Netcraft Jokes About SCO's Virus Fears

That's really funny commentary on the whole issue. I wonder how long before McBride sues the author?

panties tonight, please, please, tella me thisa be true!"
Carmella smiles coyly and answers, "Yes Giorgio, I wear no panties
tonight."
Giorgio gasps and says "Thanka God ... I thought I had a CRACK in my new

World's Longest Sig to Follow
If you're bored, read this funny joke:
Giorgio is in this country for about 6 months. He walks to work 20 blocks every day and passes a shoe store. Each day he stops and looks in the window and admires a certain pair of Bocceli leather shoes. He wants those shoes so much it's all he can think about. After about 2 months he saves the $300 for the shoes and purchases them. Every Friday night the Italian community gets together at a dance in the church basement, so Giorgio seizes the opportunity to wear his new Bocceli leather shoes to the dance. He asks Sophia to dance, and as they dance he asks her, "Sophia, do you wear red panties tonight?" Sophia, startled, says, "Yes, Giorgio, I do wear red panties tonight, but how do you know?" Giorgio replies,"I see the reflection in my new $300 Bocceli leather shoes. How do you like them?" Next he asks Rosa to dance, and after a few minutes he says to her, "Rosa, do you wear white panties tonight?" Rosa answers, "Yes, Giorgio, I do, but how do you know that?" He answers, "I see the reflection in my new $300 Bocceli leather shoes. How do you like them?" Now as the evening is almost over and the last song is being played,Giorgio asks Carmella to dance. Midway through the dance his face turns red. He says, "Carmella, stilla my heart

(Yes, I'm half-joking, and no I'm not flaming. Utah folks are nice overall, but it's true that polygamy was practiced there up to 100 years ago mainly to populate Utah as quickly as possible from the small band of initial settlers.
Believe it or not, but there are communities here in Utah that still practice polygamy.
Those who've been to Utah know the proportion of white blond-haired blue-eyed people bearing the same last name there is quite staggering. Sweden looks cosmopolitan compared to Utah).
Things are getting better as far as diversity goes, and along with more diversity, the quality and types of food gets better as well not to mention the arts, music and science. But yeah, I'll tell you, moving from Texas to Utah was a bit of a shock. In fact, one of my friends did an epilepsy fellowship at the University here and was not so sure about it from a cultural standpoint. One of her first statements getting off the plane was "damn, look at all the white people".

Heartily concur.
Oh, and "twitter may be weird"?? hahahaha!!! i love it!!
I was raised Mormon, and the party line was always that they needed to do the whole polygamy thing in order to churn out as many babies as humanly possible. But from a purely biological standpoint, it just doesn't make sense. Supposing there is an eligible young woman, it would be more procreatively efficient to marry her off to an energetic twenty-something guy than a fifty or sixty year old geezer with an already overlarge harem (along with being more enjoyable for said eligible young woman and said energetic twenty-something guy).
The other claim, wholly untrue, is that there weren't enough young men to go around. The ratio of men to women was approximately equal throughout Utah's polygamy era. But due to the artificial shortage created by the "monopolistic practices" of certain favored individuals, many young men had to go on missions just to find and convert eligible young women. Thus, the "Mormons kidnapped my daughter" plot became very popular in the dime novels of the era.
That was a bit of a digression. The point is, claiming that you can get more babies out of x women by giving them all to a single man makes about as much sense as claiming that you can make a baby in one month by putting nine women on the job.
You want the truthiness? You can't handle the truthiness!
No wonder, they have a rather large population with a very coherent DNA to study there

THE RUSH FOR THE ROCK

Burnaby, B.C. -- It has a nice ring: Newfoundland and Laboratory. No, it's not a misprint. The Rest Of Canada -- which in this case includes Quebec -- likes to think of the easternmost province as the have-not of the 10. But multidisciplinary fieldwork based on human genetics may pave the way to a high-tech gold mine in Newfoundland.
At least one geneticist, Dr. William Davidson, thinks so. Last summer, Willie Davidson moved from being a professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at Memorial University to become Dean of Science at Simon Fraser University. In his cross-Canada relocation, at least one thing remained intact: His passion for the right of Newfoundlanders to control a natural resource of vast potential value -- their own genes. [/QUOTE]
