Seth - a few last tips...glad you got a laugh out of 'em.. :-)

Things I've learned from my children:

There is no such thing as child-proofing your house

If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them
with roller blades, they can ignite

A 4 year olds voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded
restaurant

If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan the motor is not
strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing pound puppy underwear and a superman cape

It is strong enough however to spread paint on all four walls
of a 20 by 20 foot room

Baseballs make marks on ceilings

You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on

When using the ceiling fan as a bat you have to throw the
ball up a few times before you get a hit

A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.

The glass in windows (even double pane) doesn't stop a
baseball hit by a ceiling fan

When you hear the toilet flush and the words Uh-oh, it's
already too late

Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it

A six year old can start a fire with a flint rock even though
a 36 year old man says they can only do it in the movies

A magnifying glass can start a fire even on an overcast day

If you use a waterbed as home plate while wearing baseball
shoes it does not leak - it explodes

A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq
foot house 4 inches deep

Legos will pass through the digestive tract of a four year old

Duplos will not

Play Dough and Microwave should never be used in the same sentence

Super glue is forever

McGyver can teach us many things we don't want to know

Ditto Tarzan

No matter how much Jello you put in a swimming pool you still
can't walk on water

Pool filters do not like Jello

VCR's do not eject PB&J sandwiches even though TV commercials
show they do

Garbage bags do not make good parachutes

Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving

You probably do not want to know what that odor is

Always look in the oven before you turn it on

Plastic toys do not like ovens

The fire department in San Diego has at least a 5 minute
response time

The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earth
worms dizzy

It will however make cats dizzy

Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy

Quiet does not necessarily mean don't worry

A good sense of humor will get you through most problems in life
(unfortunately, mostly in retrospect)

Seth, thanks for the baby funny stuff. My wife is in the 35th week now just 5? weeks for our first! I 'll show her what happens if we ever get to number 4, she 'll get a kick out of it for sure!

The following is from a news release form OzEmail, an Australian company. They seem to be doing similar things with FTEL. Any comments on it? Do their internet telephony products work? The stock seems to be fairly valued at first glance. I ll appreciate any comments.

My humble comment on Saddam. There is no doubt that he is an idiot and brutal man. By continuing these brutal sanctions 7 (!!!) years after the war we are only making him stronger in the eyes of his own people (sanctions are responsible for the misery, not him). What really matters is that he is living well, it's the Iraqi people who have been suffering for so long after the war is over. I think the Iraqi people deserve a break from 7 years of economic misery (yes of course they deserve another leader too but tell that to Bush who did not take him out). Please focus on the suffering of millions and not one man. I could go on but I better stop. I must warn you guys I watch X-Files every Sunday<gg> Maybe I should have posted this on the Ftel off topic thread!

Ozemail news release segment:

Mr. Howard added, ''The third quarter produced some important events for the long-term growth strategy of OzEmail. In July OzEmail Interline announced the addition of Concentric Networks as its U.S. network affiliate, followed by the announcement of MagicTel as the network affiliate in Hong Kong. Combined with our existing OzEmail Interline business in Australasia and Europe, I believe we are well positioned to continue the global expansion of OzEmail Interline's Internet telephony services. I am also pleased to announce that Mike Neville has joined us as CEO of OzEmail Interline, having most recently served in the international division of Cable and Wireless Communications in the UK. We also continued to build our Internet access business, improving our network infrastructure and adding several new content features. While competition in this market is heavy, we believe our robust network technology and market leading customer penetration positions us to continue our success delivering Internet connectivity solutions to both the consumer and corporate markets.''
