Fwd: Scientists at Work
After digging to a depth of 100 meters last year, Russian scientists
found traces of copper wire dating back 1000 years, and came to the
conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network one thousand
years ago.
So, not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed, American scientists dug
200 meters and the headlines in the US papers read:
' US scientists have found traces of 2000 year old optical fibers, and have
concluded that their ancestors already had advanced high-tech digital
telephone 1000 years earlier than the Russians.'
One week later, Indian daily newspapers reported the following:

After digging as deep as 500 meters, Indian scientists have found
absolutely nothing. They have concluded that 5000 years ago, their ancestors
were already using Bluetooth and Wireless technology.** *

Fwd: Age and skill will always overcome youth and treachery!
One day an old Dog starts chasing rabbits and before long, discovers that he's lost. Wandering about, he notices a Lion heading rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.
The old Dog thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in deep trouble now!" Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones .. with his back to the approaching Lion. Just as the
lion is about to leap, the old Dog exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious Lion! I wonder, if there are any more around here?" Hearing this, the young Lion halts his attack in mid- strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew!," says the Lion,"That was close! That old Dog nearly had me!"
Meanwhile, a Rabbit who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the Lion. So, off he goes.
The Rabbit soon catches up with the panther, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the Lion. The young Lion is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here, Rabbit, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that Stupid old Dog!" Now, the old Dog sees the Lion coming with the Rabbit on his back and thinks, "What am I going to do now?," but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old Dog says... "Where's that stupid Rabbit? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another Lion!"
Moral of this story...
Don't mess with the old dogs... Age and skill will
always overcome youth and treachery! (^^,)
