You know you're really broke when...

American Express calls and says: "Leave home without it!"

Your idea of a 7-course meal is taking a deep breath outside a restaurant.

You're formulating a plan to rob the food bank.

You've rolled so many pennies, you've formed a psychic bond with Abe
Lincoln.

Long distance companies don't call you to switch anymore.

You look at your roommate and see a large fried chicken in tennis shoes.

Your rob Peter...and then rob Paul.

You finally clean your house, hoping to find change.

You think of a lottery ticket as an investment.

Your bologna has no first name.

You give blood everyday... just for the orange juice.

Sally Struther's sends you food.

McDonald's supplies you with all your kitchen condiments.

At communion you go back for seconds.




Regards...Gidd

Here's one for the men, one for the women, and one that shows just how
differently people can view the world!

For the men:
A fellow bought a new Mercedes and was out on the interstate for a nice
evening drive.
The top was down, the breeze was blowing through what was left of his hair
and he decided to open her up. As the needle jumped up to 80 mph, he
suddenly saw flashing red and blue lights behind him.

"There's no way they can catch a Mercedes," he thought to himself and opened
her up further.
The needle hit 90, 100.... Then the reality of the situation hit him.
"What in hell am I doing?" he thought and pulled over.

The cop came up to him, took his license without a word and examined it and
the car.
"It's been a long day, this is the end of my shift and it's Friday the 13th.
I don't feel like more paperwork, so if you can give me an excuse for your
driving that I haven't heard before, you can go."

The guy thinks for a second and says, "Last week my wife ran off with a cop.
I was afraid you were trying to give her back!"

"Have a nice weekend," said the officer.

For the women:
There was an elderly man at home, upstairs, dying in bed.

He smelled the aroma of his favorite chocolate chip cookies baking. He
wanted one last cookie before he died. He fell out of bed, crawled to the
landing, rolled down the stairs and crawled into the kitchen where his
wife was busily baking cookies.

With his last remaining strength he crawled to the table and was just
barely able to lift his withered arm to the cookie sheet. As he grasped a
warm, moist chocolate chip cookie, his favorite kind, his wife suddenly
whacked his hand with a spatula.

Gasping for breath, he asked her, "Why did you do that?"

"Those are for the funeral."

Different views:
Ted and John wanted to get away from the countryside and see the world. One
day Ted said to his brother "You know, we could do really well setting up
our bungee-jumping service in Mexico".

John thought this was a great idea, so the two pooled their money and bought
all the equipment they needed.

They traveled to Mexico and began to set up a tower near the center of the
town for good publicity. As they began building the tower, a crowd assembled
nearby. Slowly more and more people gathered to watch them work.

They were excited at having such a big audience that Ted decided to jump and
show his prospective
clients all about bungee jumping.

He bounced at the end of the cord. When he came back up, John noticed that
he had a few cuts
and scratches. As he flew by, John asked if the cord was too long.
Unfortunately, he wasn't able to catch him. So Ted fell again, bounced and
came back up.

This time Ted was seriously bruised and bleeding. Again, John just missed
catching him and asked if the cord was too long.

Ted fell a third time. This time, when he bounced back, he was a complete
mess with a couple of broken bones and was almost unconscious.

Luckily, John finally caught his brother and said "What happened? Was the
cord too long?"

Ted said , "No, the cord was fine, but what in the world is a pinata?

I'm sorry for being a stick in the mud but I get my daily dose of humor from
the jokesrus email list. I get my information concerning
issue/problems/solutions concerning the AR System from the ARS List.

Secondly, some of the issues posted lately could be offensive to our brother
administrators in other countries. Please let's be considerate of all
individuals regardless of their nationality, sex, height, weight, etc.

Third, I get the ARS List in digest format and the usual attachments come
across as garbage. Below is only a small example of a garbage image. I
have removed the other 600 lines as I feel that the first 50 get the point
across.

I couldn't agree more. I've been wanting to post something - but I've been
worried about getting shot down.

