I was having trouble with my computer.
So I called Harold, the computer guy, to come over.
Harold clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.
He gave me a bill for a minimum service call.

As he was walking away, I called after him, “So, what was wrong?”
He replied, “It was an ID ten T error.”
I didn’t want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, “An ID ten T Error? What’s that In case I need to fix it again?”

Harold grinned…. “Haven’t you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?”

“No,” I replied.

“Write it down,” he said, “and I think you’ll figure it out.”

So I wrote it down.
I D 1 0 T

I used to like Harold..

Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with those
expensive double-pane energy-efficient kind.
Yesterday, I got a call from the contractor who installed them. He was complaining that the windows had been installed a whole year ago and I hadn’t paid for them yet.
Now just because I’m blonde doesn’t mean that I,
am automatically stupid. So I told him just exactly what his fast-talking sales guy had told ME last year…namely, that in just ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves!
‘Helllooooo’!!! (I told him). ‘It’s been a year’!
There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up.
He hasn’t called back, probably too embarrassed about forgetting the
guarantee they made me. Bet he won’t underestimate my intelligence again!!!

Blonde’s Free Windows
Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with those expensive double pane energy efficient kinds, in a beautiful yellow shade similar to my hair. But this week, I got a call from the contractor who installed them. He was complaining that the work had been completed a whole year ago and I hadn’t paid for them.

Hellloooo? Now just because I’m blonde doesn’t mean that I am automatically stupid. So, I told him just what his fast talking sales guy had told ME last year… namely, that in ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves!

“Helllooooo? It’s been a year,” I told him!

There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up….

He didn’t call back. Guess I won that stupid argument.

RAISING BOYS:
a. For those with no children - this is totally hysterical! b. For those who already have children past this age, this is hilarious. c. For those who have children this age, this is not funny. d. For those who have children nearing this age, this is a warning. e. For those who have not yet had children, this is birth control.
the Facts:
1. A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house
4 inches deep.
2. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
3. A 3-year old Boy’s voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.
4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20 x 20 ft. room.
5. You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6. The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn’t stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words “uh oh”, it’s already too late.
8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.
9. A six-year old Boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a
36-year old Man says they can only do it in the movies.
10. Certain Lego’s will pass through the digestive tract of a
4 year old boy.
11. Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
12. Super glue is forever.
13. No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can’t walk on water.
14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15. VCR’s do not eject “PB & J” sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.
16. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
17. Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
18. You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens.
20. The fire department in Austin, TX has a 5-minute response time.
21. The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.
22. It will, however, make cats dizzy.
23. Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.
one thing i did forget to mention worms create a stange and unpleasant odor in the dryer

djv22389 asked:


A pane off of one of my double pane, argon gas filled windows is broken. At first glance, one would assume that it was done intentionally, except the screen over the window did not look tampered with. The temps in my area went from 30 to 60 in overnight, is it possible for my window to burst? I’m almost hoping it is because if not, that means someone tried to break into my basement. Any help woujld be appreciated!
