Have You Ever Seen.....,

Even after you see it, it is still hard to believe!

WaterBridge in Germany .... What a feat!

Six years, 500 million euros, 918 meters long.......now this is engineering!

This is a channel-bridge over the River Elbe and joins the former East and West Germany, as part of the unification project. It is located in the city of Magdeburg, near Berlin.

The photo was taken on the day of inauguration...

Question:

To those who appreciate engineering projects, here's a puzzle for you armchair engineers and physicists.

Did that bridge have to be designed to withstand the additional weight of ship and barge traffic, or just the weight of the water?

Answer:

It only needs to be designed to withstand the weight of the water!

Why? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as ship,regardless of how heavily a ship may be loaded.

Aphorisms

(A SHORT, POINTED SENTENCE THAT EXPRESSES A WISE OR CLEVER OBSERVATION OR A GENERAL TRUTH)

1. The nicest thing about the future is . . . that it always starts tomorrow.

2. Money will buy a fine dog, but only kindness will make him wag his tail.

3. If you don't have a sense of humor, you probably don't have any sense at all.

4. Seat belts are not as confining as wheelchairs.

5. A good time to keep your mouth shut is when you're in deep water.

6. How come it takes so little time for a child who is afraid of the dark to become a teenager who wants to stay out all night?

7. Business conventions are important . . . because they demonstrate how many people a company can operate without.

8. Why is it that at class reunions, you feel younger than everyone else looks?

9. Scratch a cat . . . and you will have a permanent job.

10. No one has more driving ambition than the teenage boy who wants to buy a car.

11. There are no new sins; the old ones just get more publicity.

12. There are worse things than getting a call for a wrong number at 4 a.m. --like, it could be the right number.

13. No one ever says, "It's only a game!" when their team is winning.

14. I've reached the age where "happy hour" is a nap.

15. Be careful about reading the fine print . . . there's no way you're going to like it.

16. The trouble with bucket seats is that not everybody has the same size bucket.

17. Do you realize that in about 40 years, we'll have thousands of old ladies running around with tattoos? (And rap music will be the Golden Oldies!)

18. Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Cadillac than in a Yugo.

19. After 60, if you don't wake up aching in every joint, you're probably dead.

20. Always be yourself because the people that matter don't mind . . . and the ones that mind don't matter.

21. Life isn't tied with a bow . . . but it's still a gift.

REMEMBER: "POLITICIANS AND DIAPERS SHOULD BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON"

Dad Thoughts

"QUOTES"

The great man is he who does not lose his child's heart ..

A Father is not someone to lean on, but someone who makes leaning unnecessary.

To be in your child's memories tomorrow ... you have to be in their lives today.

Fathers learn a lot from children about coping with life.

You can learn many things from children ... how much patience you have, for instance.

SOME FATHERLY ADVICE AND WORDS OF WISDOM

(Do Any Of These Sound Familiar To You?)

"Were you raised in a barn? Close the door!"

"Big boys don't cry."

"Now you listen to me, Buster!"

"A little dirt never hurt anyone ... just wipe it off."

"You call that a haircut?"

"This will hurt me a lot more than it will hurt you."

"Don't give me any of your lip, young lady."

"As long as you live under my roof ...
you'll live by my rules."

"What's so funny? Wipe that smile off your face!"

"Eat it! It will grow hair on your chest."

"Stop crying or I'll give you a reason to cry!"

"You have it so easy ... when I was your age...
I had to walk to school in 10 feet of snow
up hill both ways."

"What do you think I am ... a bank?"

"If you break your leg, don't come running to me."

things were sure different."

35 years old

"I'm not doing a single thing until I talk to Dad."

40 years old

"I wonder how Dad would have handled it.
He was so wise and had a world of experience."

50 years old

"I'd give anything if Dad were here now so I could talk this over with him. Too bad I didn't appreciate how smart he was. I could have learned a lot from him."

~ Ann Landers ~

When I was a boy of 14, My father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have
The old man around.

But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much The old man had learned in seven years.

~ Mark Twain ~
