    Three men were sitting in a bar bragging about how they had given their new wives their duties.
    The first man had married a women from Albania and bragged that he had told his wife she was going to do all the dishes and house cleaning that needed to be done. He said it took a couple of days, but on the third day he came home to a clean house and the dishes were washed and put away.
    The second man had married a woman from Korea. He bragged that he had given his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, the dishes and the cooking. He told them that the first day he didn't see any results, but the next day was better. By the third day his house was clean, the dishes were done and he had a huge dinner on the table.
    The third man married a Dublin girl. he boasted that he told her she was to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry done, and that he wanted hot meals on the table for every meal. He said the first day he didn't see any results, the second day he didn't see anything. The third day most of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye.

    Get the facts first. You can distort them later.

    Sometimes too much drink is barely enough.

    The difference between the right word and almost the right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.

    In the first place God made idiots; that was for practice; then he made school boards.

    all Mark Twain

    A fool and his money are soon elected.

    Everybody is ignorant, only on different subjects.

    If stupidity got us into this mess, why can't it get us out?

    Be thankful we're not getting all the government we're paying for.

    Being a hero is the shortest-lived profession on earth.

    I don't make jokes, I just watch the government and report the facts.

    It isn't what we don't know that gives us trouble, it's what we know aint so.

    Our Constitution protects aliens, drunks, and U.S. Senators.

    Income tax has made liars out of more Americans than golf.

    The more you observe this "Politics" thing, you've got to admit that each party is worse than the other, and the one that's out always looks the best.

    In honor of the chess match starting a few threads over, a gamer's review of chess.

    Game Review of Chess
    The latest offering in the rapidly overflowing strategy genre is hard evidence that strategy games need a real overhaul, and fast. Chess, a small-scale tactical turn-based strategy game, attempts to adopt the age-old "easy to learn, difficult to master" parameter made popular by Tetris. But the game's cumbersome play mechanics and superficial depth and detail all add up to a game that won't keep you busy for long.
    Chess casts you as king of a small country at war with a rival country of equivalent military power. There is little background story to speak of, and by and large the units in the game are utterly lacking any character whatsoever. The faceless, nondescript units are dubbed arbitrarily such labels as "Knight" and "Bishop" while their appearance reveals nothing to suggest these roles. To make matters worse, the units on both playable sides are entirely identical aside from a simple color palette swap.
    The setting of the conflict is equally uninspiring and consists merely of a two-color grid so as to represent the two warring factions. Adding insult to injury, there is only one available map - and it's pathetically small, an 8x8 matrix (Red Alert maps are up to 128x128 in size). The lack of more expansive battlefields makes Chess feel like little more than an over-glorified Minesweeper.
    In a definite nod to Tetris, Chess eschews any kind of personality and styling in order to emphasize its supposedly addictive gameplay. Unfortunately, that gameplay is severely lacking. For one thing, there are only six units in the game. Of those six, two are practically worthless while one is an overpowered "god" unit, the Queen. She's your typical Lara Croft-esque 1990s "me, too" attempt to attract the fabled gaming girl audience from out of the woodwork to help solidify a customer base for a game that simply cannot sell itself on its own merits. The Queen can attack in any direction and she is balanced solely by the fact that both sides are equally equipped with only one. Otherwise, the functions of the six Chess units feel entirely arbitrary. For instance, Rooks can only move in horizontal lines, unable to attack enemies at diagonal angles; yet Bishops can move diagonally, but not horizontally.
    The result is a frustratingly unrealistic effort at creating balance and strategy where there is, in fact, very little of either element to be found. Inexplicable pathing problems also plague Chess - the irritating Pawns can only move straight ahead, but for some reason or other they attack diagonally. Worst of all, your units are always deployed in exactly the same fashion. While there might have been some strategic element involved in cleverly deploying one's troops around the undeniably constricted map, the designers saw fit to enforce a "rule" about how the game should be set up. In the end, Chess matches may often go on for a great length of time because your Pawns always begin in front of your more useful forces, thereby blocking them off.
    Only two players can compete simultaneously, thus severely limiting any play life to be found. There is only one gameplay mode - no capture the flag or team play - and that involves the two players taking turns moving their units one by one. The moment a player's King is threatened, that player is placed in a state of "check." At this point, the player must defend his King with whatever means are available. If he cannot defend his King, he is defeated. Yawn. All units are killed by a single hit, so even a lowly Pawn can be instrumental in defeating an opponent if you plan accordingly. While the artificial balance of forcing equivalent deployment for both sides turns Chess into something of a battle of wits, the turn-based play is poorly paced and never really picks up speed until halfway through a game, if then. And half the time, because of the limited troops available (and no resources with which to purchase more), matches end in disappointing stalemates.
    This game attempts to accredit itself by virtue of its tactical play mechanics. Yet those mechanics are tedious and difficult to grasp and exacerbate Chess's other numerous failings. In fact, should you actually memorize all the infuriating little rules governing how the game is played, you'll find yourself growing weary of it all in short order. There's just no payoff to a properly executed game, because the restrictions on the units mean there's a "right" way to play. Thus no real variety can exist between competent players. The sluggish turn-based nature of Chess bogs the package still further and renders this strategy game an irreverent exercise in wasted time for all but the most die-hard turn-based strategy enthusiasts. It's more than likely that Chess, due to its self-conscious though not entirely elegant simplicity, will garner a small handful of fans. But in light of this game's boundless oversights and limitations, there is no chance it could ever enjoy the sort of success that makes games like Westwood's C&C: Red Alert and Blizzard's Warcraft II the classics they are to this day.

