Happy Thanksgiving!

dontpanic — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 02:57:13 GMT

I know it's an American holiday, so happy 27 November the the rest of the world!

So, I can't put any Christmas decorations up until after Thanksgiving, and even now, I can't put up any Christmas decorations until after Saturday's OU vs. OSU bedlam football game. (Go OSU!) That's because my place is decked in OSU stuff right now. I have to represent because I live in Norman, OK - which is home to OU. And I must compensate for the disgusting red and white I see everywhere with my own orange and black.

So today, Fox Sports Southwest (a regional tv channel) was airing condensed versions of the last decade of OU vs. OSU games. While me, my mom, my two brothers, one of my friends, and my friend's niece were all eating dinner, the 2001 game was showing. Now, I remember these games, so I know we won that one. I also know that when we won...OU was ranked #4 in the nation and had the opportunity to potentially play for the national championship. We took that away from them (squish, squish) and it was awesome.

Everyone present at the dinner was also an OSU fan...except for one of my brothers. That misguided boy cheers for OU, and I promise he didn't learn that shit from me. I did everything I could to raise those boys right. Anyway, I spent the dinner saying things like "c'mon Cowboys! Let's go Pokes!" and "shake it off guys, we can take them!" and "hold 'em defense!" as if it were a live game. Then when we scored the go-ahead touchdown, I screamed and yelled and cheered. Then, I spent the rest of the 4th quarter saying things like "don't look so down, Shawn, you guys still have a few minutes on the clock. You could come from behind still." Of course, my brother remembers the game, too. He was getting pissed and I just kept laughing. What a lovely Thanksgiving!!!

Anyway, I am rambling about all this because on Saturday, my Cowboys will be playing the Sooners again, and OU is ranked #3 in the nation. If they beat us, they will most likely end up playing for a national championship. But we have the opportunity to make them cry again! We have the opportunity to take it all away. And that'll make the win that much sweeter....

Is this your number?

Well, ok, it worked, but I need a mathematician to tell me how. (Well, I am blonde!) HERE

Crazy economic concept

Buddha99 — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 22:57:08 GMT

The economy is due to contract about 1.5 - 2% next year. Unemployment is due to grow by 1 million to almost 3 million in the UK

Listen to this....There is only 1 way that we can prevent this...and you may either find this against your principles or not possible, but there is only one single way that we can prevent this.

We all need to produce 2% more, for no extra cost, than we did this year. This is the only way that we can stop the economy from contracting, and for this Nation to become poorer in relative terms. The only way.

Me. Well, I can afford to put 5% extra in, for no extra cost. Some may not be able to afford such a sacrifice.

Think of a USB Gadget

Shiola — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 17:23:59 GMT

I launched a new site a few months back about USB gadgets. I just added a new feature called 'Think of a USB Gadget' - now I just need some people to think of some ideas and add them to the site to make it look busier than it is :)

Go here - http://www.usbtastic.co.uk/think-of-a-usb-gadget/ - and add any old idea. A memory stick shoved in an apple to make an apple memory stick is fine. It's more of a fun thing than a serious hunt for geniune ideas.

Please
Be Extremely Careful
especially if using internet mail such as Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL and so on.

This information arrived this morning direct from both Microsoft and Norton.

Please send it to everybody you know who has access to the Internet.

You may receive an apparently harmless email with a Power Point presentation
'Life is beautiful.'

If you receive it DO NOT OPEN THE FILE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES , and delete it immediately .

If you open this file, a message will appear on your screen saying: 'It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful.'

Subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC and the person who sent it to you will gain access to your name, e-mail and password.

This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon.

AOL has already confirmed the severity, and the antivirus software's are not capable of destroying it.

The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself 'life owner.'

PLEASE SEND A COPY OF THIS EMAIL TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS and ask them to PASS IT ON IMMEDIATELY

I am (quote) blantantly ignorant to the dynamics of economic theory, blinded by simplistic political jargon, woefully ignorant of political achievement, and star0struck by a racist Southern rocker...

All because of a write up I sent to the school paper?

COOL!

They want factual backup? Yeah, I got that. Straight out of the mouths of members of The Foundation for Economic Education...

Who do you vote for?

phoenix — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 19:25:37 GMT

Question 1:
If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?

Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.

Question 2:
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates.

Candidate A.
Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with an astrologist. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.

Candidate B.
He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C.
He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, only drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.

Which of these candidates would be your choice? Decide first ... no peeking, then scroll down for the response.

Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.

And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question: If you said YES, you just killed Beethoven.
