    Resolved [RESOLVED] Silly people

    Had a person call up and say there must be something wrong with their windows because a friend had told him that if he moved the folders closer together during copy, that it would copy faster! He said he couldn't get the folder to move closer.

    Oh I love when people believe their "friends" over someone that actually knows what they are talking about. My mom is always telling me how the lady she works with believes her 13 year old son because he is sooo smart but she will call or email me to find out the truth. I wish I had some examples to give ya, it always brought a chuckle to me.

    Old jokes are easy to come across at my age as long as I don't dye my hair.


    An old farmer decided it was time to get a new rooster for his hens. The current rooster was still doing an okay job, but he was getting on in years. And the farmer figured getting a new rooster couldn't hurt anything. So he buys a young cock from the local rooster emporium, and turns him loose in the barn yard. Well, the old rooster sees the young one strutting around and he gets a little worried. So, they're trying to replace me, thinks the old rooster.I've got to do something about this. He walks up to the new bird and says, "So you're the new stud in town? I bet you really think you're hot stuff, don't you? Well I'm not ready for the chopping block yet. I'll bet I'm still the better bird. And to prove it, I challenge you to a race around that hen house over there. We'll run around it ten times and whoever finish's first gets to have all the hens for himself."
    Well, the young rooster was a proud sort, and he definitely thought he was more than a match for the old guy. "You're on," said the young rooster. "And since I know I'm so great, I'll even give you a head start of half a lap. I'll still win easy," said the young rooster. So the two roosters go over to the hen house to start the race with all the hens gathering around to watch. The race begins and all the hens start cheering the roosters on. After the first lap, the old rooster is still maintaining his lead. After the second lap, the old guy's lead has slipped a little but he's still hanging in there. Unfortunately the old rooster's lead continues to slip each time around, and by the fifth lap he's just barely in front of the young rooster.

    By now the farmer has heard all the commotion. He runs into the house, gets his shotgun, and runs out to the barn yard figuring a fox or something is after his chickens. When he gets there, he sees the two roosters running around the hen house, with the old rooster still slightly in the lead. He immediately takes his shotgun, aims, fires, and blows the young rooster away. As he walks away slowly, he says to himself ....... "Damn, that's the third gay rooster I've bought this month."

    Please explain how and why you found a 7 year old post with no replies? Bored?
    There's no panic like the panic you momentarily feel when you've got
    your hand or head stuck in something

    Q: What is the difference between ignorance and apathy?

    A: I don't know, and I don't care.

    1/ A guy phones a law office and says: "I want to speak to my lawyer."
    The receptionist replies "I'm sorry but he died last week."
    The next day he phones again and asks the same question.
    The receptionist replies "I told you yesterday, he died last week."
    The next day the guy calls again and asks to speak to his lawyer. By this time the receptionist is getting a little annoyed and says, "I keep telling you that your lawyer died last week. Why do you keep calling?"

    The guy says, "Because I just love hearing it."

    2/Q. What's the difference between roast beef and pea soup?
