This is an exercise in "English comprehension". Read the following paragraph, line by line.
| The great love that I have for you | |
| is gone, and I find my dislike for you | |
| grows every day. When I see you, | |
| I do not even like your face; | |
| the one thing that I want to do is to | |
| look at other boys. I never wanted to | |
| marry you. Our last conversation | |
| was very boring and has not | |
| made me look forward to seeing you again. | |
| You think only of yourself. | |
| If we were married, I know that I would find | |
| life very difficult, and I would have no | |
| Pleasure in living with you. I have a heart | |
| to give, but it is not something that | |
| I want to give to you. No one is more | |
| foolish and selfish than you, and you are not | |
| able to care for me and help me. | |
| I sincerely want you to understand that | |
| I speak the truth. You will do me a favor | |
| if you think this the end. Do not try of | |
| things that do not interest me. You have no | |
| true love for me. Good-bye! Believe me, | |
| I do not care for you. Please do not think that | |
| I am still your friend. |

There was a Sardarji who was down on his luck. In order to raise some money he decided to kidnap a kid and hold him for ransom. He went to the playground, grabbed a kid, took him behind a tree, and told him, "I've kidnapped you."
The Sardarji then wrote a note saying: "I've kidnapped your kid. Tomorrow morning,
put $10,000 in a paper bag & put it beneath the mango tree next to the slide on
the north side of the city play ground".
Signed, "A Sardarji".
The Sardarji then pinned the note to the kid's shirt and sent him home to show it to his parents.
The next morning the Sardarji checked, and sure enough a paper bag was sitting beneath the mango tree. The Sardarji opened up the bag and found the $10,000 with a note saying, "How could you do this to a fellow Sardarji ?!"

Two surds go fishing. They catch a lot of fish and return to the shore.
The first surd says: "I hope you remember the spot where we caught all those fish."
The other answers: "Yes, I made an 'X' on the side of the boat to mark the spot."
"You idiot!" replies the first. "How do you know we will get the same boat tomorrow?"

An surd and a friend are sitting in a cinema. Just before the break they see a cactus and in some
distance a cowboy. During the break the friend says to the surd: "I bet the cowboy will ride
into the cactus."
The surd answers:"I do not believe that." They agree that the looser invites the winner to a
bottle of wine after the film. It turns out that the friend wins. So after the film they drink
together the bottle of wine in a restaurant near the cinema.
Then the friend says: "I must confess that the bet was not fair. I saw the film for the second
time." The surd replies: "And I saw it for the forth time, but I did not think that this
fool rides into the cactus again."
