WEIRD SIDE E-ZINE
Issue #50
<><><><><><><><><><>
EDITORS NOTE
<><><><><><><><><><>
Dear subscribers,
Welcome again to your favorite E-zine. Hey, this is the 50st
edition already! I never believed I would make it so far when
I started this newsletter, so thanks for helping me get here!
Today I'd like to introduce you to some friends of me, who
play in a rock band called "Cowboys and Aliens". If you like
your rock a bit on the rough side, and Black Sabbath and
Led Zeppelin take a prominent place in your CD-collection,
then this is your stuff.
C&A released a new album this year named "A Trip The
Stonehenge Colony", and they played with Monster Magnet
on their European Tour. You can bring the cowboys a visit
at their new -and nicely layed out- web site at:
<a href=" http://www.stonerrock.com/cowboysandaliens ">AOL Click
here</a>
TIP: One of my favorite C&A songs is 'Let me take you home'.
You can download this song for FREE from the web site,
and listen to it on your PC while reading this issue :-)
Don't forget to leave a note in their guestbook, ok? -They
may offer me a few beers for this promo :-)
Thanks for being here again, and for letting me in your
mailbox for 50 issues!
Enjoy the read!
Dirk, your editor, waiting for your congratulations, booze and
flowers at:

WEIRD NEWS
-------------------------------------------------------------
A 37-year old Dutch man was taken to a mental clinic
after he repeatedly failed to commit suicide by jumping
off a bridge in The Hague. The man had flung himself 3
times into a waterway near the city. Police found him,
leaning over the bridge's railing, contemplating a fourth
attempt. The man, suffering from hypothermia, was
admitted to a psychiatric hospital.
A man rented a backhoe to do some work in his yard in
Boxford, Mass, and it wasn't long before he called the gas
company to report a "strong smell" of natural gas -he
apparently ruptured a gas main with the heavy equipment.
Minutes later, he called the gas company again, but the
house exploded as he made the second call. He said,
'Forget it. The house is gone.' The home was worth almost
500.000$. (Boston Herald)
California Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante meant to say National
Negro American Labor Council, but the N-word slipped out
before the group of African-Americans. "I am truly mortified,"
he says. "I feel humiliated, and I really regret this." (San Jose
Mercury News)
A team of radio deejay from San Jose got suspended after
saying -jokingly- that motorists should open car doors or
run over motorcyclists and bicyclists.
Doug Stead spent $120,000 to fight a $117 speeding ticket.
Doug is willing to take his case to the highest court. "My wife
told me from the beginning: 'Pay the damn ticket.' This has
gone a little further than I originally anticipated. It's not like
I paid $120,000 in one whack. It's like owning a big sailboat.
It's nickelled and dimed me to death for 5 years.

USER TIP
------------------------------------------------------------
Speed up your keyboard!
PC's should make life easier, not more complicated, and
your keyboard shouldn't make you wait when you're trying
to get a letter or email done.
You can adjust a couple of options that may make things
less annoying for you with an applet in the Control Panel.
Click Start - Settings - Control Panel - and double click the
Keyboard icon. The Keyboard Properties window will open.
Set the 'Character repeat' so the Repeat delay is short.
Slide the slider clear to the right, and set the Repeat rate
to Fast. Again, set this slider to the right.
You can test the effect of your changes by clicking in the
box and holding down a key to test things. What box? You'll
see when you open the Keyboard Properties window. These
changes will improve the responsiveness of your keyboard.
* This and hundreds of other tips are covered in a new
Ebooklet called "Keyboard MAGIC!" You'll want to pick up
