My cousin Chou is always complaining about his job. He should be happy! He works outdoors and he gets to sit down on the job. But you should judge for yourself.

Photographer’s Ethics Test
What would you do? This test has only one question, but it's a very
important one. Please don't answer before giving it some serious thought.
By giving an honest answer you will gain great insights into your ethical
makeup.
The test features a completely fictional situation, where you will have to
make a decision. Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet
spontaneous.
Please scroll down s-l-o-w-l-y – this is important to work correctly.
You're in Miami, Florida.
There is chaos all around you, caused by a hurricane and the resultant
flooding.
You are a news photographer. You are trying to shoot very impressive photos.
You are floating in a life raft in the middle of this great disaster.
The situation is nearly hopeless.
There are houses and people floating around you.
Nature is showing all its destructive power.
Suddenly you see two people floating by, clinging to a 2X4.
They are fighting for their lives, trying to stay afloat.
You move closer . . . .
The two men look familiar. . . .
Suddenly you know who they are: President George W. Bush and Senator John Kerry!!!
Just then you notice that the raging waters are about to suck them both into
a giant culvert.
Realistically, you have only two options.
You can try to save them OR you can take the best photo of your life.
You can possibly save the life of George W. Bush and John Kerry, or you
can shoot a Pulitzer Prize-winning photo.
Here's the decision you must make: (Please give an honest answer)
Will you use color film or black-and-white?
"Who's on First?" a high-tech update
Abbott: Super Duper Computer Store. Can I help you?
Costello: I'm setting up an office in my den and I'm thinking about buying a computer.
Abbott: Mac?
Costello: No, the name's Lou.
Abbott: Your computer?
Costello: I don't own a computer. I want to buy one.
Abbott: Mac?
Costello: I told you, my name's Lou.
Abbott: What about Windows?
Costello: Why? Will it get stuffy in here?
Abbott: Do you want a computer with Windows?
Costello: I don't know. What will I see when I look in the windows?
Abbott: Wallpaper.
Costello: Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software.
Abbott: Software for Windows?
Costello: No. On the computer! I need something I can use to edit images and run my business. What have you got?
Abbott: Office.
Costello: Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything?
Abbott: I just did.
Costello: You just did what?
Abbott: Recommend something.
Costello: You recommended something?
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: For my office?
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: OK, what did you recommend for my office?
Abbott: Office.
Costello: Yes, for my office!
Abbott: I recommend Office with Windows.
Costello: I already have an office with windows! OK, lets just say I'm sitting at my computer and I want to type a proposal. What do I need?
Abbott: Word.
Costello: What word?
Abbott: Word in Office.
Costello: The only word in office is office.
Abbott: The Word in Office for Windows.
Costello: Which word in office for windows?
Abbott: The Word you get when you click the blue "W".
Costello: I'm going to click your blue "w" if you don't start with some straight answers. OK, forget that. Can I watch movies on the Internet?
Abbott: Yes, you want Real One.
Costello: Maybe a real one, maybe a cartoon. What I watch is none of your business. Just tell me what I need!
Abbott: Real One.
Costello: If it's a long movie I also want to see reels 2, 3 & 4. Can I watch them?
Abbott: Of course.
Costello: Great! With what?
Abbott: Real One.
Costello: OK, I'm at my computer and I want to watch a movie. What do I do?
Abbott: You click the blue "1".
Costello: I click the blue one what?
Abbott: The blue "1".
Costello: Is that different from the blue w?
Abbott: The blue "1" is Real One and the blue "W" is Word.
Costello: What word?
Abbott: The Word in Office for Windows.
Costello: But there's three words in "office for windows"!
Abbott: No, just one. But it's the most popular Word in the world.
Costello: It is?
Abbott: Yes, but to be fair, there aren't many other Words left. Word pretty much wiped out all the other Words out there.
Costello: And that word is real one?
Abbott: Real One has nothing to do with Word. Real One isn't even part of Office.
Costello: STOP! Don't start that again. What about financial bookkeeping? You have anything I can track my money with?
Abbott: Money.
Costello: That's right. What do you have?
Abbott: Money.
Costello: I need money to track my money?
Abbott: It comes bundled with your computer.
Costello: What's bundled with my computer?
Abbott: Money.
Costello: Money comes with my computer?
Abbott: Yes. No extra charge.
Costello: I get a bundle of money with my computer? How much?
Abbott: One copy.
Costello: Isn't it illegal to copy money?
Abbott: Microsoft gave us a license to copy Money.
Costello: They can give you a license to copy money?
Abbott: Why not? THEY OWN IT!
