Jewish Kosher Computer Made in Israel by DELLSHALOM It is selling at such a good price !! If you or a friend are considering a Kosher computer, you should know that there are some important ! upgrades and changes from the typical computer you are used to, such as: The cursor moves from right to left. Microsoft Office now includes, "A little byte of this, and a little byte of that." It comes with two hard drives-one for: fleyshedik (meat) business software and one for milchedik (dairy) games. Instead of getting a "General Protection Fault" error, my PC now gets "Ferklempt". The Chanukah screen savers include "Flying Dreidels". The PC also shuts down automatically at sundown on Friday evenings. The "Start" button has been replaced wi th the "Let's Go!! I'm Not Getting Any Younger!" button. When disconnecting external devices from the back of my PC, you are instructed to "Remove the cable from the PC's tuchus." Internet Explorer has a spinning "Star of David" in the upper right corner. You will hear "Hava Nagila" during startup. When running "ScanDisk," it prompts with a "You want I should fix this?" message. When your PC is working too hard, I occasionally hear a loud "Oy!!!" Year 2000" issues were replaced by "Year 5760-5761" issues. After 20 minutes of no activity, your PC would go "Schloffen." Computer viruses would now be cured with chicken soup. There is a "monitor cleaning solution" from Manisc! hewitz that advertises that it gets rid of the "schmutz und drek" on your monitor. After your computer dies, you MUST dispose of it within 24 hours. And of course the BEST Feature of all: Kosher Compters DONT GET SPAM! ================================ haqihana, Funny political humor is fine IMO. I can laugh at the liberals just as easily as the conservatives. The problems are repeats and posts that are just cheap shots devoid of humor, example of the latter, most of Mr. Dickson's posts last week.

All I want is all, biased, political humor to stop. If posters want it to stop, they'll stop. If they are comfortable with it, as many (most?) here are, it will keep going. Personally, I like much of the political humor here, from both sides. A country that can't laugh at itself is a sad country. (And where on earth would Leno, Letterman, et. al. be if THEY were banned from any political humor?) If posters, regardless of affiliation, cannot achieve that one small goal, then I will have to go elsewhere for my SI humor. Bye. OJ: Q: Why was the baby strawberry crying? A: Because his mother was in a jam. Q: What did the grape say when the elephant sat on it? A: Not much, it just let out a little wine. Q: Why does a cow have a bell around its neck? A: Because its horns don't work.
