Sardar : The Great

George Bush was sitting in his office wondering whom to invade next when his telephone rang.
"Hallo, Mr. Bush!" a heavily accented voice said, "This is Gurmukh from Phagwara, District Kapurthala, Punjab. I am ringing to inform you that we are officially declaring the war on you!"

"Well, Gurmukh," Bush replied, "This is indeed important news! How big is your army"
"Right now," said Gurmukh, after a moment's calculation, "there is myself, my cousin Sukhdev, my next door neighbour Harjit, and the whole kabaddi team from the gurudwara. That makes eight of us"
Bush paused. "I must tell you, Gurmukh that I have one million men in my army waiting to move on my command."
"Arrey O, main kya.. ," said Gurmukh. "I'll have to ring you back!"

Sure enough, the next day, Gurmukh called again.
"Mr. Bush, it is Gurmukh, I'm calling from Phagwara STD, the war is still on! We have managed to get some more inphantry equipment!"
"And what equipment would that be, Gurmukh," Bush asked.
"Well, we have two combines, a donkey and Harjit's tractor."
Bush sighed. "I must tell you, Gurmukh, that I have 16,000 tanks and 14,000 armored personnel carriers. Also, I've increased my army to 1-1/2 million since we last spoke."
"Oh teri ...." said Gurmukh. "I'll have to get back to you."

Sure enough, Gurmukh rang again the next day.
"Mr. Bush, the war is still on! We have managed to get ourselves airborne.... .. We've modified Harjit's tractor by adding a couple of shotguns, sticking on some wings and the pind's generator. Four school pass boys from Malpur have also joined us as."
Bush was silent for a minute and then cleared his throat. "I must tell you, Gurmukh, that I have 10,000 bombers and 20,000 fighter planes. My military complex is surrounded by laser-equipped, surface-to-air missile sites. And since we last spoke, I've increased my army to TWO MILLION!"
"Tera pala hove...." said Gurmuk, "I'll have to ring you back."

Sure enough, Gurmukh called again the next day.
"Kiddan, Mr. Bush! I am sorry to tell you that we have had to call off the war."
"I'm sorry to hear that," said Bush. "Why the sudden change of heart," may I ask?
"Well," said Gurmukh, "we've all had a long chat over a couple of lassi's, and decided there's no way we can feed two million prisoners of war!" ...!!!!!!!

Clever And Effective Hidden Gun Safe Ideas

What care do I have to take with my baby's skin?

Your baby's skin is thinner than yours and is oilier because of   Vernix Caseosa , which is an oily-looking substance that covers his skin at birth. This matter changes in the first weeks until it becomes the soft skin that we usually associate with that of babies. Like the rest of the organs, the skin also matures, so it is essential to take more care during the first stage. Moistening and lubrication are key, as a good cream can replace the Vernix that was lost and create a protective barrier against environmental damage. Make sure you never use adult products, as they are made with stronger and more aggressive elements. We leave you other crucial tips for caring for your baby's skin : 1. Your clothes must be carefully washed with specific and mild detergents so that they do not irritate your skin. 2.
