Bill Gates' 11 rules

This should be posted in all schools and work places:

Love him or hate him, B.Gates sure hits the nail on

the head with his speech at a High School about

11 things kids did not and will not learn in school.

WINTER HOLIDAYS

Here's a snapshot of a snowy countryside, taken
this afternoon at a railway station in Schladming.
I've just arrived home from a two-day-journey abroad
and realized that this year's winter holidays are nearly
over. Do you miss school?
I have a brainstorming exercise for you:
think about the word HOLIDAYS and the letters
it contains. Try to make new words using each of
the letters (H-O-L-I-D-A-Y-S) in any order only once
and become the winner of this 'holiday competition'
- with the longest list of words.

SAINT VALENTINE'S DAY

as well.
