2. What if Dr. Seuss Wrote Computer Manuals?

If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, And the bus is interrupted as a very last resort, And the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort, Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report!

If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash, And the double-clicking icons put your window in the trash, And your data is corrupted ‘cause the index doesn’t hash, Then your situation’s hopeless, and your system’s gonna crash!

If the label on your cable on the gable at your house, Says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, But your packets want to tunnel to another protocol, That’s repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall.

And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, So your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse, Then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang, ‘Cause as sure as I’m a poet, the sucker’s gonna hang!

When the copy of your floppy’s getting sloppy on the disk, And the microcode instructions cause unnecessary RISC, Then you have to flash your memory and you’ll want to RAM your ROM, Quickly turn off your computer and be sure to tell your mom!

I'm looking at the Twists Ray has on sale and have a couple of questions. The black one looks like it has a rubbery coating like my Joye, is that correct? #2: The red ones look shiny, has anyone had a problem with them scratching? I'm a little rough, throwing them in my purse, etc.

Chit - hi ocelot! I have a set of twists from Ray, the black ones. I can attest to them having the rubbery finish. And no, they wear pretty well. I do believe the others are painted and do get scratched a bit... but I'll defer to Ray or others there, as I don't own an enameled one.

Once there was a magical mirror.
When you told the thruth it gave you things, but if you lie to it, it makes you vanish forever.

One day three college girls went to the mirror.

The red head said "I think I'm the smartest one."
Then she got a diploma, scholarship, and got accepted into all the colleges in the world.

The brunette then said "I think I'm the prettiest one."
Then she got a Corvette, mansion, a good looking boyfriend , and a lot of money.

Then the blonde said " I think...*poof*"
Then she suddenly disappeared forever

Ocelot, I bought the black one from RayN. It is a matt black but I haven't had any problem with scuffing. Of course, I can't throw it into a purse, but it does fine in a pocket full of keys and change

It's not a rubberized grip, but afaik neither are the Joye Tech brand. It has a very silky feel to it.
The other colors have the same finish, my wife only has the black ones so I can't really attest to scratch resistance on them.

McDonald's Job Application...

4. EDUCATION: Yes.

5. LAST POSITION HELD: Target for middle management hostility.

6. SALARY: Less than I'm worth.

7. MOST NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENT: My incredible collection of stolen pens and post-it notes.

9. HOURS AVAILABLE TO WORK: Any.

10. PREFERRED HOURS: 1:30-3:30 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday.

11. DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL SKILLS?: Yes, but they're better suited to a more intimate environment.

12. MAY WE CONTACT YOUR CURRENT EMPLOYER?: If I had one, would I be here?

13. DO YOU HAVE ANY PHYSICAL CONDITIONS THAT WOULD PROHIBIT YOU FROM LIFTING (UP TO 50 LBS)?: Of what?

14. DO YOU HAVE A CAR?: I think the more appropriate question here would be "Do you have a car that runs?"

16. DO YOU SMOKE?: Only when set on fire.

17. WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE DOING IN FIVE YEARS?: Living in the Bahamas with a fabulously wealthy super model who thinks I'm the greatest thing since sliced bread. Actually, I'd like to be doing that now.

19. SIGN HERE: Scorpio with Libra rising.

A string walks into a bar. Says, "gimme a beer". Bartender snarls and say "we don't serve strings here".

String leaves. String goes into a fit. Ties himself up, slams himself againts a brick wall...really gets messed up.

Same string walks into the bar. Says, "gimme a beer". Bartender snarls and say "we don't serve strings here". String says "I'm not a string". Bartender glares, say "no?". String says no...I'm a frayed knot".
