I'm Winning the Battle...

[The Tavern Wench]

I am definitely winning the battle!!

I don't do windows because...
I love birds and don't want one to run into a clean window and get hurt.
(I am compassionate)

I don't wax floors because...
I am terrified a guest will slip, hurt themselves, I'll feel terrible and they may sue me.
(I am careful and poor)

I don't mind the dust bunnies because...
They are very good company, I have named most of them and they agree with everything I say.
(I am imaginative)

I don't disturb cowebs because...
I want every creature to have a home of their own and my family loves spiders.
(I am kind)

I don't Spring Clean because...
I love all the seasons and don't want the others to get jealous.
(I am fair minded)

I don't plant a garden because...
I don't want to get in God's way, he is an excellent designer.
(I am courteous)

I don't put things away because...
My family will never be able to find them again.
(I am considerate)

I don't do gourmet meals when I entertain because...
I don't want my guests to stress out over what to make when they invite me over for dinner.
(I am thoughtful)

I don't iron because...
I choose to believe them when they say "Permanent Press".
(I am trusting)

I don't stress much on anything because...
"A-Type" personalities die young and I want to stick around and become a wrinkled up, crusty ol' woman!
(I am winning this battle!)

Why Computers Sometimes Crash! by Dr. Seuss.


If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, and the bus is interrupted at a very last resort, and the access of the memory makes your floppy disk abort, then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.



If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash, and the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash, and your data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash,
then your situation's hopeless and your system's gonna crash!



If the label on the cable on the table at your house, says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, but your packets want to tunnel to another protocol, that's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall.



And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, so your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse; then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang, 'cuz sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang.



When the copy on your floppy's getting sloppy in the disk, and the macro code instructions is causing unnecessary risk, then you'll have to flash the memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM, and then quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!



Well, that certainly clears things up for me. How about you?

[Platzki]

Sher... I peed myself!!

Classic 

[The Tavern Wench]

An 80 year old couple were having problems remembering things, so they decided to go to their doctor to get checked out to make sure nothing was wrong with them.

When they arrived at the doctors, they explained to the doctor about the problems they were having with their memory. After checking the couple out, the doctor told them that they were physically okay but might want to start writing things down and make notes to help them remember things. The couple thanked the doctor and left.

Later that night while watching TV, the man got up from his chair and his wife asked, "Where are you going?"

He replied, "To the kitchen."

She asked, "Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?"

He replied, "Sure."

She then asked him, "Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?"

He said, "No, I can remember that."

She then said, "Well I would also like some strawberries on top. You had better write that down because I know you'll forget that."

He said, "I can remember that, you want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries." She replied, "Well I also would like whipped cream on top. I know you will forget that so you better write it down."

With irritation in his voice, he said, "I don't need to write that down! I can remember that." He then fumes into the kitchen.

After about 20 minutes he returned from the kitchen and handed her a plate of bacon and eggs. She stared at the plate for a moment and said angrily:

"I TOLD you to write it down! You forgot my toast!"
