Interview for a Signalman

Modon wanted a job as a signalman in the railways. So he went to the interview board.

The inspector in that board asked him this question: “What would you do if you saw 2 trains heading for each other on the SAME track?”
Modon said,” I would switch the points for one of the trains.”

“What if the lever broke?”, asked the inspector.
“Then I’d dash down to the signal box”, said Modon. “And use the manual lever there.”

“What if lightning strucks it?”, asked the inspector.
“Then…” Modon continued, “I’d run back into signal box and phone the next signal box.”

“What if the phone was engaged?”
“Well…..in that case,” perservered Modon, ” I’d rush down out of the box and use the PUBLIC emergency phone at the level of the crossing up there…”

“What would you do if THAT was vandalized?”
“Oh, well then I’d run into the village and get my Uncle Mofiz.”

This puzzled the Inspector, so he asked, ” Why would you do that???”
“Because he’s never seen a train wreck !!”

Transformers

Free Image Hosting

Are you a sci-fi movie fan? Do you like heart beat skipping action? Do you like cars? Then Transformers is for you. Director Michael Bay again hits the box office with his new movie. I like Michael Bay for his movies like Armageddon, The Rock and The Island . In this movie Bay uses cars like Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro, Pontiac.

Plot of Transformers:
The film begins with Optimus Prime explaining Cybertron’s destruction at the hands of Megatron, and his quest to obtain the Allspark. Megatron discovers the Allspark on Earth, but crash-lands in the Arctic Circle, becoming frozen in the ice. Sector 7, a secret United States government organization, discovers the Allspark and builds the Hoover Dam around it to mask the energy signal. The still-frozen Megatron is moved into this facility.

In the present day, the rest of the Decepticons — Blackout, Frenzy, Barricade, Starscream, Scorponok, Bonecrusher and Devastator — have landed on Earth and assumed the disguise of Earth vehicles (except Scorponok, who keeps his scorpion-like alien form). Blackout and Scorponok attack a U.S. military base in Qatar and try to hack into the military database to find where Megatron and the Allspark are, but failed. While Blackout destroys the rest of the base, Scorponok was also repelled while chasing a small group of survivors. After their failure, Frenzy infiltrates Air Force One to hack again into the military database. He finds the map imprinted on Captain Witwicky’s glasses, which his descendant Sam intends to sell on eBay for money. Frenzy and Barricade begin tracking Sam’s location.

The Autonomous Robotic Organism (shortened to “Autobot”) Bumblebee is also on Earth, disguised as a 1976 Chevrolet Camaro, and looking for Sam. Sam buys Bumblebee, without knowing that Bumblebee is an alien until he sees Bumblebee transform and send a homing signal to the rest of the Autobots. While Sam flees from his autonomous car, Barricade confronts him and demands Captain Witwicky’s spectacles. Bumblebee, who is following Sam, transforms and defeats Barricade. The other Autobots — Optimus Prime, Jazz, Ironhide, and Ratchet land on Earth and take on the forms of Earth vehicles. They all returne to Sam’s home to retrieve the glasses. Although the Autobots manage to get the glasses, agents from Sector 7 arrive and capture Sam and others.

Frenzy secretly accompanies the group to the Hoover Dam and releases Megatron from suspended animation. Locating the Allspark, he sends an alert to the other Decepticons. Megatron escapes and Sam convinces the Sector 7 agents to release Bumblebee so that he can get the Allspark to Optimus Prime. The Decepticons chase the Autobots, who now possess the Allspark, into Mission City. An ensuing battle between Autobots and Decepticons then takes place to own the Allspark.
