into Active Directory to process user objects.

The DirectoryEntry Object

The fundamental starting point for a .NET application using Active Directory is to include the System.DirectoryServices library. This contains the basic Active Directory library routines used to query. Communicating with Active Directory starts out with obtaining a DirectoryEntry object. This object is your root connection into the LDAP database, from which you can query for additional folders or objects. In order to obtain the DirectoryEntry object, you will need an Active Directory server address, username, and password. The server address can be an IP address or a complete LDAP path in the form LDAP://MyCompany.com/DC=MyCompany,DC=com

Connecting to Active Directory for the DirectoryEntry Object

Below is an example function to obtain a DirectoryEntry object for a fictional Active Directory server. Note the user of AuthenticationTypes.Secure to indicate we are making a secure authenticated connection to Active Directory. If you specify a regular user login, you will be restricted in what you may access. This can be handy to enforce role policies within your .NET web application. Alternatively, by connecting with an administrative account, you can perform administrative Active Directory functions such as modifying users, creating users, deleting users, etc.

using System.DirectoryServices;

private DirectoryEntry GetDirectoryObject()
{
DirectoryEntry oDE;
oDE = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://192.168.1.101", "administrator", "password", AuthenticationTypes.Secure);
return oDE;
}

Grabbing a User from Active Directory in C# ASP .NET

After connecting to Active Directory, you will want to query for an object, such as a user. The below code sample shows how to get a user from Active Directory based on their login name. Note that we use a specific Active Directory query language where clauses are included inside parenthesis. You can only query on certain fields. The below example uses the field "SAMAccountName", which is another word for "username" or "login" in Active Directory. Notice we also query for an objectClass of type "user". Another objectClass is of type "contact". After finding the DirectoryEntry, we create a new DirectoryEntry object pointing to the result and use our administrative login information in the connection (so that we can perform admin functions on the object).

private DirectoryEntry GetUser(string UserName)
{
DirectoryEntry de = GetDirectoryObject();
DirectorySearcher deSearch = new DirectorySearcher();
deSearch.SearchRoot = de;

deSearch.Filter = "(&(objectClass=user)(SAMAccountName=" + UserName + "))";
deSearch.SearchScope = SearchScope.Subtree;
SearchResult results = deSearch.FindOne();

if (!(results == null))
{
de = new DirectoryEntry(results.Path, "administrator", "password", AuthenticationTypes.Secure);
return de;
}
else
{
return null;
}
}

Modifying a User's Properties in Active Directory in C# .NET

Modifying the property of an Active Directory object in C# .NET is fairly simple. You access the DirectoryEntry's Properties field, modify the values as needed (be sure to check for null), and finally call CommitChanges to commit and save the changes. An example is shown below, which modifies the user's Display Name property (this is the name shown as their real name in Active Directory or the Global Address List).

DirectoryEntry de = GetUser("john.doe");
if (de != null)
{
if (de.Properties["displayName"] != null && de.Properties["displayName"].Value != null)
{
de.Properties["displayName"].Value = "John, Doe (Nice Guy)";
de.CommitChanges();
}
}

Note in the above code, if you do not call de.CommitChanges(), the changes will not be saved to Active Directory. Another important note is that any changes you make will not be instantly visible in applications that query Active Directory (such as Active Directory Users and Computers in the control panel). This is because the changes need to synchronize over the servers and throughout the network. Some networks may take between 5-30 minutes for changes to be visible.

Querying Multiple Users in Active Directory with C# ASP .NET

The above discussed querying for individual DirectoryEntry objects. However, if you wish to retrieve a list of objects, you will need to use the SearchResultCollection type combined with deSearch.FindAll instead of deSearch.FindOne.

SearchResultCollection MyUsers = GetAllUsers();
if (MyUsers != null && MyUsers.Count > 0)
{
foreach (SearchResult m_User in MyUsers)
{
DirectoryEntry de = m_User.GetDirectoryEntry();
}
}

Using Active Directory within a C# .NET Web Application can be a powerful tool for business and enterprise networks. By designing web applications to suit the enterprise world, more desktop applications can be ported to the web and empower organizations.

