Smoking is one of the leading causes of statistics.
— Fletcher KnebelMy method is to take the utmost trouble to find the right thing to say,
and then to say it with the utmost levity.
— George Bernard Shaw,
A writer died and was given the option of going to heaven
or hell. She decided to check out each place first. As the
writer descended into the fiery pits, she saw row upon
row of writers chained to their desks in a steaming
sweatshop. As they worked, they were repeatedly whipped
with thorny lashes.“Oh my,” said the writer. “Let me see heaven now.”
A few moments later, as she ascended into heaven, she
saw rows of writers, chained to their desks in a steaming
sweatshop. As they worked, they, too, were whipped with
thorny lashes.“Wait a minute!,” said the writer, “This is just as bad
as hell.”“Oh no, it's not,” replied an unseen voice. “Here, your
work gets published.”
A lady is having a bad day at the roulette tables in Las Vegas.
She's down to her last $50. Exasperated, she exclaims,
“What rotten luck! What in the world should I do now?”A man standing next to her, trying to calm her down, suggests,
“I don't know… Why don't you play your age?”He walks away. Moments later, his attention is grabbed by
a great commotion at the roulette table. Maybe, she won!
He rushes back to the table and pushes his way through the
crowd. The lady is lying limp on the floor, with the table
operator kneeling over her.The man is stunned. He asks, “What happened? Is she all right?”
The operator replies, “I don't know. She put all her money on 29.
When 36 came up, she just fainted!”

goes to James City, Virginia, Police“Sharking” in Virginia
March 20, 2008 - Williamsburg, Virginia - UPI
A Virginia teenager is charged with sexual battery after
allegedly yanking down a 14-year-old girl's pants, a police
spokesman said.The 15-year-old James City boy allegedly came up behind
the girl as she was having a public conversation with
someone and tugged her pants down, the Newport News
(Va.) Daily Press reported Wednesday.The boy reportedly fled after the Saturday night incident,
but authorities arrested him and held him at the Merrimac
Juvenile Detention Center after talking to his mother.Though the incident may be seen as a harmless prank,
“any unlawful touching is an assault,” James City Police
spokesman Mike Spearman said.Possible punishment for the boy will be decided in juvenile
court, the Daily Press reported.http://www.arcamax.com/newsheadlines/s-320458-701278
—————————
“Sharking” has become fairly popular in some parts of Europe,
and can be anything from stepping onto the dragging pant legs
of nerds, who wear oversized and low slung pants, to actually
pulling them down. It is usually done by teams consisting of
a “shark” and a “handy”, somebody recording the shark attack
via mobile phone camera.Normally sharking is done in a neighboring town, where the
team is not recognized. Some kids may get carried away,
but usually they shark only teenagers who wear sloppy, low-
slung pants and expose rear cleavage or underwear. They
don't consider it anything sexual and simply want to ridicule
sloppy fashion.

Re: How do I install new fonts?
Dear Webby
A friend sent me a bunch of new fonts via Skype. How do
I install them, so that all programs can use them?
Thanks
Marilla
Dear Marilla
click on Start, Run, and type in there
c:\windows\fontsTo confuse you, Windows now opens an old style
explorer window. Don't let that stop you!
Click on File
In there you see an option called:
Install new fonts
When you click that, you get the option to browse to
the folder where you keep the stuff you get via Skype.
It ignores all other files and just shows you the fonts
that you have in that folder. Highlight the ones you
want to install and hit OK.That's all there is to it.
Have FUN!

Nearly a dozen central Florida firefighters pulled a
2-month-old foal from some deep doo-doo after the
little horse fell into a septic tank.Rescuers spent more than an hour Tuesday using hoses and
ropes to save the animal who escaped with his mother Reba
from a fenced in area.When Reba crossed over a septic tank, her weight either
broke or displaced the cover and Shooter fell into about 3
feet of foul water.Shooter was rescued, smelly but unharmed, with only
minor cuts.http://www.happynews.com/news/3192008/f … c-tank.htm

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
Buying Headphones
When buying headphones, consider how they feel in your ears.
If they aren't comfortable, you won't want to use them in the
first place. Be sure to ask the store manager if the ear
phones can be returned if you try them out and they are
too uncomfortable.

Grandpa was celebrating his 100th birthday and everybody
complimented him on how athletic and well-preserved he
appeared.“Gentlemen, I will tell you the secret of my success,” he
cackled. “I have been in the open air day after day for
some 75 years now.”The celebrants were impressed and asked how he
managed to keep up his rigorous fitness regime.“Well, you see my wife and I were married 75 years ago.
On our wedding night, we made a solemn pledge. Whenever
we had a fight, the one who was proved wrong would go
outside and take a walk.”
