jose canseco

I picked up Jose Canseco’s new book about steroids and it’s amazing.

When I bought it, it was 175 pages. I put it on the table overnight, and the next morning it’s up to 225. It’s amazing.

Mouse balls

This is an actual alert to IBM Field Engineers that went out to all IBM offices.

Abstract: Mouse Balls Available at FRU (Field Replacement Unit)

Mouse balls are now available to FRU. Therefore, if a mouse fails to operate or should it perform erratically, it may need a ball replacement. Because of the delicate nature of this procedure, replacement of mouse balls should only be attempted by properly trained personnel.

Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls by examining the underside of the mouse. Domestic balls will be larger and harder than foreign balls. Ball removal procedures differ depending upon the manufacturer of the mouse. Foreign balls can be replaced using the pop-off method. Domestic balls are replaced using the twist-off method. Mouse balls are not usually static sensitive. However, excessive handling can result in sudden discharge. Upon completion of ball replacement, the mouse may be used immediately.

It is recommended that each replacer have a pair of spare balls for maintaining optimum customer satisfaction, and that any customer missing his balls should suspect local personnel of removing these necessary items.

There is a modeling convention and the girls have to ride a two story bus.

So the brunettes sit on the bottom section and the blonds sit on the top. The brunettes are laughing and having a good time as theyre riding the bus, and one brunette says wow the blonds are really quiet I better go check on them. So she goes up to the top and the blonds are stairing silently forward, holding the rails with white knuckles. The brunette asks whats wrong, were all fine downstairs, and one blond looks up and says well thats because you have a driver.

Statistician and a bomb in an airplane

A famous statistician would never travel by airplane, because he had studied air travel and estimated the probability of there being a bomb on any given flight was 1 in a million, and he was not prepared to accept these odds.

One day a colleague met him at a conference far from home. How did you get here, by train?

No, I flew

What about your the possibiltiy of a bomb?

Well, I began thinking that if the odds of one bomb are 1:million, then the odds of TWO bombs are (1/1,000,000) x (1/1,000,000). This is a very, very small probability, which I can accept. So, now I bring my own bomb along!

Two priests and a rabbi

Two priests and a rabbi were discussing what portion of the weekly collection they kept for themselves. The first priest explained that he drew a circle on the ground, stepped a few paces back and pitched the money towards the circle. What landed in the circle he kept, and what landed outside the circle God kept.The second priest claimed that his method was almost the same, except that what landed outside the circle went to the priest and the money that landed inside the circle God kept.The rabbi said, Ive got you both beat! I throw the money into the air and what God wants, God takes.

Holy Doctors

Once I was sick and I had to go to an ear, nose, and throat man to get well. There are ear doctors, nose doctors, throat doctors, gynecologists, proctologists, any place you got a hole, theres a guy who specializes in your hole.

They make an entire career out of that hole. And if the ear doctor, nose doctor, throat doctor, gynecologist, or proctologist cant help you, he sends you to a surgeon.

Why? So he can make a new hole!

The duck in the bar

A duck walks into a bar, sits down at the barstool, and waits for the bartender.



The bartender walks up, hands the duck a menu, waits a while, and comes back to take his order. Whatll it be? the bartender says.



The duck says, I think Ill have the grapes. Well, Im sorry sir, but this is a bar, we dont serve grapes here. Now, Ill let you look a bit longer and wave when you know what you want.



The duck looks at the menu, then waves the bartender down. Ok, you got your order? The duck nods, saying, Ill think Ill have the grapes.



The bartender, kind of peeved from the duck, says, Look Mac, we dont have any grapes here. This is a bar. We dont serve grapes, so what will you have?!



The duck looks at him in the eyes and says, Ill have the grapes.



The bartender, enraged, shouts, If you ask for the grapes one more time Im going to nail your feathered a** to the barstool!!



The bartender cools off a bit. Now what will you get?! Got any nails? OF COURSE WE DONT HAVE ANY NAILS! WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS IS? AN APPLIANCE STORE?



Good, got any grapes?

Operate!

Four surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work.

The first one said, I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. Everything inside is numbered.



I think librarians are the easiest said the second surgeon. When you open them up all their organs are alphabetically ordered.



The third surgeon said, I prefer to operate on electricians. All their organs are color coded.



The fourth one said, I like to operate on lawyers. They are heartless,spineless, gutless, and their head and their ass are interchangeable.
