Tip of an iceberg…

This gigantic iceberg had been towed away by ships from a rig in St. Johns, Newfoundland. The water was calm and the sun was almost directly overhead enabling a diver to get into the water and click this picture. The weight of the iceberg was estimated at 300,000,000 tons.

Friends...

Tried my luck to get in touch with former university mates by posting a note on our Stracomm group email. Was I happy that it prompted some response. While some said they were still at their old place, there were those looking for new job opportunities...

Making a difference...

A giant ship engine failed. The ship's owners tried one expert after
another, but none of them could figure how to fix the engine.
Then they brought in an old man who had been fixing ships since he
was young. He carried a large bag of tools with him and when he
arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very
carefully, top to bottom.
Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he
would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached
into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something.
Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away.
The engine was fixed!
A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand dollars.
"What?!" the owners exclaimed.
"He hardly did anything!"
So they wrote the old man a note saying: "Please send us an itemized bill."

CAN YOU GUESS WHAT WAS THE BREAK DOWN?
The man sent a bill that read :
Tapping with a hammer............ $ 2.00
Knowing where to tap.............. $ 9,998.00

--Its ALL about knowledge! --

Effort is important but knowing where to make an effort in your life
makes all the difference.
