A French teacher was explaining to her class that in French, unlike English,
nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.
"House" is feminine - "la maison."
"Pencil" is masculine - "le crayon."
A student asked, "What gender is a 'computer'?"
Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups- male
and female - and asked them to decide for themselves whether"computer"
should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four
reasons for their recommendation.
The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the
feminine gender ("la computer"), because:
1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;
2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is
incomprehensible to everyone else;
3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for possible later
review; and
4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half
your salary on accessories for it.

One day, there was a catastrophic event that caused all living creatures on Earth
to die. To sort things out, everyone went to heaven.
God came and said, "I want the men to form two lines. One line for the men who
ruled their women on Earth and the other line for the men who were ruled by their
women. Also, I want all the women to go with St. Peter." With that said and done,
the next time God looked, the women were gone and there were two lines.
The line of men who were ruled by their women was 1,000 miles long, and in the
line of men who ruled their women, there was only one man.
God became angry and said, "You men should be ashamed of yourselves. I
created you in my image and you were all whipped by your mates. Look at the
only one of my sons who stood up and made me proud. Learn from him! Tell
them, my son, how did you manage to be the only one in this line?"

One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a river, his axe
fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord appeared and asked,
"Why are you crying?" The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water,
and he needed the axe to make his living.
The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden axe.
"Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.
The woodcutter replied, "No."
The Lord again went down and came up with a silver axe. "Is this your axe?" the
Lord asked. Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."
The Lord went down again and came up with an iron axe.
"Is this your axe?" the Lord asked. The woodcutter replied, "Yes."
The Lord was pleased with the man's honesty and gave him all three axes to
keep, and the woodcutter went home happy.
Some time later the woodcutter was walking with his wife along the riverbank,
and his wife fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord again appeared and
asked him, "Why are you crying?"
"Oh Lord, my wife has fallen into the water!"
The Lord went down into the water and came up with Madhuri Dixit.
The moral of this story is whenever a man lies, it is for a good and honorable
reason, and for the benefit of others.
