Pant, I got to about the middle and then my PC froze. What a powerful piece!

Yeah, what queenie said.

Sorry, I assumed that everyone was running the latest Win XP Operating sys like this machine, so, yes, if you're in a XP SP/1, Win2k, or earlier version, you probably want to click on the media player > Start button to feed the stream.

It froze??

Hmmm, well that sort of choke, in most cases is due to a low bandwith connection, or a lack of on demand-real time memory.

However, 9 out of 10 times in newer systems, It's a Bandwidth or connection issue, which is dependant upon your TC/IP Stack, especially if you're connecting by analog means (i.e. Dial Up, or VPN, Internet Sharing, or any hosted analog pipeburst), in contrast to a real time Digital Subscriber Line, or a NET/LAN, gateway Broadband connection.

Anyway Lady, my bad, and all I can say is that sometimes I forget that not everyone’s been there, so I really shouldn't throw things like that out there to folks on a Quiet Sunday morning.
Good Morning, Elaine.

This is as good a time as any for this cat to get some sleep.

Good morning back to you dear Pant. I do have high speed, but you lost me with the rest of the technical terms.

We need a wake up call sometimes since we take much for granted...so throwing this out there IMHO is part of our reality.

HEALTH QUESTION & ANSWER SESSION

Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life; is this true?

A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it... don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.
Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?

A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products.
Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?

A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine, that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up!
Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?

A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.
Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?

A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good!
Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?

A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!!. Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?
Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around themiddle?

A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.
Q: Is chocolate bad for me?

A: Are you crazy? HELLO . Cocoa beans! Another vegetable!!! It's the best feel-good food around!
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?

A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.
Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?

A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!
Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about
food and diets.

And remember: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to
skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, What a Ride!"

Thank you, blenchi. That has reinforced some of my strongest beliefs. People ask me why I don't exercise. I tell them because exercise hurts and pain is the body's way of telling you, "Stop! Don't do that!"

I also love the dietary tips! In fact, I believe I'll have some more grains right now (courtesy of Adolph Coors)!

Amen to that, Sister.

The bottom line is that the only thing that's really good for Life, is Life itself, and killing yourself to stay alive, is kind of like fornicating for chastity, which makes no sense at all.

But then again, what do I know?

BTW blenchi, if you're chest ever gets sore from all that jogging, I'll be more then happy, as a good citizen mind you, to massage it for you at no cost what so ever.

Quick thinking...

Pedro was driving down the street in a sweat because he had an important meeting, and couldn't find a parking place.

Looking up toward heaven, he said "Lord, take pity on me. If you find me a parking place, I will go to Mass every Sunday for the rest
of my life, and give up tequila."

Miraculously, a parking place appeared!

Pedro looked up again and said "Never mind. I found one."

Very interesting to see "who" your friends are!



(10-16 points) You are Garfield: You are very comfortable, easy going, and you definitely know how to have fun but sometimes you take it to an extreme. You always know what you are doing and you are always in control of your life. Others may not see things as you do, but that doesn't mean that you always have to do what is right. Try to remember your happy spirit may hurt you or others.



17-23 points) You are Snoopy: You are fun, you are very cool and popular. You always know what's in and you never are
out of style You are good at knowing how to satisfy everyone else. You have probably disappeared for a few days more than once but you always come home with the family values that you learned. Being married and having children are important to you, but only after yo u have had your share of fun times.



(24-28 points) You are Elmo: You have lots of friends and you are also popular, always willing to give advice and help out a
person in need. You are very optimistic and you always see the bright side of things. Some good advice: try not to be too much of a dreamer, if not you will have many conflicts with life.



(29-35 points) You are Sponge Bob Square Pants: You are the classic person that everyone loves. You are the best friend
that anyone could ever have and never want to lose. You never cause harm to anyone and they would never not understand your feelings. Life is a journey, it's funny and calm for the most part. Stay away from traitors and jealous people, and then you will be stress free.



(36-43 points) You are Charlie Brown: You are tender, you fall in love quickly but you are also very serious about all relationships. You are a family person. You call your mom every Sunday. You have many friends and may occasionally forget a few Birthdays. Don't let your passion confuse you with reality.



(44-50 points) You are Dexter: You are smart and definitely a thinker. Every situation is fronted with a plan. You have a
brilliant mind. You demonstrate very strong family principles. Maintain a stable routine but never ignore a bad situation when it comes.

A man, his wife, and his mother-in-law went on vacation to the Holy
Land.
While they were there, the mother-in-law passed away.
The undertaker told them, "You can have her shipped home for $5,000,
or you can bury her here in the Holy Land for $150.00."
The man thought about it and told him he would just have her shipped
home.
The undertaker asked, "Why would you spend $5,000 to ship your
mother-in-law home, when it would be wonderful to have her buried here and
spend
only $150.00?"
The man replied, "A man died here 2,000 years ago, was buried here,
and three days later he rose from the dead. I just can't take that
chance."

