Ultimate Boot CD 4.0
Author: UltimateBootCD.Com
Date: 2007-03-12
Size: 87.7 Mb
License: Freeware
Requires: Win All
You need the Ultimate Boot CD if you want to:
Run floppy-based diagnostic tools from CDROM drives. More and more PCs are shipped without floppy drives these days, and it is such a royal pain when you need to run diagnostic tools on them.
Free yourself from the slow loading speed of the floppy drive. Even if you do have a floppy drive, it is still much much faster to run your diagnostic tools from the CDROM drive, rather than wait for the tool to load from the floppy drive.
Consolidate as many diagnostic tools as possible into one bootable CD. Wouldn't you like to avoid digging into the dusty box to look for the right floppy disk, but simply run them all from a single CD? Then the Ultimate Boot CD is for you!
This will create an ISO image which you can use to create a bootable CD with your favorite CD burning software.

Good evening to all......
Here's a funny from a friend.....
"Do You Want To Go To Heaven!?..."
Father Murphy walked into a pub in Donegal, and said to the first man he meets, "Do you want to go to heaven?"
The man said, "I do Father."
The priest said, "Then leave this pub right now!" and approached a second man. "Do you want to go to heaven?"
"Certainly, Father," was the man's reply.
"Then leave this den of Satan," said the priest, as he walked up to O'Toole.
"Do you want to go to heaven?"
"No, I don't Father," O'Toole replied.
The priest looked him right in the eye, and said, "You mean to tell me that when you die you don't want to go to heaven?"
O'Toole smiled, "Oh, when I die, yes, Father. I thought you were getting a group together to go right now."

Hello All! I'm doing some serious cleaning in my office today but wanted to stop by and say hello. I think that last time I actually cleaned it was 1998 if my pay stubs are any indicator, which I think they are. Serious junk to throw out like eight years worth of phone books, about thirty loose-leaf binders of policies I never looked at etc. I hope everyone is well!

My desk looks like a bomb exploded and if my wife moves anything I'm lost. I know what's at the bottom of each pile on my desk. They're not orderly enough to be stacks and some flow into others. ;) As long as it's mine, I'll just rotate the pile contents. I've got everything on here from grooming needs to model cars, empty cereal boxes (collectible) to cycle parts, and sports gear to a dissecting kit (leftover from college labs, works great for models and other fine work).
By the way, how's the back coming along?

@Pac....the back is doing o.k.; thanks for asking! It has a mind of its own; sometimes, like today it barely hurts while at others, there is all hell to pay. After some 26 years of this, I'm pretty use to it and, strage as it sounds, I've come to know what its going to do before it does it (Knock on wood LOL!)

Good evening to all.....
Here is something that my mother sent me......OMGosh I LOL'd for longer than I should've. *grins*
A class of 1st graders were learning to identify colors and tastes using a bowl of lifesavers.
The children began to say:
Red......................Cherry
Yellow................Lemon
Green...................Lime
Orange.................Orange
Finally the teacher gave them all HONEY lifesavers. After eating them, none of the children could identify the taste.
"Well," she said, "I will give you all a clue... It's what your mother may sometimes call your father."
One little girl looked up in horror, spit her lifesaver out and yelled, "Oh my gosh!! They're A$$HOLES!"

Good Evening All.
After a night of drinking, Steve crept into bed beside his wife who was
already asleep. He gave her a peck on the cheek and fell asleep.
When he awoke he found a strange man standing at the end of his bed wearing
a long flowing white robe. "Who the hell are you?" demanded Steve, "and what
are you doing in my bedroom?"
The mysterious Man answered, "This isn't your bedroom and I'm St. Peter".
Steve was stunned, "You mean I'm dead!!! That can't be, I have so much too
live for, I haven't said goodbye to my family... you've got to send me back
right away".
St Peter replied, "Yes, you can be reincarnated but there is a
catch. We can only send you back as a dog or a hen."
Steve was devastated, but knowing there was a farm not far from his house,
he asked to be sent back as a hen. A flash of light later, he was covered in
feathers and clucking around pecking the ground. "This ain't so bad" he
thought until he felt this strange feeling welling up inside him.
The farmyard rooster strolled over and said, "So you're the new hen, how are
you enjoying your first day here?"
"It's not so bad," replies Steve, "but I have this strange feeling inside
like I'm about to explode".
"You're ovulating," explained the rooster, "don't tell me you've never laid
an egg before."
"Never," replies Steve. "Well just relax and let it happen." And so he did
and after a few uncomfortable seconds later, an egg pops out from under his
tail. An immense feeling of relief swept over him and his emotions got the
better of him as he experienced motherhood for the first time. When he laid
his second egg, the feeling of happiness was overwhelming and he knew that
being reincarnated as a hen was the best thing that had happened to him
.ever!!!
The joy kept coming and as he was just about to lay his third egg he felt an
enormous smack on the back of his head and heard his wife shouting, "Steve,
wake up you drunken bastard, you're shi**ing in the bed!

