2. Medical Technology
One day Bill complained to his friend that his elbow really hurt. His
friend suggested that he could go to a computerized machine at the drug store that can
diagnose anything - quicker and cheaper than a doctor. He further said - "'Simply
put in a sample of your urine and the computer will diagnose your problem
and tell you what to do about it. It only costs $10." Bill figured he had
nothing to lose, and it was really cheap, so he filled a bottle with his
urine sample and went to the drug store.
Finding the machine, he poured in the sample and deposited the $10.
The computer started making some noises and various lights started
flashing. After a brief pause out popped a small slip of paper on which
was printed: "You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water. Avoid
heavy lifting. It will be better in two weeks." Bill got very happy with
the diagnosis.
Later that evening, while thinking how amazing this new technology was
and how it would change medical science forever, he began to wonder if
this machine could be fooled, so he mixed together some tap water, a stool
sample from his dog and urine samples from his wife and daughter, and to
top it off, he masturbated into the concoction.
He went back to the drug store, located the machine, poured the
sample in and deposited the $10. The computer again made the usual noises and
printed out the following message: "Your tap water is too hard. Get a
water softener. Your dog has worms. Get him vitamins. Your daughter is
using cocaine. Put her in a rehabilitation clinic. Your wife is pregnant
with twin girls. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer. And if you don't stop
jerking off, your tennis elbow will never get better."
3. A Modern Fairy Tale
Once upon a time, there was a software engineer who used to develop
programs on his Pentium machine, sitting under a tree on the banks of a
river. He used to earn his bread by selling those programs in the Sunday
market.
One day, while he was working, his machine tumbled off the table and fell
in the river. Encouraged by the Panchatantra story of his childhood (the
woodcutter and the axe) he started praying to the River Goddess. The River
Goddess wanted to test him, so she appeared only after one month of
rigorous prayers. The engineer told her that he had lost his computer in
the river.
As usual (according to that Panchtantra story), the Goddess wanted to test
his honesty. She showed him a match box and asked - "Is this your
computer?" Disappointed by the Goddess' lack of computer awareness, the
engineer replied - "No" She again took a deep dip in the river and came
out with a pocket-sized calculator. Showing it to him she asked if that
was his. Somewhat annoyed, the engineer said - "No, not at all !!"
Finally, she came up with his own Pentium machine and asked if it was his.
The engineer, left with no option, sighed and said "Yes."
The River Goddess was happy with his honesty. She was about to give him
all the three items, but before she could make the offer, the engineer
asked her - "Don't you think that you're supposed to show me some better
computers before bringing up my own?"
The River Goddess replied angrily - "I know that and I did that, You stupid
donkey! The first two things I showed you were the Trillennium and the
Billennium computers - the latest computers from IBM!". So saying, she
disappeared with his Pentium!! He remained standing on the shore of the
river for long time repenting on his own knowledge base.
If you're not up-to-date with technology trends, it's better to keep your
mouth shut and let people think you're a genius than to open your mouth
and remove their all doubts.

If the C wasn't there, we'd all be using BASI, PASAL and OBOL. A
Little-known magic fact:
The uri_escape() function is how the famed mentalist and spoon bender got

5. Life Before Computers...
An 'application' was only for employment
A 'program' was a TV show
A 'cursor' used profanity
A 'keyboard' was a piano!
'Memory' was something that you lost with age
A 'CD' was a bank account
And if you had a '3 1/2 inch floppy'
You hoped nobody found out!
'Compress' was something you did to garbage
Not something you did to a file
And if you 'unzipped' anything in public
You'd be in jail for awhile!
'Log on' was adding wood to a fire
'Hard drive' was a long trip on the road
A 'mouse pad' was where a mouse lived
And a 'backup' happened to your commode!
'Cut' - you did with a pocket knife
'Paste' you did with glue
A 'web' was a spider's home
And a 'virus' was the flu!
I guess I'll stick to my pad and paper
And the memory in my head
I hear nobody's been killed in a 'computer crash'
But when it happens they wish they were dead!
6. Installing a Husband Dear Tech Support,
Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a
distinct slow down in overall system performance -- particularly in the
flower and jeweler applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend
5.0.
In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as
Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5 and then installed undesirable
programs such as Premier League 5.0, Six Nations 3.0, and Golf Clubs 4.1.
Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the
system. I've tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no
avail. What can I do?
Signed,
Desperate.

Dear Desperate,
First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while
Husband 1.0 is an Operating System.
Please enter the command: "HTTP: I Thought You Loved Me.html" and try to
download Tears 6.2 and don't forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update. If
that application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically
run the applications Jeweler 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.
But remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to
default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Beer 6.1 is a
very bad program that will download the Snoring Loudly Beta. Whatever you
do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background
that will eventually seize control of all your system resources). Also, do
not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend 5.0 program. These are unsupported
applications and will crash Husband 1.0.
In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited
memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider
buying additional software to improve memory and performance.
We recommend Food 3.0 and Hot Lingerie 7.7.

ANOTHER REPLY
Dear
Desperate,
Don't waste your money to buy additional software like Food 3.0 or Hot
Lingerie 7.7. Empirically all these software packages don't run longer
than a week. Don't hope for any software to stop the malfunctioning
"Husband 1.0". Either you accept that you fell for a bluff package -
Husband1.0 has never been an update of Boyfriend 0.5 indeed both of them
have nothing in common but gender, or you should consider to delete
Husband1.0. How ever you decide, consider to install Pet 3.6. It runs
perfectly, you can rely on it and it will always welcome you back home
happily.
Yours Faithfully
