Man walks in to the waiting-room at his doctors office.
There is his old friend he hasn't seen in a while also waiting for his appointment.
Man: - It's kind of embarrassing to say but I come here because I have a blue ring around my penis.
Friend: - What a coincidence, I am here with a similar problem. I have a red ring around my penis.
Friend goes in to doctors office and comes out after two minutes, smiling.
Friend: - Doctor said I should not worry, just go and take a shower.
Man goes into doctors office and doctor takes a look at his "problem".
Doctor: - Sorry to say but I will have to amputate your penis.
Man: - But that's not what you told my friend with almost the same problem.
Doctor: - You have to understand that there is a clear difference between lipstick and gangrene.

There was a documentary about these plans earlier this year. (Can't remember which channel).

I think I will wait for the next version of this cell phone wich will be nuclear powered.
My personal nuclear power plant in my belt... enough power to supply my cellphone, laptop, car, house, everything.
Once every ten years I'll have to stop at a gas station and refuel with some grams of uranium.

MS really know how to use the word 'service':

I really wish I had more CPUs running so I could dump more crap on SCO.
