  1. Imagine there are no suckers (as you refer to them) on this planet and all of humanity rejects all new innovations... How would a manufacturer test their new product in a real world scenario? It is the very same suckers or the guinea pigs that help the new innovation to be perfected for the smart users! In some instances been a sucker is an honour! ???? Dread the thought of no suckers existed amongst the early Homo sapiens! ????
  2. With new OS's, it is purely a matter of personal choice. I try a new version as soon as it is available, but with caution. With Windows 11, first I tried as a trial run by partitioning my HDD and having a dual-boot system. After a couple of months, I decided to upgrade and did. So far, I am very happy with the performance and the ONLY issue I have is that the Touch Pad is not working due to a driver incompatibility. So far, I can live with it! ... and this on a HP ProBook 4530s which is over 10 years old (RAM 8GB) So, in the end it is each individuals choice IMHO

  9. A man wakes up one morning and finds a gorilla on his roof. So he looks up in the yellow pages and sure enough, TV there's an advert for "Gorilla Catchers" He calls the number, and the gorilla catcher, Santa Singh, says he will be over in 30 minutes. Santa arrives within 30 minutes and gets out of his van. He's got a LADDER, a BASEBALL BAT, a SHOTGUN and a HUGE DOG. "What are you going to do", the house owner asks. Santa said, "I'm going to put this LADDER up against the roof, and then I'm going to go up there and knock the gorilla off the roof with this BASEBALL BAT. When the gorilla falls off, the DOG is trained to grab the gorilla's testicles and squeeze them mercilessly. The gorilla will then be subdued enough for me to put him in the cage in the back of the van." Santa then hands a shotgun to the house owner. "What's the shotgun for?" asks the house owner. Santa replies, "If the gorilla knocks ME off the roof, SHOOT THE DOG IMMEDIATELY."!!!
  10. A divine healer in church called out – “Anyone with special needs who wants to be prayed for, come forward to the front”. With that, John, got in line and when it was his turn the Pastor asked, "John, what do you want me to pray for you?" John replied, "Pastor, I need you to pray for help with my hearing." The Pastor put one finger of one hand on John's ear placed his other hand on top of John's head, and then prayed and prayed and the whole congregation joined in with much enthusiasm. After a few minutes, the Pastor removed his hands, stood back and asked: "John, how is your hearing now?" John answered, "I don't know. My hearing is actually next Thursday at the London High Court."
  11. A farmer stopped by a hardware store and bought a bucket and a gallon of paint. Then he stopped by the feed store and picked up a couple of chickens and a goose. However, struggling outside the store, he wondered how to carry all his purchases home. While he was scratching his head, he was approached by a lady who told him she was lost. She asked, 'Can you tell me how to get to 1603 Mockingbird Lane?' The farmer said, 'Well, as a matter of fact, my farm is very close to that house. I would walk you there, but I can't carry this lot.' The lady suggested, 'Why don't you put the can of paint in the bucket, carry the bucket in one hand, put a chicken under each arm, and carry the goose in your other hand?' 'Thank you very much,' he said and proceeded to walk the lady home. On the way, he said, 'Let's take my short cut and go down this alley. We'll be there in no time.' The lady looked him over cautiously and said, 'I am a lonely widow without a husband to protect me. How do I know that when we get in the alley you won't hold me up against the wall, pull up my skirt, and have your way with me?' The farmer said, 'Holy smokes, lady! I'm carrying a bucket, a gallon of paint, two chickens, and a goose. How in the world could I possibly hold you up against the wall and do that?' The lady replied, 'Set the goose down, cover him with the bucket, put the paint on top of the bucket, and I'll hold the chickens.'
