Larry King admits he has never used internet

The 72-year-old technologically challenged Larry King (pictured) admits he has never used the internet.

CNN television interviewer Larry King, famous for questioning celebrities and newsmakers, admits he's never asked a question of an Internet search engine.

"Ive never done it, never gone searching," said King, who reads viewers' e-mails on air.

"The wife loves it. I wouldn't love it. What do you punch little buttons and things?"

How does that old saying go … you can’t teach an old dog new … oh, never nind.

Punch little buttons indeed.

Incredible motorcycle with tiny rear wheel

When was the last time you saw a powerful racing motorcycle with a rear wheel that looked like it came from a child’s toy tricycle?

I guess that’s one way to cut out a little extra weight. Looks like they will try anything to win a race!

But wait a minute -- this picture is actually a hoax. It is just another faked picture that was entered in a Worth1000 photo contest.

There are a lot of incredible, almost convincing photos entered in various Worth1000 photo contests.

She had a prescription

A lady went into a drug store and asked for some cyanide.

The pharmacist asked, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?"

The lady then explained she needed it to poison her husband.

The pharmacist's eyes got big and he said, "I can't give you cyanide
to kill your husband! That's against the law! I'll lose my license,
they'll throw both of us in jail and all kinds of bad things will
happen!

The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her
husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife.

The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, "Well now, you
didn't tell me you had a prescription

The new lawmakers are in Washington

Some of the freshmen lawmakers seem to be a curious lot. Many of them were recruited to run because they were moderate or could be perceived as moderates to voters in conservative states.

Discontent with Bush and Iraq made their election a relatively easy task -- a task that could be just as easily reversed in two years.

The following are comments posted about the article here titled, Freshmen lawmakers begin orientation.

The comments mock orientation classes by Democratic leaders in congress.

Obfuscation 101 by Senator Clinton. How not to answer unscripted, spontaneous questions and new variations of how to say "I do not recall".

Ethics in Real Estate 101 by Senator Reid. How to make millions of dollars on property you transfer to shell corporations and get away with it. Prerequisite for course is completing Revising Campaign Disclosure and Ethics Forms 101.

Public Relations 101 by Senator Schumer. How to get maximum television exposure, no matter the subject and your knowledge or experience. Guest lecture by Al Gore and Senator Kerry.

Sexual Harassment 101 by Senators Kennedy and Dodd. How to do a waitress sandwich and get away with it. How to eliminate pesky campaign workers who've outworn their welcome. Special Field trip to Chappaquiddick and Oldsmobile driving course.

While the preceding comments were intended to be humorous, there is a lot of truth to the words.

Back to the linked article in the Seattle Post Intelligencer:

A former NFL quarterback, a seven-fingered farmer and a '70's rocker who posed half-naked on an old album cover began learning Monday how to be members of Congress.

Hall, a New York Democrat, ran an unorthodox campaign featuring a singing duet on Comedy Central and a number of concert rallies with famous friends such as Bonnie Raitt.

They are a curious lot indeed. But can any of them get re-elected?

His generation had drug problems

His generation just might have been lucky.

They had drug problems when they were young, but they turned out all right.

They were drug to church most every week.

They were drug to family reunions no matter the weather.

They were drug to school every weekday.

They were drug to their room for “time out” when they disobeyed their parents.

It would be nice if that’s the only drug problems young people have today!

No refills

A distraught senior citizen phoned her doctor's office. "Is it true that the medication you prescribed has to be taken for the rest of my life?"

"Yes, I'm afraid so," the doctor told her.

There was a moment of silence before the senior lady replied, "I'm wondering, then, just how serious is my condition because this prescription is marked 'NO REFILLS'."

Habitat for Humanity Hustlers

Habitat for Humanity is helping the underprivileged into home ownership. However, freewheeling lenders are taking advantage of the financially naïve.

Habitat families are able to buy their homes for much less than full market value.

A decade of rising prices has made them wealthier--on paper.

At the same time, many are strapped for cash and unsophisticated about credit. For freewheeling brokers and lenders eager for refinancing business, the combination couldn't be better.

Naïve Habitat borrowers have targets on their backs and hustling lenders are taking advantage.
