A new guy starts working at the local mental asylum.
After giving him some general indications, the director tells him to ask any question he may have.
-Yes, director, I have one. How do we know if a patient is cured and ready to leave the asylum?
-Well, says the director，once per year, we gather some of them and ask them a question. If they answer it correctly, then they are cured and are free to go.
The director gathers three patients for a demonstration.
-So, resident 121, what is six times six?
-One thousand? says the first one.
-Well no, that’s another year here for you.
The director proceeds to ask the second patient the same question.
-Well, the answer is February.
-My God… No, no it isn’t. You’re staying here one more year.
Finally, the director asks the question to the third patient.
-What is six times six?
-Obviously it 36.
The director cheers the third patient and proceeds to comunicate the asylum staff he’s ready to leave. The new guy asks the patient before he leaves:
-Good job answering correctly. How did you know it?
-Well, it was easy. I divided one thousand by February..
As the world rushed to congratulate India on becoming the fourth country to do a soft landing on the moon, some journalists suffered from foot-in-mouth-itis.
For instance, Patrick Christy of GB News asked India to return the Euro 2.3 billion aid it got.
Here is our response:
India does not take aid from Britain any more. The aid that is given from British NGOs to Indian NGOs is for the welfare work of those individual NGOs. Much of it goes towards conversion and missionary activities
In 2014, the New York times ran a cartoon when India become the fought country to successfully put a Mars Orbitor in position.
