    Default Computer virus resurrected?

    I'm pretty sure this is a fairly old one -- at least a year past, but today I received two messages entitled "Your buddy sent you a post card", sender was simply "Post Card". Either this thing is making the rounds again or someone has created a new, improved version -- or it's just been lurking in cyberspace until it could land in my mailbox.

    In case it has in some way been resurrected, please consider this an alert.
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog thinks I am.

    Is anybody retarded enough to open these things?
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    I hope not! But then, you never know. I guess somebody must do, as they keep cropping up.

    That's like my wife and the "I Love You" virus...

    Hey Thorn. I forgot to do that thing we talked about, but I am going to. Sorry for the delay. Not that you are on the edge of your seat, but I didn't want you to think forgot or found someone better. I mean, my choices are from here, so you do the odds on that.

    LOL! I await with bated breath ... It's okay. I spent part of the weekend ripping down wallpaper and sanding a window frame to bare wood. Such fun.

    RE: Darla and Thorn

    You do realise this type of talk causes some people - filthy disgusting people with minds in the filthiest most disgusting gutters - to think about all sorts, don't you?

    First of all we have talk of secret affairs and then Thorn, who should be thoroughly ashamed of herself, relaying rip-roaring revelations of a weekend spent rubbing wood to her partner in crime (and Lord knows what else) Darla.

    I am certainly not some kind of middle-of-the-road, straight-laced prude, far from it. I once saw nearly a whole 5 minutes of Desperate Housewives, i'll have you know. However, this is a family board where vulnerable children could be corrupted by exposure to your dirty sex talk. I hate to say it but, please, for the love of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, won't you think of the children?

    Yours faithfully,

    A. Disgusted Reader.

    Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
    Proving tax cuts work!

    Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
    The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.

    girls just do not understand the joy of tearing stuff down.

    I remember once we wanted to build a new deck, so my dad and brothers and I took a chainsaw, sledgehammers, and axes to it. THEN we started a huge fire and burnt it all up. While all that was burning.. we kinda got into a frenzy a tore down a swingset that my youngest brother (who was like 5 at the time) always played on. We burned that too. Then we chopped down and mashed up our childhood tree house and burned that as well.

    Things got a little out of hand . . .