Afternoon All!
Women getting the oil changed at Jiffy Lube:
My gf's neice had a friend that took hers there to get changed. The dumba**'s there put the plug in,but didn't put the oil in. She left the lube place and blew the motor.
They'll also tell women 5000+ things that are wrong with their car and sucker them into spending more $$$$$
Quote:
37) Get pulled over: arrested for driving under the influence.
I got a buddy at work who got 1 of them a couple months back. It's costing him way more than that. He has to wear an ankle bracelet/gps locator for 5 more months. The rent for that Locator ankle bracelet= $800 a month. Over $4000 + for that GPS locator ,attorney fees,$1000 fine,already served 30 day ankle bracelet/house arrest while waiting for his court date/impounded his vehicle and probably charged $30+ a day till he gets his driving privileges back. I'll bet it'll cost him easily $15,000 + after it's done,and then there's the High risk insurance premiums. He had to pull $16 G's out of his 401K.
The Kicker: The Judge has an impending DUI case going against her plus drug charges, LOL. What a Judge!! Punish everyone,but she'll get away scott-free!!!
Don't Drink and Drive!!!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day?
ABOUT SAINT PATRICK
Saint Patrick is believed to have been born in the late fourth century, and is often confused with Palladius, a bishop who was sent by Pope Celestine in 431 to be the first bishop to the Irish believers in Christ.
Saint Patrick was the patron saint and national apostle of Ireland who is credited with bringing christianity to Ireland. Most of what is known about him comes from his two works, the Confessio, a spiritual autobiography, and his Epistola, a denunciation of British mistreatment of Irish christians. Saint Patrick described himself as a "most humble-minded man, pouring forth a continuous paean of thanks to his Maker for having chosen him as the instrument whereby multitudes who had worshipped idols and unclean things had become the people of God."
Saint Patrick is most known for driving the snakes from Ireland. It is true there are no snakes in Ireland, but there probably never have been - the island was separated from the rest of the continent at the end of the Ice Age. As in many old pagan religions, serpent symbols were common and often worshipped. Driving the snakes from Ireland was probably symbolic of putting an end to that pagan practice. While not the first to bring christianity to Ireland, it is Patrick who is said to have encountered the Druids at Tara and abolished their pagan rites. The story holds that he converted the warrior chiefs and princes, baptizing them and thousands of their subjects in the "Holy Wells" that still bear this name.
There are several accounts of Saint Patrick's death. One says that Patrick died at Saul, Downpatrick, Ireland, on March 17, 460 A.D. His jawbone was preserved in a silver shrine and was often requested in times of childbirth, epileptic fits, and as a preservative against the "evil eye." Another account says that St. Patrick ended his days at Glastonbury, England and was buried there. The Chapel of St. Patrick still exists as part of Glastonbury Abbey. Today, many Catholic places of worship all around the world are named after St. Patrick, including cathedrals in New York and Dublin city
Why Saint Patrick's Day?
Saint Patrick's Day has come to be associated with everything Irish: anything green and gold, shamrocks and luck. Most importantly, to those who celebrate its intended meaning, St. Patrick's Day is a traditional day for spiritual renewal and offering prayers for missionaries worldwide.
So, why is it celebrated on March 17th? One theory is that that is the day that St. Patrick died. Since the holiday began in Ireland, it is believed that as the Irish spread out around the world, they took with them their history and celebrations. The biggest observance of all is, of course, in Ireland. With the exception of restaurants and pubs, almost all businesses close on March 17th. Being a religious holiday as well, many Irish attend mass, where March 17th is the traditional day for offering prayers for missionaries worldwide before the serious celebrating begins.
In American cities with a large Irish population, St. Patrick's Day is a very big deal. Big cities and small towns alike celebrate with parades, "wearing of the green," music and songs, Irish food and drink, and activities for kids such as crafts, coloring and games. Some communities even go so far as to dye rivers or streams green!

Good morning all! Many places in Philly had their St. Patrick day celebrations last weekend and I'm sure they're glad they did...looking out the window (I haven't been out yet) it looks like the city is covered in about 10 inches of ice, not snow. Looks like a real beauty. I left the office early yesterday and the blowing ice hurt like hell on you skin like you were being repeatedly stung. I'll have to put on my boots and shades and go people watching. As always, the city hasn't plowed anything yet and when they do, they'll leave the plows six inches off the ground lol!
