    Redneck Computing

    You know you’re a good ol’ boy computer operator if…

    * You can’t understand why the spell checker on your word processing software doesn’t recognize the words “col’beer”, “hon”, and “frog-strangler”.

    * One thing that bothers you is how hardly anyone who sends out e-mail has a handle. You get the itch to start a message with the words, “Hey, good buddy, you got your ears on?”

    * You can’t figure out why Microsoft doesn’t have its own NASCAR team. I mean, if it’s good enough for Cheerios, Valvoline, and the Cartoon Network, it ought to be good enough for Bill Gates, right?

    I fucked your mom

    Three guys are drinking in a bar, when another man comes in and starts drinking at the bar. After a while he approaches the guys, and pointing at the one in the middle, shouts I’ve fucked your mom! The three guys look bewildered and the man resumes drinking at the bar. Ten minutes later he comes back and screams, ‘Your mom’s sucked my cock! Ten more minutes and the same thing happens. He announces loudly, I’ve had your mom up the ass! The young guys have had enough of this, and the one in the middle stands up and shouts, Dad, you’re fuck’n drunk, go home!”

    A fly in your beer?

    An Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walk into a pub together. They each buy a pint of Guinness. Just as they are about to enjoy their creamy beverages, a fly lands in each of their pints and gets stuck in the head.

    The Englishman pushes his beer away in disgust.

    The Scotsman fishes the fly out and continues drinking as if nothing happened.

    The Irishman also picks the fly out of his drink, but then holds it out over the beer and yells, ‘Spit it out! Spit it out, you bastard!”

    blonde handyman

    A blonde, wanting to earn some money, decided to hire herself out as a handyman-type and started canvassing a wealthy neighborhood. She went to the front door of the first house and asked the owner if he had any jobs for her to do.

    “Well, you can paint my porch. How much will you charge?”
    The blonde said, “How about 50 dollars?” The man agreed and told her that the paint and ladders that she might need were in the garage. The man’s wife, inside the house, heard the conversation and said to her husband, “Does she realize that the porch goes all the way around the house?”
    The man replied, “She should. She was standing on the porch.”

    A short time later, the blonde came to the door to collect her money.
    “You’re finished already?” he asked. “Yes,” the blonde answered, “and I had paint left over, so I gave it two coats. “Impressed, the man reached in his pocket for the $50. “And by the way,” the blonde added, “that’s not a Porch, it’s a Ferrari.”

    Jackass Truck Driver

    There was this guy at a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half of an hour.

    Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down. The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says, “Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I’ll buy you another drink. I just can’t stand to see a man cry.”

    “No, it’s not that. This day is the worst of my life. First, I fall asleep, and I go late to my office. My boss, outrageous, fires me. When I leave the building, to my car, I found out it was stolen. The police said that they can do nothing. I get a cab to return home, and when I leave it, I remember I left my wallet and credit cards there. The cab driver just drives away.”

    “I go home, and when I get there, I find my wife in bed with the gardener. I leave home, and come to this bar. And just when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drink my poison.”

    Choose you Vader…Vader old and new (or is it new and old?)

    conceptual-darth-vader-helmet.jpg (44 KB)

    mask_darth_vader_twopiece.jpg (23 KB)

    Whilst it would be all too easy to view this Conceptual Darth Vader Helmet, realised by Kropserkel Design, as a refreshingly modern take on Darth Vader’s Helmet, the somewhat surprising fact is that, though it undoubtedly looks more modern than the original as featured in the cult sci-fi Star Wars films, this work is actually based on Ralph McQuarrie’s original illustrations that subsequently evolved into Vader as we know him today.

    Perhaps serving as testament to the widely accepted idea that style and trends tend to repeat themselves in somewhat of a cycle (rather than evolving in a merely linear fashion), were we to place the original Darth Vader Helmet and this conceptual model together and ask which of the two was the more modern design we’ll warrant, with some confidence, that those asked would label this conceptual work as indisputably being a modern interpretation of the original. And, to be fair, who could blame them?

