Oklahoma's Edition of Windows 98
Microspoof requested that we inform our readers of the following:
It has come to our attention that a few copies of the Oklahoma Edition of
Windows 98 May have accidentally been shipped outside Oklahoma. If you
have received the Oklahoma Edition in error, but still wish to use it, you
may need some help understanding the special commands and terminology.
The Oklahoma Edition can be recognized by the opening screen. It reads
WINDERS 98, with a background picture of a prairie dog superimposed on an
Okla. Flag. It is shipped with a Daisy Duke screen saver.
* The Recycle Bin is labeled "Outhouse"
* My Computer is called "This Infernal Contraption"
* Dialup Networking is called "Good Ol' boys"
* Control Panel is known as "The Durn Dashboard"
* Hard Drive is referred to as "4-Wheel Drive"
* Floppies are referred to as "Them little ole' plastic
disk thangs"
* Instead of an error message, you get a window covered
with a garbage bag and duct tape.
Other commands and terms differ as follows:
*OK = 'ats aw-right
*cancel = hail no
*reset = aw shoot
*yes = shore
*no = naaaah
*find = hunt-fer it
*go to = over yonder
*back = back yonder
*help = hep me out here
*stop = ternit off
*start = crank it up
*settings = sittins
*programs = stuff 'at does stuff
*documents = stuff I done done
Also note that "Winders 98" does not recognize capital letters or
punctuation marks. If you received a copy of the Oklahoma Edition, you
may return it to Microsoft for a copy of the standard version. We regret
any inconvenience this may have caused you.

Three Guys and a Genie
Three guys, a Canadian, an Iraqi and an Israeli are out walking
together
one
day. They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it. "I will
give
you
each one wish, that's three wishes total," says the Genie.
The Canadian says, "I am a farmer, my dad was a farmer, and my son
will
also
farm. I want the land to be forever fertile in Canada." With a
blink
of
the
Genie's eye, 'FOOM' the land in Canada was forever made fertile for
farming.
The Iraqi was amazed, so he said; "I want a wall around Iraq, so
that
no
infidels and Jews can come into our precious state." Again, with a
blink of
the Genie's eye, 'POOF' there was a huge wall around Iraq.
Izzy Goldberg, the Israeli asks, "I'm very curious. Please tell me
more
about this wall."
The Genie explains, "Well, it's about 150 feet high, 50 feet thick
and
completely surrounds the country; nothing can get in or out."
Izzy says, "Fill it up with water."

MEN TALK BACK
Why is a Laundromat a really bad place to find a wife?
Because a woman who can't even afford a washing machine will never be
able
to support you.
Why do women have smaller feet than men?
So they can stand closer to the kitchen sink.
Why do men pass gas more than women?
Because women don't stop talking long enough to build up pressure.
If your dog is barking at the back door and your wife is yelling at the
front door, who do you let in first?
The dog of course...at least he'll shut up after you let him in.
I married Miss Right. I just didn't know her first name was Always.
I haven't spoken to my wife for 18 months.... I don't like to interrupt
her.
Marriage is a 3 ring circus: Engagement ring, wedding ring, and
suffe-ring.
The last fight was my fault. My wife asked, "What's on the TV?" I said,
"Dust!"
In the beginning, God created earth and rested. Then God created man and
rested. Then God created woman.
Since then, neither God nor man has rested.
A beggar walked up to a well dressed woman shopping on Rodeo drive and
said
"I haven't eaten anything in four days."
She looked at him and said, "I wish I had your willpower."
Do you know the punishment for bigamy?
Two mothers-in-law.
Young Son: Is it true, Dad, I heard that in some parts of Africa a man
doesn't know his wife until he marries her?
Dad: That happens in every country, son.
The most effective way to remember your wife's birthday is to forget it
once.
First guy (proudly): "My wife's an angel!"
Second guy: "You're lucky, mine's still alive."
Just think, if it weren't for marriage, men would go through life
thinking
they had no faults at all.
If you want your wife to listen and pay undivided attention to every
word
you say, talk in your sleep.
Then there was a man who said, "I never knew what real happiness was
until I
got married; and then it was too late."
A little boy asked his father, "Daddy, how much does it cost to get
married?"
And the father replied, "I don't know son, I'm still paying."
The bumper sticker read: "I lost 250 pounds in one day I divorced
her."
Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street
with a
bald head and a beer gut, and still think they are beautiful.

Eventually, the Rottweiler lets go.
A man calls his mother in Florida. "Mom, how are you?"
"Not too good," says the mother. "I've been very weak."
The son says, "Why are you so weak?"
She says, "Because I haven't eaten in 38 days."
He exclaims,"That's terrible. Why haven't you eaten in 38 days?"
The mother answers,"Because I didn't want my mouth to be filled with
food if you should call."
Jewish view on when life begins: There's a big controversy on when life
begins. In Jewish tradition the fetus is not considered viable until
after it graduates from medical school.
A
Jewish boy comes home from school and tells his mother he's been given a

play the part of the Jewish husband." The mother scowls and says,"Go
back and tell the teacher you want a speaking part."

For the Newly Observant
A newly observant (ba'al tshuvah) house painter was meeting with his Rebbe
during the Days of Awe, and wondering how he could correct his previous
misdeeds.
"Rebbe, I've done awful things as a painter. I've done sloppy jobs, used
inferior quality paints and lied about it, I cut my paints with
turpentine, and cut corners. How can I make up for these evil deeds that
I've committed in a previous life?"
The Rebbe thought for a while, looked at the painter and then
pronounced:
"Repaint, Repaint, and thin no more."

The Rabbi and the Tax Man
A Tax Official has come to a rural synagogue for an
inspection. The
rabbi is accompanying him. "So rabbi, tell me,
please, after you
have
distributed all your unleavened bread, what do you
do with the
crumbs?"
"Why, we gather them carefully and send them to
the city and then
they
make bread of them again and send it to us." "Ah.
So what about
candles
after they are burnt? What do you do with the
ends?" "We send them
to
the city as well, and they make new candles from
them and send them back
to
us." "And what about circumcision? What do you do
with those
leftover
pieces?" The rabbi, wearily, replies, "We send
them to the city as
well." "To the city!? And what do they send to
you?" "Today they
have
sent you to us."
