[nilesfunnies] Your chance to make lots of money !


This is your chance of a lifetime - please read.

I am in the process of entering into a very profitable deal involving a
very select and sought after country hotel. This is not your run of the
mill rubbish type establishment - this is one of the most tasteful country
hotels for miles around. Conference facilities available + shooting in many
acres of private land if needed. Land to be extended soon

I expect the deal to be finalised later this week but I feel I should offer
others the chance to make money quickly. If you feel you can spare the odd
£50K then please contact me at :-

Ms C. Pemberton
Grange Farm
Ambridge
Borsetshire
FM37 8HF

Don't leave it too late as I'm sure there will be many takers for this
fantastic affer.

Thank you.

The telephone rings ...

"Hello, Señor Lucky? This is Manuel the caretaker at your country house,
in the Dominican Republic."

"Ah yes, Manuel. What can I do for you? Is there a problem?"

"Um, I am just calling to advise you, Señor, that your parrot died."

"My parrot? Dead? The one that won the International competition?"

"Si, Señor, that's the one."

"Damn! That's a pity! I spent a small fortune on that bird. What did he
die from?"

"From eating rotten meat, Señor"

"Rotten meat? Who the hell fed him rotten meat?"

"Nobody, Señor. He ate the meat of the dead horse."

"Dead horse? What dead horse?"

"The thoroughbred, Señor Lucky. He died from all that work pulling the
water cart."

"Are you insane? What water cart?"

"The one we used to put out the fire, Señor"

"Good Lord! What fire are you talking about, man?"

"The one at your house, Señor! A candle fell and the curtains caught on
fire."

"What the.....!!! But there's electricity at the house!!! What was the
candle for?"

"For the funeral, Señor."

"WHAT BLOODY FUNERAL?!"

"Your wife's, Señor...She showed up one night out of the blue and I
thought she was a thief, so I hit her with your new Tiger Woods Nike
Driver."

SILENCE.................

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Another Welshman


Another Welshman
A Welsh man buys several sheep, hoping to breed them for wool. After
several weeks, he notices that none of the sheep are getting pregnant,
and phones a vet for help. The vet tells him that he should try
artificial insemination.

The farmer doesn't have the slightest idea what this means but, not
wanting to display his ignorance, only asks the vet how he will know
when the sheep are pregnant. The vet tells him that they will stop
standing around and instead will lie down and wallow in grass when they
are pregnant.

The man hangs up and gives it some thought. He comes to the conclusion
that artificial insemination means he has to impregnate the sheep
himself. So, he loads the sheep into his Land Rover, drives them out
into the woods, has sex with them all, brings them back, and goes to
bed.

Next morning, he wakes and looks out at the sheep. Seeing that they are
all still standing around, he deduces that the first try didn't take,
and loads them in the Land Rover again. He drives them out to the
woods, bangs each sheep twice for good measure, brings them back, and
goes to bed exhausted.

Next morning, he wakes to find the sheep still just standing round.
"Try again" he tells himself, and proceeds to load them up, and drive
them out to the woods. He spends all day shagging the sheep and upon
returning home, falls listlessly into bed.

The next morning, he cannot even raise himself from the bed to look but
of the window. He asks his wife to look, and tell him if the sheep are
lying in the grass.

"No," she says, "they're all in the Land Rover, and one of them is
beeping the horn.

[nilesfunnies]Fwd: Marple is suspended over “offensive” programme


<http://www.willhowells.org.uk/blog/2006/02/25/marple-is-suspended-over-offensive-programme/>

Marple has been suspended from ITV1 for four weeks, it was announced
today. The Adjudication Panel of the Standards Board for Television took
the action following a complaint from the Agatha Christie Society, which
described the series as “deeply offensive”. The complaint cited
Geraldine McEwan’s awful acting and a string of hammy guest actors.

A spokesman for ITV said the decision was disgraceful. “Millions of
people tune in to Marple every week. If they don’t want to watch it,
they can turn it off. The three members of the Adjudication Panel don’t
even have TVs.”

The chairman of the panel, Colonel Masterson Grange, said it had decided
on a ban because Geraldine McEwan had failed to apologise for her
performance.

Midsomer Murders will take the role of Flagship Sunday Night Whodunit
while Marple serves out the sentence.

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Poker Game


Poker Game
Six retired Irishmen were playing poker in O'Leary's apartment when
Paddy Murphy loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest and drops
dead at the table.

Showing respect for their fallen brother, the other five continue
playing standing up.

Michael O'Conner looks around and asks, "Oh, me boys, someone got's
to tell Paddy's wife. Who will it be?"

They draw straws. Paul Gallagher picks the short one. They tell him
to be discreet, be gentle, don't make a bad situation any worse.

