Off Topic - a couple of 'tee-hees' for you

Male or Female

===============

As you are aware, ships have long been characterized as being

female (e.g., "Steady as she goes", or "She's listing to

starboard, Captain!"). Recently, a group of computer scientists

(all males) announced that computers should also be referred to

as female. Their reasons for drawing this conclusion follow.

FIVE REASONS to believe computers are female:

1. No one but the Creator understands their internal logic.

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers

is incomprehensible to everyone else.

3. The message "Bad command or file name" is about as

informative as, "If you don't know why I'm mad at you,

then I'm certainly not going to tell you."

4. Even your smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory

for later retrieval.

5. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself

spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

However, another group of computer scientists (all female) think

that computers should be referred to as if they were male.

Their reasons follow.

FIVE REASONS to believe computers are male:

1. They have a lot of data, but are still clueless.

2. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the

time they are the problem.

3. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that, if you had

waited a little longer, you could have obtained a better model.

4. In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on.

5. Big power surges knock them out for the rest of the night.

NOW FOR SOME refreshing news for your holiday reading:

According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game

while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in

the summer each year,

male reindeer drop their antlers

at the beginning of winter, usually late November to

mid-December.

Female reindeer retain their antlers

till after they give birth in the spring.

Therefore, according to every historical rendition

depicting Santa's reindeer, every single one of them,

from Rudolph to Blitzen- had to be a girl.

We should've known. Only women, while pregnant, would

be able to drag a fat man in a red velvet suit all

around the world in one night and not get lost!!!!!

If anyone else has OTHER "TEE-HEES" to add, do it here - who will be NEXT? LOL
