Japan Train Leaves 20 Seconds Early Demands National Apology


Armstrong Economics Blog/Japan

Re-Posted Nov 21, 2017 by Martin Armstrong

When I would stay in Japan, I loved the culture. The politeness and honesty in the streets were awesome. They are also extremely precise. What has shocked many who are unfamiliar with Japan is that the Metropolitan Intercity Railway Co. issued a public statement expressing that they were deeply sorry for the Tsukuba Express train linking Tokyo and its northern suburbs pulled out of Minami-Nagareyama Station at 9:44:20 instead of 9:44:40, which was 20 seconds early.

“We deeply apologize for causing a tremendous nuisance to customers,” the company said.

HOW THE INTERNET STARTED, ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE!


We all need to know how the internet really started — RIGHT?? (in spite of what he said, it wasn’t Al Gore)
 
Please do not Google or check this with Snopes.  They will lie to you.  Trust me! 
 
In ancient Israel, it came to pass that a trader by the name of Abraham Com did take unto himself a healthy young wife by the name of Dorothy.   And Dot Com was a comely woman, large of breast, broad of shoulder and long of leg.  Indeed, she was often called Amazon Dot Com. 
 
And she said unto Abraham, her husband, “Why dost thou travel so far from town to town with thy goods when thou canst trade without ever leaving thy tent?” 
 
And Abraham did look at her as though she were several saddle bags short of a camel load, but simply said, “How, dear?” 
 
And Dot replied, “I will place drums in all the towns and drums in between to send messages saying what you have for sale, and they will reply telling you who hath the best price. The sale can be made on the drums and delivery made by Uriah’s Pony Stable (UPS).” 
 
Abraham thought long and decided he would let Dot have her way with the drums.  And the drums rang out and were an immediate success..  Abraham sold all the goods he had at the top price, without ever having to move from his tent. 
 
To prevent neighboring countries from overhearing what the drums were saying, Dot devised a system that only she and the drummers knew.  It was known as Must Send Drum Over Sound (MSDOS), and she also developed a language to transmit ideas and pictures – Hebrew to the People (HTTP). 
 
And the young men did take to Dot Com’s trading as doth the greedy horsefly take to camel dung.  They were called Nomadic Ecclesiastical Rich Dominican Sybarites, or NERDS.  And lo, the land was so feverish with joy at the new riches and the deafening sound of drums that no one noticed that the real riches were going to that enterprising drum dealer, Brother William of Gates, who bought off every drum maker in the land. Indeed he did insist on drums to be made that would work only with Brother Gates’ drum heads and drumsticks. 
 
And Dot did say, “Oh, Abraham, what we have started is being taken over by others.” And Abraham looked out over the Bay of Ezekiel, or eBay as it came to be known.  He said, “We need a name that reflects what we are.” 
 
And Dot replied, “Young Ambitious Hebrew Owner Operators.”  “YAHOO,” said Abraham. And because it was Dot’s idea, they named it YAHOO Dot Com. 
 
Abraham’s cousin, Joshua, being the young Gregarious Energetic Educated Kid (GEEK) that he was, soon started using Dot’s drums to locate things around the countryside.
 
It soon became known as God’s Own Official Guide to Locating Everything (GOOGLE). 
 
That is how it all began. And that’s the truth. 
 
You know I would not make up this stuff — RIGHT??

KOMMONSENTSJANE – DO YOU HAVE AN AWESOME ATTITUDE?


Good principles to live by especially today.

Do you have an awesome attitude!

As the renewal of Spring and Easter is upon us this seemed appropriate.

How many of us have this AWESOME attitude?  This is something we should all think about from time to time to remember what a short time we really spend on earth.  It seems just a few years ago we were children.

During my growing up years, I dreamed in 20-year segments – like, when I was 20 I thought where and what will I be doing in 20 years and, my goodness, what a wonderful ride it has been and never once have I been disappointed, even with setbacks, there was always a reason for them, and never once looking back was I disappointed – always seeing and thinking – whew – so that was the reason!

And now, the rest of the story!

A 92-year-old, petite, well-poised…

KOMMONSENTSJANE – Friday funnies! — Fellowship of the Minds


A little extra is very good … 🙂

kommonsentsjane's avatarkommonsentsjane

If I had a dollar for every woman that found me unattractive, they would eventually find me attractive. A recent study has found that woman who carry a little extra weight, live longer than the men who mention it. My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. We’ll see about that. Money talks …but […]

Whispering in the library

Touché

A man was looking for a place to sit in a crowded university library.

manwhisp

He asked a girl: “Do you mind if I sit beside you?”
The girl replied, in a loud voice “NO, I DON’T WANT TO SPEND THE NIGHT WITH
YOU!”
All the people in the library started staring at the man, who was deeply
embarrassed and moved to another table.

After a couple of minutes, the girl walked quietly to the man’s table and
said with a laugh: “I study psychology, and I know what a man is thinking;
I bet you felt embarrassed, right?
“The man responded in a loud voice: “$500 FOR ONE NIGHT? ….. I`M NOT
PAYING YOU THAT MUCH!”

All the people in the library looked at the girl in shock.
The man whispered to her: “I study law, and I know how…
