While examining subpoenaed material on Russian interference during the election, a photo of Al Gore inventing the world wide web/Internet surfaced . . .
Truth in Advertising
The “For Sale by Owner” advertisement on the Internet had referred to the building as “Quaint”, “Lots of country charm,” “One of a kind” and the statement, “Need for some minor repairs forces seller to accept a lower price.” The ad also said “pictures on request.” It soon became clear why pictures weren’t included in the original Craig’s List ad. . . . .

No More Big Gulps
While checking the Internet for daily news, Jose (his friends called him JoJo, and in spite of his Spanish first name, did not pronounce it HoHo) learned that the mayor of New York had banned Big Gulps or any drink over 16 ounces. That ruled out New York for his vacation, but what the hay, he liked Las Vegas better anyway. . . . . David, Sf.G.
A Troubling Thought
While wading in the water just off the public beach, Bob saw a convoy of black vans and pursuit cars skid to a halt not far from him in the sand. As the armed SWAT teams got out, the leader, using a bullhorn, told Bob, “Don’t worry, we’re from the Internet,” but he was not comforted. Bob realized that he had been caught breaking the rules; he had placed the same ad on Craigslist twice at the same time in the same city, using two two separate E-mail addresses . . . . David, Sf.G.
