Toshiba Will Soon Unleash Hi Def DVD Player
"HDTV SETS ARE STUNNING -- until you pop in a movie and are reminded that DVDs are not recorded in high definition. . . That will change this year when Toshiba introduces the first high-def disc player for the US market. Toshiba's breakthrough box, an HD DVD player that at press time was still unnamed, will cost about $1,000. . ."
Random Humor: Another Work Place Joke
A group of managers were given the assignment to measure the height of a flagpole. So they went out to the flagpole with ladders and tape measures, and they were falling off the ladders, dropping the tape measures - the whole thing was just a mess.
An engineer came along and saw what they were trying to do, walked over, pulled the flagpole out of the ground, laid it flat, measured it from end to end, gave the measurement to one of the managers and walked away.
After the engineer was gone, one manager turned to another and laughed. "Isn't that just like an engineer? We're looking for the height and he gives us the length."
