Mouse Ball Inspection...


I don't know how they wrote this with a straight face. This was a real memo sent out by IBM to its employees in all seriousness. It went to all field engineers about a computer peripheral problem. The author of this memo was quite genuine. The engineers rolled on the floor! Especially note the last couple of sentences.

"If a mouse fails to operate or should it perform erratically, it may need a ball replacement. Mouse balls are now available as FRU (Field Replacement Units). Because of the delicate nature of this procedure, a replacement of mouse balls should only be attempted by properly trained personnel. Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls by examining the underside of the mouse. Domestic balls will be larger and harder than foreign balls.

Ball removal procedures differ depending upon the manufacturer of the mouse. Foreign balls can be replaced using the pop off method. Domestic balls are replaced by using the twist off method. Mouse balls are not usually static sensitive. However, excessive handling can result in sudden discharge.

Upon completion of ball replacement, the mouse may be used immediately. It is recommended that each person have a pair of spare balls for maintaining optimum customer satisfaction. Any customer missing his balls should contact the local personnel in charge of removing and replacing these necessary items.

Please keep in mind that a customer without properly working balls is an unhappy customer."

God creates man....


       


                   

                   God said, "Adam, I want you to do something for Me."


                   Adam said,"Gladly, Lord, what do You want me to do?"

                   

                   God said,"Go down into that valley."

                   Adam said, "What's a valley?"


                   God explained it to him.

                   Then God said, "Cross the river."

                   Adam said, "What's a river?"


                   God explained that to him, and then said,
                   "Go over to the hill...."

                   Adam said, "What is a hill?"


                   So, God explained to Adam what a hill was.
                   He told Adam, "On the other side of the

                   hill you will find a cave."

                   Adam said, 'What's a cave?'


                   After God explained,
                   He said, "In the cave you will find a woman."


                   Adam said, "What's a woman?'


                   So God explained that to him, too.
                   Then, God said, 'I want you to reproduce."


                   Adam said, "How do I do that?"  


                   God first said (under His breath), "Geez....."

                   And then,  just like everything else, God explained that to Adam, as well.

                   So, Adam goes down into the valley,
                   across the river, and over the hill,
                   into the cave, and finds the woman.

                   Then, in about five minutes, he was back.


                   God,
                   His patience wearing thin, said angrily,

                   "What is it now?"

                   And Adam said....
