The piano player stops and the bar goes deadly silent. After a brief pause, all eyes drop, the pianist returns to playing and the piece of road saunters up to the bar and orders a beer. At that precise moment, in walks a piece of freeway which says: "I'm the hardest bit of bitumen in the whole country and I'll take you on!" The tension mounts, other drinkers scatter and take cover. The two braggarts stood, staring at each other, for what seemed like an eternity. Once again, the door opens and, into the middle of the stand-off, walks a strange-looking piece of coloured bitumen with a blue stripe. Suddenly, the stand-off is forgotten! The now-sheepish braggarts turn their backs to the door, sit down at the bar and stare quietly into their drinks. The bartender sidles up to them and asks what the problem is. "Shhhh!", says the freeway, "Watch what you say, that guy's a real cycle path." notblocklox on "Community Test Forum" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/2864/page/8#post-64326 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 10:41:48 +0000 notblocklox 64326@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ Great voice, reminds me on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuapkQxES7M">Janis</a> Robert on "Community Test Forum" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/2864/page/8#post-64324 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 09:33:14 +0000 Robert 64324@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <a href="http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/6195#post-64318">TEST</a> :) ...

A new supermarket opened. It has an automatic water mister to keep the produce fresh. Just before it goes on, you hear the sound of distant thunder and the smell of fresh rain. When you pass the milk cases, you hear cows mooing and you experience the scent of fresh mown hay. In the meat department there is the aroma of charcoal grilled steaks with onions. When you approach the egg case, you hear hens cluck and cackle, and the air is filled with the pleasing aroma of bacon and eggs frying. The bread department features the tantalizing smell of fresh baked bread and cookies. I don't buy toilet paper there any more. szsjq on "Does anyone know any good fax software that's free?" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/2795#post-61226 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 05:49:01 +0000 szsjq 61226@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <a href="http://www.gotfreefax.com">GotFreeFax.com</a> is another website that allows user to send <a href="http://www.gotfreefax.com">free fax</a> online to the US and Canada.

However, especially for our non-American friends, I'm going to post a link to the famous Tim Conway elephant story outtake from the Carol Burnett Show. This is the whole one, too, often only the second part is shown. A little background. The show was edited together from two rehearsals. Anything flubbed in both rehearsals made in on to the final tape. Two rehearsals also helped if the show was going way over time in the first one, stuff could be cut out of the second. And Conway was notorius for adding ad-libs and physical bits that the others weren't prepared for to try and get them to crack up. He was particularly good at doing it to Harvey Korman. This is during a "The Family" sketch with Carol, Vicki, and Dick Van Dyke playing something like Trivial Pursuit. Tim, playing dim-witted Micky, launches into a couple of preposterous stories after one of the questions is about elephants. Even Tim starts cracking about how he's tearing up the other three. But Vicki Lawrence turns the tables and gets the last word, which is why it's an outtake. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qqE_WmagjY&feature=PlayList&p=EEA6C5C03FB410B7&index=0" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qqE_WmagjY&feature=PlayList&p=EEA6C5C03FB410B7&index=0</a> tiniki on "FREEWARE LIST HOME" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/684/page/3#post-61069 Wed, 29 Jul 2009 02:43:10 +0000 tiniki 61069@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ Cool!So many freeware links,very useful for me!
