Dear Torsten
I really enjoy reading Alan’s essay. He is unbelievable man. How could he have such an ability to express his ideas to reach his aim? Really incredible! I wish I had the same ability to express my ideas like Alan’s. He started by defining what is laughing... then he gave us new expressions concerning the word laugh. After that, he took us away to tell us an old story about laughing to prove the validity of his saying. Oah God, he is a genius man indeed.
Concerning your question dear about, whether it is alright for the teacher to have a bit sense of humour or not, I would say yes, it is important for the teacher especially if he/she is a teacher of grammar or phonetics to have a sense of humour to help his/her students enjoy the lesson. This bit of Laughing can shade the atmosphere of warmth inside the class and makes the student feels as if he/she is at home and among his/her family. This sense of humour can break the barrier of fear and fatigue that any student may have and makes the lessons enjoyable.
I hope I answered your question dear

With respect and honour

Dear Friends,
Now let’s enjoy hearing one of the jokes

A plane leaves Los Angeles airport under the control of a Jewish captain. His new co-pilot is Chinese, and an awkward silence between the two seems to indicate a mutual dislike.
Once they reach cruising altitude, the Jewish captain activates the auto pilot, leans back in his seat, and mutters, "I don't like Chinese."
"No benefit at all from Chinese?" asks the co-pilot, "why not?"
"You people bombed Pearl Harbour, that's why!"
"No, no," the co-pilot protests, "Chinese not bomb Peahl Hahbah! That Japanese, not Chinese."
"Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese... doesn't matter, you're all alike!"
There are a few minutes of silence. “No benefit at all from Jews!" the co-pilot suddenly announces.
"Why not?" asks the captain.
"Jews sink Titanic."
"Jews didn't sink the Titanic!" exclaims the captain; "It was an iceberg!"
"Iceberg, Goldberg, Greenberg, Rosenberg, no matter... all same."

MAN OF THE HOUSE

A husband had just finished reading a new book entitled, "You Can Be THE Man of Your House."

He stormed to his wife in the kitchen and announced, "From now on, you need to know that I am the man of this house and my word is Law.

You will prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, and when I'm done eating my meal, you will serve me a scrumptious dessert.. After dinner, you are going to go upstairs with me and we will have the kind of sex that I want!

Afterwards, you are going to draw me a bath so I can relax. You will wash my back and towel me dry and bring me my robe. Then, you will massage my feet and hands.

Then tomorrow, guess who's going to dress me and comb my hair?"

The wife replied, "The funeral director would be my first guess."

Laughing

Wait until you read this.

Quote:
Saint Trotolian says:

"Woman is the Satan's pathway to a man's heart. Woman pushes man to the "Cursed Tree." Woman violates God's laws and distorts his picture (i.e. man's picture).

Wieth Knudesen, a Danish writer, illustrated the woman's status in the middle ages saying:

"According to the Catholic faith, which considered the woman as a second class citizen, very little care and attention was given to her."

In 1586 a conference was held in France to decide whether women should be considered as human beings or not. The conference came to a conclusion that:

"Woman is a human being, but she is created to serve man."


Now, that is a real joke.

If Jesus - peace be upon him, was still around at that time, I think he would have smacked those saints' head and talked some sense into them.

Hi Nina & Bill,
It is said that God created the universe at first and rested.
Then He created man and rested.
Later,He created woman.But since then,neither God nor man rested.
OK!I'm just kidding.I don't or daren't really mean it.
Heaven only knows the philosophy of creation,and it's beyond us to talk about this matter very simply. Sometimes we want to be in a very good humour.I think that's about all.
Regards,

It is said that the conclusion of that conference was in effect until 1983.

When I imagine them sitting and discussing whether women should be considered as human beings, I laugh like a drain!

Take care,

Speaking of male chauvenists (hope I spelled that right):

How are a blonde and an airplane alike?

-- Both have a cockpit.

haloo guys. i think many misunderstood about women, women were not created to serve man, and all of us we know its human created by God like us (men) she gave brith to all of us,they are our mumm, sisters, and wife, and dont lie on jessus he didnot say that but the priests and the pops those lived just 1000 ago had changed the faith of the human, and they made that (ladies are the kids of allah) oh God forbide, its a shame and less geniousness to tell same thing that you haven't its facts, only what you have are scripts written just decages ago, and truelly many are fake and they expended propoganda against jesuss, hey think how women serves you, its a creature like you, and all of us both men and women were created only the worship of God, ony and ony, ask your self how you can say ;you mumm (you are my slave) oh think,the brian should work, its not quite possible to belief every think you were toldl.

Hi everybody,
Here is a joke from Turkey to "a bit of laugh":
One day Dursun paid a visit to Tamal. He was somersaulting after some running and hopping on the spot. "Is that your way of losing weight?" he asked. "No. Not at all," Tamal said, and then explained, panting: "I had taken a spoonful of cough syrup before I noticed the warning. It says here on the bottle, 'shake well before use.'"

A penguin walked into the Post Office and asked if they had any fish.

The Postmaster said, " This is a Post Office, we don't sell fish here." The penguin left.

He returned three further times and asked the same question.

He came in yet again and asked for fish. The Postmaster was very angry and said, " If you come in here one more time and ask that question, I'll nail your feet to the floor. "

The next day the penguin returned. " Yes, " said the Postmaster.

" Do you have any nails ?" said the penguin. " No, " said the Postmaster.

" Good, " said the penguin. " Do you have any fish ?".
