Winders ‘98

It has come to our attention that a few copies of the Alabama edition of Windows 98 may have accidentally been shipped outside Alabama. If you have one of the Alabama editions you may need some help understanding the commands.

The Alabama edition may be recognized by looking at the opening screen. It reads WINDERS 98 with a background picture of the General Lee superimposed on a Confederate flag. It is shipped with a Daisy Duke screen saver.

Also note:
the Recycle Bin is labeled Outhouse
My Computer is called This Infernal Contraption
Dialup Networking is called Good Ol’ Boys
Control Panel is known as the Dern Dashboard
Hard Drive is referred to as 4 Wheel Drive
floppies are them little ol’ plactic disc thangs.

Other features:

Instead of a error message you get a winder covered with a garbage bag and duct tape.

Driving Etiquette for Rednecks

# Dim your headlights for approaching vehicles, even if the gun is loaded and the deer is in sight.
# When approaching a four-way stop, the vehicle with the largest tires always has the right of way.
# Never tow another car using pantyhose and duct tape.
# When sending your wife down the road with a gas can, it is impolite to ask her to bring back beer.
# Never relieve yourself from a moving vehicle, especially when driving.
# Do not remove the seats from the car so that all your kids can fit in.
# Do not lay rubber while traveling in a funeral procession.
