    A professor at the University of Mississippi is giving a
    lecture on the supernatural. To get a feel for his
    audience, he asks: "How many people here believe in
    ghostses?" About 90 students raise their hands.

    "Well, that's a good start. Out of those of you who
    believe in ghostses, do any of you think you've ever seen
    a ghostse?" About 40 students raise their hands.

    "That's really good. Has anyone here ever talked to a
    ghostse?" 15 students raise their hands.

    "That's great. Has anyone here ever touched a ghostse?" 3
    students raise their hands.

    "That's fantastic. But let me ask you one question
    further... Have any of you ever made love to a ghostse?"
    One student way in the back raises his hand.

    The professor is astonished and says, "Son, in all the
    years I've been giving this lecture, no one has ever
    claimed to have slept with a ghostse. You've got to come
    up here and tell us about your experience."

    The redneck student replies with a nod and a grin, and
    begins to make his way up to the podium. The professor
    says, "Well, tell us what it's like to have sex with a
    ghostse."

    The student replies, "Ghostse?!? From ah-way back there ah
    thought yuh said "goatse."

    Reports are coming in that atari is making a Minitower 2600 and to our surprise here at the shop someone told us they have a Vic20 running at 3mhz with 4k of ram in a shuttle case.

    Blood amazing! Just when I broke my last paper weight I get a new bigger one. Could someone make me a Beta recorder in a xbox case please?!

    This is a trend that MUST be stopped! You don't see the consequences, I DO! One day Windows 3.0 will be retro enough to be 'cool' and some bastard will resurrect it!

    Stop it now before it's too late :(
