  • Uniform ticket scam from the New York State police. Please Help!!?

    I opened this email scam, as I often drive through NY, (and speed as well). I also opened the attachment, (stupid of me, I know), however nothing happened to my computer. Should I be concerened? what could have downloaded in the background and what should I do about it? I researched the scam and leared that it downloads mal-ware and a virius, but I haven't noticed anything. Here's a link to what I opened:

  • Is this fair?

    I am in a Nascar fantasy league with my inlaws. It has a 12 team max to keep it fair. Last year, 2 teams dropped out just before our draft, so 2 other teams took over the dropped teams. Therefore, we had 2 owners that had 2 teams in the league. I think this is unfair, but I went along with it for the year because we all prepared for a 12 team league. Well, draft time is approaching, and I find out that they are not dropping the extra teams. The owners that had 2 teams finished 1st, 3rd, 4th, & 6th. Both teams have never finished higher than 4th in the 12 years we have been doing the league. My questions are, is this fair? And would you still join this league? We have people wanting to join, (although my inlaws want to keep it "in the family" and the people wanting to join are not family). Shouldn't we just drop back to a 10 team league?

  • Help with changing dryer plug!!?

    Ok, here's the deal. I moved into a new house and the outlet for the dryer has four holes, and my dryer plug has 3 prongs. So, I changed the cord, (Red wire, then white in the middle, then the black wire, and green attached to ground on dryer). Now, the dryer won't come on. It worked fine at the old place. I have power to the outlet, plus I am getting power at the plug. Any ideas?

  • E-mail virus??

    I have been getting a lot of "Failure to Deliver" notices in my Yahoo e-mail account the past few days. They are all from names I don't recongize, so of course I don't open them. I also haven't sent any e-mails in awhile, so my question is could someone be using my Yahoo account and ID? Or are these viruses? Of perhaps spam of some kind? Either way, I don't see the harm if I just delete them anyway, just curious I guess.

  • Where'd the other dollar go?

    Here's one that has probabaly been on here before, but here goes anyway.

    3 traveling salesmen all meet up at a hotel wanting a room. The rate for the night is $15 for a room. Since they are all cheap, they decide to split one room between them. Each pays $5 and go to thier room. ($5 + 5 + 5=$15)

    When the manager sees that they are splitting 1 room, he realizes that they quailfied for the hotels group discount which takes $5 off the normal rate. (makeing the room cost $10 a night) He gives the bellhop $5 to take to the three salemen. The bellhop can't decide how to split the $5 evenly between 3 people, so he tells the group that it was only a $3 discount, and gives each man a dollar back, and pockets the remaining $2. Now, lets do the math. Each man paid $5. (5+5+5=15), They each recieved $1 back which means they really only paid $4 a piece, (4+4+4=$12) Now, the bellhop pockets $2, add that to what the men paid and you get $14. The originally paid $15. Where'd the other dollar go?

  • Have a laugh at this...?

    A Blonde was out for a ride one day with her boyfriend, when they came across a huge field on the side of the road. Out in the middle of the field was another blonde woman in a row boat, just rowing away, but going nowhere. The blonde sees this and tells her boyfriend, "Look at that!! She is the reason us blondes get stereo-typed as being stupid!! That makes me sooo mad!!"

    The boyfriend offers to stop so she can go out and tell the woman she is just being stupid. "I would," says the Blonde. "But I can't swim!!"

  • Do Ipods carry Viruses?

    OK, my wife bought a used Ipod NaNo at a garage sale. I hooked it up my computer, and a few nights later, everything was fried!! I lost my processor, motherboard, and I don't know what else. There was an electrical storm the night before I found these problems, so I believe that's what fried my system. But the wife believes the Ipod has something to do with it. And now that I have bought a new computer, she will not allow the Ipod to be hooked up to it. The easy way out I know, is to chuck the Ipod and buy a new one. But I'm a cheap S.O.B. Any thoughts?