1. I rarely find jokes posted to this group funny. Sorry.
2. Please don't post things saying: "Thanks" or "Me too."
Surely these kind of things can be emailed directly to the person?

Honestly,

I think anyone who doesn't want Friday Humor should just delete it as soon
as they see it. As for the attachments, personally I delete EVERYTHING that
comes in attachment form from unknown sources due to possible virus
contamination. And though the ARSList is supposed to have respectable
ARAdmins and Users ;-), I might know two of you and that's simply not enough
for me to trust what I'm getting.

Rule Is: censor yourself, not others. If you don't want it, delete it...

Sorry guys but I agree.

I have considered opting out of the ARSLIST recently because of it.

Please remember Friday afternoon is invariably Monday morning here due to
the time differences + weekend etc. It's a real pain wading through
everything first thing on a Monday.

Regards
Matt

I'm sorry for being a stick in the mud but I get my daily dose of humor
from
the jokesrus email list. I get my information concerning
issue/problems/solutions concerning the AR System from the ARS List.

Secondly, some of the issues posted lately could be offensive to our
brother
administrators in other countries. Please let's be considerate of all
individuals regardless of their nationality, sex, height, weight, etc.

Third, I get the ARS List in digest format and the usual attachments come
across as garbage. Below is only a small example of a garbage image. I
have removed the other 600 lines as I feel that the first 50 get the point
across.

Honestly,

I think anyone who doesn't want Friday Humor should just delete it as soon
as they see it. As for the attachments, personally I delete EVERYTHING that
comes in attachment form from unknown sources due to possible virus
contamination. And though the ARSList is supposed to have respectable
ARAdmins and Users ;-), I might know two of you and that's simply not enough
for me to trust what I'm getting.

Rule Is: censor yourself, not others. If you don't want it, delete it...

I would agree that if you don't like something -- delete it.

Although.

I think the thought of some sort of Utopian email list is silly. There
needs to be an equal balance of relative, informative emails. There
should also at least be some sort of human interaction between the
people to keep the list a little lively don't you think? It may be a
hard balance to find, and the jokes may go a little overboard, but ...
It's the personal help from the list that I really enjoy. I think
everyone could agree that its nice to have a large group of
professionals who are really great people.

David,

I hear your plea. The ARList was not setup to restrict information and as
such should be self-regulated. It is/was perhaps bad taste to force my
comic
"opinions" on the thousands that read the list regularly and count on it as
a
source for more relevant answers. As such I will restrain myself for
continuing
to send out Friday humor.

Personally, I believe that there is not enough laughter in our busy lives
and
a sense of humor in these trying times is sorely hard to find.

Respectfully...Gidd

I'm sorry for being a stick in the mud but I get my daily dose of humor from
the jokesrus email list. I get my information concerning
issue/problems/solutions concerning the AR System from the ARS List.

Secondly, some of the issues posted lately could be offensive to our brother
administrators in other countries. Please let's be considerate of all
individuals regardless of their nationality, sex, height, weight, etc.

Third, I get the ARS List in digest format and the usual attachments come
across as garbage. Below is only a small example of a garbage image. I
have removed the other 600 lines as I feel that the first 50 get the point
across.

I disagree. For the last couple of years, I have been a Remedy and Crystal
Reports consultant. I'm not a programmer. I subscribe to the list because
it is helpful. As a user it is my responsibility to delete what I don't
want to read. I like the humor and opinions it makes some of you seem more
human! If you don't like the opinions or jokes delete them.

