ONE LINERS
Life is much too short to be somber all the time. When life gets serious, you just HAVE to laugh. Over the years, I have collected enough good one liners to last me for a long, long time. There are so many that I have organized them in categories. Each month, I'll present a few from my collection. Read and ENJOY!!

- On a clear disk you can seek forever
- Data, data everywhere, and not a byte to eat
