From Mercedes (the woman, not the car company):
Investing in your retirement
If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00. With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left. But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, you would have had $214.00. Based on the above, current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.
It’s called the 401-Keg Plan!
From Winston:
Those of us in or close to the technology business have learned much about the inner workings of computers over the years. But as the pace of technological development continues to quicken, it has become almost impossible to stay on top of how things really work. Finally, you can see at a glance, on one screen, how it all comes together to achieve the goal of making our lives simpler.
And from CripHumor:
S-1019 (by Brian Codagnone at www.corbettfeatures.com) is a sci-fi strip that takes place in the far future aboard the starship S-1019. In this episode, one of the non-human crew members is typing as another one, Keon, an energy cloud, is watching over his shoulder.