"Discreet??? I'm the most discreet Irishmen you'll ever meet.
Discretion is me middle name. Leave it to me."

Gallagher goes over to Murphy's house and knocks on the door. Mrs.
Murphy answers and asks what he wants.

Gallagher declares: "Your husband just lost $500 playing poker and is
afraid to come home."

"Tell him to drop dead!", says Murphy's wife.

"I'll go tell him." says Gallagher.

WOMAN IN AUDIENCE: 'I don't really understand. How is the new plan
going to fix the problem?'

Verbatim response: PRESIDENT BUSH:

'Because the -- all which is on the table begins to address the big cost
drivers. For example, how benefits are calculated, for example, is on
the table. Whether or not benefits rise based upon wage increases or
price increases. There's a series of parts of the formula that are being
considered. And when you couple that, those different cost drivers,
affecting those -- changing those with personal accounts, the idea is to
get what has been promised more likely to be -- or closer delivered to
that has been promised. Does that make any sense to you? It's kind of
muddled. Look, there's a series of things that cause the -- like, for
example, benefits are calculated based upon the increase of wages, as
opposed to the increase of prices. Some have suggested that we calculate
-- the benefits will rise based upon inflation, supposed to wage
increases. There is a reform that would help solve the red if that were
put into effect. In other words, how fast benefits grow, how fast the
promised benefits grow, if those -- if that growth is affected, it will
help on the red.'

[nilesfunnies] With apologies to Scotland fans

With apologies to Scotland fans
Fast forward to 2010 - it is just before Scotland v England at the next
World Cup Group game. Rooney goes into the Englands changing room to
find all his teammates looking a bit glum.

"What's up?" he asks.
"Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know
it's important but it's only Scotland. They're sh*te and we can't be
bothered".

Rooney looks at them and says "Well, I reckon I can beat these by
myself, you lads go down the pub."

So Rooney goes out to play Scotland by himself and the rest of the
English team go off for a few jars.

After a few pints they wonder how the game is going, so they get the
landlord to put the teletext on. A big cheer goes up as the screen reads
"England 1 - Scotland 0 (Rooney 10minutes)". He is beating Scotland all
by himself!

Anyway, a few more pints later and the game is forgotten until someone
remembers "It must be full time now, let's see how he got on". They put
the teletext on.

"Result from the Stadium "England 1 (Rooney 10 minutes) - Scotland 1
(Mcsh*te 89 minutes)".

They can't believe it, he has single handedly got a draw against
Scotland!! They rush back to the Stadium to congratulate him. They find
him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sat with his head in his
hands.

He refuses to look at them. "I've let you down, I've let you down."

"Don't be daft, you got a draw against Scotland, all by yourself. And
they only scored at the very, very end!"

"No, No, I have, I've let you down... I got sent off after 12 minutes"

3 Daughters
A mother had 3 daughters. They were all getting married within a short
time period. Because mom was a bit worried about how their sex lives
would get started, she made them all promise to send a postcard from the
honeymoon with a few words on how marital sex felt.

The first girl sent a card from Hawaii two days after the wedding. The
card said nothing but "Nescafe." Mom was puzzled at first, but then went
to the kitchen and got out the Nescafe jar. It said: "Good till the last
drop." Mom blushed, but was pleased for her daughter.

The second girl sent the card from Vermont a week after the wedding, and
the card read: "Benson & Hedges." Mom now knew to go straight to her
husband's cigarettes, and she read from the Benson & Hedges pack: "Extra
Long. King Size." She was again slightly embarrased but still happy for
her daughter.

The third girl left for her honeymoon in the Caribbean. Mom waited for a
week, nothing. Another week went by, and still nothing. Then after a
whole month, a card finally arrived. Written on it with shaky
handwriting were the words: "British Airways." Mom took out her latest
Harper's Bazaar magazine, flipped through the pages fearing the worst,
and finally found the ad for the airline. The ad said: "Three times a
day, seven days a week, both ways." Mom fainted.

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Sex life

When the good Lord was making the world, he called Man aside and bestowed
upon him 20 years of normal sex life. Man was horrified, but the Creator
refused to budge. Then the Lord called the Monkey and gave him 20 years.
"But I don't need 20 years," said the Monkey. "Ten years is plenty."

"May I have the other 10 years?" asked Man. The Monkey agreed. The Lord
called the Lion next and also gave him 20 good years. The Lion also only
wanted 10, so again Man asked for the remaining ten. Then came the Donkey,
who was also granted 20 years. Like the others, 10 was more than enough.
Man again asked for the spare ten years and got them.

This explains why Man has 20 years of normal sex life, 10 years of
monkeying around, 10 years of lion 'bout it, and 10 years of making an ass
out of himself.

