One of the funniest The Tech Guy Calls in of all time

The title says it all.  It's heard to believe that this was for real.

Report from the TWiT Army Mess Hall - Chicken Piccata with Capers and Pine Nuts

I know that the recipe below calls for veal scallops but this works equally well with chicken scallops (this slices of chicken breast)

The Kosher Computer

The Kosher Computer

I don't know if you know this, but you can now purchase Kosher computers! They are made in Israel by a company called DELL-SHALOM. The price is so low, even with the shipping from Israel ! However, before you purchase a kosher computer of your own, you should know that there are some important

changes from the typical non-kosher computer you are used to, such as:

1. The "Start" button has been replaced with a "Let's go! I'm not getting any younger!" button.
2. You hear "Hava Nagila" during startup.
3. The cursor moves from right to left.When Spell-checker finds an error it prompts, "Is this the best you can do?
4. "When you look at erotic images, your computer says, "If your mother knew you did this, she would die."
5. It comes with a "monitor cleaning solution" from Manischewitz that gets rid of all the "schmutz und drek."
6. When running "Scan Disk" it prompts you with a "You want I should fix this?" message.
7. After 20 minutes of no activity, your PC goes "Schloffen."
8. The PC shuts down automatically at sundown on Friday evenings.
9. It comes with two hard drives -- one for fleyshedik (business software) and one for milchedik (games).
10. Instead of getting a "General Protection Fault" error, your PC now gets "Ferklempt."
11. The multimedia player has been renamed to "Nu, so play my music already!"
12. When your PC is working too hard, you occasionally hear a loud "Oy Gevalt!"
13. Computer viruses can now be cured with matzo ball soup.
14. When disconnecting external devices from the PC, you are instructed to "Remove the cable from the PC's tuchus."
15. After your computer dies, you have to dispose of it within 24 hours.
16. But best of all, if you have a kosher computer, you can't get SPAM.

If Air Travel Worked Like HealthCare

If you think this is frustrating for you, it works the same way for the providers.  We have to hire entire teams of people to deal with this nonsense on a daily basis.

Report from the TWiT Army Mess Hall - Chicken and Shrimp Jambalaya

In honor of Mardi Gras make yourself a pot of jambalaya.  Taste the sausage first after cooking it.  If it's very spicy I'd cut the pepper down.

Who are more dangerous, Doctors or Guns?

Think about this:

a. The number of physicians in the US is 700,000.
b. Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year is 120,000.
c. Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171. (US Dept. of Health & Human Services)

Then think about this:

a. The number of gun owners in the US is 80,000,000.
b. The number of accidental gun deaths per year (all age groups) is 1,500.
c. The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .0000188.

Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.

FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.

Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets out of hand. As a public health measure I have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear that the shock could cause people to seek medical attention.
