Weiler (1909 - 2002) The intermediate stage between socialism and capitalism is alcoholism. --- Norman Brenner ___________________________________________________ >From Dasha I know I shouldnt have done this, but I am 83 years old and I was in the McDonalds drive-through this morning and the young lady behind me leaned on her horn and started mouthing something because I was taking too long to place my order. So when I got to the first window I paid for her order along with my own. The cashier must have told her what I'd done because as we moved up she leaned out her window and waved to me and mouthed "Thank you.", obviously embarrassed that I had repaid her rudeness with kindness. When I got to the second window I showed them both receipts and took her food too. Now she has to go back to the end of the queue and start all over again, Don't blow your horn at old people, they have been around a long time. ___________________________________________________ "Dear Milkman, I've just had a baby, please leave another one." Please leave an extra pint of paralysed milk." Please don't leave any more milk.

Sorry not to have paid your bill before, but my wife had a baby and I've been carrying it around in my pocket for weeks." Sorry about yesterdays note. I didn't mean one egg and a dozen pints, but the other way round." When you leave my milk knock on my bedroom window and wake me because I want you to give me a hand to turn the mattress. Please knock. My TV's broken down and I missed last nights Coronation Street. If you saw it, will you tell me what happened." My daughter says she wants a milkshake. Do you do it before you deliver or do I have to shake the bottle." Please send me a form for cheap milk, for I have a baby two months old and did not know about it until a neighbour told me." Milk is needed for the baby. Father is unable to supply it." >From now on please leave two pints every other day and one pint on the days in between, except Wednesdays and Saturdays when I don't want any milk." My back door is open. Please put milk in 'fridge, get money out of cup in drawer and leave change on kitchen table in pence, because we want to play bingo tonight." Please leave no milk today. When I say today, I mean tomorrow, for I wrote this note yesterday." When you leave the milk please put the coal on the boiler, let dog out and put newspaper inside the screen door. PS. Don't leave any milk. No milk. Please do not leave milk at No. 14 either as he is dead until further notice." ___________________________________________________ >Reported by Rock An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Brian Clemente, 28, Aurora, Illinois, USA Illinois man guilty of battering infant 28 year old Brian Clemente of the 700 block of North Ave in Aurora has been found guilty by a judge of the offenses of aggravated battery to a child causing bodily harm; a Class X felony and aggravated domestic battery causing bodily harm; a Class 2 felony.

But those places sell the complete cartridge. What about filling the used cartridge yourself? Do you do that? Do these places take your used cartridges and refill them for you? Chuck Dear Chuck Buying the chip separately is a gamble. I think Samsung has gotten wise to that. Reputable toner dealers sell you toner with a properly zeroed chip already installed. Personally, I have not had much luck with separate chips, and now just buy complete toner, with the chip already zeroed and intalled.. I am still using https://atlanticinkjet.com/ Have FUN!
