Humankind is a fascinating species! We are one of only two known species to procreate for pleasure; we are capable of unspeakable, deliberate cruelty and also the most mind-blowing acts of kindness. We can become, do, say, invent, be, see, and know absolutely anything at any time in our existence! We are innovative beyond measure. We are all so diverse that to find two people who are exactly the same could take a considerable amount of time!

One of the fascinations of today's world is the way in which we communicate. We have cell phones; handheld communication devices that become more technologically advanced the smaller they are designed. The internet! Everything, absolutely everything, is available on the internet! A favourite of mine, EMAIL! Through email we can share such a wealth of information, laughter, and love such as could never be measured! Though email is used for a number of interactions, inescapable are the jokes! Those amazing mails that will make you cry with laughter at your desk despite the fact that your boss has given you 'the look' for being late again. Despite that you spilt coffee down your white shirt. Despite the annoying, over-achieving colleague rubbing your face in his most recent promotion or pay increase. Despite all these factors, a good humoured email can set it all straight! This is the Universe's way of reminding you that all that rips away at your happiness can never leave you miserable for much longer. Our purpose on this planet is happiness, love, learning and Enlightenment! Laughter is on of the surest way to Enlightenment!

Another very helpful and useful habit Humans have is the habit of sharing valuable information. In view of that, here are a few of my favorite funny emails. Send them around and put a smile on someone's face courtesy of The Badchica (,").

How to survive a shark attack

1: Don't swim in the ocean.

Ninety-nine percent of all shark attacks take place in exceptionally large bodies of water also known as oceans.

The way to determine if you are currently in an ocean is to taste the water, which should be salty.

2: Listen out for the music.

In the event that you are foolish enough to swim in an ocean, listen carefully for the music, as demonstrated in the marvelous documentary

film Jaws. All shark attacks are preceded by the "daah-da, daah-da" chords, which will gradually become more rapid as the shark gets

closer.

This is due to the Doppler Effect.

3: Swim with fat people.

Try to surround yourself with more appetizing companions.

If you know them well, you might even try to switch their suntan lotion with A-1 Steak Sauce. This will definitely improve your odds.

4: Don't go into the water without a knife.

This is not to defend yourself but to stab the person (a.k.a the decoy) closest to you in the case of a shark attack. Once you are sure the

"decoy" is bleeding profusely.....swim for your freekin life.

And finally.....

5: Don't panic.

In the event that a shark actually bites you, try to remain calm. This really won't help you survive, but everyone else on the beach will

appreciate you not shrieking madly, as this is quite unsettling

Hope this helps.
