The population of this country is 300 million.
-160 million are retired.
That leaves 140 million to do the work.
-There are 85 million in school.
Which leaves 55 million to do the work.
-Of this there are 35 million employed by the federal government.
Leaving 15 million to do the work.
-2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama
Bin-Laden.
Which leaves 12.2 million to do the work.
-Take from that total the 10.8 million people who work for state
and city governments.
And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.
-At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals.
Leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.
-Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons.
That leaves just two people to do the work.
You and me.
And there you are,
Sitting on your ass,
At your computer, reading jokes.
Nice. Real nice.

Just like Internet Explorer, Firefox has a default to only allow you to download only 2 items at the same time. Changing this, is not as simple as going into your Preferences and changing a setting?
To change this to allow 10 (or more) simultaneous downloads. Do the following:
Open a new Firefox browser window.
Then in the address bar type about:config then hit enter
Next scroll down and locate the setting for:
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server
Double Click on it and change the value to a 10 (or whatever you want)
You da man ireland!!!!!
Changed and running just great. Thanks goes out to YE!!

Life After Death
A couple made a deal that whoever died first would come
back and inform the other of the after life. The woman's
biggest fear was that there was no heaven.
After a long life, the husband was the first to go, and true to
his word, he made contact. "Mary... Mary..."
"Is that you Fred?"
"Yes, I have come back like we agreed."
"Well, what is it like?"
"Well, when I get up in the morning I have sex, then I have
breakfast, then I have sex again, then I bathe in the sun,
then I have sex twice more, then I have lunch, then I have
sex all afternoon and into the early evening, until bedtime.
And, then, I start all over again the next day."
"Oh Fred, you surely must be in heaven."
"Hell no, Mary, I'm a rabbit in Kansas."

HELLO
ACCESS YOUR ZUNE WITH WINDOWS EXPLORER.......... The Microsoft Zune portable media player contains a miniature hard drive that is used to store your music files, videos and pictures. Unlike most other portable media players, iPods, MP4 players and the like, the Zune does not appear as an external hard drive in My Computer. You cannot copy files to and from it using Windows Explorer. You have to use the somewhat clunky Zune software to add and remove files. This article describes how you can make your Zune portable media player appear to your computer as a portable hard drive so that you can access it using Windows Explorer. However, due to the way the Zune has been designed, there are some limitations to Explorer access that cannot be overcome.....(free).....GO THERE!

Ya got my type pegged greensman! :P
Seriously though as a reloader if I was to go to the store and buy empty 9mm brass it would cost me about $15 per 100 pieces so I just saved over 250 bucks which means more money for me to "donate" to those hardworking single moms at the street corner ;)

Now saving your $$$$ I can relate to, but the street corner donation has to be a personal preference that only a "reloader" can appreciate. Happy hunting my friend. hehehe.
btw supporting the single mom is a good thing but are you sure they have children??? ROFL.....

GOOD NIGHT TO YE ALL,IF YE HAD A BAD DAY AT WORK..THINK ABOUT THIS GUY..
Quote: Bad Day At Work
Next time you have a bad day at work...think of this guy:
Rob is a commercial saturation diver for Global Divers in Louisiana. He performs underwater repairs on offshore drilling rigs. Below is an E-mail he sent to his sister. She then sent it to Laughline, who was sponsoring a "worst job experience" contest. Needless to say, she won.
"Hi Sue,
Just another note from your bottom-dwelling brother. Last week I had bad day at the office. I know you've been feeling down lately at work, so I thought I would share my dilemma with you to make you realize it's not so bad after all.
Before I can tell you what happened to me, I first must bore you with a few technicalities of my job. As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea. I wear a suit to the office. It's a wetsuit. This time of year the water is quite cool. So what we do to keep warm is this: We have a diesel powered industrial water heater. This $20,000 piece of equipment sucks the water out of the sea. It heats it to a delightful temperature. It then pumps it down to the diver through a garden hose, which is taped to the air hose. Now this sounds like a darn good plan, and I've used it several times with no complaints. What I do, when I get to the bottom and start working, is take the hose and stuff it down the back of my wetsuit. This floods my whole suit with warm water. It's like working in a Jacuzzi.
Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my butt started to itch. So, of course, I scratched it. This only made things worse. Within a few seconds my butt started to burn. I pulled the hose out from my back, but the damage was done. In agony I realized what had happened. The hot water machine had sucked up a jellyfish and pumped it into my suit.
Now since I don't have any hair on my back, the jellyfish couldn't stick to it. However, the crack of my butt was not as fortunate. When I scratched what I thought was an itch, I was actually grinding the jellyfish into my butt. I informed the dive supervisor of my dilemma over the communicator. His instructions were unclear due to the fact that he, along with 5 other divers, were all laughing hysterically.
Needless to say I aborted the dive. I was instructed to make 3 agonizing in-water decompression stops totaling 35 minutes before I could reach the surface to begin my chamber dry decompression. When I arrived at the surface, I was wearing nothing but my brass helmet. As I climbed out of the water, the medic, with tears of laughter running down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to rub it on my butt as soon as I got in the chamber. The cream put the fire out, but I couldn't poop for 2 days because my butthole was swollen shut."
So, next time you're having a bad day at work, think about how much worse it would be if you had a jellyfish shoved up your butt.

I know Roxy and Candy do because their kids babysit my dog Harvey while both mommies work on Neph. Stella, Daisy and Heifer (my favorite) don't have any kids they kept (even trick babies fetch a good price on the black market) but they're still technically moms.

I'm leaning towards throwing them all on an island a la Lord of the Flies :D
I know Ireland's got a picture or two of my kids ;)

GOODY MORNING TO YE ALL
Quote: Team owner Jeffery Lurie had put together the perfect team for the
Philadelphia Eagles.
The only thing missing was a good quarterback.
He had scouted all the colleges and even the Canadian and European Leagues,
but he couldn't find a ringer who could ensure a Super Bowl victory.
One night while watching CNN, he saw a war-zone scene in Afghanistan. In
one corner of the background, he spotted a young Afghani soldier with a
truly incredible arm. He threw a hand-grenade straight into a window from 80
yards away. Then he threw another from 50 yards down a chimney, and finally
hit a passing car going 80 miles per hour.
"I've got to get this guy!", Lurie said to himself, "he has the perfect
arm!"
So, he brings the young Afghan to the States and teaches him the great
game of football ...sure enough the Eagles go on to win the Super Bowl.
The young Afghan is hailed as a hero of football, and when the coach
asks him what he wants, all the young man wants to do is call his mother.
"Mom,"he says into the phone, "I just won the Super Bowl.
"I don't want to talk to you," the old Muslim woman says.
"You deserted us.You are not my son."
"Mother, I don't think you understand," pleads the son, "I've just won the
greatest sporting event in the world!"
"No! Let me tell you," his mother retorts, "At this very moment
there are gunshots all around us. The neighborhood is a pile of rubble.
Your two brothers were beaten within an inch of their lives last week, and
I have to keep your sister in the house so she doesn't get raped!" The old
lady pauses then tearfully says, "I will never forgive you for making us
move to Philadelphia!"
