Nob, the noted / / /'''---/;;;;;;,., painting collector, jgs \ \__\...---\;;;;;;;" had a bright idea '------------------'''' ```` one day. He thought that if he got an artist to paint some herd animals and have them printed up on 8"x10" stock, he could paper the wall of his den with multiple repeated images and create the illusion that there was a large herd outside a window, thus giving the illusion of space in the room. He hired his favorite brushslinger, C. Ommon Hak, to carry out his wishes. When the painting was complete, he was astounded. At least a dozen large wildebeest roamed the African scene on a large canvas. Art gleefully rushed to the print shop, where Wysiwyg "Pro" Cessor did print jobs for many artists. "Whiz" looked at the canvas and asked: "Do you want me to shrink the painting down to 8x10?" Realizing his mistake, Art sighed. "No," he replied, "they would be too small to identify." "Cut out the best 8x10 section and use that, and get as many of the critters as possible onto it without cutting any parts off 'em." A week later Art went back to the shop ,/ \, to pick up his new wallpaper. He // \\ shrieked his dismay when he looked at ((__,-"""-,__)) the top copy. "What's the problem?" `--)~ ~(--` the printer inquired. "there are only .-'( )`-, two wildebeest on this!" moaned Art. `~~`d) (b`~~` "I wanted more!" | | | | | | "Hey, man, I'm sorry" replied Wysiwyg. | | "I did the best I could, and this is: | | jgs (6___6) ...

"We estimate that throughout the world at any given moment several million people are getting a `General Protection Fault' or `Illegal Operation' warning. We will be able to generate significant revenue by including a short advertising message along with it," said Microsoft marketing director Nathan Mirror. He also mentioned that Microsoft is intended to add banner ads into its Blue Screen of Death in the near future. _ _ ___ _ _ _ _ The Justice |:| |:| /:::\ |:| |:| |_ | | |_ Department |:| |:| /:/'\:\ |:| |:| | | |_ |_ immediately |:|__|:| |:| |:| |:|__|:| _ ___ indicated that |::::::| |:| |:| |::::::| |\ | / \ | they intend to '""""|:| |:| |:| '""""|:| | \| \_/ | investigate |:| |:| |:| |:| _ _ _ whether Microsoft |:| |:\ |:| |:| |_ / \ | | |\ | | \ is gaining an |:| \:\_/:/ |:| | \_/ \_/ | \| |_/ unfair advantage |:| \:::/ |:| in reaching the '"' '"' '"' public with this advertising by virtue of its semi-monopolistic control over error messages. _ http://www.funnybone.com/recommend/ _ (_'-----------------------------------------------'_) (_.===============================================._) A man is eating in a fancy restaurant and there is a gorgeous woman eating at the next table. He has been checking her out all night but lacks the nerve to go talk to her. Suddenly she sneezes and her glass eye comes flying out of her socket towards the man. He reflexively grabs and snatches it out of the air. "Oh my god, I'm soooorry," the woman says as she pops her eye back in place. "Let me buy you dinner to make it up to you." They enjoy a wonderful dinner together and afterwards the woman invites him to the theater followed by drinks. After paying for everything, she asks him if he would like to come to breakfast the next morning. When he arrives the next morning, she has cooked a gourmet meal with all the trimmings. The guy is amazed. "You know, you are the perfect woman. Are you this nice to every guy you meet?" _....,_ _,...._ "No, she replies, _.-` _,..,_'. .'_,..,_ `-._ "You just happened to catch _,-`/ o \ '. .' / o \`-,_ my eye." jgs '-.\___/.-` `-.\___/.-' _ _ (_'-----------------------------------------------'_) (_.===============================================._) _ .-.
