Since this is a 'old man'/Dad thing thought I'd see if anyone has any good Dad's Jokes. I need some new material. Not that there's anything wrong with the old stuff, just need to try a few new ones out. Found these ones and had a good chuckle - some real classics in there.

Reduce your carbon (and gastrointestinal) emissions.

When my old man was asked what he would like to be called, he would always reply "Call me anything but late for dinner".

 

That ABC "Dad's joke page" was pretty funny, although I can't believe they didn't have these classics...

Me "Dad, i'm bored!"

Dad, "And is your first name Floor or your last name Walk?"

or

Me "Dad, I'm Hungry (or Thirsty)!"

Dad "Pleased to meet you Hungry"

Some of his lame jokes included...

Can a matchbox? No, but a tincan.

Two cockroaches had a fight, it ended in a drawer.

And finally, when I was a bit older and looking for work he would say "Did you see that job in the local rag, (long pause as I wait in anticipation) they're looking for someone to pick the fly sh*t out of pepper.

 

I guess the funniest thing is, I still use these jokes today, Hee Hee!

Just too be atotal nerd: While I like fiest his books are somewhat mainstream these days (did I mention Broken has met him and he signed a book for her) Steven Erikson is by far the best I have ever read and I have read a *** of alot of books.

   His books are full of violence magic main characters being killed off repeatedly and each of the 7 or so books so far are 800 odd pages long.

      Gardens of the moon is the first one, 2 pages in and 50,000 soldiers are killed in an epic battle its awesome.

Sorry to all non readers

Thanks Fish.

 

Filler books imo are essential as not only does it tie and explain things thoroughly but it gives you a bit of a breather and anticipation for what is about to happen.

 

So does this one tackle the Dasati origins and the Kelewan issue...?? (Don't have to fully explain it just a simple yes or no would suffice.)

 Homer Simpson wrote:

It gets there on the Dsarti issue with heavy hints as to the origins of Bec... As to the kelewan side read it just for the whole Miranda & the assembly story & if you read it for one thing do so for the last 5 pages... say no more

 

Thanks Baygon will give his stuff a go. Agreed with you on fiest being more mainstream than some of the other Fantasy around, but I love his ability to create and grow charecters... You got to love Jimmy The Hand & got to hate the moment in the books when he dies.. Oh god im so sad.. (tries to behave all manlly and fails miserably)

"Just too be atotal nerd: While I like fiest his books are somewhat mainstream these days (did I mention Broken has met him and he signed a book for her) "

 

I remember him comming to Carousel at 2003 and he was signing books at Angus & Robertsons. However I was at work thus I was unable to see him. 

 

But I was able to get my Anniversary Revision of Magician and Hardcover of Talon of the Silver Hawk signed.

Ok internet nerd time.....

On advice of peeps on this here forum have contacted my ISP have now upped the connection to 1500Kb/s with 15,000mb of downloads!

Might as well be in ancient latin to me can someone tell me is that any good and what does it meen for the stability and flow of online gaming?

---

Live In The Moment Or You'll Never Be Free

First things first 1500kb/s allows you to host gears and is the standard that most people play online with, so yeah its good.

I'm going ADSL2 cause I have a cable connection which slows down as more people use it( its shared)

Magician is a masterpiece of a novel and I've got the special edition one too, I still read all his books but have just found them a little predictable and especially short. and yes i cried when Jimmy died.

David Gemmel is the Ultimate in action books,

Robert Jordan started well but drags his books out too much

George R R Martin is great but too slow to release books( 4years each)

and we should start a book club sitting around a fire in our slippers with a pipe in our teeth,