    So much like real war it's scary......no?

    We'll see if those others last 24-2600 years.

    Hmm, this is a modernized version of a spoof review I remember to have read before there were any computer games, sometime in the Cenozoic...

    For curiosity's sake, something else related here.

    The Government Job

    A guy goes to his local government agency to apply for a job. The interviewer asks him, "Have you been in the service?"

    Yes," he says. "I was in the armed forces for three years."

    The interviewer says, "That will give you extra points toward employment." He then asks, "Are you disabled in any way?"

    The guy says, "Yes, 100%. A mortar round exploded near me and blew my testicles off."

    The interviewer tells the guy, "OK, based on your qualifications and veteran's status I can hire you right now. The hours are from 8:00 AM till 5:00 PM. You can start tomorrow. Come in at 10:00 AM."

    The guy is puzzled and says, "If the hours are from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM , then why do you want me to come in at 10:00 AM?"

    "This is a government job", the interviewer says. "For the first two hours we stand around scratching our balls. No point in you coming in for that."

    "Who had this retarded idea? I don't give a shit about Bretons! I'm going to be surrounded by ten c**** looking at a map!" was his reported response to hearing his final campaign photoshoot was going to be at a radar station in Brittany (Much of Bretagne voted for Ségolène Royal).

    Two women were playing golf.. One teed off and watched in horror as her ball headed directly toward afoursome of men playing the next hole. The ball hit one of the men. He immediately clasped his hands together at his groin, fell to the ground and proceeded to roll around in agony. The woman rushed down to the man, and immediately began to apologize. "Please allow me to help. I'm a physical therapist and I know I couldrelieve your pain if you'd allow me,"she told him. "Oh, no, I'll be all right. I'll be fine in a few minutes," the man replied. He was in obvious agony, lying in the foetal position, still clasping hishands together at his groin. At her persistence, however, he finally allowed her to help. She gently took his hands away and laid them to the side, loosenedhis pantsand put her hands inside. She administered tender and artful massage for several long moments and asked,"How does that feel"? He replied, "It feels great, but my thumb still hurts like hell!"

    A fart it is a pleasant thing,
    It gives the belly ease,
    It warms the bed in winter,
    And suffocates the fleas.
    A fart can be quiet,
    A fart can be loud,
    Some leave a powerful,
    Poisonous cloud.

    A fart can be short,
    Or a fart can be long,
    Some farts have been known
    To sound like a song.....
    A fart can create
    a most curious medley,
    A fart can be harmless,
    Or silent , and deadly.

    A fart might not smell,
    While others are vile,
    A fart may pass quickly,
    Or linger a while.....
    A fart can occur
    In a number of places,
    And leave everyone there,
    With strange looks on their faces.

    From wide-open prairie,
    To small elevators,
    A fart will find all of us
    Sooner or later.

    But farts are all bad,
    Is simply not true-
    We must never forget......
    Old farts like you!
