Congratulations to kids born in the
1940’s, 50’s, 60’s and 70’s
For surviving:
… being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while pregnant.
… baby cots that were covered with lead-based paints.
… medicine bottles, doors or cabinets with no child-proof lids or locks.
… riding bikes with no helmets.
… Riding in cars with no seat belts or air bags.
… Drinking water from the garden hosepipe not from a bottle.
… Sharing a soft drink with friends from one bottle and no one actually dieing.
… Drinking pop with real sugar in it, but not being overweight because playing outside was healthy.
… Without Playstations, Nintendo’s, X-boxes, video games. No 110 channels on cable, no video tape movies, no surround sound, no cell phones, no text messaging, no personal computers, no Internet. Just having friends was ok.
… Climbing trees and falling out of them without strarting a lawasuit against someone.
Remember Life in 2007 when…
-
1. You accidentally enter your pin number on the microwave.
-
2. You hadn’t played solitaire with real cards in years.
-
3. You had a list of 10 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.
-
4. You e-mailed the person who works at the desk next to you.
-
5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don’t have e-mail addresses.
-
6. You pull up in your own drive and use your mobile phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.
-
7. Every commercial on television had a web site at the bottom of the screen.
-
8. Leaving the house without your mobile phone, which you didn’t have the first 20 years of your life, became a cause for panic.
-
9. You got up in the morning and went online before going to work.
-
10. You asked the bank for a £500 loan and they informed that you were eligible for a £7,500 loan if you wanted it.
New laws for hands free mobiles
According to a proposed new law soon to come into effect, you will no longer be able to use a cell phone while driving unless it has a ‘hands free’ adapter and is attached to you.
Maplins wanted £50 for a headset so having a friend in the cell phone business, I talked with him and he was able to come up with a cheaper alternative.
These kits are compatible with any mobile phone and one size fits all. Tested with Motorola, Ericson, and Nokia units and they worked perfectly.
Take a look at the photo below and let me know if you want one. They cost £4 or $4 each (inc p&p) and your order can be placed here.

Alternatively, perhaps the new hands-free premium edition may interest you at just £50 each (phone not included).
Actual Comments made by 14 police officers taken from police car videos
- 14. “Relax, the handcuffs are tight because they’re new. They’ll stretch after you wear them a while.”
- 13. “If you take your hands off the car, I’ll make your birth certificate a worthless document.”
- 12. “If you run, you’ll only go to jail tired.”
- 11. “Can you run faster than 1200 feet per second? Because that’s the speed of the bullet that’ll be chasing you.”
- 10. “You don’t know how fast you were going? I guess that means I can write anything I want to on the ticket, huh?”
- 9. “Yes, sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but I don’t think it will help. Oh, did I mention that I’m the shift supervisor?”
- 8. “Warning! You want a warning? O.K, I’m warning you not to do that again or I’ll give you another ticket.”
- 7. “The answer to this last question will determine whether you are drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?”
- 6. “Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go to ride on rides, eat cotton candy and corn dogs and step in monkey poop”
- 5. “Yeah, we have a quota. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toaster oven.”
- 4. “How big were those ‘two beers’ you say you had?’
- 3. “No sir, we don’t have quotas anymore. We used to, but now we’re allowed to write as many tickets as we can.”
- 2. “I’m glad to hear that the Chief (of Police) is a personal friend of yours. So you know someone who can post your bail.”
- AND THE WINNER IS….
1. “You didn’t think we give pretty women tickets? You’re right, we don’t, Sign here.”
The person that wrote the description above for countdown clearly has never seen the programme. It is not a computer that picks anything but the contestants themselves who ask for either a vowel or a consenant to be displayed by the lady in this case Carol Vordermann.

Have you read an Asian user manual for electronic equipment and chuckled at the use of English. It never ceases to amaze me why a company like Sony cannot employ someone who can speak English to proofread their manuals before printing.
In other areas such as forum boards on the internet it is of course more forgiveable, but equally amusing.
There is nothing like discovering a gem and wanting to splash relish all over it, and this is the place to record the moment for posterity.

TIMBUKTU
The Australian Poetry Competition had come down to two finalists, a university graduate and an old aborigine.
They were given a word, then allowed two minutes to study the word and come up with a poem that contained the word. That word was: TIMBUKTU.
First went the university graduate. He stepped up to the microphone and began.
Slowly across the desert sand
Trekked a lonely caravan
Men on camels two by two
Destination – Timbuktu
The audience were impressed, surely the old aborigine could not top that.
The old aborigine calmly made his way to the microphone and began.
Me and Tim a huntin’ went
Met three whores in a pop up tent
They were three, and we was two
So I buck one, and Timbuktu
Impossible to say when intoxicated
- Sorry, but you’re not my type, I’m married.
- No more drink for me thank you.
- Dance? No way, I have no coordination and would hate to make a fool of myself.
- I must go home now as I have work in the morning.
Quote
I had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalogue: – ‘No good in a bed, but fine against a wall.’
– Eleanor Roosevelt

Response quotes from a Thomas Cook and survey
I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts.
It’s lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy things during the siesta. This should be banned.
On my holiday to Goa in India I was disgusted to find almost every restaurant served curry. I don’t like spicy food at all.
We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had to bring our swimming costumes and towels.
The beach was too sandy. We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure.
Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday was ruined as my husband spent all day distracted by them.
We bought Ray-Ban sunglasses for five Euros (£3.50) from a street trader, only to find out they were fake.
No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were startled.
I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends’ three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller.
There were too many Spanish people. The receptionist speaks Spanish. The food is Spanish. Too many foreigners.
We had to queue outside with no air conditioning.

… medicine bottles, doors or cabinets with no child-proof lids or locks.
… riding bikes with no helmets.
… Riding in cars with no seat belts or air bags.
… Drinking water from the garden hosepipe not from a bottle.
… Sharing a soft drink with friends from one bottle and no one actually dieing.
… Drinking pop with real sugar in it, but not being overweight because playing outside was healthy.
… Without Playstations, Nintendo’s, X-boxes, video games. No 110 channels on cable, no video tape movies, no surround sound, no cell phones, no text messaging, no personal computers, no Internet. Just having friends was ok.
… Climbing trees and falling out of them without strarting a lawasuit against someone.
New laws for hands free mobiles
According to a proposed new law that would go into effect Jan 1, 2008 you will no longer be able to use a cell phone while driving unless you have a ‘hands free’ adapter.
I went to Circuit City and they wanted $50 for a headset with a microphone for my cell phone. Having a friend in the cell phone business, I talked with him and was able to come up with an alternative, working through Office Depot.
These kits are compatible with any mobile phone and one size fits all. I paid him $0.08 each because he bought in quantity. Then we tried it with Motorola, Ericson, and Nokia units and they worked perfectly.
Take a look at the photo below and let me know if you want one.
