MY DAUGHTER'S COOKING

My wife is on an exchange visit with her school in Poland this week, so I am alone at home with my daughter.

It was her turn to cook this evening, though I did the shopping for the ingredients. She made a salmon lasagne, with leeks, carrots, onions, spinach, and a cheese and tomato topping. It was delicious.

She also made a very large portion. So that's what we'll be having when it's my turn to cook tomorrow night.

    Brilliant! Economics 1.01 - strategy.. To illustrate my point, let me tell you a little story:

    3 economists were going to a conference, and standing on the platform for train, they met 3 friends, who were scientists, and happened to be going to the same conference. The scientists buy their 3 tickets, but the economists only buy 1. The scientists thought this was odd, so decided to sit close to see why.

    Later, when the controller approached, the economists let their seats and went to the bathroom together. When the controller knocked on the door, one economist stuck his hand out with the ticket, got it approved, and shut the door again.

    After the conference, the 2 groups find themselves waiting for the same train back home. The scientists, remembering the trick, only buy 1 ticket, but the economists don't buy any at all. They just get on the train and find a seat close to the scientists. When the controller approaches, the scientists, copying the economists' idea, get up and find a vacant bathroom. The economists follow, knock on the toilet door, and ask for a ticket. As the scientists hand out the ticket, the economists take it, shut the door, and hurry off to find another vacant toilet..:)

    That is a good joke. A sign of modern times that last time I saw it the Economists were Australians and before that Scotsmen. I expect it will soon be a crime to be rude about ecoomists.
