It's started!
A man came home from work, sat down in his favorite chair, turned
on the TV, and said to his wife, "Quick, bring me a beer before it
starts."
She looked a little puzzled, but brought him a beer.
When he finished it, he said, "Quick, bring me another beer. It's
gonna start."
This time she looked a little angry, but brought him a beer.
When it was gone, he said, "Quick, another beer before it starts."
"That's it!" She blows her top! "You bastard! You waltz in here,
flop your fat ass down, don't even say hello to me and then expect me to
run around like your slave. Don't you realize that I cook and clean
and wash and iron all day long?"

Fun in the office
A devious hide-and-seek game
The Mind Molester is an instrument of creative electronic harassment. It is an electronic device that can drive your victims a little crazy trying to figure out what it is and where it's located. Your friends/enemies will become obsessed, awaiting the next chirp trying to determine its location, completely disrupting their normal activities.Just connect this device to a 9-volt battery and plant it in an appropriate location. It produces a one-second electronic chirp about once every 3 minutes. Due to the chirp's duration, frequency, and sound characteristics, it's a very difficult, time-consuming, frustrating and maddening task to locate the unit. And even if they find it, they'll have no idea what it is. The number of effective locations to plant the Mind Molester is limited only by your imagination. Of course, this device is for use on deserving subjects only.
Phone Thief nabbed
A New York stock clerk who had his camera phone swiped from his car this month says he was able to peer into the life of the gadget's new owner. The thief evidently didn't realize the copious photos and videos he was taking with the hot phone were accessible through a web account.

The Worlds funniest practical joke
Ok, so here is the worlds funniest practical joke as voted by me.
All you need is a post it note (preferably yellow) a black ball point pen, a phone book and someone who is not mean and big.
Take the post it note.
Remove from the pad. (it should just pull away from the adhesive strip, if not you may have a defective post it note pad).
Take the black ball point pen and write this on the post it note:
While you were out, a Mr Lyon called for you. Please call him back on 478 3489 asap.
The funny part is that before writing the note, you will have looked up the local zoo's phone number and substituted the 478 3489 in the message above for the local zoo's phone number.
If you are confused as to how this joke is funny, try calling your local zoo and asking to speak to Mr Lyon.
If you made the mistake of trying this on someone who is mean and big, you could divert their attention as they are pummelling you by making lion roar noises (ie Rrrrrrraarrr!!). That should calm them down a bit.
