103%

[Musicqueen]

Ever wonder about those people who say they are
giving more than 100%?

We have all been to those meetings where someone
wants over 100%.

How about achieving 103%? Here's a little math that
might prove helpful.


What makes life 100%?

If A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then,

H A R D W O R K
8 1 18 4 23 15 18 11 = 98%

K N O W L E D G E
11 14 15 23 12 5 4 7 5 = 96%

But,

A T T I T U D E
1 20 20 9 20 21 4 5 = 100%

And,

B U L L S H I T
2 21 12 12 19 8 9 20 = 103%

So, it stands to reason that hardwork and knowledge
will get you close, attitude will get you there, but
bull**** will put you over the top.

And look how far A S S K I S S I N G
will take you:

1 19 19 11 9 19 19 9 14 7 = 118%

We all have known the latter two achievers, haven't we.

my daughter worked on a geography progect while we were in the d.r. for xmas, she had 30 written pages, and did a great video! she was given 60.5 out of 60!! 105%!! I think it was having all her cute dominican boyfriends say"hola, miss jansen...." should have mabe qualified her for the 118%!!

one of her quotes i found especialy beautiful, i not sure where she found it..... and as plentiful as the raindrops are the friendshipsand merengues which will saturate you with contagious happiness in a land where each dominican is an enthusiastic, warm and sincere friend. land of unforgettable sunsets, of blue and golden beaches, of fragrant, and luminous mountains, dominican republic is one of the few names given to paradise. wow, sure makes me want to go back....
