2 tough questions

    Question 1:

    If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already,
    three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she
    had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?


    Read the next question before looking at the answer for this one.

    Question 2:

    It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote
    counts. Here are the facts about the three leading candidates.
    Candidate A -
    Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with
    astrologists.
    He's
    had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10
    martinis a
    day.
    Candidate B -
    He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used
    opium in
    college
    and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.
    Candidate C -
    He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke,
    drinks an
    occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.
    Which of these candidates would be your choice?

    Decide first, no
    peeking,then scroll down for the answer.



    Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
    Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
    Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.
    And, by the way, the answer to the abortion question: If you
    said yes,
    you just killed Beethoven.

    Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before
    judging someone.
    Never be afraid to try something new.
    Remember: Amateurs built the ark.Professionals built the
    Titanic
    Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more
    than 500
    employees and has the following statistics:
    29 have been accused of spousal abuse
    7 have been arrested for fraud
    19 have been accused of writing bad checks
    117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2
    businesses.
    3 have done time for assault
    71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
    14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
    8 have been arrested for shoplifting
    21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
    84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year
    Can you guess which organization this is?
    Give up yet?
    It's the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same
    group of
    idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed
    to keep
    the
    rest of
    us in line.

    Yes but the differance being he was not married at the time. He married Eva and then like commited suicide. Although to make him seem bad I'll add the fact that he did sleep with his niece and stuff then killed her [or well had her killed, though suicide said the SS] ... So much more I could say.

    um the ark also took a lot longer to build...
    what was the recorded profession of Noah?
    how many life boats did the ark have?
