FUN FACT OF THE DAY
Sweden on a Sunday morning...September 3, 1967 started out as the typical Sunday morning in Sweden. Except for one little detail. This was the day that Swedish officials decided to switch from driving on the left side to driving on the right side of the road. Apparently not everyone was aware of this switch. There was chaos, confusion, and crashes.

Can't recall what thread this was brought up on but since its a total joke in one sense, I'll post the item here. As I read through the comments below the video I have to wonder if it was in fact a game of sorts to include a freak like this and have "HIM" loose to make it appear fair for future games. There has to be some reason why this idiot threw his chances of even trying to win.

So according to the Jamaican guy that just called me by this time tomorrow I will have 970k more in my bank account!!! Wow, who would have thought that I would be so fortunate as to have an unclaimed account with me as the beneficiary? Actually the guy called me and gave his little speech and I told him I wasn't interested and hung up. He then called me back and asked why I hung up on him. Never had that before. Who still falls for this stuff?

Had a scammer call me by my wife's name once so I couldn't contain my humor and made fun of him. He told me he already took 5 people for s grand each that day. Sadly if it didn't work they wouldn't do it.

I would think they would be more successful if they used more reasonable amounts. I mean $3257.42 sounds a lot more likely to be unclaimed than nearly a million. Maybe people are just that greedy or desperate.

SIGNS THAT SOMEONE IS USING YOUR EMAIL ACCOUNT
1. "Honey, why is an 18-wheeler from Amazon backing into our driveway?" 2. One Secret Service agent is sitting on your head while another is slapping cuffs on you. 3. Apparently, your flame war with DonCorleone@mafia.com is about to turn ugly. 4. When you log on, your computer says "You've got lawsuits!" 5. You're suddenly getting more Spam than the Hormel outlet store. 6. Sotheby's says the Rembrandt is yours and that you now owe them $71,000,000 and change. 7. Your wife calls you at the office to report that Pogdi, your Pakistani mail-order bride, has arrived. 8. "The resistance welcomes your involvement. Your contact information has been forwarded to a local insurgent who will bring supplies and reinforcements to you immediately."

A priest, a doctor, and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with those guys? We must have been waiting for fifteen minutes!"
The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such inept golf!"
The priest said, "Here comes the green-keeper. Let's have a word with him." He said, "Hello George, what's wrong with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?"
The green-keeper replied, "Oh, yes. That's a group of blind firemen. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from that fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime."
The group fell silent for a moment.
The priest said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight."
The doctor said, "Good idea. I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if there's anything he can do for them."
The engineer said, "Why can't they play at night?"

MORE THINGS LEARNED FROM ACTION MOVIES
1. When I shoot people, they will die quickly and cleanly, and I will never be arrested or troubled by their widowed wife and children. When people shoot me, however, I will at most receive a 'flesh wound,' which will be tended to by a beautiful woman.
2. Nuclear weapons will never go off because something will always happen about three seconds before one does to stop it from exploding.
3. If an aged scientist is involved in any way, he will have a beautiful daughter who will gaze at me adoringly.
4. If royalty is involved, it will include a beautiful princess who will gaze at me adoringly.
5. If I have a kid partner, he will be tightly-muscled, clean-cut, and gaze at me adoringly.
6. If I am asked to compete against a world champion at any sport or game of any type, I will win. This will infuriate my opponent, who will then try to kill me.
7. Beautiful women will frequently furrow their brows with concern and ask, "When's the last time you got any sleep?" They will never ask when I last bathed or used the toilet, although I apparently never do those things either.

This ones for you Ken !
I caught my son chewing on electrical cords...So I had to ground him.
He's doing better currently...And conducting himself properly.

That reminds me of one of our young farm dogs who used to chew on extension cords. Then winter came and the only cords to chew on were plugged into the truck block heater. Came out one morning and saw a block heater cord chewed in half while plugged in. Dog never chewed any more cords. Suspect she started conducting herself accordingly after a shocking experience.
