Fun computer humor sites and cartoons - I like them!

Computer, Geek, and Internet humor - I love it.

I love computer humor, AND the About.com site. I also love fun computer cartoons and jokes.

One of my favorite silly computer jokes is the one with the CD holder that somebody thinks is a coffee cup holder. It is hilarious! Jerry told it at a BGAMUG meeting once.

I was looking for a funny computer and internet site and found some good links at About.com's Computer and Internet Humor site.

OOPS - This cartoon is from free-cartoons.sangrea.net

I will definitely be back here. Today I tried the "computer strip" joke at the site, and then briefly glanced at the I Kiss You site (pretty old now, and I did not see the movie - I wonder where he is from...), and also the Funny Sites of the Day (last one is 2009 - this needs updating!)

Further clicks brought me to the Web Humor pages, which are more recent.

The site mentioned the Daily Cute site, is it ever cute! It is full of very cuddly and sweet animal pictures, which I like anyhow.

I do know about the Daily Kitten, which is a place that definitely makes you smile every visit.

I hope this posting brings a smile too!

Burning a CD. :-) Ar Ar Ar...

PS I used to know a fabulous newsgroup that was really funny. Everyone shared their latest jokes. Anyone else know some good humor sites?

Guest Poster needed for the BGAMUG Blog - are you next?

Okay, fellow BGAMUG'ers... (Or is that BGAMUGGERS?) 

I have a few other blogs. It is no problem to post here, but I think having other members do guest postings or other postings is a GREAT idea.

Just let me know, BGAMUG members.

It is fun to write about the club, about your computer, or whatever takes your fancy.

I'll stick some pictures on here to jump-start your creative writing juices. :-)

How about an idea for a presentation? Or your favorite computer tip?

Some other ideas are your trip, a family story, your favorite hobby or hobbies, or stories about computer meetings in the past.

Maybe your New Year's resolutions would make fun reading.

 Just email me (Betsy) and let me know that you would like to post here.

And have a GREAT rest of the holiday week.

Next up: New Years Eve and Day. Do you have plans for that time?

I and other members would love to hear about how you have been doing too.

PS Happy Holidays - - Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, and a Joyous Yule to everyone!!

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, Joyous Yule, etc. etc.

I hope everyone has a GREAT holiday celebration this year. 

Hauling the Yule Log - - original from Clker.com

Have a Merry Christmas (December 25th, Sunday) , a Happy Hanukah (Dec. 20-28, Tues. - Wed.), and a Joyous Yule/New Year's holiday and Solstice Celebration this year on December 31st and January 1st.

The BGAMUG Computer Club's next meeting is on January 24th at 6:30 at the Bowling Green Technical College. There is a NEW map to the meeting on the BGAMUG Computer Club home page. Just click here to go there: http://www.bgamug.com/.

Truthfully, I do enjoy the wintertime mostly. Here in Bowling Green, the winters can be quite mild, but also can be quite stormy. We can have ice storms and big snowstorms too.

So here is hoping everyone is safe and happy throughout the holidays.

Some photos from the BGAMUG Christmas Party 2011

Here are just a few photos from the BGAMUG Christmas Party.

I took a few videos too, but need to check them out. I will post one or more here as soon as I check them and possibly learn how to edit them.

The Horseshoe Bend Family Band all playing together.

A closeup.

I like this photo!

The Horseshoe Bend Family Band was there! I really liked them. They got lots of applause too.

There were some good laughs, awesome decorations and planning, some fun tunes, and great food.

All in all, what a super great event. Thanks, Sharon! (Sharon was our Grand Party Planner.)

All for now

Dreaming of a Christmas Party... BGAMUG's party update

Hi, fans of BGAMUG

and BGAMUG members!

Well, the election is over, we have thanked the officers that served last year, learned about Microsoft Streets and Trips software (it's neat!) and now people are getting ready for the big BGAMUG Christmas party on Friday, December 2nd, from 6-8 p.m.

Theme: The color Purple
Bring: a homecooked dish or something else special (there will be prizes for the best dishes!)
People can put their names on the bottom of the dishes, and maybe put a title on a card attached.

Be Prepared: to see the group the Horseshoe Bend Family Band.

We have awards planned, and great food, of course.

See you there!

Members, find out more about the party at the club website.

Also, if you want your picture taken with Santa, you can go with other club members to Able Court the next day after our party. Read our newsletter for Nov. 2011 to find out more about that.