Dog and the phone

An Indiana farm wife called the local phone company to report her telephone failed to ring when her friends called -- and that on the few occasions when it did ring, her pet dog always moaned right before the phone rang. The telephone repairman proceeded to the scene, curious to see this psychic dog or senile elderly lady. He climbed a nearby telephone pole, hooked in his test set, and dialed the subscriber's house. The phone didn't ring right away, but then the dog moaned loudly and the telephone began to ring.

Climbing down from the pole, the telephone repairman found:

1. The dog was tied to the telephone system's ground wire via a steel chain and collar.
2. The wire connection to the ground rod was loose.
3. The dog was receiving 90 volts of signaling current when the phone number was called.
4. After a couple of such jolts, the dog would start moaning and then urinate on himself and the ground.
5. The wet ground would complete the circuit, thus causing the phone to ring.

Which demonstrates that some problems CAN be fixed by pissing and moaning.

A drunk man in a bar asks the bartender where the bathroom was.

The bartender gives the man directions the man to the bathroom.

A few minutes later, everybody at the bar hears a loud scream from out of the bathroom and wonders what the Hell is going on in there.

A few minutes go by and, again, everybody at the bar hears another loud scream coming from the bathroom.

This time the bartender goes into the bathroom to investigate what the drunk is screaming about. He knocks on the door and asks the drunk, "What's all the screaming about in there? You're scaring my customers!"

The drunk says, "I'm just sitting here on the toilet and every time I try to flush it, something comes up and squeezes the Hell out of my balls."

With that, the bartender opens up the door and looks in and says, "Well, no wonder, you're sitting on the mop bucket!"

Very entertaining...and cute...I had I high score of 95! yipee...

WOMEN'S HUMOR (In Keeping With Our Sherry and Murray Story)

He was right. When he went out of the bedroom, I squirted it all over the doorknobs. He couldn't get back in.

S-E-X AND FLYING

One night an 87 y/o woman came home from Bingo to find her 92 y/o husband in bed with another woman. She became violent and ended up pushing him off the balcony of their 20th floor assisted living apartment ... killing him instantly.

Brought before the court on a charge of murder, the judge asked her if she had anything to say in her defense.

She began coolly, "Yes, your honor ... I figured that, at 92, if he could have s-e-x he could fly!"

The Love Dress

A woman stopped by unannounced at her recently married son's house. She
rang the doorbell and walked in. She was shocked to see her daughter-in-law lying on the couch, totally naked. Soft music was playing, and the aroma of perfume filled the room. "What are you doing?" she asked.

"I'm waiting for my husband to come home from work," the daughter-in-law answered. "But you're naked!" the mother-in-law exclaimed.

"This is my love dress," the daughter-in-law explained.

"Love dress? But you're naked!"

"My husband loves me to wear this dress," she explained. "It excites Him
to no end. Every time he sees me in this dress, he instantly becomes
romantic and ravages me for hours on end. He can't get enough of me."

The mother-in-law left. When she got home, she undressed, showered, put
on her best perfume, dimmed the lights, put on a romantic CD, and laid on
the couch waiting for her husband to arrive. Finally her husband came home.
He walked in and saw her laying there so provocatively."What are you
doing?" he asked. "This is my love dress," she whispered, sensually.

"Needs ironing," he said. "What's for dinner?"

His funeral will be held Thursday.

Heheh.

Can't say that I feel too sorry for the poor 'Stupid' bloke.

Wonder how long Todays Youth would of survived in that world?

Well, then again, in those days was hard, so I hardly think many would take things for granted like they do today.

A girl came skipping home from school one day. "Mommy, Mommy," she yelled, "we were counting today, and all the other kids could only count to four, but I counted to 10. See? 1, 2, 3, 4,5, 6,7,
8, 9, 10!"



"Very good," said her mother.



"Is it because I'm blonde, Mommy?"



"Yes, Honey, it's because you're blonde."



The next day the girl came skipping home from school. "Mommy, Mommy," She yelled, "we were saying the alphabet today, and all the other kids could only say it to D, but I said it to G. See?



A,b, c, d, e, f, g!"



"Very good," said her mother.



"Is it because I'm blonde, Mommy?"



"Yes, Honey, it's because you're blonde."



The next day the girl came skipping home from school. "Mommy, Mommy," she yelled, "we were in gym class today, and when we showered, all the other girls had flat chests, but I have these!"....And she lifted her tank top to reveal a pair of 36Cs.



"Very good," said her embarrassed mother. "Is it because I'm blonde, mommy?"



"No, Honey, it's because you're 25."

Try This:


There are two pictures identical to each other; you have to find three differences. If you can find three differences, then you are part of an elite group of individuals. This has been tested on many people, and hardly anyone found the three differences. I can only manage to find 2 Let me know if you find all three. The third must be impossible to find.
