    Sex of the Computer???

    Determining the Sex of a Computer……..


    A SPANISH Teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike
    English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.

    'House' for instance, is feminine: 'la Casa.'
    'Pencil,' however, is masculine: 'el lapiz.'

    A student asked, 'What gender is 'computer'?'

    Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two
    Groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves

    Whether computer' should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each
    Group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.

    The men's group decided that 'computer' should definitely be of the
    Feminine gender ('la computadora'), because:

    1 No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

    2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers
    Is incomprehensible to everyone else;

    3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for
    Possible later retrieval; and

    4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself
    Spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.


    The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be

    > 1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

    > 2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;
    >
    > 3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time
    > They ARE the problem; and
    >
    > 4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a
    > Little longer, you could have gotten a better model.
    > THE WOMEN WON.

    hehehehe reminds me of that other joke...

    Husband and wife are sitting at their computer, they are setting up an email account and when they need to choose a password, the husband thinks he is funny and clever to choose the password "MYPENIS"

    Wife cannot contain her laughter when computer says PASSWORD REJECTED - NOT LONG ENOUGH




    There are 7 Planes Of Existance:

    7 — Material Plane: The earth, where you are right now.
    6 — Plane of Forces
    5 — Astral Plane
    4 — Mental Plane
    3 — Too mysterious to describe.
    2 — Too mysterious to describe.
    1 — Too mysterious to describe.
