Understanding Engineers
(Don't feel singled out! We'll pick on everyone before
it's over!)
An engineer was crossing a road one day when a
frog called out to him and said, "If you kiss me, I'll turn
into a beautiful princess." He bent over, picked up the
frog and put it in his pocket.
The frog spoke up again and said, "If you
kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I will stay
with you for one week." The engineer took the frog out of
his pocket, smiled at it and returned it to the pocket.
The frog then cried out, "If you kiss me
and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I'll stay with you
forever and give you ANYTHING you want." Again the engineer
took the frog out, smiled at it and put it back into his pocket.
Finally, the frog asked, "What’s the
matter? I've told you I'm a beautiful princess, that I'll stay
with you forever and give you anything you want. Why won't you
kiss me?"
The engineer said, "Look I'm an engineer. I don't have time
for a girlfriend, but a talking frog, now THAT'S cool."

MEET
PAT MARR

PAT
MARR, DISGUISED AS A "NORMAL HUMAN BEING"
Pat Marr
is the contributing editorial cartoonist for BizWatchOnline. He’s
our kind of guy. BizWatchOnline wanted to know about the
fountain’s of Pat’s inspiration, and here’s what he said:
"AS
A CHILD I LACKED GOOD LOOKS, TALENT, SKILLS OF ANY KIND,
INTELLECT AND CHARM, SO I WAS FORCED TO DEVELOP A SENSE OF
HUMOR. HUMOR IS THE LUBRICANT OF LIFE; IT MINIMIZES ALL SORTS OF
FRICTION, BETTER THAN WD40, THE OLD STANDBY."
"CARTOONING
IS NOT MY FULL TIME JOB. I JUST DO IT TO VENT IDEAS. FROM A
MYERS-BRIGGS PERSONALITY PERSPECTIVE, I AM AN INTP. INTPs TEND
TO BE IDEA DRIVEN, AND THAT IS CERTAINLY TRUE OF ME. AS SUCH, I
DON'T CONSIDER MYSELF TO BE AN ARTIST AS MUCH AS PERSON WHO PUTS
IDEAS INTO A GRAPHICAL FORM. IN FACT, TO ME, DRAWING IS A VERY
SMALL PART OF CARTOONING; THE PRIMARY SKILL IS THE ABILITY TO
CONDENSE A COMPLEX IDEA INTO ITS SMALLEST FORM: A SINGLE
PANEL."
"THINK
OF ME AS A BUTTERKNIFE IN THE GREAT DRAWER OF LIFE; NOT AS SHARP
AS OTHER INTPs, BUT I WON'T USUALLY STAB YOU, AND I'M KIND OF
USEFUL."
