Heard on WCCO TV, Minneapolis on 4 Jan 1993:

   "The warming trend is expected to continue. Tomorrow we
     will see a nice high of 21 and of 18 the day after."

Heard the same day on KGH 780 AM Radio, Maui, Hawaii:

   "Folks, the big chill will continue this evening. Bring out
    your wools to fight the lows of 57 tonight. Tomorrow the 
    high will be a bbrrrr... 63."

Subject: Memo of the month <hail ibm>
Date: Tue Jan  5 15:58:51 1993

The following text is supposed to have been appeared in the "washington
monthly", jan-feb 91 issue, page #24.

This is an actual alert to IBM field engineers that went out to all IBM
field offices.  The person who wrote this seems to have been very serious.
Most of us think it is funny.

Abstract: Mouse balls available as FRU  (field replacement unit)

Mouse balls are now available as FRU.  Therefore, if a mouse fails to
operate or should it perform erratically, it may need a ball replacement.
Because of the delicate nature of this procedure, replacement of mouse balls
should only be attempted by properly trained personnel.

Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls by examining the
underside of the mouse.  Domestic balls will be larger and harder than
foreign balls.  Ball removal procedures differ depending upon the

manufacturer of the mouse.  Foreign balls can be replaced using the pop-off
method.  Domestic balls are replaced using the twist-off method.  Mouse
balls are not usually static sensitive.  However, excessive handling can
result in sudden discharge.  Upon completion of ball replacement, the mouse
may be used immediately.

It is recommended that each replacer have a pair of spare balls for
maintaining optimum customer satisfaction, and that any customer missing his
balls should suspect local personnel of removing these necessary items.

To reorder, specify one of the following:
P/N 33F8462 - domestic mouse balls
P/N 33F8461 - foreign mouse balls

As an American, and having been born in Brooklyn, NY. and raised in
New Jersey,  I feel it is my God given right to bastardize the
English language as I see fit.

I'm not necessarily speaking for all Americans, just the real arogant
ones like myself.

As for my login, thats a who nother tale.

Russell, this is not healthy.  People have been "living though"

Well, I don't mean that the people who moved there in 1849 are
