FANTASTIC WEEKEND . . .

-
A young man walked into a jeweler's shop late one Friday, with a beautiful young lady on his side. "I'm looking for a special ring for my girlfriend" he said. The jeweler looks through his stock, and takes out an outstanding ring priced at £4500. "I don't think you understand... I want something very unique", he said.
The jeweler went and fetched his special stock from the safe. "Here's one stunning ring at £33000." The girls' eyes sparkled, and the young man said that he would take it. "How are you paying?"
"I'll pay by cheque, but of course you would want to make sure that everything is in order, so I'll write a cheque and you can phone the bank on Monday and I'll collect the ring on Monday afternoon".
Monday morning a very irate jeweler phones the man. "You lied there's no money in that account." "I know, but can you imagine what a FANTASTIC WEEKEND I had ?"

Helmut didn't realise it at the time, but he had just invented the burger. But mankind wasn't satisfied with the burger. No, man is never satisfied.  Since that day we have continued to improve, refine, enhance and augment. We have continued to experiment and explore, to add pickles and fried onions, to push the burger boundaries. As most of my readers know I am fascinated about food but some days I feel like having some less sophisticated stuff and when it comes to burgers(especially if you do have a large appetite) The King Of Homemade hea...

Steve Jobs: From a college dropout to heading an over $350 billion Apple empire, Steve Jobs dramatically transformed the worlds of personal computing, music and mobile phones, ushering in a new digital era. Yesterday the world lost a visionary and a most innovative and creative entrepreneur who always stood up every time he failed. A man who really changed the world. We are gonna miss you Steve! You touched an ugly world of technology and made it beautiful. "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.'' "Stay hungry, stay foolish." "Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me … Going to bed at night saying we've done something wonderful … that's what matters to me." Steve Jobs It’s time to say goodbye to an iCon: Steve Jo...
