You might try the Koss Sparkplug for something inexpensive. I have the older model and love them. They cut out most of the outside noise and deliver great sound for less than $20. :)

Of course there are many more and expensive too if you want to go that route. ;)

i just had to look that up for ye that do not know the meaning..


Quote:
A knacker is a person in the trade of rendering animals that are unfit for human consumption, such as work horses that have died in harness or are too tired to work any more.[1] This leads to the slang expression "knackered" meaning very tired, or ready for the knacker?s yard, where old horses would be slaughtered and made into dog food and glue. The word is derived from the old Irish word for a horse (an each) pronounced a nack. From this is derived the word for a horse dealer (an eachoir) , pronounced a nack-ower anglicised to a knacker.

Original use of the term is very common throughout the British Isles and gained some notoriety during the outbreak of mad cow disease.

@billyboy... if you want stupid poems, look up a guy named Ogden Nash; he wrote the funniest and stupidest ones you can imagine:

The Ostrich

The Ostrish roams the great sahara
It's legs are long; its neck is narrah.
And with those tall and spindly legs,
I hope it sits when it lays eggs.

:)

Unless there are two, Salome is a play by Oscar Wilde. The Importance of being Ernest is one of my favorites:

Lady Barchnell: "Mr. Worthing, do you smoke?"
Mr. Worthing: "Yes, Lady Barchnell, I must confess that I do."
Lady Brachnell: "I am pleased to hear it; a man must have an occupation of some sort."
********************

Lady Barchnell: "Mr. Worthing, tell me about your parents."
Mr. Worthing: "Lady Brachnell, I'm afraid I have lost both my parents"
Lady Brachnell: "Mr. Worthing, to lose one parent is a tragedy but to lose both parents, well, sounds like carelessness to me!"

50/50



A young man saw an elderly couple sitting down to lunch at McDonald's. He noticed that they had ordered one meal, and an extra drink cup. As he watched, the gentleman carefully divided the hamburger in half, then counted out the fries, one for him, one for her, until each had half of them. Then he poured half of the soft drink into the extra cup and set that in front of his wife. The old man then began to eat, and his wife sat watching, with her hands folded in her lap.

The young man decided to ask if they would allow him to purchase another meal for them so that they didn't have to split theirs.

The old gentleman said, "Oh no. We've been married 50 years, and everything has always been and will always be shared, 50/50."

The young man then asked the wife if she was going to eat, and she replied, "It's his turn with the teeth."

A little girl was sitting on gerry1 lap as he read her a bedtime story. From time to time, she would take her eyes off the book and reach up to touch his wrinkled cheek. She was alternately stroking her own cheek, then his again. Finally she spoke up, gerry1, did God make you?"

"Yes, sweetheart," he answered, "God made me a long time ago."

"Oh," she paused, "gerry1, did God make me too?"

"Yes, indeed, honey," he said, "God made you just a little while ago."

Feeling their respective faces again, she observed, "God's getting better at it, isn't he?"

A MESSAGE FROM GOD



A man is driving along the interstate out of Maine. He's got two hours to get to an important business conference in New Hampshire. All of a sudden, he's really hungry. He pulls over to the nearest fast food joint he sees. He orders a huge meal from the drive-through, and continues on his way.

After a little while, nature calls. The man, not wanting to "go" in the forest, looks around desperately for a building with a bathroom. He's really got to take a crap. Suddenly, he sees this small, run-down old church. He thinks, "Great, they'll have a bathroom."

He pulls over, and runs into the lobby. It's deserted, and he can't see a bathroom anywhere. He runs into the sanctuary. He sees a praying woman.

"Where's the bathroom?" he asks.

"Shh! Down the hall, third right." So the man runs down the hall. In his pain, however, he takes the third left, instead. He rips the door open. It's a hole in the wall! He thinks, "Oh well, it's better than nothing."

In the basement below, a preacher is praying at his private alter, "What will god give us today?" The preacher holds up his hand, reaching up to heaven through his heaven-hole in the wall.

PLOP!!

"Oh. Well, if that's how he's feeling today, well, so be it. What will god say to us today?" He stretches his ear up to heaven.

"Dammit, where's the toilet paper?"

DONATIONS, PLEASE



Bob found himself amid a crush of excited people in the lobby of his office building. He started to fight his way to the front of the crowd when he ran into a co-worker.

"What's going on?" Bob asked.

"Some religious nut's in the elevator," said his colleague. "The fanatic's soaked himself in gasoline, and he's threatening to set himself on fire. I'm taking up a collection for him. Want to donate?"

"Sure," said Bob. "How much have you collected so far?"

His friend replied, "Eight books of matches and six lighters."
