Things that should work, did work, and always have worked have stopped working. Nobody has any idea why....
Amazon sold out of Kindle today. I am confused. This isn't the best unit or the cheapest. You can only buy from Amazon and you cannot gift someone else's Kindle. The iPad is better, albeit more money, but better readers and more flexible ones are on the way. Why is anybody buying these now?? (Did I miss something ?)
A Committee composed of Senators Daschle, Clinton, and Feinstein
have announced that the rescue of the Pennsylvania coal miners
has been repealed, and the miners will, by recommendation of the
Committee, be placed back in the mine. The Senators noted the
following violations in the rescue process:
10. Heavy diesel equipment was moved to the rescue site without
concern for possible air pollution.
9. Water was pumped out of the mine without first determining if
it was polluted, or providing an environmentally safe catchment
area for the water.
8. Numerous holes were drilled in the ground during the rescue,
without first performing an Environmental Impact study.
7. No effort was made to ensure racial, ethnic, and sexual
diversity of the rescue workers.
6. The Governor of Pennsylvania was heard to "Thank God" during a
live television broadcast of the rescue, violating the separation
of church and state.
5. Several people at this public, government supported, rescue
mentioned praying.
4. The trapped miners did not represent a diversified cross
section of American society.
3. Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Hillary Clinton were not given
sufficient time to make speeches at the site.
2. The Senate was not given sufficient time to determine whether
or not any Republican office holder owned stock in the coal
company, thus being responsible for the conspiracy that caused
the mine to flood.
And Number 1: No one mentioned that Al Gore invented mine
rescues.
"Once a diversified group of miners has been chosen and placed
back into the mine shaft, the holes will be sealed, the water
will be returned to the mine, and the rescue will then be
undertaken again, in an environmentally and politically correct
manner", the Committee noted.
She's So Vane
The girl knelt in the confessional and said, "Bless me, Father, for I have sinned." "What is it, child?"
"Father, I have committed the sin of vanity. Twice a day I gaze at myself in the mirror and tell myself how beautiful I am."
The priest turned, took a good look at the girl, and said, "My dear, I have good news. That isn't a sin - it's only a mistake."
Tarzan had been living alone in his jungle kingdom for 25 years with only suitably shaped holes in trees for sex.
Jane, a reporter, came to Africa in search of this legendary figure.
One day, deep in the wilds, she came to a clearing and discovered Tarzan vigorously thrusting himself into a jungle oak. She watched in awe for awhile.
Finally, overcome by this display of animal passion, Jane came out in to the open and offered herself to him.
As she reclined on the wild grass, Tarzan became aroused. He quickly ran over and kicked her in the crotch really hard.
In pain, she screamed, "What the hell did you do that for?".
Tarzan replied, "Tarzan always check for squirrels first.
