JUST HOW MUCH IS A...... BILLION...????
A BILLION ......

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one
advertising agency did a good job of putting that
figure into perspective in one of its releases:

A billion seconds ago it was 1959.

A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.

A billion hours ago our ancestors were living
in the Stone Age.

A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes,
at the rate Washington spends it.

See what 8 years of Dumicrats caused us. Thank God we finally returned a Republican to the White House. Maybe we can slow down the check book now.

A small part of Billy Gates' fortune...

A fair estimate of the number of cats in the universe...

Probably more seconds than I have left.

The number of friggin's jets in my sector just after lunch, half of which are Delta, none of which will respond to a radio transmission until the second or third call. [Mad] It is of course, nobody's fault...

And when you get mad enough, you tell the buggers to find their own way down and log in at AR instead?

Now there's a thought......

Ususally they just wind up being last for some reason or another. Unless there happens to be an American handy... [Roll Eyes]
