Listen, I have a great idea for a new newsgroup:

	alt.unavailable

Everybody could post there the most interesting unavailable articles
they have seen. Of course, the articles posted in this group would be
unavailable to everybody.
Well, are we gonna vote or what?

White and fluffy, warm and deep,
Wish I had another sheep.
Cloven hooves and beady eyes,
I'd like to be between their thighs.
Tripped out on testosterone,
I'll find a sheep to call my own,
They pant and gasp and buck in fear,
When I ram it in their rear.
I woo them and then tie them down,
Then check to see who is around,
My blood runs hot at this juncture,
Fresh sheep anus, ripe for puncture,
To some this poem may seem quite rude,
I wrote it for our good friend Jude,
'Cause during work, when we are bored,
We talk about the sheep we've scored.

		- S. R. Prozak

ya know at one time I thought this thread was kinda cool,

Is this the best way to show freshmen (err...freshpeople,
if you're totally into that PC stuff) what netnews and the

  Q: How do you delete something

  A: Try "fdisk"



  (My father once asked this one)
  Q: When you delete a file, do you have to type in the file you want to delete?

  A: No, the system request that the del.exe has executed, automatically reads
     your mind to get the file name you want to delete.



  Q: Where's the any key (again this is  a pretty old one, but I thought I
     would stick it in)

  A: Any key as in *any* key.

	-click (turn on power)

	-SMACK! (I smack the terminal)

I hope this question does not offend anyone racially:

Euclid walks into a store with three quarters, two dimes, and a
nickel. The dimensions of the store are 9 m by 12 m by 3.7 m. The
owner was twice Euclid's present age seven years ago. At the same time
Euclid is walking between two congruent parallel aisles, Train A is
leaving New York at a constant velocity of 60 km/h. The conductor
shakes hands with every third passenger while one of the passengers
pulls a marble out of a bag containing 1 red, 2 blue, and 3 black
marbles. If the number of handshakes is directly proportional to the
arctan of the time (in seconds) that it takes Pipe A to fill the
Smithsonian, and a six-sided die is rolled once for every number less
than one hundred that is divisible by six, then what is the
probability that the chicken actually crossed the road?

This is not, repeat, NOT a homework problem, but I need the answer by
Thursday.
