Another Day With My PC

Need a laugh?

I’m sure I’ll be getting tons of nods from that query of mine. Laughter is indeed the best medicine, especially if that illness is caused by your boss or by undesirable correspondences from your credit card company.

Before the advent of the Internet, I used to get my weekly dozes of chuckles from Reader’s Digest’s “Laughter is the Best Medicine.” The topic of the jokes varied widely, but there weren’t any about computers back in the 80s. If there were, only a handful of people understood them.

At present, I don’t rely on weekly periodicals anymore to tickle my funny bone. As with almost anything, jokes can easily be fished out on the Web. In YouTube, the videos that are mostly viewed are those that could mimic the effect of nitrous oxide. Needless to say, Web sites, such as www.engrish.com, get thousands of clicks everyday.

Be careful when accessing Web sites or downloading videos on the Net, though. Some Web sites contain worms which could damage your system by simply entering it or if you click any of the links therein. The worms or malware may infect your registry or corrupt your files. Be sure that you have a registry cleaner and an antivirus installed in your PC.
