I know this completely off topic so I thought this was the prefect place to add this but did anyone else notice that Jeeves from Ask.com (or AskJeeves.com) has left? I thought maybe an image wasn't loading so I typed in "Where Did Jeeves Go?" and they gave me a legit response. I'm truly sad to see this icon of 10 years (was it really that long) gone now. I remember asking about Jeeves' sexuality because a friend told me they had a legit answer for that too. Kinda sad day for me even though I'm probably the last person to notice he was gone since most people don't use "AskJeeves" as much as they did in the past.
Ok, now back to my regularly scheduled running of autos!
I think Google kidnapped him...but then again thats just what I heard at the water cooler the other day
i miss jeeves :'(
I kicked Jeeve's ass!!! :P
It's now Ask Homer! :P

Back to my regularly scheduled trying to act like I'm working but really wondering about how much that woodchuck could chuck if he could chuck.
Let me find my rocket scientest glasses ::) ok then heres ur answer
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck
if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
The answer to this age old question has perplexed people for eons.
Part of the reason the question is so difficult to answer is that the amount of wood that woodchucks would chuck on a given day varies greatly with the seasons and with the metabolisms of any individual woodchuck.
Modern internet technology has advanced to the point that we can reliably monitor the amount a woodchuck chucks in real time.
The results of this monitoring are shown below. Please note that the numbers vary due to the dispositions of the woodchucks involved.
Attention: Woodchucks don't chuck unless you use Microsoft Internet Explorer as your browser.... Netscape scares them.
Average amount of wood a woodchuck would chuck in a given day 375
butt cords of wood.
Median amount of wood a woodchuck could chuck in a given hour 557
butt cords of wood.
Record high for woodchuck wood chucking of butt cords 589
was attained on .6 - 15 -1996
(NOTE: the above tabulations take into account that woodchuks chuck no wood on
February second, in observance of ground hog day.)

See, this is a clear example of how using Internet Explorer is wrong. I went to to the same website were we were allowed to monitor them but I used Firefox. They were quite pleased to see that no holes in the system and didn't have anything to worry about. At which time, the numbers are amazingly much higher:
Average amount of wood a woodchuck would chuck in a given day 895 butt cords of wood.
Median amount of wood a woodchuck could chuck in a given hour 1257 butt cords of wood.
It's amazing how much more work can be done with a much more reliable source!

I was starting to feel intellectually inferior.. Not that I felt superior before, it's just that I saw that answer, and I'm like, God, does she really know that or make it up? I mean, even if you did make it up, I would still feel inferior as I could have never pulled that off (even with a butt cord) and so.. hence the feelings of inferiority.
You know what? Next time I'll just ask Jeeve's. He's at Bob's, waiting tables.

Oh, yeah, so I'm in Squelchies with my new name, and I reckon the default settings have the chat filter on. So I was mocking those funky fish and I said in chat for no particular reason, "poppycock." Well... IT FILTERED THE END OF THE WORD! I mean, give me a break! Those funky fish on helium can say it but I can't type it?
I'm just sayin'
