WEATHER-WISE AND OTHERWISE

This photo was on the front page of our local newspaper the other day.  The headline above it read
AREN’T YOU GLAD YOU LIVE IN CALIFORNIA.

My answer?  YES!  The weather forecast for the next several days is sunny with highs in the upper 60’s and low 70’s.

John Madden is in Dallas for the Super Bowl.  It is freezing there.  On the radio this morning John was asked if the Dallas residents were a bit humbled by the weather.  John:  “Humbled?  No, defensive.  But they’re not going out of their houses.”

Otherwise --
When I fell last week and hit my head, it put my jaw a bit out of place, enough so that my lower partial doesn’t fits properly.  I was afraid I might need a new denture, an expensive proposition at best, but my chiropractor says he can straighten out my head so that my teeth work properly.  Thank Heaven!

Time for humor, computer variety --

Tech  support:    What kind of computer do you have?

Tech support:   Have you tried pushing the Button?
Customer:    Yes, sure, it's really stuck.
Tech  support:    That doesn't sound good; I'll make a note.
Customer:    No , wait a minute. I hadn't inserted it yet... it's still on my desk... sorry...

Tech  support:  ;   Click  on the 'my computer' icon on to the left of the screen.
Customer:    Your left or my left?

Tech  support:    Good  day. How may I help you?
Male  customer:    Hello... I can't print.
Tech support: Would you click on  'start'  for me and....
Customer:   Listen pal; don't start getting technical on me! I'm not Bill Gates.

  1. It's less expensive to straighten your head than your lower partial? Cool.

  2. LOL My Oscar is in Tech support, these days he handles business phone tech support (for the installing and repair techs) but for years he took just this kind of call :-}

    I am glad your chiropractor can help, and looking at out Michigan piece of the snow, I wish I lived in California again, at least a few months of the year :-}

  3. Don't eat any jawbreakers. Munching on one of those at a party would be a bad idea, as nobody candynight.
