    Women

    1. It is important to find a woman that cooks and cleans.

    2. It is important to find a woman that makes good money.

    3. It is important to find a woman that likes to have sex.

    4. It is important that these three women never meet.

     

    Spelling Checkers

    I have a spelling checker
    I disk covered four my PC.
    It plane lee marks four my revue
    Miss steaks aye can knot see.

    Eye ran this poem threw it.
    Your sure real glad two no.
    Its very polished in its weigh,
    My checker tolled me sew.

    A checker is a blessing.
    It freeze yew lodes of thyme.
    It helps me right awl stiles two reed,
    And aides me when aye rime.

    Each frays comes posed up on my screen
    Eye trussed too bee a joule.
    The checker pours o'er every word
    To cheque sum spelling rule.

    Bee fore wee rote with checkers
    Hour spelling was inn deck line,
    Butt now when wee dew have a laps,
    Wee are not maid too wine.

    And now bee cause my spelling
    Is checked with such grate flare,
    There are know faults in awl this peace,
    Of nun eye am a wear.

    To rite with care is quite a feet
    Of witch won should be proud,
    And we? mussed dew the best wee can,
    Sew flaws are knot aloud.

    That's why eye brake in two averse
    Cuz Eye dew want too please.
    Sow glad eye yam that aye did bye
    This soft wear four pea seas.

    From The Economist Style Guide

    Never use a metaphor, simile or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.

    Never use a long word where a short one will do.

    If it is possible to cut out a word, always cut it out.

    Never use the passive where you can use the active.

    Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.

    Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.

    Marketing

    You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say, "I'm fantastic in bed." That's Direct Marketing.

    You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl. One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says, "He's fantastic in bed." That's Advertising.

    You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get her telephone number. The next day you call and say, "Hi, I'm fantastic in bed." That's Telemarketing.

    You're at a party and see a gorgeous girl. You get up and straighten your tie; you walk up to her and pour her a drink. You open the door for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her a ride, and then say, "By the way, I'm fantastic in bed." That's Public Relations.

    You're at a party and see a gorgeous girl. She walks up to you and says, "I hear you're fantastic in bed." That's Brand Recognition.

    And...

    - Have you noticed, women have two complaints: Nothing to wear and not enough closet space for it.

    - A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, draws a gun and fires. As he is on his way out, the waiter asks him why. The panda hands him a badly punctuated wildlife manual. The waiter reads, "Panda: Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

    - Nancy goes to the gynaecologist and he examines her. He says, "You have acute vaginitis."  She says, "Thank you."
