Lancaster-Farming, Saturday, October 18, 1997-B3
reminded repeatedly about how
important it is to communicate. By
communicating, we learn, share,
instruct, dialog with one another,
(sometimes irritate one another)
and just generally connect-the
dots of information we need to get
along with one another through
life.
Did the caveman start it with
grunts and grumbles that evolved
into a language of sorts? Then
some artistic early human ancestor
took this communication stuff a
bit farther and scratched crude
drawings on the sides of caves to
share information. A diary or
account of some particularly
momentous occasion? The first
version of a billboard? Or early
mankind's equivalent of the
reminder note on the re&igerator?
Whatever. We’ve come a long
way from there, baby, runinng the ’
gamut of increasing sophistica
tion, from smoke signals to the
first printed page to today’s
instant electronic conversation.
E-mail. If you have it and use it,
you probably love it. If you don't,
you likely fall into one of two
categories; just haven't gotten
around to it yet, or absolutely,
positively, want nothing to do
with it.
I became an e-mail enthusiast
the first time a return message
downloaded from somewhere in
the electronic innards of a bank of
computers humming away in Out
er Mongolia. Or wherever. And,
among the more serious contacts
from family, friends, and business
associates regularly come day
brighteners from fellow e-mailers
with whacky senses of humor.
Like these “groaner" one-liners
that recently turned up on my
monitor screen and seemed worth
sharing:
- Everyone has a photographic
memory. Some just don’t have
film.
- A clean desk is a
sign of a cluttered desk
drawer.
i - If you choke a
! Smurf, what color does
it turn?.
| - A day without sun
shine is like night.
-There are three kinds
of people: those who
can count and those who
can’t
- Energizer Bunny
arrested, charged with
battery.
- Chocolate: the
OTHER food group.
(My personal motto.)
- I poured Spot
remover on my dog.
Now he’s gone.
- I couldn’t repair
your brakes so I made
I your hom louder.
- How do you tell
j when you run out of
invisible ink?
I - Artificial intelli-
Igence is no match for
I natural stupidity.
-1 used to be indeci
sive... now I’m not sure.
- Why do psychics
i have to ask you for your
name?
- For Sale; Parachute.
Only used once, never
opened, small stain.
- How does Teflon
stick to the pan?
- OK, so what’s the
speed of dark?
- Corduroy pillows -
they’re making
headlines.
- Laughing stock:
cattle with a sense of
humor.
While I love the con
cept of e-mail, the early
morning, still-half
asleep time of day that I
like to use it will dis
courage my interest in
moving up to the next
step, one of those built
in computer video
cameras for transmitting
electronic, face-to-face
conversations.
Some things are just
better 1 left un
communicated.
