Happy Friday!!! This week's Friday Funny is not a joke but, a series of images of certain activities. Activities that SHOULD NEVER be performed in the manner in which they are pictured. This post is not intended for instruction... In other words "These people are obviously professionals, don't attempt this at home!" Just click on a thumb nail to see a larger image.

Scam attempts: Aren’t they cute?
Howdy all! I hope all is well for everyone this fine day! Today, I got a fresh scan attempt in my e-mail.

Windows 7 Clean Install from Upgrade
Windows 7 seems to be a hit! Since it's release on October 22, I've installed it in one form or another MANY, times probably twelve in the last 6 days.
