Both the air we breathe and the food and water we eat and drink go through the same tube, the pharynx, to the trachea (for the air) or to the esophagus (for the food and water). Both the oral and nasal cavities lead to the pharynx. We can control what goes where because there is a structure called the epiglottis, that covers the top of the trachea (the opening is called the glottis) when we swallow. Otherwise, the epiglottis is open, so air flows into the trachea. When you try to do both at once, you start to choke - you have had the experience of something "going down the wrong pipe", haven't you?

Texting lets you control the tone and establish what kind of conversation you want to have. Learn here https://tr.im/JAss7
This is probably the most important part. With texting, you can stop and think about what you want to say to your ex at each step of the way. Instead of reacting emotionally, you can take your time, figure out the right thing to say (I’ll give you most of it), and be strategic with your ex without saying something that you’ll regret.

hello Abhi!!
nothing much goin on.
if u r opening d net on 6th thn belated happy B'day! how was the day??
mine was v. inactive one....nothin was v.special about it but yes, papa ne mujhe ek
cnvas with all the things a beginner need...gift kiya. it was indeed a nice gift. it was just
another day. anyway, wht bout u?? tumhara din kaisa beeta??
i don't particularly bout Rewa but read it somewhere....so i just guessed it to be so.
waise i didn't vote urs as d best answer coz obviously somebody else answered it better. i
can't choose urs as d best coz my question had no relavence with d things v chat. i hope
u don't misunderstand. of course i asked d ques. only to continue our talks but thn there's
no relation
b/w my ques. n ur ans. yet i don't mean tht i don't need it.
i can't vote 4 frindly talks in a philosophical 1.
khair, ab chhodo bhi.
my favourite colour is White.
i wear cotton clothes. i'm not comfortable with synthetic or nylon ones.
i'm comfy with casuals but evrythin goes in accord with my mood. i wear wht i feel like.
n yes, i'm v.choosy 4 certain things.....such as ppl i talk with, my clothes, food i eat ( i
eat wht i like - not wht prevents m frm being fat....like most girls do.), n many other
things. but i choose collar t-shirts or shirts 4 boys, with jeans...sort of faded.
v r planning to buy a scooty 4 me at present....bade ho kar khud aeroplane chalaongi...
n let me clarify, D. Dun itna bhi pichchda hua ilaka nahi ki yahaan HP ki novel na
aaye.....par i'm still trying to convince my parents to buy 1. i haven't started reading 1
yet.
no, i'm not joining KV-it's 30 km frm my house nd v r not shifting anywhere so
there'll b a lot of time wasetage....
i don't know my takia-kalaams....but...u must have figured it by now....
yaaaaa....i'm quite a foody. but not evrything evrytime....it all depends on my mood....but
i like home-made food more than anything else.....specilly whn they r prepared by
mummy.....paet bhar jaata hai par mann nahi bharta!!
my friends call me Shachi.....i've a name already.....why use another????
by d way.......how wud u feel if i say tht i'm 5 feet 6.4 inches tall????
i'm v. fond of music, but my singing is not restricted to bathroom only. i sing whereevr i
feel like.........like school corridors, roads, anywhere n evrywhere.....mostly i like hindi
tracks....u c dil hai hindustani.
padhne ke liye teacher is not so important....i agree. but i'm not the kind who's so much
into studies. i nvr start my studies until my classes r started. tht may be a weak point!!
but i prefer other passtimes ovr it. i've told u i don't have any class XI book so there's
no point tht i've studied something, rather anything. i'm just jumping like a frog these
days.
by d way, i'm not at all into bykes so i hardly know much bout them....but wht kind of
byke is tht which resembles a scooty???
nd it doesn't matter wht position u hold in d city in d respective xams. wht matters is
tht do u hold high urself against those commons??
if yes, thn go higher.
if no, thn think again...
nd ur father is absolutely right...this is not ur goal!
well, i always thought tht u need perfect tact n skill with perfect hands to do a surgery on
a brain n to play a piano......is heart surgery tougher than tht?????
nd hey! who says tht i replied in negative coz it's not easy 4 1 to give any1 else his/her
no.???
i didn't give it to u coz i don't prefer any chatting on phones.....on a serious note - i
prefer eye-contact while talking to another person......it's necessary 4 a better
understanding.....u can't have it on phones....and neither on net. besides tht i'm nvr at
home, after taking d tution i return home at 1800 hrs, nd after tht i don't like any
disturbance in my studies if i'm in a mood to study....but music has nvr disturbed me!!!
naaa....i don't have a scanner on my comp.
nd if u can open d net on any weekday/days it's good.....but i'll restrict mine to
sundays......i've been using it a lot lately!!
here r some jokes:
Best Break up Letter Ever.
A Marine stationed in Afghanistan recently received a "Dear John" Letter from his
girlfriend back home. It goes like this;
“Dear Ricky,
I can no longer continue our relationship. The distance between us is just too great. I
must admit that I have cheated on you twice since you have
been gone, and it is not fair to either of us. I am sorry. Please return the picture of me
that I sent to you.
Love,
Becky”
The Marine, with hurt feelings, asked his fellow Marines for any snapshots they could
spare of their girlfriends, sisters, ex-girlfriends, aunts, cousins etc. In addition to the
picture of Becky, Ricky included all the other pictures of the pretty gals he had collected
from his buddies.
There were 57 photos in that envelope along with this note:
“Dear Becky,
I'm so sorry, but I can't quite remember who you are. Please take your picture from the
pile, and send the rest back to me.
Take Care,
Ricky”
Hilarious Wife !!
A man came home from work and found his three children outside,
still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes
and wrappers strewn all around the front yard.
The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to the
house and there was no sign of the dog. Proceeding into the entry,
he found an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, and
the throw rug was wadded against one wall.
In the front room the TV was loudly blaring a cartoon channel, and
the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing.
In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled
on the counter, the fridge door was open wide, dog food was spilled
on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile
of sand was spread by the back door.
He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles
of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried she might be ill,
or that something serious had happened.
He was met with a small trickle of water as it made its way out the
bathroom door.
As he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap and more toys
strewn over the floor.
Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been smeared over the mirror
and walls. As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled up in
the bed in her pajamas, reading a novel.
She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day went. He looked
at her bewildered and asked, "What happened here today?"
She again smiled and answered, "You know - every day when you come
home from work and you ask me what in the world I do all day?"
Yes," was his incredulous reply.
She answered, "Well, today I didn't do it."
What is the difference between men and women?
1. A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful
woman is one who can find such a man.
2. Men wake up as good-looking as when they went to bed. Women somehow deteriorate
during the night.
3. A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he wants. A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item
that she doesn't want.
4. A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't. A man marries a
woman expecting that she won't change, and she does.
5. There are two times when a man doesn't understand a woman- before and after
marriage.
6. A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband. A man never worries
about the future until he gets a wife.
7. To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To
be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.
8. Any married man should forget his mistakes. There's no use in two people remembering
the same thing!
9. A woman has the last word in any argument. Anything a man says after that is the
beginning of a new argument.
10. Women look at a wedding as the beginning of romance, while men look at a
wedding as the ending of romance.
n yes, ek aakhiri baat.....i'm not 5 feet 6.4 inches tall!!!
