Due to the popularity of computers and the IQ of those now owning one, I am forced to revise my rates. Heretofor and forevermore (until the next price hike) is the Rate structure: New computer helpdesk support fees: Calling me with a question - $10 Calling me with a stupid question - $30 Calling me with a stupid question you can't quite articulate - $50 Implying I'm incompetent because I can't interpret your inarticulate problem description - $100...
When you blog in a community like Joeuser, and people read you, they form opinions of who you are and how you tick. None of which can be true as some have shown us to be frauds. Yet the ones that are at least semi sincere, and are not trying to be Hercules or WOnder Woman, will reveal parts of themselves in their writing. Both in their blogs and in their comments. So when someone changes their writing nuances, it is noticed. At least by some. That does not mean t...
A question raised on shadowars blog got me to thinking. Now I know I can google it and wade through a gazillion hits to find the answers, but I have a question for everyone. EVERYONE! There is no right or wrong answers, but I do ask (note: not demand) that links be provided. During Clintons 8 years in the presidency, were the officials of the Bush 41 administration out on the news shows, and newspapers, criticizing every step the Clintons did? Please dont quote Limbaugh.&nbs...
Moderateman has started a thread for lawyer jokes, and I have contributed my share. As have others. Lawyers are not a very respected profession, altho they are very well paid. They scream they are just doing their job, and I guess their job is not the truth or justice, but to maximize the benefit to their client, whether it is right or not. In that many do a very good job. But doing a very good job as they define it, is disgusting to what most people would call a civil...
A week ago, Bakerstreet reported, humorously, that Hillary Clinton got morals! http://bakerstreet.joeuser.com/index.asp?aid=81215 She was outraged and was demanding that we pass a law. Why? Because a popular video game had a hack to it that would allow some very racy sexcapades! Never mind the game itself is nothing but a gore fest designed to teach the player how to kill people and avoid arrest! No, this mod would allow the end user to have cybersex on thei...
I thought of putting this under humor, but it is true! Some teachers in England want to replace the term 'fail' with 'deferred success'! It appears telling a student they failed is damaging to their ego! Never mind, that life is full of fails for all people! Hell, I did not like getting Fs on my report card or tests either! But it made me try harder to make sure it did not happen again! but in this brave new world, where we cannot damage their tender little egos, so...
Apparently some of the prisoners at Gitmo have decided that no one is paying attention to them, so they have gone on a hunger strike. Officials are monitoring their health. Which is kind of funny. If they were free and not blowing up little children, they would probably be starving anyway. I guess they feel guilt at eating well while their 'blow up brethren' are not eating at all! Why are we monitoring their health? I know, because we are not the animals they are.&n...

Just after posting this article: JoeUser... I come before you on a matter of grave import. I come to speak to an issue that threatens the very fabric of our little Universe, our sacred corner of the great Information Superhighway. This is a disease of the mind, one that is highly contagous and is slowly eating away at the moral and intellectual fiber of this great place. JU went dark for days! While the Team of Wonder Karma, Cordelia Underdog, and her faithful companion Kator...

Before the Teleprompter had finished spitting its lines across its screen Tuesday Night, Democrat reaction was swift, and for the most part muted. One exception was little Chucky Schumer who was going to take his ball and go home if the Nominee for SCOTUS did not answer all questions fully (what is the Atomic Weight of Anhydrous Di-Oxide Mr. Roberts!). But he is rapidly being marginalized as a screamer who playing second fiddle to his states Jr Senator. The other scream of outrage...
Tim Brown, Mr. Raider of the 90s, was resigned for a day so he could retire a Raider. He holds almost every receiving record on the Raiders nd is one of my all time favorite players as he was was never selfish when it came to glory. Now that he is a retired man of leisure, he is thinking about buying a Nascar team! If he does, I am going to be rooting for his team all the way. I have never been interested in watching a bunch of guys (and an occassional girl) run around a tra...
Is it live? Or just an hallucination? Can we play again?
