Collecting our many suitcases, the ten of us entered the cramped customs area. A young customs official watched our entourage in disbelief, "Ma'am," he said, "do all these children and this luggage belong to you?" "Yes, sir," my mother said with a sigh. "They're all mine." The customs agent began his interrogation: "Ma'am, do you have any weapons, contraband or illegal drugs in your possession?" "Sir," she calmly answered, "if I'd had any of those items, I would have used them by now." ___________________________________________________ if you can spare a coin, please hit paypal with it! ___________________________________________________ A group of senior citizens were exchanging notes about their ailments.

"My blood pressure pills make my dizzy." "I guess that's the price we pay for getting old." "Well, it's not all bad. We should be thankful that we can still drive!" ____________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ Three golfers were playing a round with their local pro. After the pro drove right down the middle, the first member stepped up, went through his normal routine and proceeded to duck hook his shot OB. He turned to the pro and asked, "What did I do wrong?" "LOFT!" said the pro. The second guy went through his practice swing, set up and skulled his drive down to the ladies tee. Again , he turned to the pro and asked, "What did I do wrong?" "LOFT!" said the pro. Finally, the third guy takes his turn and hit a screaming boomerang slice into the drink. "What did I do wrong?," he asked. "LOFT!" said the pro. As they proceeded down the fairway, one of the members turned to the pro and said, "Hey, we all hit terrible but different shots off the tee and you said 'LOFT!' for every one. What's loft?

W11 is even worse than W10. Which Linux do you use? Archie Dear Archie As you probably noticed, there are many different versions. I Use Cent-OS on the servers. That is basically Red-Hat, without Support, but is free. You have probably seen pictures of COSTCO sized Server Farms with rows and rows of cabinets full of machines, and Walmart sized basement with pretty colorful coolant pipes. They all use Cent-OS. The support is provided by the web hosts, who rent servers. Stay away from those. What you need is just one domain, that you rent from a web host, or any version of Linux running on your home machine, and supported by a friendly Penguin (Linux afficionado). Expect to pay them a bit now and then to teach and coach you. My teachers and coaches are in Kharkiv, Ukraine. If you find one in walking distance, that of course is even better. Just spread the word that you are looking for a Penguin, maybe even join an online user group. Have FUN!

He described a typical day this way: Well, yesterday afternoon, I waded along the edge of a lake, drank eight beers, escaped from wild dogs in the heavy brush, jumped away from an aggressive rattlesnake, marched up and down several rocky hills, stood in a patch of poison ivy, crawled out of quicksand and took four leaks behind big trees. Inspired by the story, the doctor said,You must be one hell of an outdoorsman! NAH,he replied,I'm just a shitty golfer. ______________________________________________ Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
