IJMC - The New Arrival

Ok, so I've probably sent out a variation on this one...but the punch 
line's woefully appropriate for this week...anyway, doing research over 
the internet can be a dangerous thing. Unlike a library that might close, 
the internet doesn't shut off...so I've now been up about five hours 
later than I'd planned looking up one topic. However, I'd now like to 
claim I probably know more about ADSL connections than any single person 
who is not directly involved in the care and maintainence of such...give 
me another day, and I will know more than most of those people too. I'm 
tired of BellSouth not fixing my problem, so my goal is to learn what it 
is, then _tell_ them how to fix it. And maybe give me a job while they're 
at it...depends if I like them when I'm done. :)                    -dave



A new arrival in Hell was brought before the devil. The devil told his
demon to put the man to work on a rock pile with a 20-pound sledge
hammer in 95 degree heat with 95% humidity.  At the end of the day, the 
devil went to see how the man was doing, only to find him smiling and 
singing as he pounded rocks.

The man explained that the heat and hard labor were very similar to
those on his beloved farm back in Georgia.

The devil told his demon to turn up the heat to 120 degrees, with 100%
humidity.  At the end of the next  day, the devil again checked on the
new man, and found him still happy to be sweating and straining. The
man explained that it felt like the old days, when he had to clean out 
his silo in the middle of August on his beloved farm back in Georgia.

At that, the devil told his demon to lower the temperature for this
man to -20 degrees with a 40 mph wind.  At the end of the next day, the 
devil was confident that he would find the man miserable.

But, the man was instead singing louder than ever, twirling the sledge
hammer like a baton.  When the devil asked him why, he was so happy,
the man answered, "Cold day in hell, the Falcons must have gotten to
the Super Bowl!!!"
