Isso e' muito engracado!!!

A luva e a calcinha

Um jovem estudante, ao passar em uma loja em São Paulo, resolveu comprar um belo par de luvas para enviar a sua jovem namorada, ainda virgem, de família tradicional mineira, a quem muito respeitava.
Na pressa de embrulhar, a moça da loja cometeu um "pequeno" engano, trocando as luvas por uma CALCINHA!
O jovem não notando a troca, enviou o presente via SEDEX junto com a seguinte carta:

São Paulo, 30 de maio de 2004.

Querida,

Sabendo que dia 12 próximo é o Dia dos Namorados, resolvi te mandar este presentinho. Embora eu saiba que você não costuma usar (pelo menos eu nunca te vi usando uma), acho que
vai gostar da cor e do modelo, pois a moça da loja experimentou e pelo que vi, ficou ótima.
Apesar de um pouco larga na frente, ela disse que é melhor assim do que muito apertada, pois a mão entra com mais facilidade e os dedos podem se movimentar à vontade.
Depois de usá-la, é bom virar do avesso e colocar um pouco de talco para evitar aquele odor desagradável.
Espero que goste, pois vai cobrir aquilo que breve irei pedir à teu pai, além de proteger o local em que colocarei aquilo que você tanto sonha.
Um beijo (no lugar onde você irá usar o meu presente)

PS: Não espere eu retornar para estreá-la. Quero que todos os meus amigos vejam você com ela. E depois esfregue na cara daquelas suas amigas invejosas, pois eu nunca vi nenhuma delas usando nada igual.


I thought it was too funny to not be shared =)

A Tale...

The Cracked Pot

A water bearer in India had two large pots, each hung on the end of a pole which he carried across his neck. One of the pots was perfectly made and never leaked. The other pot had a crack in it and by the time the water bearer reached his master's house it had leaked much of its water and was only half full.

For a full two years this went on daily, with the bearer delivering only one and a half pots full of water to his master's house. Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments. But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection, and miserable that it was able to accomplish only half of what it had been made to do.

After two years of what it perceived to be a bitter failure, it spoke to the water bearer one day by the stream. "I am ashamed of myself, and I want to apologize to you." "Why?" asked the bearer. "What are you ashamed of?" "I have been able, for these past two years, to deliver only half my load because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your master's house. Because of my flaws, you have to do all of this work, and you don't get full value from your efforts," the pot said.

The water bearer felt sorry for the old cracked pot, and in his compassion he said, "As we return to the master's house, I want you to notice the beautiful flowers along the path."

Indeed, as they went up the hill, the old cracked pot took notice of the sun warming the beautiful wild flowers on the side of the path, and this cheered it some. But at the end of the trail, it still felt bad because it had leaked out half its load, and so again the pot apologized to the bearer for its failure.

The bearer said to the pot, "Did you notice that there were flowers only on your side of your path, but not on the other pot's side? That's because I have always known about your flaw, and I took advantage of it. I planted flower seeds on your side of the path, and every day while we walk back from the stream, you've watered them. For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate my master's table. Without you being just the way you are, he would not have this beauty to grace his house."

Each of us has our own unique flaws. We're all cracked pots. But if we will allow it, God will use our flaws to grace his table. In God's great economy, nothing goes to waste. Don't be afraid of your flaws. Acknowledge them, and you too can be the cause of beauty. Know that in our weakness we find our strength.
