I've Been Everywhere (Sung by Johnny Cash) I was totin' my pack along the dusty Winnemucca road When along came a semi with a high and canvas covered load "If you're going to Winnemucca, Mack, with me you can ride." So I climbed into the cab and then I settled down inside. He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand. And I said, "Listen, Bud, I've traveled every road in this here land." (Chorus) I've been everywhere, man; I've been everywhere, man 'Cross the deserts bare, man, I've breathed the mountain air, man Of travel, I've had my share, man, I've been everywhere.

Yeh, the population was 54,000 years ago. Actually, the atlas called it Soviet Union, so I figured Russia would do now. So now, come to think of it, there is: Mary, Russia and Ann Arbor, Michigan;-)) | ||

Hey Maryann, ^^Funny thing, I trust the above mentioned names with people attached to them;-)) Must be a flaw in the saying;-))^^ I said don't play poker, shoot pool or get into a gunfight or argument people who have places for first names. I didn't say not to TRUST them. I'd trust the San Francisco Kid? Wouldn't you? And if I were storming Hitler's Reichstag bunker in the final hours of WWII in the European Theatre I'd rather have Nevada Smith at my back than Winnie the Pooh. How 'bout you? | ||
| Max |

| Maryann |
About the quote! Sorry, my memory has a hard time remembering it's own name!!;-)) As to playing poker, shooting pool or get into a gunfight or argument people who have places for first names: I guess I named some "duzzy" sharp shootin' people huh;-)) | ||

Maryann, Your UPC reference -- United Parcel Church? -- reminded me that UPS is contemplating a merger with FedEx. The new name to be: FedUp. | ||
| Max |
Maryann again, Since you utterly refuse to enlighten Valerie, me and I'm sure many others as to the meaning of the acronym UPC, I was forced to resort to Go Network Search Engine and cruise the Internet. And lo and behold . . . . Eurika! I found the answer! It's . . . . UPC = United Poultry Concerns Don't believe me, huh? Well, then, check it out for yourself: http://www.upc-online.org/action_alerts.html | ||
| Max |
Maryann again, Oooops! Blew it! It's not United Poultry Concerns after all. It's United Pan-Europe Communications. Go to the proof: http://www.upc.nl/ | ||
| Max |
'Cause if UPC = United Poultry Concerns, Then it shouldn't be UPC at all, but: UPEC = You Peck = United Poultry Concerns Right? | ||
| Max |
Wrong! It's: UPC = Universal Product Code Universal Product Code Identification Number which they can encode into a UPC-A or EAN-12 bar code symbol on their product. In the United States of America a company can obtain a unique six digit company identification number by becoming a member of the Uniform Code Council (UCC). The address and phone is Uniform Code Council, Inc., Princeton Pike Corporate Center, 1009 Lenox Dr., Suite 202, Lawrenceville, New Jersey 08648, Telephone: 609-620-0200, Fax: 609.620.1200. In the rest of the world, contact EAN International (EAN). EAN International maintains an excellent FAQ, standards information and a list of member organisations around the world, many of which have web sites. The EAN site is a must visit if you need to put a bar code on your product. http://www.adams1.com/pub/russadam/new.h tml | ||

Creating Woman! ;-) Adam was walking around the Garden of Eden feeling very lonely, so God asked Adam, "What's wrong with you?" Adam said he didn't have anyone to talk to. God said he was going to give him a companion and it would be a woman. He said, "This person will cook for you and wash your clothes. She will always agree with every decision you make. She will bear you children and never ask you to get up in the middle of the night to take care of them. She will not nag you, and will always be the first to admit she was wrong when you've had a disagreement. She will never have a headache, and will freely give you love and compassion whenever needed." Adam asked God, "What will a woman like this cost?" God said, "An arm and a leg." Adam said, "What can I get for just a rib?" The rest is history. Keep smiling, and have a Great Day. JOTR |
