There was an atheist couple who had a daughter. The couple never told their daughter anything about the Lord. One night, when the little girl was five years old, the parents fought with each other and the dad shot the mom, right in front of the child. Then, the dad shot himself.
The little girl watched it all. She was sent to a foster home. The foster mother was a Christian and took the child to church. On the first day of Sunday School, the foster mother told the teacher that the girl had never heard of Jesus, and to have patience with her.
The teacher held up a picture of Jesus and said, "Does anyone know who this is?" The little girl said, "I do. That's the man who was holding me the night my parents died."
a little stroll in the forest
A priest and a small boy go walking in the woods. The day goes by and it begins to get dark. The boy looks up and says, "Father... I'm getting scared. It is nearly dark, and I miss my mommy."
The priest admits he also is a little frightened. The boy asks "Do you miss your mommy, too?" The Priest responds, "No. However, it is getting dark and I have to walk out of here alone."
Most automotive oils are not suitable for use in motorcycle engines. A premium quality 4Tmotorcycle specific oil such as Castrol or Mobil 1 typically has higher levels of anti-wear chemistry such as zinc and phosphorus than some automotive oils do, which are critical in protecting high RPM and high load and engines from wear and especially cam lifters and follower wear.

You Might Be A Yuppie Biker...
-if you can't figure out why the battery on your new bike won't stay charged, your trailer has more miles on it than your bike, or your leathers still have creases.
-if your tattoos wash off, you need a biker lingo book, people you consider bikers scare you, have never kick started a bike, don't ride in the rain, can't find your oil filter, or think any motorcycle is too loud.
-if you really believe that there are bikes that come customized from the factory, buy bikes as investments, or refer to your bike as your 'toy'.
-if it's not fun to ride unless someone sees you, wear a full-face helmet, your pony-tail comes off with your cap, wear earplugs, a Harley shirt with a collar, or think the models in the catalogs are what bikers are suppose to look like.
-if you're a HOG member and think you're an outlaw, you leave your garage door open so people can see your bike, doubled the weight of your bike with bolt-on chrome, or think a wrench is a bitchy woman.
-if you stop 30 miles from Sturgis to unload your bike so you can ride in, or buy your bike and start calling everyone 'bro', and the last time you went to the Harley dealer you came home with golf balls and a toilet seat.

Woman gets Ph.D. in English
Joan is about thirty-five, the daughter of a friend. After kicking a drug dependency about ten years ago, she pursued an acedemic career in English at various colleges in New York, including Monroe Community, St. John Fisher, Brockport State, and the University at Buffalo.
Five years ago I looked at her papers and realized that she couldn't spell, punctuate, formulate ideas, or write in any meaningful sense. She assured me that all was in draft form and vastly improved final versions would be ready in a month. But I'm not the one who needs convincing.
Cut to the present (02/10/2012) and the Ph.D is closer. I meet her at a coffeeshop, order a triple espresso and we chat. From an enormous book bag she produces folders which she shares. Her writing has not progressed much, except that now she has the sense to pay someone to write her doctoral thesis.
And then she'll get a job teaching. It's not that anyone who matters is fooled; a little feigned anger and indignation can dispell notions that she lacks Ph.D abilities.
In a sense, not much we learn in school is applicable or required to do our adult jobs in the workforce. In fact, most jobs can be mastered in fifteen minutes. If your parents were jackasses, you'll probably be a jackass, too.

Why write valid HTML code?
At the bottom of this page are links to W3C validation tests for W3C HTML5 compliance. The higher the level of conformity, the more uniformly the pages will render among the various browsers. It also helps by catching errors, which I correct. There are other reasons to validate html, including the fact that search engine spiders often can't effectively parse or categorize sites with bad html. Most webmasters write sloppy code and hope that the browser will automatically correct the errors. This is only partially true. This page has cross-browser uniformity, having been tested in
chrome,
safari,
firefox and
internet explorer.
It adheres to standard code and validates. The pages generally load quicker without the proprietary browser specific code. But varying degrees of W3C browser compliance affects minor cosmetics such as rounded corners and drop shadows.
is probably a good choice.
Do you have a philosophy?
I worship the power of another deity; the power of another dimension. Now, you're not going to read about this dimension in a book, magazine, or newspaper because it doesn't exist anywhere except in my own mind. Through ceremonies and rituals I have witnesssed firsthand the awesome and vibratory power of color. I experience it as "alive" and constantly shaping our experience. I believe that this saturated energy is the basis of all creation.
This is not an occult science. This is not one of those "crazy" systems of divination and astrology. That's stuff's hooey and you've got have a screw loose to go in for that sort of thing. My beliefs are fairly commonplace and simple to understand.
Humankind is simply materialized color operating on the forty-ninth vibration. Heck, you would make that conclusion walking down the street or going to the store.
Is global warming real?
Global warming may have caused the violent tornados in the late spring of 2011. Some suspect it's the work of Superman flying at great speed in concentric circles. But (like me) Superman is good; he stands for Truth, Justice and the American Way. He wouldn't do anything evil.
Bizarro, an evil supervillian and his twin, would. Wikipedia says that Bizarro is a fictional character. His exploits with the Justice League of America prove that he exists.
How did you learn HTML?
In the mid-1990's, I procrastinated for months in learning HTML, a mark-up language originally designed for non-technical acedemics to create web pages. I have no formal training.
While playing chess on FICS, I met JohnnyRio, who said he had worked in an illegal auto chop shop, stripping down stolen cars for parts. While serving thirty-seven months in an Oregon State Prison for Grand Theft Auto (GTA), or soon thereafter, he created a Bobby Fischer fan web site. It was a simple web page and had a little table with an "x" marked for months that he had Chess Life magazine issues. Thrilling, isn't it?
A convicted felon had a web page. I had none and had recently been cleared of all charges. Something about they never found the head. Whatever. After this lucky break, I resolved to learn HTML. Maintaining this web site has necessitated updating those rusty HTML coding skills, first to XHTML and then to HTML5. That taught me to be more thoughtful and careful in producing good code.
What's it like being webmaster?
It's difficult because I don't actually own a computer. I plan to buy a nice one in late 2012, finances permitting. For now this means a slog of some four miles, twice a week. I walk through snow and cold in winter, the rains of April, and the searing heat of summer. Arriving at the Henrietta Public Library, I use a free computer. Bus service is sporatic.
The hardest thing is supervising, training and selecting staff. Sometimes you've got to be cruel to be kind.
