Here's another two-word "joke"

Pop Music

If frozen water is iced water, what's frozen ink?

Kinrik, a Mule isn't an Ass. An Ass is an Ass. A Mule is the sterile hybrid offspring of a male donkey and a female horse. Living in the country, by a "Mule" farm, it teaches you not to call a Mule an Ass

Yes, I know it was a joke... I just had to be an a..

Actually, I believe the original joke had the word "donkey" instead of mule, but I didn't want to type it all out....too lazy

So a Mule is a Horse's Ass?

Two word sporting joke "American Football"

And a three word motorsport one "Michael Schumacher, sportsman".

Kinrik, you must be having a slow day.

wom...I think he's quite a decent bloke, actually....it's Alan Jones who's the wanker...

My personal faves were Piquet and Berger...and Doohan [not Gardner]...

Alan is his Father's son, and he stopped way too early!
Herman is a brilliant racer, up there with the top 10, rather like Senna minus charisma!
But he's a greedy little prat with (IMHO) all the charm and grace of a bastard pig.
Always liked Gerald and Alesi, the last of the real "Ferrari" GP drivers.
I figure that when Mika and Jeannot retired that the last of the good men were gone.
Todt and Brawn are on my all time #1 hit list, 'The Quisling' and 'Captain Pugwash' >
My 'heros', Juan Manuel, Jimmy Clark, Ronnie the Super Swede, Pedro Rodriguez and Seppi Siffer (they come as a matched set!),Black Jack, Niki the Super Rat, Keke (another wasted talent), Le Professeur, Gerald the Burgler, the 'Immortal Gilles', and Mika the Flying Finn.
Stand out personality, Alex Zanardi.
On two wheels, Mike the Bike, Angel Nieto Senior, Greg Hansford, Joey Dunlop, Mick (of course!), and WG back when he was riding.
Valentino is a nice kid, so is Capparossi, Colin Edwards (50% Australian!), the 2 Troys, Corser and Bayliss, all good guys.
And so is Akyri Yanagawa.
WRC people, Kankkunen, King Carlos, Tommi, Marku Alen, the Panizzi Boys, Hollywood and Delecour all rate with me.
I've met the Andrettis and really like them, same goes for Emmo and a whole bunch of CART drivers.
Dislike the entire V8 Supercar grid except for 'The Kid'.
Not favoured (in no special order!) Kenny Roberts Snr. and Jnr., Mad Max, Colin MacRae and Wee Richard Burns, Jackie Stewart, John Surtees, Moffatt, and the entire 'EffWun' lot except for Webber.
Detested .... Ecclestone, Mosely, Tony George and Tony Cochrane!
Hmmmm......I think I have too much time on my hands right now!

Sad thing is that my 'job' really requires impartiality...being the bloke that lets the C of C know, and therefore the stewards what has transgressed and who has done what to whom...things which have the potential to wipe a person's season/career...


There's a few people who I have met, and liked as 'people' but who also drive cars/bikes...some have a great sense of humour, others have a charisma lobotomy.
The funny ones include Berger and Tricky Dickie.
Mansell, on the other hand is the ONLY person alive who can make F1 sound utterly boring just by talking about it...

Ready for one more two word joke?

Is Windows a virus?

No, Windows is not a virus.

Here's what viruses do:

They replicate quickly. Okay, Windows does that.

Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so. Well...Okay, Windows does that too.

Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk. Okay, Windows does that, too.

Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems... Alright... Windows does that, too.

Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow and the user will buy new hardware...Yup, that's with Windows, too.


Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences:

Viruses are well supported by their authors, will run on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient, and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature.

Guess that means Windows is *not* a virus!!!
