I think I know around 90% of the topics for my math exam next week. Unfortunately, percentages aren't one of them...
Speaking Of Weiner Of course, there those who really believe that if we got rid of all the leftists in this country, we'd be alright...
I bought a memory stick for my wife. She hasn't forgotten to make dinner on time once since the first beating.
I've just come home from my girlfriend's house fixing her computer. She played with my memory stick, until I had to RAM my Hard Drive into her Software, so when the the Hardware finished installing, I clicked onto her browser and sent spam to her e-Mail until her Inbox was full!
A man was having really bad problems with his wife. They had been married for 10 years and she had obviously got bored. Well while playing golf that weekend with his doctor friend, he couldnât help mentioning it. No problem said his clever friend, I have an idea. I will make an appointment next week for your annual checkup. After his checkup, the doctor called the wife into his office alone. He said, "Your husband is suffering from a very severe stress disorder. If you don't follow my instructions carefully, your husband will surely die. "Each morning, fix him a healthy breakfast. Be pleasant at all times. For lunch make him a nutritious meal. For dinner prepare an especially nice meal for him. "Don't burden him with chores. Don't discuss your problems with him; it will only make his stress worse. Do not nag him. Most importantly, make love to him regularly. "If you can do this for the next 10 months to a year, I think your husband will regain his health completely." On the way home, the husband asked his wife, "What did the doctor say?" "He said you're going to die, so you had better make out your will quick and leave everything to me" she replied.
