A boy and his father visiting from a third world country were at 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. (i.e. elevator doors)

The boy asked his father, "What is this, Father?". The father 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 elderly old lady shuffled up to the moving walls and pressed a button. The walls opened and the lady stepped 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 voluptuous 24-year old woman stepped out.

The father turned to his son and said, "Son, go get your mother

The owner of a golf course in Georgia was confused about paying an
invoice,
so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help. He
called
her into his office and said, "You graduated from the University of
Georgia
and I need some help. If I were to give you $20,000, minus 14%, how
much
would you take off?"

The secretary thought a moment, and then replied, "Everything but my
earrings."

You gotta love those Georgia women.

Alabama :

A group of Alabama friends went deer hunting and paired off in twos for
the day. That night, one of the hunters returned alone, staggering
under
the weight of an eight-point buck. "Where's Henry?" the others asked..
"
Henry had a stroke of some kind. He's a couple of miles back up the
trail,"
the successful hunter replied.

"You left Henry laying out there and carried the deer back?" they
inquired.

"A tough call," nodded the hunter. "But I figured no one is going to
steal
Henry!"

The man responded, "When you break down they tell you to put flares in
the
front and flares in the back! I never did understand it neither."

Subject: Great Senior Moment!

A very self-important college freshman was attending a recent football game.
He took it upon himself to explain to a senior citizen sitting next to him why it was impossible for the older generation to understand his generation.
"You grew up in a different world, actually an almost primitive one," the student said, loud enough for many of those nearby to hear. "The young people of today grew up with television, jet planes, space travel, man walking on the moon, our spaceships have visited Mars. We have nuclear energy, electric and hydrogen cars, computers with light-speed processing, and...." pausing to take another drink of beer.
The senior took advantage of the break in the student's litany and said,"You're right, son. We didn't have those things when we were young...so we invented them. Now, you arrogant little sh**head, what are you doing for the next generation?"

The applause was deafening.

Don't you just love senior citizens!!!

Can you please tell me what are the latest desktop microprocessors released by (1)Intel, (2)AMD, (3)Motorola? And include prices and specs (or even just the name can work, I'll look for the prices myself). Can you also tell me what those three companies are planning to release next (desktop microprocessors). Thanks so much!

Dogs are a real nuisance if not properly controlled.

They cause havoc in the countryside because the majority of non-farming countryside dwellers leave their dogs loose in the garden to bark all day whilst they go off to work in town.

The dogs get out and kill sheep and wildlife, stampede horses and kill chickens.

If they were licenced, they should carry a metal tag that could be traced to there owners and the appropriate penalties applied. Nowadays, it is left to the local authoraties to oversee dog control, but they are hopeless at it because they only provide a very small number of dog wardens. Our county has only two!

Farmers have a right to shoot any dog that enters his land, but he has no way of getting compensation because there is no way of identifying the owner.

I am giong to spend time with my 12 year old daughter and nephews. I am going to pay some bills( big bills) and maybe go out to dinner with my sister and my younger nephew who is almost 8. My daugher and I love to look in pet shops. I cannot believe for a little puppy they charge about $800 or more for a little pup. But they are cute to look at. So what are your plans for this weekend?

i found it disturbing that my vet IMMEDIETLY advised amputation after literally 10 seconds of inspection. my dog is very furry so that would make it harder. the area did look a little bruised and blood could be seen (NOT pouring out, at the end of the tail) but it had no obvious kinks in it. why didnt my vet even SUGGEST an x-ray. he said only to amputate, he even booked us in after a TOTAL of 3 minutes of inspection (including injecting pain killers, antibiotic and weighing him)
the vet drives a brand new x5 (new model) so maybe hes looking for money?
what else could of happened? bruised muscles, could a splint help in fixing a dislocation, break? or is amputation the ONLY way to go?

th vet also took my dog away from me for the night, is this normal? why couldnt we drop him back the next morning? did he NOT want us to inspect the tail?

i dont intend on fixing this myself, but i dont want my baby to lose his tail if he doesnt have to!!

At first we thought she had been bit by a dog, or another animal, but it looks now as if its a scratch. It's not very red, nor as swollen as it was. But her left leg is bigger/fatter than the other. She had a temperature, but now its gone down, a lot. She doesn't want to put pressure on the leg, such as stand up. She just wants to lay on the bed with a towel covering her. Which we allow her. I keep feeding her, but she doesn't want to eat out of a bowl or cup. She just eats it out of my hand. I dont know what to do, and I know everyone here is going to say take her to the vet, which will happen. But is there anything else? Will it pass? Thanks!!
