Disabled Comedian barely smiles, has lost all sense of humor
Posted by admin on 14 Jan 2010 | Tagged as: Humor, Uncategorized
From time to time someone I work with encourages me to think about becoming a Comedian. He thinks I am hilariously funny and suggests it is because I was 48 years in Canada before moving here. He isn’t alone, my Dentist and his staff look forward to my visits, and are ready for a good laugh as I amuse then a lot. At my church I am the lead jester for sure, and have been introduced there as the resident comedian.
So I have lately been actually thinking of becoming a Comedian, wondering if that is my calling. I realized right away that self employed Comedians don’t have health insurance as a rule, or disability insurance unless they can buy it, dont have preexisting conditions, and can afford it. My mind leapt ahead as it does, and I wondered how would a Comedian need to collect on disability insurance? Of course! If a Comedian loses his sense of humor, then obviously he is disabled.
So now, picture the diagnostic tests which the psychiatric professionals will want to use in order to determine if someone has truly lost all of their sense of humor! Would they hire clowns and comedians to perform, show the subject old 3 Stooges films and Monty Python files, Laugh In, I Love Lucy, Jerry Seinfeld? With the subject all wired up to a lie detector looking for any response to punch lines?
Protect your personal info by rotating keycaps!!

Listen! This is really important and stunning in the brilliance of its simplicity.
Keystroke loggers are software programs that spy on your keyboard by tracking which keys you press and seding that stream over the inernet back to a data collection node. They are usually installed via a trojan horse in the form of some tempting free software or even free pornography.
There is only one way to protect yourself from this form of snooping and that is to bring your own keyboard with you whereever you use a computer. You need first to rotate all of the keycaps, gently prying them off and reattaching them to a random key postion. This has the effect of encoding what you are typing since the keystroke logging software can’t know what letters are printed on your keycaps now that you have mixed them all up.
It does take quite a long time to get familiar with your new scrambled keyboard, but perservere and you will eventually regain nearly your full former typing speed.