    Darth Vader New and Old

    Vader old and new (or is it new and old?)

    Rather than merely paraphrase the original text concerning this fascinating project here we would urge those interested to stop by the Kropserkel website for further information concerning the realization of Darth Vader as he may have been (its a great read).

    vin_mariani_1896.jpg (172 KB)

    Mariani\’s wine) was a tonic created circa 1863 by Angelo Mariani, a chemist who became intrigued with coca and its economic potential after reading Paolo Mantegazza’s paper on coca\’s effects. In 1863 Mariani started marketing a wine called Vin Mariani which was made from Bordeaux wine treated with coca leaves.The ethanol in the wine acted as a solvent and extracted the cocaine from the coca leaves, altering the drink’s effect. It originally contained 6 mg of cocaine per fluid ounce of wine, but Vin Mariani which was to be exported contained 7.2 mg per ounce in order to compete with the higher cocaine content of similar drinks in the United States.
    Vin Mariani was very popular in its day, even among royalty such as Queen Victoria of Great Britain and Ireland. Pope Leo XIII and later Pope Saint Pius X were both Vin Mariani drinkers. Pope Leo awarded a Vatican gold medal to the wine, and also appeared on a poster endorsing it.
    Thomas Edison also endorsed the wine, claiming it helped him stay awake for longer hours.

    There was a moment of silence while she smiled, and he realized what he’d just said. He then closed his book, got back in his patrol car and left. She was laughing too hard to start her car.

    world’s greatest divorce letter

    Dear Connie,

    I know the counselor said we shouldn’t contact each other during our ‘cooling off period, but I couldn’t wait anymore. The day you left, I swore I’d never talk to you again. But that was just the wounded little boy in me talking. Still, I never wanted to be the first one to make contact. In my fantasies, it was always you who would come crawling back to me. I guess my pride needed that. But now I see that my pride has cost me a lot of things. I’m tired of pretending I don’t miss you. I don’t care about looking bad anymore. I don’t care who makes the first move as long as one of us does.

    Maybe it’s time we let our hearts speak as loudly as our hurt. And this is what my heart says ‘There’s no one like you, Connie. I look for you in the eyes and breasts of every woman I see, but they’re not you. They’re not even close. Two weeks ago, I met this girl at Raffles and brought her home with me. I don’t say this to hurt you, but just to illustrate the depth of my desperation.

    She was young, maybe 20, with one of those perfect bodies that only youth and maybe a childhood spent roller skating can give you. I mean, just a perfect body. Tits like you wouldn’t believe and an ass that just wouldn’t quit. Every man’s dream, right? But as I sat on the couch being blown by this stunner, I thought, look at the stuff we’ve made important in our lives. It’s all so superficial.

    What does a perfect body mean? Does it make her better in bed? Well, in this case, yes, but you see what I’m getting at. Does it make her a better person? Does she have a better heart than my moderately attractive Connie? I doubt it. And I’m never really thought of that before.

    I don’t know, maybe I’m just growing up a little. Later, after I tossed her about a pint of throat yogurt, I found myself thinking, ‘Why do I feel so drained and empty? It wasn’t just her flawless technique or her slutty, shameless hunger, but something else. Some nagging feeling of loss. Why did it feel so incomplete? And then it hit me. It didn’t feel the same because you weren’t there to watch. Do you know what I mean? Nothing feels the same without you. Jesus, Connie, I’m just going crazy without you. And everything I do just reminds me of you.

    Do you remember Suzanne, that single mom we met at the Holiday Inn lounge last year? Well, she dropped by last week with a pan of lasagna. She said she figured I wasn’t eating right without a woman around. I didn’t know what she meant till later, but that’s not the real story.

