An Amish boy and his father were visiting a mall. They were amazed by almost everything they saw, but especially by two shiny, silver walls that could move apart and back together again. The boy asked his father, "What is this, Father?" The father [never having seen an elevator] responded "Son, I have never seen anything like this in my life, I don't know what it is."

While the boy and his father were watching wide-eyed, an old lady in a wheel chair rolled up to the moving walls and pressed a button. The walls opened and the lady rolled between them into a small room. The walls closed and the boy and his father watched small circles of lights with numbers above the walls light up. They continued to watch the circles light up in the reverse direction.

The walls opened up again and a beautiful 24-year-old woman stepped out. The father said to his son, "Go get your mother."

I wanted to get a Panamanian Red Rose Rump tarantula, but I heard that they are not to be handled at all, because if bitten, you would be messed up bad. I have a rose haired but I handle it often, and am not afraid if it bites me. I want a bigger tarantula (like a bird eating T) but I also want to be able to handle it from time to time. Any recommendations?

When I drive my 01 Nissal Altima I am hearing 'Pat Pat Pat....' sound from driver side front tires. I check the pressure regularly but have never found below 31.5. When I check the tires and air the sound is not heard for few minutes (10-15 minutes) and I start to hear the sound again mildy which goes on increase as time goes on, Checked the tire but could not find any defects-like nails...What could be the problem

The majority of this world uses elementary education. Not all schools call themselves secondary schools. Others will call themselves a senior high school. And another will call themselves a high school. Is secondary school like the neutral term for all of the names? Is there a reference for this? Secondary school in my dictionary only means a school coming after elementary school, comprising grades 7,8 or 9 through 12. Senior high schools don't come after an elementary school, so technically it's not a secondary school. But many senior high schools still call themselves a secondary school when technically they aren't one. Primary education is only used in the UK and some other countries so that means that the majority uses elementary education. I think that this category should be renamed to reflect the majority in this world.

I suppose it doesn't really matter..... but how do you go from such a likeable true blue kind of man like Bob Barker? To then consider the likes of Rosie O'Donnell? She is too gruff and unpolished. My whole family has said they will never watch it again and either will I if she is chosen. What do you think?

One day old man Stumpy and his wife Martha went to the Illinois State Fair. There is this man selling plane rides in his single prop show plane for $10 per person. Stumpy looks to Martha and says, "Martha, I think I really should try that." Martha replies, "I know you want to Stumpy, but we have a lot of bills, and you know the money is tight, and $10 is $10." So Stumpy goes without. Over the next few years they return every year, and the same thing, Stumpy wants to ride, but Martha says no money.

Finally, when Stumpy and Martha are both about 70 years old, Stumpy looks to Martha, and says, "Martha, I'm 70 now, and I don't know if I'll ever get the chance again, so I just have to have a ride in that there airplane." Martha replies in the same old fashion, and Stumpy kind of slumps down. The pilot is standing near by and overhears the conversation...

The pilot pipes up, "Excuse me folks, I couldn't help but hear your situation, and I have a deal for you. I'll take both of you up together, and if you can both make the entire trip without saying a word, or even making the slightest sound, I'll give the ride for free. But if either of you make a sound, its $10 each." Well, Martha and Stumpy look at each other, and agree to take the ride.

The pilot takes them up, and starts to do loop de loops, twists, dives, climbs and spins. No sound. The pilot lands the plane, looks back at Stumpy and says, "Sir, I have to hand it to ya, you didn't make even the slightest sound and that was my best stuff." Stumpy looks back at the pilot and says, "Well, I was gonna say something when Martha fell out, but $10 is $10!"

I went to the race in 1988, and personally, I think the coverage on TV is nearly as good.

It takes serious huevos(spelled right?) to do 200MPH in the rain on a road course, and as usual, it looks much easier from the armchair than behind the wheel.

I'm still trying to find the website that shows the webcams that monitor the actions of the police, considering they are our employees, our tax dollars at work -

Can anyone direct me to the webpage that displays the cameras that monitor the actions of the police including any cameras used during covert surveillance operations?

And I'm not talking about the cameras that are directed onto the street, from police cruisers - I mean the ones that directly monitor each officer's actions inside their vehicle.

Considering the precedent Bush set in revealing the name of covert CIA operatives, such cameras are easily justified.

Thanks!~

At my wedding yesterday the cheif bridesmaids husband and his two mates, turned up in jeans and trainers at the reception. None of them like me, have never spoken for four years and accuse me of sponging off my wife. I had them thrown out but it didnt result in a fight, just a lot of hot air and threats. Would you have done it differently.

Ok, round 2. My computer, gateway with windows xp home pentium 4 processor 1.5oghz 512mb ram, randomly freezes up whenever the heck it feels like it. When it does freeze up, there is nothing I can do except hold the power button in until it resets. there are no windows error messages, no blue screen of death, no start up in safe mode. Sometimes it freezes while booting, other times it freezes after being idle for some time. After I reset it and reboot, I can resume work normally. I have run spybot, avast!, ccleaner, and superantispyware. Yesterday, I took the leap and reinstalled windows, took the memory out and reinstalled in opposite slots, reinstalled all ms windows updates along with windows live one care, sp2, IE7 and a few misc other downloads. It was working great last night but then after is sat idle for a few hours it froze again. The 20 gb hdd is less than half full, and the memory appears like it is not being overloaded. Any ideas?
