I think Jesus may be returning sooner than we thought!

"Not so much as an affront to God, but the (IMO) subliminal open door to the "Is God real" door."

People have asked this question for thousands of years. I'm sure God isn't threatened, nor should He be. He gave us the brains that create such curiosity in some people.


"We can't even display the Ten Commandments here on Earth."

Huh? They're in my house and church and many other places. Stop exagerrating.


"I wonder how much probing is done on future astronauts to discover a persons religious leanings."

Hopefully, none. The only things important to the health of a space mission is their ability to get the job done.


"I don't think 'they' would allow a bible on board, let alone some surprise from a biblical reading while traveling through space."

If not, it'd be more about payload concerns, rather than religious ones.

There is absolutely no purpose for this response.
I just wanted to say anal-dwelling butt-monkey once today.

Just because scientists understand biology well enough to do stuff like this doesn't mean they're right about evolution. </sarcasm>

That was the funniest exchange I have ever read on any forum anywhere at any time.

I am now going to move my keyboard from and monitor from the floor where I pulled it down after falling off the chair.

Thanks for the broken rib fellas and thanks for the great read!

Someone sent me this via email...

Mouse Balls:
I don't know how they wrote this with a straight face. This was a real memo sent out by a computer company (IBM) to its employees in all seriousness. It went to all field engineers about a computer peripheral problem. The author of this memo was quite genuine. The engineers rolled on the floor! Especially note the last couple of sentences.

Re: Replacement of Mouse Balls.

If a mouse fails to operate or should it perform erratically, it may need a ball replacement.
Mouse balls are now available as FRU (Field Replacement Units).
Because of the delicate nature of this procedure, replacement of mouse balls should only be attempted by properly trained personnel.

Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls by examining the underside of the mouse.
Domestic balls will be larger and harder than foreign balls.
Ball removal procedures differ depending upon the manufacturer of the mouse.
Foreign balls can be replaced using the pop off method.
Domestic balls are replaced by using the twist off method.
Mouse balls are not usually static sensitive.
However, excessive handling can result in sudden discharge.
Upon completion of ball replacement, the mouse may be used immediately.

It is recommended that each person have a pair of spare balls for maintaining optimum customer satisfaction. Any customer missing his balls should contact the local personnel in charge of removing and replacing these necessary items.
Please keep in mind that a customer without properly working balls is an unhappy customer

Us mice may be very sexually potent, but no way we're going near the monkey cage to get a little tail. A mouse has to have standards. :)
