Unless Ron Paul miraculously gets elected and abolishes the IRS, we’ll have to live with them. So to make it easier in the meantime, doesn’t it feel like we should just use the following form?

NEW TAX FORM (A) How much did you make last year?______(B) How much do you have left?___________

Amazing Faith

Jokes No Comments »

Three nuns were on a road trip when their car ran out of gas. They walked a mile to the nearest gas station. “Can you help us?” they asked the owner. “Unfortunately,” he replied, “I don’t have any gas cans left.” One nun asked, “Oh please, isn’t there anything we can use to carry some gas back to our car?”

The owner looked around and finally found an old bedpan. So they filled the bedpan with gas and the nuns very carefully began the long walk back to their car.

Just as they reached their car and began pouring the gas into the tank, a truck driver pulled over to see if he could help. Upon seeing what was happening, he yelled out the window, “Sisters, I wish I had your faith!”

Home Improvement Magic

homedepot1.gifSo it turns up that I’ve been missing a vital step in the home improvement process.

We’ve got an old home that has required a lot of trips to Lowes, The Home Depot, etc. And I’ve purchased a lot of things - tools, materials, you name it.

But apparently, just purchasing those items doesn’t solve the problem. Turns out you actually have to use those things in order for the work to get done. Just putting them in your garage doesn’t seem to work. Dang it. Sure wish it worked automagically.


By the way, if you’re crazy enough like me to tackle a major floor remodel, you absolutely have to check out Lumber Liquidators Clearance. They have amazing selection and prices.

Automagically

Online Humor 1 Comment »

Every so often, I’ll get an urgent text message on my phone that says that there was a problem with my web server. But not to fear as “A restart was attempted automagically.”

Automagically? Sure, why not? Anything’s possible on the internet!

Rather than report the odd choice of the use of the word to my webhost, I just let it slide. After all, if I smile every time I get a message about a problem with my server, what’s wrong with that. Perhaps there’s some hidden genius in their choice of words.

=============

By the way, if you’re in need of a rock-solid webhost, you owe it to yourself to check out ServInt.com. It might cost a few dollars more than the “cheap boys” out there. But you gain real, solid support - if you happen to need it. Their VPS technology is rock-solid. Oh, and they operate in the good ‘ol US and A.

Crazy Domain Names

Online Humor 3 Comments »

If you’ve tried to purchase a good domain name in the last year or two, you know just how bloody hard it has become. If in the course of your searching, you are surprised to find that a good name is available, you should probably buy it. Chances are, you’ll waste another two hours looking at hundreds more domain names and then go back to the one that made you say, “Real? Wow! That’s not too bad.”

But the thing that I funny - and by funny in this case I mean infuriatingly frustrating - is that there’s usually nothing good at the other end of what you want. For instance, on this blog, I wanted a good domain name related to humor. How do you shorten humor when using a keyboard? With a “ha” of course.

So, let’s start with ha.com. No surprise this is taken, right? Every two-letter combination was taken long before Internet Explorer perverted the net.

And of course, without a time machine going back to 1995, there’s no chance of haha.com. But at least this is a good solid humor site. I wasn’t surprised either to find hahaha.com, or hahahaha.com taken. But then it starts getting ridiculous!
hahahahahahahahahahahaha.com
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha.com
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.com -(that’s 14 ha’s ) All taken!

Now, I’ve seen some funny things in my life. Many worthy of 8 or 9 ha’s, a small handful worthy of 10 ha’s, and possibly, just maybe, a few things that could command 11 or 12 ha’s. But I don’t think there’s anything that could be posted online that would command 14 ha’s. I’m not saying the world hasn’t seen it, but capturing a 14 ha moment? Yet to be done.

Besides, how do you share that address? Do you tell someone to type 14 ha’s in a row dot com? But even 14hasinarow.com is a shorter URL!

Perhaps there’s some brilliance behind that domain purchase? Maybe they’re betting on it being worthy someday. I doubt we’re close to a 14 ha moment online anytime soon. But I’ve also learned never to bet against the internet.

If you hurry, you can still grab hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.com
