Rambler 57

Because of the economic downturn, quarry owners are being asked to think outside the rocks.

I have had chicken fried steak in the past. On Christmas I experienced computer fried rambler. My 5-6 year old computer byted the dust. The steak version is recommended over the rambler. It will take me a couple of weeks to get back into rhythm. (I must be thinking of mirth control.)

The experience gave me a nasty "Outlook." All the files that I thought were in Outlook were lost-including 2 draft ramblers. A word to the wise, save your outlook addresses and messages in another format in a "my documents" folder to allow recovery.

Based on certain file segregation by Norton during the recovery of some files from old drives, there may have been a virus received at some point, so going forward any inbound email that contains powerpoint or requires the approval of some software to open will be immediately expunged before opening and a 1,000KW surge will be sent back to the sender to prevent future occurrences.

Explunge-to quickly leave the pool because the water is too cold.

Do you buy Chinese goods at Red Book prices?

After their breaks, Senators return to their play stations to make us pay so why are they picking on the Governor of Illinois about pay for play?

We used to take our clothes to a dry cleaner. Now we take our dead computers to a drive gleaner.

The book industry has guaranteed sales. This means books not sold by the retailers get returned to the publishers for credit, after which they are shipped back to stores for the low priced tables. All this adds to the costs of books which is all the more reason for the Kindle and similar devices where books can be downloaded at lower costs and greater efficiencies.

Cashew packaging is definitely a case of the halves and halves not.

I use nightcrawler harnesses while fishing for walleyes, but it sure is hard to steer them to the fish.

A number of people in London have fallen over monofilament line positioned at ankle level. Police believe these are acts of Jack The Tripper.

  1. Good blog. I enjoyed the quick witted humor. I decided to leave a comment because I blog and I know how frustrating it is to put something on everyday and not know if someone is reading it.