    Anyway, we had a few glasses of wine and the next thing you know, we’re banging away in our old bedroom. And this tart’s a total monster in the sack. She’s giving me everything, you know, like a real woman does when she’s not hung up about her weight or her career and whether the kids can hear us. And all of a sudden, she spots that tilting mirror on your grandmother’s old vanity. So she puts it on the floor and we straddle it, right, so we can watch ourselves. And it’s totally hot, but it makes me sad, too. Cause I can’t help thinking, ‘Why didn’t Connie ever put the mirror on the floor? We’ve had this old vanity for what, 14 years, and we never used it as a sex toy.

    Saturday, your sister drops by with my copy of the restraining order. I mean, Vicky’s just a kid and all, but she’s got a pretty good head on her shoulders and she’s been a real friend to me during this painful time. She’s given me lots of good advice about you and about women in general. She’s pulling for us to get back together, Connie, she really is. So we’re doing Jell-O shots in a hot bubble bath and talking about happier times. Here’s this teenage girl with the same DNA as you and all I can do is think of how much she looked like you when you were 18. And that just about makes me cry.

    And then it turns out Vicky’s really into the whole anal thing, that gets me to thinking about how many times I pressured you about trying it and how that probably fueled some of the bitterness between us. But do you see how even then, when I’m thrusting inside your baby sister’s cinnamon ring, all I can do is think of you. It’s true, Connie. In your heart you must know it. Don’t you think we could start over? Just wipe out all the grievances away and start fresh? I think we can.

    If you feel the same please, please, please let me know.

    Otherwise, can you let me know where the f**king remote is?

    Love, Dan

    On a more serious positive note 🙂 LOL..(which happened in reality and in history by the way)..These photos are part of my trip down in southeast asia..of what was left from WWII..battery of canons, tunnels, barracks, ruins, canteen flasks etc…the whole island is a museum.

    These “disappearing canons” were part of the fortifications done by us, Americans between 1922-1932 @ Batterry Geary and battery Crockett in Isla del Corregidor.

    According to the war plan, these forts were supposed to be able to make a six-month stand. The fortifications were designed solely to beat off a seaborne attack. When our military planners realized that airplanes would one day render Fort Mills obsolete, the U.S. was restricted from improving the fortifications by the Washington Naval Treaty of 1922.

    Battery Geary was a battery of eight 13-ton, 12-inch mortars. This battery, when pinpointed by the Japanese, was subjected to heavy shelling. One direct hit by a 240-mm shell, which detonated the magazines of this battery in May 1942, proved to be the most crippling shot during the entire siege. This shelling tossed the mortars around, one to a distance of 150 yards (140 m), another was blown through three feet of reinforced concrete wall into the adjoining powder magazine of Battery Crockett. Large chunks of steel were blown as far as the Malinta Tunnel, killing 27 of the battery crew instantly. Also, one mortar still had a live round in its breech, and it was in the process of firing the shell when the magazine was hit.

    Talk about the price of freedom.

    The 45 star American flag was adopted after Utah became a US State. The flag went unchanged for 12 years, from July 4th, 1896 to July 3rd, 1908, when Oklahoma became a state.

    “We shall not forget”. In honor of our fallen soldiers.

    The Boston Molasses Disaster

    BostonMolassesDisaster.jpg (154 KB)

    molasses.jpg (223 KB)

    also known as the Great Molasses Flood and the Great Boston Molasses Tragedy, occurred on January 15, 1919, in the North End neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts in the United States. A large molasses tank burst, and a wave of molasses rushed through the streets at an estimated 35 mph (56 km/h), killing 21 and injuring 150. The event has entered local folklore, and residents claim that on hot summer days, the area still smells of molasses.[1]

