My golf club installed a new bell on one of the holes. After a week the clapper fell out and they couldn't find it. But they could find the rope so they put that back inside. 🤔 2 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Popular Post Sidecar Racer Posted August 1 RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted August 1 A burglar breaks into a home and holds the husband and wife hostage... At gunpoint, he forces the two to sit in chairs facing back-to-back, then ties them to the chairs. The burglar slowly and methodically begins stealing from the house... When the burglar has taken everything of value, he gets ready to leave. The homeowners are still bound to their chairs, when suddenly, the man yells at the burglar, "Please untie her, please, let her go!" The thief responds with, "No, I’m not untying either of you so that the authorities get notified as late as possible... " "Don’t worry, your neighbors will soon wonder why your lights are still on throughout the night... " "And check in on you long before you succumb to dehydration." The man yet again pleads, "Please, just untie her, I’ll do anything!" The burglar once again explains his reasoning... "I need to get away with this crime, I’m sorry, I can’t leave anything up to chance." The man shuffles his chair towards the burglar, and in a state of mania, exclaims, "I’m begging you man, just let her go, she won’t call the cops, I promise!" The burglar, still unwilling to budge, did find it quite touching how much his hostage cared about his wife... "Wow," he said "You must really love your wife to beg me to untie her so desperately." "No," the man replied, in a state of frenzy... "My wife will be home in 15 minutes!" 1 24 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CameronL Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 A woman was cooking breakfast for herself and her husband one day, when he came into the kitchen. "THOSE EGGS NEED MORE MILK BEFORE YOU START SCRAMBLING THEM," he said in a very loud voice. She put some more milk in. "LOOK AT THE PAN! IT'S MUCH TOO HOT! THE EGGS WILL BURN!" She turned the heat down and poured the mixture in. "GET THE TOAST ON OR IT WON'T BE READY IN TIME!" She put the bread in the toaster. "STIR THE EGGS, QUICKLY!" She gave the eggs a stir. "HAVE YOU BREWED THE TEA?" Finally, she could take no more. "Yes, I HAVE brewed the tea. Why do you keep shouting at me? I know how to make scrambled eggs and toast." He replied: "I know how to drive, but you shout at me every time we're in the car together." 2 1 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold AndrueC Posted August 2 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 2 (edited) 5 minutes ago, JZ said: I have two printers. My laser printer is hardwired into my LAN and if I don't use the manufacturer's print spooler it can refuse to print. Sometimes my laptop can't even find it on the network. My inkjet printer is connected via WIFI and it springs to life whenever required either for printing or scanning. I never had to install any special drivers for it. Clearly the second printer has a serious fault as it is not behaving the way a printer should. 😁 Edited August 2 by AndrueC 1 1 1 9 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameronL Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 I started in the IT industry in 1986. Actually getting ink onto paper was a problem then, and it still is now. Quite recently we had a printer tech come in to service one of our printers. He wasn't very impressed when I asked him if he could disconnect the fear sensor. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
