No- please- just... just... DON'T!!!! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Harrison" <jim@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "[ISAserver.org Discussion List]" <isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, August 06, 2004 5:36 PM Subject: [isalist] OT: The Misadventures of the Little Girl Mouse > http://www.ISAserver.org > > Once upon a time, there was a little girl mouse who lived in a wheatfield with her mother (Dad had heard this one before and hauled ass out of there; how smart are you?). > > The LGM was about 16 mouse years old and was busily preparing herself for a very important date one fine spring afternoon when her mother walked in and asked her, "Well; don't you look fine! What's the occasion, sweetie?" > > The LGM turned to her mother and beaming her best happy-smile, replied "Mom! It's spring, I'm 16 and I have a LBM (need I explain?) across the wheatfield who's waiting for me so that we can spend the whole afternoon doing what teenage mice do in the wheatfield when spring comes around; Jeez, Mom!" > > Her mom, remembering the heady days of her youth, just smiled knowingly at her daughter, but admonished her to be careful crossing the wheatfield because the farmer was also out in the field harvesting the wheat. Since he can't see little mice from his perch way up high on the combine, she could easily run afoul of the farmer's toys and end up a smiling greasy spot in the wheat instead of a greasy smiling spot on the other side of the wheatfield as she plans. > > The LGM got up, kissed her mother on the cheek and ran bounding down the front porch steps waving goodbye and yelling, "'Bye, Mom! I'll see you tonight!" > > Well, as all teenagers are wont to do, the LGM went scurrying across the wheatfield, unmindful of the approaching farmer and his combine. As you might expect, the LGM was sucked kicking and screaming into the thrasher, where she was bounced, trounced and generally abused until finally, she was barfed out onto the ground with the chaff. > > A few minutes later, she came to, sat up and began taking stock of her situation. Her hair was a total mess (even in teenager terms), she was pretty well beat up, bruised and battered, but nothing broken; her pretty party dress was a shambles and she was missing one of her party shoes that she had purchased just for this occasion (the nooky, not the thrashing). > > The LGM got up and, as fast as her little legs would carry her (since no one else was around to do it), began running back towards her house screaming "Mommy-Mommy-Mommy! Oh, MOMMY!!". > > The mother, hearing her child's sorrowful wailing, ran to the front porch thinking the worst and began calling "Over here, sweetie; over HERE!!" > > When she saw her baby bursting through the edge of the wheatfield crying and screaming, she ran out to meet her on the front lawn. They both dropped to their knees and held each other while the LGM just kept crying over and over, > > (..sorry, gotta work for this one, too..) > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > "Mommy, Mommy; I've been reaped; I've been reaped!" > > > Jim Harrison > MCP(NT4, W2K), A+, Network+, PCG > http://isaserver.org/Jim_Harrison/ > http://isatools.org > Read the help / books / articles! > > > ------------------------------------------------------ > List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist > ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp > ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ > ------------------------------------------------------ > Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: > World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com > Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com > No.1 Exchange Server Resource Site: http://www.msexchange.org > Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ > Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ > Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com > ------------------------------------------------------ > You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: thor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist > >
