Hi All,
my 9 year old Laura loves playing Sims, the famous computer game. You
build houses, found a family, earn money, spend money, make babies etc...This
weekend she told me, very excited: "Dad, Dad, I'm rich! Look, I know
how to double up the balance of my bank account. I press ALT+CTRL+something,
then comma then SHIFT ( or something similar ), and...look look...double
the money on the account! I do it again, look!" "Well, but then
you're cheating..." I said. "Yes, but I don't need to wait for
hours to start building a small house, but look now I have my castle with
swimming pool and sauna!" Great, simply great, they teach my daughter
how to cheat the system. Booooohoooooo, I have created a monster...
Have an excellent day
Alex
Old one, but I simply love it:
Three old ladies were sitting side by side in their retirement home reminiscing.
The first lady recalled shopping at the green grocers and demonstrated
with her hands, the length and thickness of a cucumber she could buy for
a penny. The second old lady nodded, adding that onions used to be much
bigger and cheaper also, and demonstrated the size of two big onions she
could buy for a penny a piece. The third old lady remarked, "I can't
hear a word you're saying, but I remember the guy you're talking about."