Hi Listers,

There is an almost delicious irony to all this. After all we had been attacked 9-11-01 by a group of very intolerent people, who want to not only censor us based upon their narrow view, they do not feel we have a right to exist in a world based upon their narrow view. Rather than petition their governments to cease relations with the west, they prefer to simply cease the west. This is not a political commentary, I am merely proposing the question.... Where does it end?
Where does stiffling the voice, creativity, culture, and joy others for the self esteem of the masses end? This nation was founded on the principle of individuality, taking responsibility for ourselves and our destiny. It was founded on freedom of choice. Choice of how and if we choose to pray or not pray, and most of all... how we choose for ourselves how we wish to live our lives.
I happen to delete many of the posts to the list as they don't pertain to what I may currently be working on. I certainly have no intention of unsubscribing to the list simply because each post does not unlock the mysteries of the AR system. I just delete em. I take responsibility and control of my life by using one of the most powerful tools granted to man in the 21st century... the [DELETE] button.
Where does it end? Does it end with not having to wade thru emails that don't pertain to ARS 4.5.2 or 5.0? Why should I have to wade through the irrelevant emails to catch the information useful only to me? The problem with meeting the needs thru the lowest common denominator is that.... its usually pretty damn low. Sometimes a post having nothing to do with what I am currently working on, may have a use in the future, so I place it in the folder marked ARLIST GOODIES. Its amazing what ends up being valuable.


Best Regards,

perspective from some of the rest of you who may disagree with me.
Sanitizing humor to make it politically correct is, to paraphrase Mark
Twain, like dissecting a frog; in that it can be done, but in the
process, the frog tends to die.

Also, making humor offense-free is like telling a beautiful woman to
dress so that men won't lust after her. Some men will lust regardless
of her attire, some men will try not to, depending on how she's dressed,
and some men are dead. Just kidding, but it illustrates my point.
There isn't a joke that won't offend someone, because some people are
looking to be offended, and choose to take offense at certain things. I
think that such people need to upgrade their outlook on life, rather
than the rest of us jumping through hoops to accommodate it.

The somewhat more valid point has also been raised that this isn't a
humor forum, and that the Email Nazis may cut off legitimate use because
of too much off-topic subject matter.

May I propose a solution that will satisfy most groups? How about if we
simply discipline ourselves to keep the humor to a couple of posts a
week, so that it doesn't turn into Humor Central (lots of web sites for
jokes already), and to keep the jokes clean and relatively tasteful.
We're all grownups and professionals here, so I think we can find a
compromise that works. If this isn't it, that's fine, but let's find
one and move on.

Like Rick I have held back on commenting.

Going way back to when Roman had the list, yes even before Dan, there was an
unwritten "rule" that any humor had to have humor in the subject line. Also
any job listings are supposed to have Job or Career in the subject. Every
so often the list would be mailed a reminder to use this approach, there was
one from Joel not too long ago, usually when this debate pops up. And it
has many times before and will again if you stay on the list long enough.

The reason for the "coding" of the subject is so that we can use email
filters to direct our mail to an appropriate container. For me it is
"Humor" and I read it at my leisure. For others it might be "trash" so they
don't have to deal with it.

What ever you do, do it and lets move on once again to the more important
things in life.

attacked 9-11-01 by a group of very intolerent people, who want to not only
censor us based upon their narrow view, they do not feel we have a right to
exist in a world based upon their narrow view. Rather than petition their
governments to cease relations with the west, they prefer to simply cease
the west. This is not a political commentary, I am merely proposing the
question.... Where does it end?
Where does stiffling the voice, creativity, culture, and joy others
for the self esteem of the masses end? This nation was founded on the
principle of individuality, taking responsibility for ourselves and our
destiny. It was founded on freedom of choice. Choice of how and if we choose
to pray or not pray, and most of all... how we choose for ourselves how we
wish to live our lives.
I happen to delete many of the posts to the list as they don't
pertain to what I may currently be working on. I certainly have no intention
of unsubscribing to the list simply because each post does not unlock the
mysteries of the AR system. I just delete em. I take responsibility and
control of my life by using one of the most powerful tools granted to man in
the 21st century... the [DELETE] button.
Where does it end? Does it end with not having to wade thru emails
that don't pertain to ARS 4.5.2 or 5.0? Why should I have to wade through
the irrelevant emails to catch the information useful only to me? The
problem with meeting the needs thru the lowest common denominator is
that.... its usually pretty damn low. Sometimes a post having nothing to
do with what I am currently working on, may have a use in the future, so I
place it in the folder marked ARLIST GOODIES. Its amazing what ends up being
valuable.

