Winders 98

Microsoft News Release

It has come to our attention that a few copies of the Georgia addition of Windows 98 may have accidentally been shipped outside of Georgia. If you have one of the Georgia additions you may need some help understanding the commands.

The Georgia addition may be recognized by looking at the opening screen.
It reads Winders 98 with a background picture of General Lee super imposed on a Confederate flag and shipped with a Daisy Duke screen saver.

Also note:

Recycle bin is labeled Outhouse
My Computer is called This Infernal Contraption
Dial up networking is called Good ol' Boys
Control Panel is know as the Dern Dashboard
Hard drive is referred to as 4 wheeled drive
Floppies are called them little ole plastic disk things

Instead of an Error Message
you get a winder covered with a garbage bag and duck tape.

ok= ats awww-right
cancel= hail no
reset= awa shoot
yes = shore
no = naaaa
go to = over yonder
back = back yonder
help= help me out here
stop = ternit off

No offense Georgians, I happen to think Georgia is a lovely state. I just thought it was cute.

That and I actually understand the Georgia addition better. Ha!. ;D

This was freakin' hilarious! Did you write this, or is this coming from somewhere?

I heard a funny hillbilly joke.

What do you call it when a hillbilly is reborn?

Reintarnation.

Sweet. Only Georgia I've ever seen though was the Atlanta airport. :(

There are so many connecting flights in Atlanta that there is a saying: When you go to your immortal home you'll have to catch a connection in Altanta. ;p


BTW--That's the only way I've seen Oakland and LA... through the airport terminal window. ;)
