Thank Your Military

Someone Explain This Harley Ad To Me....

ONE WORD OR TWO...

An elderly couple, who were both widowed, had been going out with each other for a long time. Urged on by their friends, they decided it was finally time to get married.

Before the wedding, they went out to dinner and had a long conversation regarding how their marriage might work. They discussed finances, living arrangements, and so on.

Finally, the old gentleman decided it was time to broach the subject of their physical relationship. 'How do you feel about sex? ', he asked, rather tentatively.

'I would like it infrequently' she replied.

The old gentleman sat quietly for a moment, adjusted his glasses, then leaned over towards her and whispered:

Is that one word, or two?

Intel Atom chip draws data center interest

Others said that Atom might work, but only for a minority of data center environments. Todd Swank, the director of marketing for Burnside, Minn.-based systems builder Nor-Tech, said he could envision using Atom chips in data center servers, but the applications are few and far between.

"Obviously Atom is a low-power processor," Swank said. "From that perspective, if power is a big priority, it could make sense. But for the server applications we get, people [need] Xeon-level performance."

Monster Truck Rally - Minnesota State Fair - 8/30/06

This is one of my most popular videos on Youtube.  As of this writing, it's been watched more than 650,000 times.  I took my family to the Monster Truck Rally at the Minnesota State Fair back in 2006 and this was the result!


Marrying a Wisconsin Girl

Three friends married women from different parts of the Midwest.

The first man married a woman from Minnesota .. He told her that she was to do the dishes and house cleaning. It took a couple of days, but on the third day, he came home to see a clean house and dishes washed and put away.

The second man married a woman from Iowa . He gave his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes and the cooking. The first day he didn't see any results, but the next day he saw it was better.  By the third day, he saw his house was clean, the dishes were done and there was a huge dinner on the table.

The third man married a girl from Wisconsin . He ordered her to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed, and hot meals on the table for every meal. He said the first day he didn't see anything, the second day he didn't see anything but by the third day, some of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye, and his arm was healed enough that he could fix himself a sandwich and load the dishwasher.

He still has some difficulty when he pees.

Masterpieces in 3D

(Apparently Samsung has pulled all copies of this video from Youtube.  Not sure why.  It was a great video!!  If anyone knows why or finds a different version of this video, please email me at shortarmguy@aol.com Thanks!! )

With new 3D TV technology getting better all the time, haven't you wondered what classic works of art would look like in 3D?

Make sure to watch full screen and at 720 resolution….

Nice Emails of the Week - April 10, 2010

Hello from Poland :)


I just thought you might need this some time - "kocham Ciê" is I love you in polish ;) I've seen this on your site this week and thought it might be useful. It's just great to see how passionate you are with all your family. Sometimes I wonder, how hard it is to capture the whole week just in few pages in the web - I'm not sure I'm able to...That's the second time I write to you, and for the second time, I've got the same problem - what can I give, what can I expose to tell something about me and me family..? Well we don't have any children - probably we will have them never...but still we're tiring to figure our lives out, knowing we must be the best of us each other. It's not easy, it's not easy being 27 and knowing you'll have to replace all the love your wife would give and assume from her children...It's even harder because you know you have to give twice more...or should you give twice or triple more every time, no matter if you have a child or not...Anyway - it's good to see you're doing fine, it's good to see that your family is the most important part of your life (I've went through your site, I know where your work, but I really don't know what you're doing in your job - and that's fine). It's something I have to learn, and it's something I'm trying to learn every Monday, while I read your site...


Thanks a lot. Best wishes from Poland.

I live in Vista, just north of San Diego and felt Sunday’s quake big time.

I work in the basement of a 8 story hospital so we’re all
paranoid now… I made this after getting home from work Monday… 

Made myself chuckle… may make one for real…. lol


Have a good weekend Buddy.

Hey man!

I saw this at the grocery store and took a picture of it will my cell----found it to be hilarious! I showed the wife the can and she just looked at me with that "will you grow" up look but I was laughing too much to care. It was in the International food isle under "Britain"---who would have known? I've never heard of this kind of pudding but no matter how hungry I would be, I'd pass.
