A MIRROR OR A TWO-WAY GLASS??


How can you tell when you are in a room, restroom,motel etc. with a mirror or a 2-way glass?Here's how: I thought it was quite interesting! And Iknow in about 30 seconds you're going to do what I did and find the nearest mirror.Do you know how to determine if a mirror is 2-way ornot? A policewoman who travels all over the US andgives seminars and techniques for businesswomen passed this on.When we visit toilets, bathrooms, hotel rooms,changing rooms, etc., how many of you know for sure that the seemingly ordinary mirror hanging on the wallis a real mirror, or actually a 2-way mirror (i.e.,they can see you, but you can't see them)? There have been many cases of people installing 2-way mirrors in female changing rooms. It is very difficult topositively identify the surface by looking at it.So, how do we determine with any amount of certainty what type of mirror we are looking at?



JUST CONDUCT THIS SIMPLE TEST:

Place the tip of your fingernail against the reflective surface and if there is a GAP between your fingernail and the image of the nail, then it is GENUINE mirror. However, if your fingernail DIRECTLY TOUCHES the image of your nail, then BEWARE! IT IS A 2-WAY MIRROR! "No Space, Leave the Place" So remember, every time you see a mirror, do the "fingernail test." It doesn't cost you anything.

REMEMBER: No Space, Leave the Place.

Ladies: Share this with your girlfriends, sisters,daughters, and/or friends etc.

Men: Share this with your wives, daughters, daughters-in-law, mothers, girlfriends and/or friends.

STUDENT VS PROFESSOR



After having failed his exam in "Logistics and Organization" , a student goes and confronts his lecturer about it.

Student: "Sir, do you really understand anything about the subject?"

Professor: "Surely I must. Otherwise I would not be a professor!"

Student: "Great, well then I would like to ask you a question.

If you can give me the correct answer, I will accept my mark as is and go. If you however do not know the answer, I want you give me an "A" for the exam. "

Professor: "Okay, it's a deal. So what is the question?"

Student: "What is legal, but not logical, logical, but not legal, and neither logical, nor legal?"

Even after some long and hard consideration, the professor cannot give the student an answer, and therefore changes his exam mark into an "A", as agreed.

Afterwards, the professor calls on his best student and asks him the same question.


He immediately answers: "Sir, you are 63 years old and married to a 35 year old woman, which is legal, but not logical. Your wife has a 25 year old lover, which is logical, but not legal. The fact that you have given your wife's lover an "A", although he really should have failed, is neither legal, nor logical."

HOW FRIENDSHIP BREAK?


Both Friends Will Think the Other Is Busy
And Will Not Contact Thinking It May Be Disturbing
As Time Passes
Both Will Think Let the Other Contact
After That each Will Think Why I Should Contact First?
Here Your Love Will Be Converted To Hate
Finally Without Contact the Memory Becomes Weak
They Forget Each Other.
So Keep In Touch With All and Pass This TO All Your Friends...
I Don’t Want To One Of This Kind.
