Nothing fixes a thing so intensely in the memory as the wish to forget it.

"Either you run the day or the day runs you."
--- Jim Rohn:
Imelda reported for her University PHD final examination
which consists of "yes/no" type questions. She takes her
seat in the examination hall, stares at the question paper
for five minutes, and then in a fit of inspiration takes her
purse out, removes a coin and starts tossing the coin and
marking the answer sheet - Yes for Heads and No for Tails.
Within half an hour she is all done whereas the rest of the
class is sweating it out. During the last few minutes, she
is seen desperately throwing the coin, swearing and
sweating.
The moderator, alarmed, approaches her and asks what is
going on.
"I finished the exam in half and hour. But, she says, I am
rechecking my answers, and half of them are wrong !"
An airport ticketing agent was working at the counter
and began asking a passenger the required security questions.
"Have you received any objects from an unknown person to carry
aboard the airplane today?"
"No," said the woman.
"Did you pack your own suitcase?" she inquired,
pointing to the traveler's rolling carry-on bag.
"Yes," she answered.
"Has your bag been under your control since you've been
in the airport?"
"Well, no, not exactly," the passenger said with a sigh.
"The silly thing keeps either trying to go every which way,
or else it's trying to trip me. I feel like I am under IT's control."

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD
goes to Von Nicholas Stevens, 39 of Townsend, Montana
Drunk fakes report of being shot
An intoxicated Townsend man is being charged for numerous
offenses, including lying to officials about being shot.
Officials responded to a 911 call about an apparent shooting
Tuesday night. A female caller said Von Nicholas Stevens, 39,
was headed to St. Peter’s Hospital with a gunshot wound,
Broadwater County Sgt. Nick Korthals said.
Korthals said he informed members of the Helena Police
Department, Lewis and Clark County Sheriff’s Department,
and hospital personnel who were on hand waiting at the
emergency room.
Stevens never arrived at the hospital.
Korthals contacted Stevens by phone. He said he’d run out of
gas near Lakeside and was shot and in pain. Stevens told the
alleged victim to stay where he was and someone would be
out to get him.
Medical personnel arrived on the scene and found a small
scratch on Stevens’ ear and some dried blood, but no sign
of a gunshot wound.
Korthals said he had several deputies interview people who
had been with Stevens at some point throughout the night,
but no one mentioned shots being fired. Stevens accused a
man of shooting him. That man can be seen on video
surveillance cameras at a local Helena sports bar during the
time of the alleged shooting, Korthals said.
“Mr. Stevens continued to change his story,” Korthals said.
Stevens was charged with driving with a suspended license
and is scheduled to appear in court on Monday. Korthals said
more charges are pending and he anticipates citing Stevens
for obstructing justice and false reporting, and DUI, etc,
but the investigation is ongoing.

Re: Dumped and lost icon
Dear Webby,
There was a new icon on my desktop toolbar that was really bugging
me so I went to control panel and unloaded it. OOPS, now I can't play
my music. Apparently realtek high definition something or other is what
drives the CD's. Dummy that I am, I have no idea how to get it back.
Can you help - Please. Thanking you advance,
Patti
Dear Patti
Search for that program.
If you didn't change the defaults in your Windoze to something smarter,
it probably dumped it into the dumbest place possible: C:\Program Files
If you have a smart set-up, it would be in E:\TOOLS or similar place.
Find the program, look for an exe file,but not the setup.exe, and try
starting the program with it. Once you have found the right file,
make a shortcut to it, and drag it onto the desktop.
if you can't find that file, then you completely UN-installed it, and
have to download it again. If you bought that program, then you
should still have a payment receipt with download instructions
and possibly a registration key.
Have FUN!

Before Linda got married, she was quite the beauty, and didn't mind letting
her boyfriend know it, too.
"A lot of men are gonna be totally miserable when I marry," she told him.
"Really?" asked the boyfriend, "And just how many men are you intending
to marry?"

Getting The Most Of Your Post-Christmas Shopping
The Christmas frenzy frenzy is over and retailers are still
trying to move merchandise from their shelves. Now is the time
to shop if you can think ahead some. I gather up my discount
bucks I got from buying before Christmas. While I was out
before Christmas, I gave out my email address and got
more online coupons. Any special day passes I may have
gotten, I get that too. Just to make it a little bit better, I
can shop on senior citizen day and take my mother or
sister. A recent trip to a popular department store had
me buying Christmas and Thanksgiving items at 95% off.
Seasonal items will be the heaviest discounted. Avoid
food items because they will not save well. Wrap scented
candles in cellophane and store in a cool place to extend
their scent.

The 75-year-old man sat down in the orthopedic surgeon's

anyone I know. Must be many hundreds!"

from scrunching up in all those uncomfortable positions," the medic said.
"Naw," the old fellow replied. "I want to borrow your Lamborghini!"

Donald MacDonald from the Isle of Skye went to study at an English
university and was living in the hall of residence with all the
other students there. After he had been there a month, his
mother came to visit him.
"And how do you find the English students, Donald?" she
asked.
"Mother," he replied, "they're such terrible, noisy people. The
one on that side keeps banging his head on the wall and won't
stop. The one on the other side screams and screams all
night."
"Oh Donald! How do you manage to put up with these awful
noisy English neighbors?"
"Mother, I do nothing. I just ignore them. I just stay here
quietly, playing my bagpipes."
