My computer is an Apple/Mac

seems Macs  have almost zero problems with virus's, spam, etc.  
The  only spam i have encountered is on the supermarket shelf

Woman goes to gynecologist   “Doctor, I have  dry blood in and around my vagina,”

The doctor has her change and put on  a “gown” and her nurse comes to assist during the examination.

 After the exam she gets dressed and comes into the doctor’s office.


She asks what is the cause of the dried up blood and is it serious?

 The  gynecologist  asks, “when was the last time you had intimate relations…sex?”

As woman to woman, you can tell me. The patient replies, “eighteen months ago, why?”


"That is not dried up blood it is rust from non use!"

I don't mind paying this myself (as I paid for the mbcoupes.org domain name already) for the good of the community, if people want to use it. It's not a money thing, at all. But it seems that the usage has been lower than I thought -- people didn't seem to want to move from this list over to the new one.

For those who signed up for the new list, a heart-felt thanks for your willingness to try something new. I think Steve will also delete the sign-up web page he created for the new list.
