Ooops but you really have to laugh.
Ladies and gentlemen,
For the last 17 years scientists in Australia have been studying for the origin of unknown signals being picked up by their Radio Telescope.
Yesterday they discovered the source of the signals were comming from a microwave oven in a neighbouring room. 
John.

Honest truth here we have still got our first Microwave that we bought when arriving here in Australia its a Toshiba! Now 35 years old and yes still working as well as ever!
Only once did I have to put a new Sensor in it which then cost me about $10 Wow!!

We had one that lasted almost 33 years before the turning gear gave up the ghost.
There was a British climate expert here 18 months ago interviewed on TV and asked about global warming.
His reply, 'If you want the truth then you must first take the politics out of the issue, I can tell you right now that man has little or no effect on the climate.

Yes I do recall the day her indoors suggested we get the mother in law an electric blanket to keep her warm at night. I suggested an electric chair to keep her warm all the time.
Thankfully the bruise was not too bad.