It's got nothing to do with censorship.

It's about wading through irrelevant emails to catch the useful
information. And this group is here to help people - not to
make their life harder.

Plus - there are some companies who monitor emails.
If the number of humour emails doesn't decrease - it could
put my subscription to this list in jeopardy.

I took Thursday & Friday off work - and I had 200 emails
from the ARSList in that time. Not all entirely relevant.

It's rather selfish of people to say, "I'm all right, Jack."

Listers,

Here's my 2 cents worth... :) I've created a "Friday Humor" forum on my
ARSList archive site...
(http://www.mattreinfeldt.com/forums/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=humor) If
you've got something funny that you want to share with the list, feel free
to post it there! You can add attachments (1 per post) and use inline
images (see: using Markup tags in the FAQ)...

Any questions, feel free to shoot them my way!

I've hung back on commenting here, so that I could get a broader
perspective from some of the rest of you who may disagree with me.
Sanitizing humor to make it politically correct is, to paraphrase Mark
Twain, like dissecting a frog; in that it can be done, but in the
process, the frog tends to die.

Also, making humor offense-free is like telling a beautiful woman to
dress so that men won't lust after her. Some men will lust regardless
of her attire, some men will try not to, depending on how she's dressed,
and some men are dead. Just kidding, but it illustrates my point.
There isn't a joke that won't offend someone, because some people are
looking to be offended, and choose to take offense at certain things. I
think that such people need to upgrade their outlook on life, rather
than the rest of us jumping through hoops to accommodate it.

The somewhat more valid point has also been raised that this isn't a
humor forum, and that the Email Nazis may cut off legitimate use because
of too much off-topic subject matter.

May I propose a solution that will satisfy most groups? How about if we
simply discipline ourselves to keep the humor to a couple of posts a
week, so that it doesn't turn into Humor Central (lots of web sites for
jokes already), and to keep the jokes clean and relatively tasteful.
We're all grownups and professionals here, so I think we can find a
compromise that works. If this isn't it, that's fine, but let's find
one and move on.

Hi

I do agree with Rick's views.

While this is a forum to discuss the AR System and all its complexities, related issues, etc., it could also be considered as a small social group of professionals united with a common purpose. And whoever says that a little bit of humor cannot be accommodated at even in a professional environment?

There may have been a cause for concern if more than 10% of Fridays mails were non-ARS related, but personally I do not think it is so. Going by the trend on the past 2 or 3 weeks, we got about 3 or 4 mails out of probably nearly 70 mails that we receive on a Friday that were jokes or non-ARS related. Which keeps this figure relatively low - maybe 5%? Doesn't really look that bad.

I do agree with some of the concerns raised here though. I've lived in a cross cultural environments all my life and have noticed that negative discussions (which includes jokes) on religious matters do tend to raise a few eye-brows. It does tend to hurt the concerned sect of people and personally I wouldn't think that's fair. Unfortunately this list isn't restricted to just the east or the west, but is global.

So if we have to post a few jokes on a Friday which I even welcome, it would be nice to consider, especially in the wake of our current political tide, to refrain from jokes targeting a particular community or a group of people. Maybe another time, another place, these same jokes would be well received. For now I wouldn't think 'little Johnny' jokes or even adult jokes would get a negative reaction here as long as our main perspective to source valuable information on Remedy's ARS is not lost.

Nothing wrong with a little humor on a Friday. Yet it's not worth hurting people over it, sounds a bit selfish to be doing that.

I get this list in digest format. This means that I get 1 email (sometimes

Well, then couldn't you just skip over them? I don't understand why a few
people are making such an issue of this, does it really cause that much
grief? There's all kinds of noise on this list constantly, for example, and
not to make a big deal of it, but there's about 15-20 emails today about
people not being able to read email from Rick Cook. I appreciate Rick's
contributions, and I *can* read his posts, but I certainly don't care about
the current thread, and I've deleted about 20 emails today without reading
them. If I were receiving a digest of the list, I'd simply skip past
anything that I didn't care about.
