Cheryl asked me to put this one in:
Give a Man a fish . . . you feed him for a day.
Teach him to fish and you get rid of him most weekends!

Never give the wife the silent Treatment!!!
A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment.
Suddenly, the man realised that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight. Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 AM." He left it where he knew she would find it. 
The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed. The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."

This one was told to me by my old Pastor:
. . . and on the Seventh Day God rested.
On the Eighth Day he sold the lot to the Japanese.

How did this guy come to believe that he is an insect and his real home is the Moon?
Everyone kept referring to him as the "lunar tick".

He was looking for the space bar!

Then fattest Aliens in the Universe come from the Hamburger Galaxy. Because the Intergalatic Macca's always ask "Would you like fries with that."

Q: How many astronomers does it take to change a light bulb?
1) Ten! One to change the bulb, and nine to argue how their own bulb gives better colour.
2) None! Astronomers aren't afraid of the dark.
3)
See the FAQs.
"What sort of light bulb should I buy?"
"Should I start with a candle?"
"Where should I buy my light bulb?"
"Where NOT to buy a light bulb."
"What type of light bulb to avoid?"
"What will I be able to see with my bulb?"
"How do I deal with telescope-pollution?"
"Can I buy a bulb for a friend?"
"Can I use my bulb in the daytime?"

I found it during a search for light pollution 
I like the 3rd answer.

That depends on the quality of the light fitting and whether the bulb will be used for visual only, or have you thoughts of imaging with it?

I really want to buy and use 69c wide beam downlight bulbs in a clipsal f5 socket. Do I really have to pay $4.00 or more for a wide angle downlight to get a good result?

Depends Geoff. Do you want it on a Swivel mount or fixed to the ceiling, Slide-along tracking or Free-Standing Table Mount?

email of the week
An explanation of life.
On the first day God created the dog.
God said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. I will give you a life span of 20 years." The dog said, "That's too long to be barking. Give me 10 years and I'll give you back the other 10." So God agreed.
On the second day God created the monkey.
God said. "Entertain people, do monkey tricks and make them laugh. I'll give you a 20 year life span." The monkey said, "How boring, monkey tricks for 20 years? Dog gave you back 10, so that's what I'll do. okay?" God agreed.
On the third day God created the cow.
God said, "You must go to the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer. I will give you a life span of 60 years." The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for 60 years. Let me have 20 and I'll give back the other 40." And God agreed again.
On the fourth day God created man.
God said, "Eat sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. I'll give you 20 years.
"Man said, "What? Only 20 years! Tell you what, I'll take my 20, and the 40 the cow gave back and the 10 the monkey gave back and the 10 the dog gave back, that makes 80, okay?" "Okay," said God, "You've got a deal."
So that is why the first 20 years we eat, sleep, play, and enjoy ourselves; for the next 40 we slave in the sun to support our family; for the next 10 we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren and for the last 10 years we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone.
