How to Start Each Day With a Positive Outlook

Found this on the internet and thought it was funny.

1. Open a new file in your PC.
2. Name it “John Kerry.”
3. Send it to the trash.
4. Empty the trash.
5. Your PC will ask you, “Do you really want to get rid of John Kerry?”
6. Answer calmly, “yes,” and press the mouse button firmly.
7. Feel better?…

Rangers, fans scuffle in Oakland

As many of you know there was a fight between the fans and a Texas Ranger in Oakland at the baseball game last night. Frank Francisco hoisted a folding chair into the stands, striking a woman and breaking her nose. He was arrested on a charge of aggravated battery. As a fan of the Texas Rangers this conduct saddens me. I think he should be suspended. The bullpen is very close to the fans. So virbal abuse is probably very high. This is a problem at Oakland and in Finway. It is sad. Because it was really a shocker of a game. It is sad that this has happened. A Statement from Tom Hicks. (Link includes video)

Scanners

I have a job interview today at 8 pm. I hope I get this job. I am also looking at getting a new scanner. My HP Scanjet 4400c light has gone out. I am thinking about getting the HP Scanjet 4600. Does anyone out there have this scanner? Is it a good one?
