Downloaded Files

Have you ever noticed that most downloaded files go straight to your desktop? The reason that they're sent there is so you'll have an easier time finding them later on. If the file goes directly to the desktop, you don't have to rummage around in your other folders to find the new download. Now, most programs do have a choice included in the download process that allows you to change the place they go to, so if you pay close attention to that, you'll be able to select another location.

Personally, I don't want all this stuff on my desktop, so I created a folder called - you guessed it - Downloads. That way I can keep the clutter off my desktop, and know exactly where to find them.

First numbered highways

On this day in 1925, the first nationwide highway numbering system was instituted by the joint board of state and federal highway officials appointed by the secretary of agriculture. In order to minimize confusion caused by the array of multiform state-appointed highway signs, the board created the shield-shaped highway number markers that have become a comforting sight to lost travelers in times since. Later, interstate highway numbering would be improved by colored signs and the odd-even demarcation that distinguishes between north-south and east-west travel respectively. As America got its kicks on Route 66, it did so under the aegis of the trusty shield.

Find a Need and Fill it! by Sandy Karn

There is alot of what I call garbage energy floating around  the universe these days especially on the news and what people  are saying about how bad things are economically.

It is true, the world is going to have a chance to grow up now  and stop their own negative thinking, entitlment mentality  that wreaks with "the world owes me a living".

This is an exceptionally good time to take a moment and PAUSE  and think about what people need.  Then think about your own  personal talents and how you can contribute to those needs.

The old saying, "Find a Need and Fill It" still applies today  as much as ever and if you will PAUSE each day long enough to  think about just that (aside from all the things you think you  must get done to survive) with your own IMAGINATION, it could  move your life and your business ahead.  There in lies your  Optimal Results.

I truly wish you the very best on this one because there is a  lot of opportunity here today for those who refuse to listen  to all the monkey chatter and are willing to get on with their  life with some effort and concentration on what is important  and most of all STAY OUT OF FEAR!  FEAR will only stop your  progress.

Wishing You the Very Best!

We had our ten-year-old daughter late in life, long after our two boys were born. She is the joy of my husband's life, but he is self-conscious about being an older father. He likes to jokingly tell people that by the time she graduates from high school, he'll be in a nursing home.

One day she asked, "Mom, you know how Dad always says he'll be in a home when I graduate?"

I nodded, expecting some sad question about mortality.

She continued, "Can I have the car then?"

Two  guys were discussing popular family trends on sex, marriage, and  values.
Stu said, "I didn't  sleep with my wife before we got  married, did  you?

"Leroy replied, "I'm  not sure, what was her maiden  name?"

Riddle

A man went into a bank to cash a check. When handing over the money, the cashier, gave him by mistake dollars for cents and cents for dollars. He pocketed the money without examining it, and spent a nickel on his way home. He then found that he possessed exactly twice the amount of the check he handed the cashier. He had no money in his pocket before he went to the bank. What was the exact amount of that check?

Do you know the answer? Scroll down to find the solution.
