Do you drink beer?

By Materials & Welding -

This a conversation between a man and his wife. Please note that she asks five or six questions which he answers quite simply but then she is speechless after answering only one question. l bet this happens more often than not to most husbands out there:

 

Woman:  Do you drink beer?

 

Man:  Yes

 

Woman:  How many beers a day?

 

Man:  Usually about three

 

Woman:  How much do you pay per beer?

 

Man:  $5.00 which includes a tip (this is where it gets scary!)

 

Woman:  And how long have you been drinking?

 

Man:  About 20 years, I suppose

 

Woman:  So a beer costs $5 and you have three beers a day which puts your spending each month at $450. In one year, it would be approximately $5400 - correct?

 

Man:  Correct

 

Woman:  If in 1 year you spend $5400, not accounting for inflation, the past 20 years puts your spending at $108,000 correct?

 

Man:  Correct

 

Woman:  Do you know that if you didn’t drink so much beer, that money could have been put in a step-up interest savings account

and after accounting for compound interest for the past 20 years, you could have now bought an airplane?

??

 

Man:  Do you drink beer?

Woman:  No.

 

Man:  Where is your airplane? ????

The royals worldwide have doted on this gemstone, be it our own Rajmata Gayatri Devi to go with her chiffons or Queen Elizabeth with her elaborate royal gowns. Pearls as an accessory holds its ground with whatever you wear it….   Valuable pearls occur in the wild, but they are very rare. These are called Natural Pearls . They are formed inside the shell of certain mollusks: as a defense mechanism to a potentially threatening irritant such as a parasite inside its shell, injuring the mantle tissue. The mollusk creates a pearl sac to seal off the irritation. They come in many shapes with perfectly round ones being comparatively rare. Single natural pearls are often sold as a...

Spiders Facts

Certain female species of spiders such as the Australian crab spider, sacrifice their bodies as a food source for their offspring. Some male spiders pluck their cobwebs like a guitar, to attract female spiders. Fried spiders taste like nuts. The largest spider ever was the Megarachne which had a diameter of 50 cm. The fossil was found in Argentina. The bite from a black widow spider is not automatically fatal. In fact, less than 1% of all people bitten by this spider run the risk of dying, and most of them are saved with the use of antivenin. The skeleton of a spider is located on the outside of the body. Spiders usually have eight eyes, but still they cannot see that well. There are about 35,000 species of spiders. Spiders have claws at the ends of their legs. Only the female black widow spider has a poisonous bite. The male spider's venom is not poisonous and it does not attack its prey. Of the 35,000 species of spiders, only 27 species are known to have caused human fa...
