La Vie a Paris


Here another collage with images from Paris, a collage that tries to show the people of Paris... well, maybe most of them were tourists just like me! But it's fun walking on Paris's streets...

Today's joke:

Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House in D.C., one from Illinois, one from Tennessee and a third one from Kentucky. They all go with a White House official to examine the fence. The Tennessee contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil:
- Well, he says, I figure the job will run about $900: $400 for materials, $400 for my crew and $100 profit for me.
The Kentucky contractor also does some measuring and figuring, then says:
- I can do this job for $700: $300 for materials, $300 for my crew and $100 profit for me.
The Illinois contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans over to the White House official and whispers:
- $2,700.
The official, incredulous, whispers back:
- You didn't even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?
The Illinois contractor whispers back:
- $1000 for me, $1000 for you, and we hire that guy from Kentucky to fix the fence!
- Done! replies the government official. And that my friends, is how it all works

Riders Wanted


Hello everyone!
Here's another shot from Paris (many thanks for your comments and favs on my Armani thing!), shot that I took while wandering on its beautiful streets.
I am kinda disappointed this morning... my freaky external memory just died, and I'm afraid I lost everything what's on it... but even so, here's another joke!

A man was just waking up from anesthesia after surgery, and his wife was sitting by his side. His eyes fluttered open and he said:
- You're beautiful!
Then he fell asleep again. His wife had never heard him say that before, so she stayed by his side. A few minutes later his eyes fluttered open and he said:
- You're cute.
The wife was disappointed because instead of "beautiful", it was now "cute".
She asked:
- What happened to "beautiful"?
The man replied:
- The drugs are wearing off!

Main Street


This is a shot taken in downtown Houston, Texas. I went down there especially for the tramway... I always loved tramways, they're cool!

P.S. I wanna thank y'all for your kind comments and rating on my yesterday's post, Golden, and also I apologize for not being too active, but as well as today, yesterday I barely could open the site's page... it takes about two minutes til it opens...
