1 in 10 Think 'HTML' Is a Sex Disease
TRACY STAEDTER, DIscovery News wrote:About 1 in 10 people surveyed by coupon website Vouchercloud thought that HTML was a sexually transmitted disease. HyperText Markup Language, aka HTML, is the language used to develop websites. No condom required.

Vouchercloud conducted the survey because it wanted to know how much its customers knew. They asked 2,392 men and women around 18 years of age and older a range of questions having to do with technology. Not everyone got the questions right.

Here are a couple of other mistakes they made, according to the LA Times:

• 27 percent identified “gigabyte” as an insect commonly found in South America. A gigabyte is a measurement unit for the storage capacity of an electronic device.

• 42 percent said they believed a “motherboard” was “the deck of a cruise ship.” A motherboard is usually a circuit board that holds many of the key components of a computer.

• 23 percent thought an “MP3″ was a “Star Wars” robot. It is actually an audio file.

Love Arnold! The guy has made millions and been a governor and he just doesn't take himself too seriously.

Lol. I was at the San Diego zoo when two Galápagos tortoises went at it. The women loved it, the men were like what ever, and the kids were laughing their @$$es off.

As a recording artist I couldn't imagine how hard it must have been to record her singing! Sounds like the music producer just went crazy slicing up her vocal parts to hide how bad it is! :shock:

Need help cutting open an ATM machine safe (omaha)
Craigslist wrote:I have a mini bank 1500 ATM with an unknown amount of cash inside. My buddies and I can not get the safe open. Never had trouble opening these before so it must be stuck. Need someone with a plasma cutter or thermite to open the box. Will split any money inside the machine 50/50. This is a one time offer for now but may be needed in the future. Completely legit.

Texas teen gives police officer parking ticket
A Texas teenager recently decided to stick it to the man when she saw a police car illegally parked in her neighborhood — and wound up with a reward for keeping a cop in line.

Annie James, a 14-year-old from Baytown, Tex., issued a handwritten $10 parking ticket to Officer Tommy King, whose patrol car was parked in a fire zone in the Bay Oaks apartment complex.

"He was parked on the side of the building and it was a fire lane all the way around," Annie told KPRC-TV.

"I came to my car and I saw a piece of paper on my windshield," King said. "I took it off and opened it and read it and I started laughing immediately."

The "ticket" informed King he needed to pay $10 to the manager of the apartment complex.

"I thought it was neat that she made that for $10 but not to herself," King said.

Not only did the officer pay the fine — he gave Annie a $40 gift card to Toys R Us.

"Turns out we're both from Alabama and end up in Texas," King said. "It's interesting ... I made a friend. A lesson would be not to be shy or afraid of law enforcement. We're here to help."

The kid got caught, so obviously this is a "ha ha, funny" story. I listened to the incident on my scanner app and he dumped a gun during a foot pursuit and possibly had another one. If things went differently this could very well have been a shooting.

Yes, it could have ended horribly, but I think for many like myself, it brought me back to the times we learned to drive a stick.

When I was 16 I worked for the Lt Gov of Nebraska, and at his ranch outside Yutan. Everyone went back to Omaha and I was left with the company truck, which, had a stick. I had Never driven one before, and with no phone around, had to make my way back, learning along the way...

This Guy Used Twitter to Trick a Town Into Thinking He Was Their Mayor
The man created a profile with the following bio: “I’m James Billington, the current Mayor of Stafford. Delighted to be representing the town of Stafford & surrounding areas. Views are my own.” He began tweeting on March 8, and soon enough, convinced residents and local businesses that he was the mayor.
