Member of the blog family needs help
I don't know how many here remember cdmarine, but she used to post on the big blog back when Dean was running for president. At Daily Kos, she posts as hyperbolic pants explosion, and in the past few days a family crisis has been unfolding. I'm not sure how much of the story I should post here,
but please check out her most recent Kos diary: "

Just in case you ever get these two environments mixed up, this should make things a little bit clearer.

IN PRISON..........you spend the majority of your time in a 10X10 cell.

AT WORK............you spend the majority of your time in an 8X8 cubicle.

IN PRISON..........you get three meals a day.
AT WORK...........you get a break for one meal, and you have to pay for it.

IN PRISON...........you get time off for good behavior.
AT WORK............you get more work for good behavior.

IN PRISON...........the guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you.
AT WORK............you must often carry a security card and open all the doors for yourself.

IN PRISON..........you can watch TV and play games.
AT WORK...........you could get fired for watching TV and playing games.

IN PRISON..........you get your own toilet.
AT WORK...........you have to share the toilet with some people who pee on the seat.

IN PRISON...........they allow your family and friends to visit.
AT WORK............you aren't even supposed to speak to your family.

IN PRISON..........all expenses are paid by the taxpayers with no work required.
AT WORK...........you get to pay all your expenses to go to work, and they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners.

IN PRISON..........you spend most of your life inside bars wanting to get out.
AT WORK .........you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars.

IN PRISON .......you must deal with sadistic wardens.
AT WORK...........they are called managers.

Technology: Dial 'H' for 'Human'

Newsweek

Jan. 23, 2006 issue - These days, your chances of calling a big company and not having to talk to a computer are just about zilch. Unless you know a few tricks. A Winchester, Mass., man has compiled a cheat sheet on his blog at
paulenglish.com/ivr/ listing more than 200 direct numbers and secrets to avoiding getting trapped in the computerized-voice maze.

The list includes all the worst offenders: government agencies, credit-card companies, big retailers, phone and technology companies, shipping services and cable TV. Trying to reach DHL? Dial the toll-free number (800-225-5345), then press 1, press 5, press 0.When calling Sears (800-4-MY-HOME), remain silent. If you don't press any numbers, your call gets placed right in the line. Some businesses catch on to the cheaters and reprogram their systems. But you can always try such common tactics as pressing 0, 0#, #0, *0 or 0* repeatedly; or connecting to sales and then asking them to transfer you; or saying "agent" or "representative." Then pray there aren't 100 callers ahead of you.

"My home town paper, no less. Well, I guess they are almost right around the corner from Google and stuff..Anyway, it turns out:The Bush administration on Wednesday asked a federal judge to order Google to turn over a broad range of material from its closely guarded databases".

And this email I received today:
"Subject: How to call information w/o a charge! I have put the number into my cell phone and It really works. :)
Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 or more for 411 / information calls when they don't have to. When you need to use the 411 / information option, simply dial 1 800 FREE 411 or 1 800 373 3411 without incurring a charge at all except for the minutes required to make the call. This is information people don't mind receiving - Pass it on. Works on home phone also".


btw, haven't tried this yet but will & will be interested to receive info back from my blogsphere friends to see if, indeed, it really does work!

Finally: Since I will be attending two reunions this year, I decided to purchase my first digital camera & don't have a clue where to start as far as what to ask for & where to purchase it, etc. I want to be able to post pics on the Internet but not anything real fancy or expensive... would appreciate any feedback I can get.

CIA JOB OPENING

The CIA had an opening for an assassin. After all the background checks, interviews and testing were done, there were 3 finalists...2 men and a woman.

For the final test the CIA agents took one of the men to a large metal door and handed him a gun. "We must know that you will follow your instructions no matter what the circumstances. Inside this room you will find your wife sitting in a chair. Kill her!"

The man said, "You can't be serious. I could never shoot my wife." The agent said, "Then you're not the right man for this job. Take your wife and go home."

The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went into the room. All was quiet for about five minutes. Then the man came out with tears in his eyes. "I tried, but I can't kill my wife."

The agent said, "You don't have what it takes. Take your wife and go home."

Finally, it was the woman's turn. She was given the same instructions to kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were heard, one shot after another, eight in a row. They heard screaming, crashing, and banging on the walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet.

The door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat from her brow. "This gun is loaded with blanks," she said. "I had to beat him to death with the chair."

Moral: Never put a woman to the test.

It's not morning, but, oh well...

We all get heavier as we get older because there's a lot more information in our heads. So I'm not fat, I'm just really intelligent and my head couldn't hold any more so it started filling up the rest of me!

LIBERALS usually embrace freedom of choice in personal matters, but tend to support significant government control of the economy. They generally support a government-funded
"safety net"to help the disadvantaged, and advocate strict regulation of business. Liberals tend to favor environmental regulations, defend civil liberties and free expression, support government action to promote equality, and tolerate diverse lifestyles.