Some Pics and Thoghts of Partition.

2008-08-13T09:59:00.006+06:00

Pakistan & India are going to celebrate there 61st Independence day.Some time I wonder why we use the word independence when two separate countries came into being 60 years ago.
Ever wonder that Hindu & Muslim lived together in India for about 1000 years yet there is not a single incidence of communal violence that widespread the country.Brits ruled only for about 100 years by there famous principal "Divide & Rule".
Here are some heart touching pictures of the moment when India and Pakistan came into being.

Mountbatten arrives at Delhi airport; received by Nehru and Liaquat Ali. March 25, 1947. These guys become first Prime Ministers after partition.

The dead - Punjab, 1947

TRAIN TO PAKISTAN; India 1947. Trains packed with refugees - Hindus and Sikhs headed for India, and Muslims headed for Pakistan - were convenient targets for gangs of killers on both sides of the border. Inadequately protected 'Refugee Specials' were typically stopped, and the occupants butchered, several times in the course of the journey.

While celebrating we should remember all those who sacrifices their life, honor and belongings during the journey of blood and fire.

We are still under the governments who are using "Divide & Rule".

Your comments will be welcomed.Fell free to say any thing.Just respect others.

Thank You All

Very Funny-Doctor Joke

2008-08-12T17:00:00.002+06:00

Joe was moderately successful in his career, but as he got older
he was increasingly hampered by incredible headaches. After being
referred from one specialist to another, he finally came across a
doctor who solved the problem.

"The good news is I can cure your headaches. The bad news is that
it will require castration. You have a very rare condition which
causes your testicles to press up against the base of your spine.
The pressure creates one hell of a headache. The only way to
relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles."

Joe was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to
live for. He couldn't concentrate long enough to answer, but
decided he had no choice but to go under the knife.

When he left the hospital following the surgery, he felt like he
was missing an important part of himself. Just the same, as he
walked down the street, he realized that he felt like a different
person. He could make a new beginning and live a new life.

He walked past a men's clothing store and thought, "That's what I
need: A new suit." He entered the shop and told the salesman,

"I'd like a new suit."

The salesman eyed him briefly and said, "Let's see . . .Size 44
tall."

Joe laughed, "That's right, how did you know?"

"It's my job," the salesman replied. Joe tried on the suit. It
fit perfectly. As Joe admired himself in the mirror, the salesman
asked,

"How about a new shirt?"

Joe thought for a moment and then said, "Sure."

The salesman eyed Joe and said, "Let's see . . . 34 sleeve and .
. .16-and-a-half neck."

Joe was surprised, "That's right, how did you know?"

"It's my job."

Joe tried on the shirt, and it fit perfectly. As Joe adjusted the
collar in the mirror, the salesman asked,

"How about new shoes?"

Joe was on a roll and said, "Sure."

The salesman eyed Joe's feet and said, "Let's see . . .9-and-a-
half . . .wide.

Joe was astonished, "That's right, how did you know?"

"It's my job."

Joe tried on the shoes and they fit perfectly. Joe walked
comfortably around the shop and the salesman asked,

"How about a new hat?"

Without hesitating, Joe said, "Sure."

The salesman eyed Joe's head and said, "Let's see . . .7 and
5/8."

Joe was incredulous, "That's right, how did you know?"

"It's my job." The hat fit perfectly. Joe was feeling great, when
the salesman asked,

"How about some new underwear?"

Joe thought for a second and said, "Sure."

The salesman stepped back, eyed Joe's waist and said, "Let's see
. . .Size 36."

Joe laughed, "No, I've worn size 34 since I was 18 years old."

The salesman shook his head, "No. You can't wear a size 34. "It
would press your testicles up against the base of your spine and
give you one hell of a headache."
