    Good one.

    An elephant was drinking out of a river one day, when he spotted a turtle asleep on a log. So, he ambled on over and kicked it clear across the river. "What did you do that for?" Asked a passing giraffe. "Because I recognized it as the same turtle that took a nip out of my trunk 53 years ago." "Wow, what a memory" commented the giraffe. "Yes," said the elephant, "turtle recall". This one is great also. An Indian chief had three wives, each of whom was pregnant. The first gave birth to a boy. The chief was so elated he built her a teepee made of deer hide. A few days later, the second gave birth, also to a boy. The chief was very happy. He built her a teepee made of antelope hide. The third wife gave birth a few days later, but the chief kept the details a secret. He built this one a two story teepee, made out of a hippopotamus hide. The chief then challenged the tribe to guess what had occurred. Many tried, unsuccessfully. Finally, one young brave declared that the third wife had given birth to twin boys. "Correct," said the chief. "How did you figure it out?" The warrior answered, "It's elementary. The value of the squaw of the hippopotamus is equal to the sons of the squaws of the other two hides."

    OOps.

    A man boarded a plane with 6 kids. After they got settled in their seats a woman sitting across the aisle from him leaned over to him and asked, 'Are all of those kids yours?' He replied, 'No. I work for a condom company. These are customer complaints.'
  5. Here is a good game for SJ! He might be able to defeat the evil windows. GLHF http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/448565
  6. Doing my rounds and noticed this contraption I like the color!
  7. Welcome!, 2 dudes on a bike would look odd.
  8. Yes, I ignore this thread until I am at work and have time to read it. Asus looks like a decent machine, I am still lost in the 8900gt/gs 7200rpm mumbo jumbo. Since when has India become so advanced in the digital age, I even saw a show how when you drive through McDonalds someone in India takes your order. Well thank you for all the info Just going to have to find something that fits my budget, Most likely will be dell though. Seems like the one I want will be enough for what it will be used for. If I had more knowlegde about comps I would build my own like you said, unitl then sticking to the bundled pack.
  9. Wow, I purchased a Dell desktop and seems more than what I needed at the time. I have been told by people only buy dell,HP, or mac if they are apple guys, I have never used one. So I wish I never asked, you guys saying it is a waste of money. I guess I will shop around. Funny thing you said about alienware, I thought they were cool. Maybe Im just the perfect canidate for marketing schemes. On the website it is so smooth and flashy and is just the powerhouse for gaming. Let me go back through cujo's post and see what differs. Asus, never heard of them.
  10. I would like some opinions on what would be an all around good system. It will primarily be for school/work and would like to still pop on CSS every so often. I am looking at the 999 standard, not the red edition. Also anyone have any experience with the dell warehouse, certified refurbished, should I stay away from these. Any opions on what I need and do not would be helpful. Thanks in advance. http://www.dell.com/content/products/produ...;l=en&s=dhs edit:forgot link.

    Phone repair.

    A Kansas farm wife called the local phone company to report her telephone failed to ring when her friends called - and that on the few occasions, when it did ring, her dog always moaned right before the phone rang. The telephone repairman proceeded to the scene, curious to see this psychic dog or senile lady. He climbed a telephone pole, hooked in his test set, and dialed the subscriber's house. The phone didn't ring right away, but then the dog moaned and the telephone began to ring. Climbing down from the pole, the telephone repairman found: 1. The dog was tied to the telephone system's ground wire with a steel chain and collar. 2. The wire connection to the ground rod was loose. 3. The dog was receiving 90 volts of signaling current when the number was called. 4. After a couple of jolts, the dog would start moaning and then urinate. 5. The wet ground would complete the circuit , thus causing the phone to ring. Which demonstrates that some problems CAN be fixed by tinkleing and moaning. Thought you'd like to know.
  13. IS the cedar point and lan party a family event? Can the kids come?
  14. A Houston construction boss was interviewing men for a job, when along came a Louisiana Cajun. "You gotta pass my test first", he told the applicant. "Here's your first question." "Without using numbers represent the number 9." "Without numbers?" the Cajun says. "Dat's easy," and proceeds to draw 3 trees. "What's this?" the foreman asks. "Well, tree and tree and tree make nine," says the Cajun. "Fair enough," replies the foreman. "Here is your second question. Use the same rules, but this time the number is 99." The Cajun stares into space for a while, then picks up the picture of the three trees and makes a smudge on each tree. "Ere you go." The boss scratches his head and says, "How on earth do you get that to represent 99?" ! ; "Each of da trees is dirty now! So dirty tree and dirty tree and dirty tree. Dat is 99!" "All right. Last question. Same rules again, but represent the number 100." The Cajun stares into space again, then picks up the picture again and makes a little mark at the base of each tree, and says, "Ere you go. One hundred!" The foreman looks at the attempt. "How in the world does this represent a hundred?" The Cajun leans forward and points to the marks at the tree bases, and says, "A little dog come along and crap by each tree, so now you've got dirty tree and a turd and dirty tree and a turd and dirty tree and turd, and dat make one 'undred. So when do I start work?"
  15. FK still a fair amount of change. Shaft you hack it real life to.
  16. OH i want this membership. good luck FK!
  17. So I moved to Vegas out of HS and got married had 2 kids. Money was great in Vegas but life was to fast paced and everyone my age just wanted to party. My wifes fam is in MI. We talked about moving out there when the kids are a little older and bills are paid off. Well I broke my leg in a motorcycle accident. My wife found a place with 20 acres. I signed the papers on morphine in the hospital. We packed up and drove here with crutches on the dash. Things were really ruff. As most know jobs are scarce here. I finally found one got in and put some hard work in and now moved up. Money is decent kids are well and there is a nice school they can attend. I will be starting school in the fall for an electrical engineering degree. Company is paying for, B- or better. Things are going to be testign at times but my wife and I agree it will be better in the long run to complete school now. If I keep excelling at this pace I might just be somebody. I was really worried and regretted moving when we first got here. Anyway just felt like letting some of the GC's know who I am.

    (((STATS)))

    Did the stats reset? It seemed inactive for awhile and then I found the gametracker stats. What are we using? Does it reset every month? I enjoy stats.
