Barry,

 BM> Mine has an option to turn off not-in-use apps: leaves them up if the
 BM> user has them going but after a period of time doesn't update them.
 BM> Good for e-mail, not so good to turn off weather alerts!  (Can pick and
 BM> choose: go through the list.)

  I have those set with the FEMA app.

 DS> I was wrong, but I was mistaken.
 BM> That's right!
 DS>   Sounds like politicians...never believe anything until
 DS> officially denied.

 BM> And then the next commercial will deny the denying!

  To them, denial is de river in Egypt...but then Egypt is what he did
to his constituents (he gypped). :P

 DS>   Like the deal with the warning labels...such as "Cape does not
 DS> permit user to fly".

 BM> Sure it does: "I'm flying! I'm flying! <thud!>".

  <looking in phone book for attorneys>

 BM> Too bad you weren't in a German community: 'Rathaus' is 'city hall'.

  According to the Chinese Zodiac, I was born under the sign of the RAT.
And, I use a ham radio digital mode called D-Rats. But, I didn't want
them moving in.

 DS>   Mister Sixteen Tons. :)

 BM> The Fat Albert character of the Bill Cosby cartoons?!

  I liked the one with the 2 "groups" competing in "Buck Buck". The first
one says the others have rocks in their pockets to make them heavier. Well,
at the second group, it was like:

1) What was that?? A mosquito??
2) A piece of paper!!

  Then, it was "We have you beat!! Bring out your last man".

  Dead Silence, then a booming voice "Come Out, Fat Albert!!"...followed
by "Hey, Hey, Hey!!"...and an earthquake. When they saw Fat Albert, the
other group surrendered (no pressure).

 DS>   I've tried walking around the house (I live alone) in the buff,
 DS> and that doesn't work. <G>

 BM> The 'around' implies inside, not the outside!

  Remember, at a nudist wedding, you can tell who the best man is. :P

 DS> got so cramped by sitting so long. My legs basically turned to
 DS> water when I tried to stand up, then my pants fell down. Had I
 DS> not had Depends on, it would have been "full moon rising". :P

 BM> So I see!

  I can't understand how these idiots have to walk with their saggy pants.
Even if they knew what it meant, they likely wouldn't care.

 DS>   On that train trip next June, I'll have the walker and my cane
 DS> with me.

 BM> Johnny Walker?!

  Well, my walker and cane are red...so, that makes it Johnnie Walker Red. 
<G>

 BM> A.k.a. 'sliders'.  Haven't had those either - probably good, but a
 BM> hors d'oeuvres hamburger?

  Basically, a quick snack. Lately, I've scarfed cans of beanie weenies, as
I needed something to take some medicine with before bedtime. I also bought
some strawberry cheesecake donuts.

 BM> Having some food in the house for weather emergencies makes sense --
 BM> even if just raining and don't want to go out and get wet.

  Especially considering how folks drive around here.

Daryl
