Mars Company has been producing M&M Chocolate Candies since 1941. Various rumors have since been attached to different colors of the candy: the green ones are an aphrodisiac; if the last candy out of a bag is red, make a wish and it will come true; if the last candy out of a bag is yellow, you should call in sick and stay home; orange M&Ms are good luck, but brown ones are bad luck. M&M/MARS notes that consumers, not the company, developed all these rumors. Continuare…
Compania Mars produce bomboane de ciocolata M&M din 1941. Zvonuri diverse au fost asociate diferitelor culori ale bomboanelor: cele verzi ar fi afrodisiace; daca ultima bomboana din punga este rosie, pune-ti o dorinta si ti se va indeplini; daca este una galbena, da telefon la birou, anunta ca nu te simti bine si stai acasa; cele portocalii aduc noroc, iar cele maron, ghinion. M&M/MARS spune ca aceste povesti sunt opera consumatorilor, iar compania nu are nici o legatura cu ele. Continuare…
I ended up with an older woman at a club last night. She looked OK for a 61 year-old. In fact, she wasn’t too bad at all, and I found myself thinking that she probably had a really hot daughter.
We drank a bit, and had a bit of a snuggle, and then she asked if I’d ever had a Sportsman’s Double. “What’s that?” I asked.
“It’s a mother & daughter threesome,” she said.
I said “No” excitedly. We drank a bit more, then she says that tonight was “my lucky night”.
I went back to her place. She put on the hall light and shouted upstairs:
“Mum, you still awake?”
Micul Thomas, cel mai bun elev din clasa o intreaba pe invatatoare daca poate sa-i vorbeasca dupa ore. Ea accepta.

Directorul scolii este informat si il intreaba pe Thomas daca vrea sa dea niste teste. Thomas accepta fara sa ezite si testarea incepe.
- Sa vedem Thomas: 3×4? Continuare…
Anterior alegerilor prezidentiale din 2000, schema culorilor nu era universal recunoscuta ca reprezentand partidele politice din SUA. Schema culorilor de baza a devenit raspandita odata cu aparitia televiziunii color in anii ’60 si aproape omniprezentelor ziare cu reclamele lor. O schema de trei color – rosu, alb si albastru, culorile drapelului American – facea sens, iar a treia culoare, albul, folositoare pentru ca putea arata statele indecise in sondaje. Inca demult, cea mai comuna – desi din nou, neuniversala – schema culorilor propunea sa foloseasca rosu pentru democrati si albastru pentru republicani. Continuare…
Prior to the 2000 presidential election, there was no universally recognized color scheme to represent political parties in the US. Color-based schemes became widespread with the adoption of color television in the 1960s and nearly ubiquitous with the advent of color in newspapers. A three color scheme — red, white and blue, the colors of the U.S. flag — makes sense, and the third color, white, is useful in depicting maps showing states that are “undecided” in the polls and in election-night television coverage.

Stiam la un moment dat un banc … Care este asemanarea dintre ingineri si catei … si unii si altii au priviri inteligente dar nu se pot exprima
Asta – cred – era bancul, sper sa-l fi tinut bine minte; in imaginile urmatoare inginerii si cateii fac iar echipa: iata o masinuta ce va tine catelul ocupat cand ramane singur acasa. Geniala! Vreau si eu una pentru Snoopy! Continuare…
