Nobody can tell you to quit posting anything. There area few things that do get annoying but this is a almost free website. Unless Rugger pulls your plug, then don't worry about what other people think. And if Rugger is pulling your plug then enjoy it. I heard that he does like reach arounds. That may get you posting again. The story about the donkey and the husband computer shit was great. Good thinking. You must be bored as hell on vacation. Find some rich widow and have fun, instead of spending your time with us. Damn enjoy life a little bit. I have a beautiful intelligent woman and two wonderful children. So I do not need a rich widow. I'm already rich. I now have much time because it rains a lot Awards

Our language, Cymraeg, has the occasional hat on top of a letter, for example my sister is called Siân. Now English is one of the few European languages without graves or accents; so it is likely that England is where the urban myth that Alt Gr means Alternative Grave originated. As Celts, we Welsh are aware that our continental cousins use these extra letters, for example á or é or ó. My point is that if you need an accented vowel, then either, you need to add letters from the Symbols font - cumbersome, or alternatively, remember that alt 144 means É. Note this time I mean the left, plain, Alt key and not the right Alt Gr (Confusing isn't it!) From my cousins across the pond in America, I hear that Spanish is big in some neighbourhoods so presumably Spanish Americans occasionally employ accented letters. So in a nutshell, the Alternative Grave myth is wrong. To prove it, go to the keyboard, hold down the right hand Alt Gr and type a vowel. Result á é í ó ú. These characters are actually the acute form of the letter. The grave has the accent sloping the other way à è ì. Conclusion Alt is indeed an abbreviation of Alternative, however 'Gr' may well stand for Graphics in the sense of special characters such as á é. Grant has convinced me that Gr has nothing to do with grave as that accent slopes the other way. Funnily enough, Alt Gr only appears on English, English keyboards, and seems absent on American English keyboards. Further Research If you are interested in Diacritics, as these strange symbols are called, navigate this path: Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools has a Character map. Well worth a visit should you wish to check the precise alt + number value of any symbol, not just the graves. For example â is alt + 0226 (Num Lock On, and press the numeric keyboard value). Awards

When you are computing, if someone is watching, whatever happens, behave as though you meant it to happen. When the going gets tough, upgrade your computer. The first place to look for information is in the section of the manual where you'd least expect to find it. For every action, there is an equal and opposite malfunction. To err is human ... to blame your computer for your mistakes is even more human, its downright natural. He who laughs last, probably has a back-up. The number one cause of computer problems is computer solutions. A complex system that doesn't work is invariably found to have evolved from a simpler system that worked just fine. A computer program will always do what you tell it to do, but rarely what you want it to do. Awards

You wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning to go to the bathroom and stop at the computer to check your email on the way back to bed. You turn off your computer and get an awful empty feeling, as if you just pulled the plug on a loved one. You decide to stay in college for an additional year or two, just for the free internet access. You start using smileys :-) in your snail mail. When you hand-write a note and think... SPELL CHECKER'! You can't correspond with your mother because she doesn't have a computer. When your computer's email box shows 'no new messages' and you feel really depressed. You don't know the gender of your three closest friends because they have non-descript screen name and you never bothered to ask. Your family always knows where you are. In real life conversations, you don't laugh, you just say 'LOL, LOL' If your computer's internet connection goes down, you cannot settle to any other tasks.

This true, short and funny story is about an English woman who was planning a trip of a lifetime to India. She had booked in to stay in a small guest house owned by the local schoolmaster. She was concerned as to whether the guest house contained a WC. In Britain, a bathroom is occasionally called a WC which stands for "Water Closet". This, rather genteel lady wrote to the schoolmaster inquiring about the WC. The school master who was not very fluent in English, asked the local priest if he knew the meaning of WC. Together they pondered possible meanings of the letters and concluded that the lady wanted to know if there was a "Wayside Chapel" near the house . . . a bathroom never entered their minds. Awards

There are nine of us living in one room. What can I do?' The rabbi answers, 'Take your goat into the room with you.' Solly is incredulous, 'What?' but the rabbi insists, 'Do as I say and come back in a week.' A week later Solly comes back looking even more distraught than before, 'We cannot stand it,' Solly explains to the rabbi, 'the goat is filthy.' The rabbi then tells Solly, 'Go home and let the goat out. Come back in a week.' Solly, now radiant, returns to the rabbi a week later, exclaiming, 'Life is beautiful. We enjoy every minute of it now that there's no goat; only the nine of us.' Awards

Dieter Braun, 43, from Recklinghausen said the stress release technique had worked perfectly until he was arrested. He told police that venting his anger on the trees had stopped him shouting at his wife. 'If I didn't go to the woods and scream at the trees then my marriage would probably be over, 'he said. He added taking his clothes off at the same time made him feel more relaxed. 'For me it's a type of relaxation therapy. Feeling the breeze on my naked skin really calms me down.' But local police said other visitors to the forest did not find his behaviour relaxing and have now charged him with causing a public nuisance. Awards

If they did, Tim got it printed on a special 'allergy band' which was then placed on the patient's wrist as a reference for all other hospital employees. On one particular occasion Tim asked an elderly woman if she had any allergies. The old dear responded by saying that she was unable to eat bananas. Tim received a considerable surprise later in the day when a very irate son came out of the ward demanding, 'Who's responsible for labelling my mother 'bananas'?' Awards
