A philosophy professor stood before his class with some items on the table in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, about 2 inches in diameter.

He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks.

He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He then asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "Yes."

At first glance, this story gives a false impression. It makes you think that the moral of the story is about being able to recognize the truly important things in your life, and knowing how to separate them from the less-important things. But that's all subterfuge.

See, after the pebbles, the students should've realized it was a trick question when he asked if the jar is full. They SAW that there was still space left for the smaller pebbles...so the next time he asked the same question, they should've seen it coming that something even smaller was going to fit in there. The REAL moral of this story is that this professor had a class full of morons. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me over and over again with the same stupid trick, and I'm not qualified to be walking upright.

I would have just asked...Where are the M&M's?? ;D

I missed so much relationship advice, although I haven't been married long enough to dish out my own advice. Definitely glad none of these experiences have happened to me (yet??) but when this does happen it's my poor husband who is on the receiving end of my lack of communication... (when I stress out, I withdraw). Jerry and ms Malawi, I hope you sort things out soon.

edit: I made no sense in this post. :-\

That's so sweet and I hope you feel better Lunas. My husband doesn't have the attention span to sit through a movie but it amazes me how he can watch reruns of soccer matches. His head just moves side to side for 90 minutes.

Palm on my face.

I wonder how many different ways you could describe a complete moron. :-X

About the same number of ways in which a complete moron can demonstrate their moronity.
In other words, it's oodles and oodles of infiniteness!

Simon was one of those TV personalities that could crush someone's dream in an instant and yet could make a another smile until their cheeks hurt.

(I'm sorry if I just made you blush). Hasta Manana Senor.

Oh I'm familiar with Simon Cowell - I was just somewhat surprised that I would be compared to him. I didn't realize I've attained the level of dream crusher.
