Can You Hear Me Now?
Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone, never phoned his wife or his mother.
They were both deaf.
And, in case you didn't get the rather insensitive joke in the title of this post, here's its origin:
...although he's since gone over to Sprint.
And a ToTG public service announcement: if someone calls you and asks you a question or speaks very faintly and you complain they need to speak up and they "make an adjustment" and in a louder voice "Can you hear me now?", do NOT say "Yes." which might lead to them using that to change your long-distance service. Some sources on the 'net say it's not a proven scam, but best to not take chances. At the least, you'll be telling the possible scammer on the other end of the line that it's a working phone number.
Personally, if I don't recognize the number, I don't answer.

You've Got Another Thing Comin'-Judas Priest
A "bump" because the original video had been taken down.
It's also worth a bump because it's such a kick-ass tune.

A Very Bing Birthday
Among family, friends and my online pals. I've had a pretty good birthday so far. Several of my email newsletters have sent me special emails, also wishing me a happy birthday. (and I also got an email in my spam folder from a "young woman" who wished me a happy birthday and would give me a "special present" if I clicked on the enclosed link. I was tempted, but...)
Bing also sent me birthday wishes earlier today on their home page; the images were animated, but I just took screen shots.
Make a wish? Sure, so I clicked the button and got this:
I don't know how magical Bing is, but if my birthday wish comes true, I will be a lottery winner sometime this week. I hope it's the Powerball because it's MUCH larger than the Mega Millions or the Texas Lotto jackpots.

You Wear it Well - Rod Stewart & Faces
This sounds a WHOLE lot like "Maggie May".
Maybe that's why he had to read the lyrics off a piece of paper.