    The disaster occurred at the Purity Distilling Company facility on January 15, 1919, an unusually warm day. At the time, molasses was the standard sweetener in the United States. Molasses can also be fermented to produce rum and ethyl alcohol, the active ingredient in other alcoholic beverages and a key component in the manufacturing of munitions at the time.[2] The stored molasses was awaiting transfer to the Purity plant situated between Willow Street and what is now named Evereteze Way in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
    Near Keany Square,[3] at 529 Commercial Street, a huge molasses tank 50 ft (15 m) tall, 90 ft (27 m) in diameter and containing as much as 2,300,000 US gal (8,700,000 L) collapsed. Witnesses stated that as it collapsed, there was a loud rumbling sound like a machine gun as the rivets shot out of the tank, and that the ground shook as if a train were passing by.[4]
    The collapse unleashed an immense wave of molasses between 8 and 15 ft (2.5 to 4.5 m) high, moving at 35 mph (56 km/h), and exerting a pressure of 2 ton/ft² (200 kPa).[5] The molasses wave was of sufficient force to break the girders of the adjacent Boston Elevated Railway\’s Atlantic Avenue structure and lift a train off the tracks. Nearby, buildings were swept off their foundations and crushed. Several blocks were flooded to a depth of 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90 cm). As described by author Stephen Puleo,
    Molasses, waist deep, covered the street and swirled and bubbled about the wreckage. Here and there struggled a form — whether it was animal or human being was impossible to tell. Only an upheaval, a thrashing about in the sticky mass, showed where any life was… Horses died like so many flies on sticky fly-paper. The more they struggled, the deeper in the mess they were ensnared. Human beings — men and women — suffered likewise.[6]
    The Boston Globe reported that people “were picked up by a rush of air and hurled many feet.” Others had debris hurled at them from the rush of sweet-smelling air. A truck was picked up and hurled into Boston Harbor. Approximately 150 were injured; 21 people and several horses were killed — some were crushed and drowned by the molasses. The wounded included people, horses, and dogs; coughing fits became one of the most common ailments after the initial blast.
    Anthony di Stasio, walking homeward with his sisters from the Michelangelo School, was picked up by the wave and carried, tumbling on its crest, almost as though he were surfing. Then he grounded and the molasses rolled him like a pebble as the wave diminished. He heard his mother call his name and couldn\’t answer, his throat was so clogged with the smothering goo. He passed out, then opened his eyes to find three of his sisters staring at him.[1]

    Half Deep

    Coming to a river with which he was unfamiliar, a traveller asked a
    youngster if it was deep.

    ‘No, replied the boy, and the rider started to cross, but soon found
    that he and his horse had to swim for their lives.

    When the traveller reached the other side he turned and shouted: ‘I
    thought you said it wasn’t deep?

    ‘It isn’t, was the reply; ‘it only takes grandfather’s ducks up to
    their middles!

    Love the translation:

    “Magic of computer is a devil’s magic. Youth gets destruction of integrity of reality, the perceptance of the around life is being torn to pieces, like a computer game in which you can restart as many times as you like from the beginning. Young people turn into bio-robots and it’s very pity.”

    Two informally dressed ladies happened to start up a conversation during an endless wait in the LAX airport.

    The first lady was an arrogant California woman married to a wealthy man.

    The second was a well mannered elderly woman from the South.

    When the conversation centered on whether they had any children, the California woman started by saying, ‘When my first child was born, my husband built a beautiful mansion for me.

    The lady from the South commented, ‘Well, isn’t that precious?

    The first woman continued, ‘When my second child was born, my husband bought me a beautiful Mercedes-Benz

    Again, the lady from the South commented, ‘Well, isn’t that precious?

    The first woman continued boasting, ‘Then, when my third child was born, my husband bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet.

    Yet again, the Southern lady commented, ‘Well, isn’t that precious?

    The first woman then asked her companion, ‘What did your husband buy for you when you had your first child?

    ‘My husband sent me to charm school, declared the Southern lady.

    “Charm school? the first woman cried, ‘Oh, my God! What on earth for?

    The Southern lady responded, ‘Well for example, instead of saying, ‘Who gives a shit? I learned to say, ‘Well, isn’t that precious .
