16 things

Hey everyone! Its been a long long time since I've posted.To clear your doubts on whether I'm alive or not, here's a post that I am making.I am pretty much held up with my UTs ( to be taken as nothing more than a hyperbole ), and plus theres this tension spreading in the air about my 5th semester results, that most often I am made to visit my toilet.If you think its all gas, well......you're both right and wrong.Now while you ponder upon that last sentence, I wish to tell you something.There was this text file that I recently found pretty interesting, that I procured quite carefully from KR's external hard disk.The file is quite interestingly titled '16 things it takes most of us 50 years to learn'.I'll leave you with the contents of that file.

Things It Takes Most Of Us 50 years to learn:

1. The badness of a movie is directly proportional to the number of helicopters in it.
2. You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and compelling reason why we observe daylight-saving time.
3. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests you think she's pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment.
4. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside, we ALL believe that we are above-average drivers.
5. There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is: age 11.
6. There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
7. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.
8. If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be "meetings."
9. The main accomplishment of almost all organized protests is to annoy people who are not in them.
10. If there really is a God who created the entire universe with all of its glories, and he decides to deliver a message to humanity, he will NOT use as his messenger a person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle or in some cases, really bad make-up too.
11. You should not confuse your career with your life.
12. A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter/janitor, is not a nice person.
13. No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.
14. When trouble arises and things look bad, there is always one individual who perceives a solution and is willing to take command. Very often, that individual is crazy.
15. Your true friends love you, anyway.
16. Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.

I thought day light saving was to conserve energy.

Well yeah, since the number of day hours increases during day light saving, people use less of electricity for lighting etc and they have their dinner earlier where the sun shines bright (which is close to 6 pm for the usual Amercian/Westerner). Guess through some complex calculation, energy is thus saved.
