Michiel van der Vlist FTSC Election Coordinator FIDOGAZETTE Vol 9 No 12 Page 4 November 11th 2015 ----------------------------------------------------------------- ============================================================ Humor Section ============================================================ From Daryl Stout, 1:19/33 And... thank you again Daryl :) ==== A renowned cardiologist died, and had an elaborate funeral. Since he was respected by so many in the medical community, and elsewhere, there was a large crowd at the funeral. Behind the casket, was a huge heart, covered in flowers. After the eulogy, the casket was closed, the heart opened up, and the casket rolled inside it. The heart closed, sealing the deceased cardiologist inside forever. Moments later, one of the mourners busted out laughing. After everyone else gave him dirty looks, etc., he apologized, saying "I'm sorry. I was thinking of my own funeral...I'm a gynecologist". The proctologist fainted dead away.

If you have an idea for a column or a series of articles, please contact me :) New! Mailing-List subscriptions via http://www.filegate.net/sub.html but of course you can always link into your uplink and use Tick or a tick compatible program. Where to Send Your Articles Unlike most editors, I surely do not mind running my mouth when there is a sparsity of articles for the 'zine. I'd MUCH rather you sent in material... lacking that, I will fill these issues with my meanderings and thoughts and hopefully we will grow into something of consequence here :) Write an article! If you WOULD like to submit an article, feel free to drop your article off at: Email attach to address: janis @ filegate.net Fidonet attach: Janis Kracht at 1:261/38 Modem: 607-200-4076 Binkp: 1:261/100 filegate.net port 24555 telnet mailer: filegate.net If you are using routed Fidonet mail, don't send articles as routed attaches. They will fail somewhere along the path before getting here. Send them instead direct to filegate.net. Give it a title, sign your name and network address if you have one and send it along! Don't worry about the format, I can take anything you send me and mutilate it further as you can see above. Linux is nice that way (g). Spell checking your own work will help though (something I'm typically guilty of (g)). To send reviews or recipes to the Food section, email or netmail Janis as above. Email address for submissions to Dr.Debug: To send a question to Dr. Debug, email a question to: drdebug @ filegate.net or post in the fidogazette echo! :) To send a listing to the FidoGazette bbslist, email your listing to: bbslist @ filegate.net or post it in the fidogazette echo!
