Hi Daryl!

 DS>   Since we can't do sound effects in the "text messages", I found
 DS> the deal on YouTube. It wasn't the Peter Gunn theme, but this it:

 BM> I could see how that could have been brought back from a dusty memory
 BM> as the Peter Gunn Theme.
 DS>   I wonder where the little booger got gas for his car...since he
 DS> did save a bunch of money on his car insurance. <G>

If he's smart he would have gotten his gas at a low price with other 
savings like those with grocery store ponts!


 DS>   Or "An overnight blizzard is God saying 'Take Today Off From
 DS> Work'" <G>.
 BM> As so the Devil created telecommuting to work!
 DS>   Or in "The Fat Bible" where God creates all these healthy and
 DS> nutritious foods, Satan basically says "Forget nutrition!! Bring
 DS> on the luscious fat!!". So, man is sitting on the couch, eating
 DS> junk food to the max, and has a massive heart attack. So, God
 DS> created quadruple bypass surgery...and Satan created HMO's. <G>

Must have been an undesireable human if both are trying to keep on 
Earth!



 DS> ... Digital watch owners, your days are numbered!
 
That reminded me: at the store I wore an analog watch -- bring up the
arm, glance at the time, done.  No buttons to push.  Would get asked
what time it was and I soon learned most had no concept of 'quarter of'
and the like, so had to say "8:45".  Then for some reason that also
created a problem, as did "8:10" and even "8:05"; the 'marker' times
(where the clock digits are or would be) seemed not be be giving a sense
of accuracy like a digital display would, even though both analog and 
digital times have "8:15".  Ended up learning to lie a bit: if
really-truely 8:15 would say '8:16' and never be questioned like I had 
been with '8:15'.

... Q: How long does take to put on a pair of underwear?
