Why I love AOL

Headline from AOL: "Horse Wins 143rd Running of Kentucky Derby""

Um, what else would win the Kentucky Derby?

[House Atreides]

I WATCHED THE RACE. It was clear that the horse beat the jockey by a head!

I once did a wallpaper border around the perimeter of my recording studio with bunches of those. Shiny Side out.

They made rainbows when you flashed light on them,.

The Question Is:

When Are YOU Going To Make A Donation To Keep The Lights On Here At FR?

Stop dude, you’re killing me

[boycott]

What’s AOL? I am still using Prodigy.

[scrabblehack]

Well, at least they can write the headline in advance.

[reg45]

The advantage of that headline is that it can be written months or even years in advance.

[upchuck]

Best comment, right there. Bump.

“I have about 300 AOL floppy disks and CD’s in the original packaging”

I use disks in the garden for decoration and to keep birds away. Glue them back to back shiny side out and drill a hole about 1/4 inch from the outer edge.

I had a chain of a dozen of them hanging vertically from a 18’ bamboo pole set in the ground at a 45 degree angle.

Perhaps it was a ‘transgendered’ donkey or cow.

[Nifster]

Who knew?

[Trillian]

A really fast glazed ham.

[poconopundit]

Oh, didn’t you hear? Donkeys and Horses are transgendering these days... That’s why Yahoo couldn’t pin it down.

[poconopundit]

Hey, great minds think alike. See my comment 34 20 minutes later.

My friend’s father strung them up on trees .. either to attract or repel birds ;)

[A strike]

Fauxcohontas could win, hands down.

Shiny objects also repel flies and mosquitoes. Some people hang a water bottle with a piece of aluminum foil in it, But I imagine those old AOL discs might do the job as well!

[Vendome]

If I was there I would be hitting on the beautiful women in those pretty hats and I’d win too.
