Tip of the day: No chain letters, virus hoaxes and good luck charms. See

Once upon a time there was a Prince who, through no fault of his
own was cast under a spell by
an evil witch. The curse was that the Prince could speak only one word
each year. However, he could
save up the words so that if he did not speak for a whole year, then the
following year he was
allowed to speak two words. (This was before the time of letter writing
or sign language.)
One day he met a beautiful princess (ruby lips, golden hair,
sapphire eyes,) and fell madly in
love. With the greatest difficulty he decided to refrain from speaking
for two whole years so that
he could look at her and say "my darling". But at the end of the two
years he wished to tell her
that he loved her. Because of this he waited three more years without
speaking (bringing the total
number of silent years to 5).
But at the end of these five years he realized that he had to
ask her to marry him. So he
waited ANOTHER four years without speaking.
Finally as the ninth year of silence ended, his joy knew no
bounds. Leading the lovely princess
to the most secluded and romantic place in that beautiful royal garden
the prince heaped a hundred
red roses on her lap, knelt before her, and taking her hand in his, said
huskily, "My darling, I
love you! Will you marry me?"
And the princess tucked a strand of golden hair behind a dainty
ear, opened her sapphire eyes in
wonder, and parting her ruby lips, said:
"Pardon?"
WITH WARM REGARDS
AND BEST WISHES.
PRATAP MALANI.
SMILE : Why do we need to wash our bath towel, aren't we clean when we use
them.
