~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A woman called the Canon help desk, about a problem she was having with her printer. The tech asked her if she was "running it under Windows." The woman responded, "No, my desk is next to the door. But that's a good point.
The man sitting in the cubicle next to me is under a window, and his is working just fine".

1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.
2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.
3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.
4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.
5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?
6. Was learning cursive really necessary?
7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on # 5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.
8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.
9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.
10. Bad decisions make good stories.
11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.
12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection...again.
13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page technical report that I swear I did not make any changes to.
14. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.
15. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.
16. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I wouldbet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.
17. I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.
18. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.
19. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said?
20. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!
21. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.
22. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.
23. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time.
24. The first testicular guard, the "Cup," was used in Hockey in 1874 and the first helmet was used in 1974. That means it only took 100 years for men to realize that their brain is also important.

Moishe (the father) says to his son: "I want you to marry a girl of my choice."
The son says: "I will choose my own bride."
Moishe says: "But the girl is Bill Gates' daughter."
The son answers: "Well, in that case, yes, OK."
Moishe then approaches Bill Gates and says: "I have a husband for your daughter."
Bill Gates answers: "But my daughter is too young to get married!"
Moishe says: "But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank."
Bill Gates answers: "Ah, in that case, yes, OK."
Finally, Moishe goes to see the president of the World Bank. Moishe says: "I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president."
The president answers: "But I already have more vice-presidents than I need."
Moishe says: "But this young man is Bill Gates' son-in-law."
The President answers: "Ah, in that case, yes, OK."
And that is how successful people do business.....

Wedding Fairy
A married couple in their early 60 ' s were celebrating their
40th Wedding Anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant....
Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table.
She said, "For being such an exemplary married couple and for being
loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a
wish."
The wife answered, "Oh, I want to travel around the world
with my darling husband." The fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! -
two tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands.
The husband thought for a moment: "Well, this is all very
romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry
my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than I."
The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is
a wish.
So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!....the husband
became 93 years old. The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful
bastards should remember fairies are female .....