Paddy had been drinking at his local Dublin pub all day and most of the
night. Mick, the bartender, says "You'll not be drinking any more tonight,
Paddy".

Paddy replies "OK Mick, I'll be on my way then". Paddy spins around on his

"Shoite" he says and pulls himself up by the stool and dusts himself off.
He takes a step towards the door and falls flat on his face.

"Shoite, Shoite!"

He looks to the doorway and thinks to himself that if he can just get to
the door and some fresh air he'll be fine. He belly crawls to the door and
shimmies up to the door frame.

He sticks his head outside and takes a deep breath of fresh air, feels
much better and takes a step out onto the pavement.

He falls flat on his face.

"Bi'Jesus... I'm fockin' focked," he says.

He can see his house just a few doors down, and crawls to the door and
shimmies up the door frame, opens the door and shimmies inside.

He takes a look up the stairs and says "No fockin' way".

But he crawls up the stairs to his bedroom door and says "I can make it to
the bed".

He takes a step into the room and falls flat on his face.

He says "Fock this, I gotta stop drinking," and falls into bed.

The next morning, his wife, Jess, comes into the room carrying a cup of
coffee and says, "Get up Paddy. Did you have a bit to drink last night?"

Paddy says, "I did Jess. I was fockin' pissed. But how'd you know?"

[nilesfunnies] Confidential Prison Service Memo - Abu Hamza

To: Charles Clarke, Home Secretary

From: Steve Hodgson, Head of Human Resources, Prison Service

Date: 7th Feb 2006

Subject: Enabling New Customers

Dear Charles,

Please accept my belated thanks for the Christmas card and small bottle
of vintage malt whisky. I wasn't aware that Asda possessed their own
distillery. How very knowledgable of you, it I may say so, Home
Secretary.

As a Key Grade One Stakeholder in the ongoing Enabling Customers
Working Group, I hope you won't object to my opportunism in sending
this memorandum. I understand from recent press reports that the
radical Muslim cleric Abu Hamza has just received a sentence of seven
years. May I personally congratulate you on this success. Thanks to
you, we can all sleep more safely in our beds at night. Well, at least
we can when we're not on duty.

As you may be aware, there will be fierce competition amongst the
prison governors to secure Mr Hamza's custom. Had you given any thought
to which prison he might chose? Whilst I would be the first to applaud
your wise policy of 'Customer Choice', I think you should consider
limiting Mr Hamza's options to the larger establishments. In
particular, I would strongly advocate selecting a prison which has a
thriving entertainments initiative.

The governors of Belmarsh and Wormwood Scrubs have already been in
contact asking for permission to amend their theatrical programmes to
provide for a seasonal Christmas pantomime. Coincidentally, both have
alighted upon PETER PAN.

Far be it from me to seek to influence you on this matter, but I
thought you might like to reflect upon the prifitable photo
opportunities that could arise from such a venture were Mr Hamza to be
involved. Christmas is the perfect time to put aside cultural and
social enmity and heralde our commonly shared values (even if Muslims
don't actually celebrate Christmas). By engaging Mr Hamza in an
empathy-inducing social activity we could demonstrate to the world at
large that not only had we broken the cleric's extreme resolve, but
that we are a tolerant and forgiving society.

His hook would also come in very useful.

Yours sincerely,

Steve Hodgson

[nilesfunnies] Fwd: Fit


I was in the pub the other day when someone told me this:

What do you do you do if your nan has a fit in the bath?

Chuck in some detergent and your dirty laundry.

At which point someone leaned over and said, "How dare you say that?
I'll have you know that my nan died like that."

"She choked on a sock"

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Husband Super Store

Husband Super Store
Recently a "Husband Super Store" opened where women could go to choose a
Husband from among many men. It was laid out over five floors, with the
men increasing in positive attributes as you ascended.

The only rule was, once you opened the door to any floor, you HAD to
choose a man from that floor; if you went up a floor, you couldn't go back
down except to leave the place, never to return.

A couple of girlfriends went to the shopping centre to find some husbands.

First floor
The door had a sign saying, "These men have jobs and love kids."
The women read the sign and said, "Well, that's better than not having a
job or not loving kids, but I wonder what's further up?" So up they went.

Second floor
The sign read, "These men have high paying jobs, love kids, and are
extremely good looking." "Hmmm," said the ladies, "But, I wonder what's
further up?"

Third floor
This sign read, "These men have high paying jobs, are extremely good
looking, love kids and help with the housework."
"Wow," said the women, "Very tempting." But there was another floor, so
further up they went."

Fourth floor
This door had a sign saying "These men have high paying jobs, love kids,
are extremely good looking, help with the housework and have a strong
romantic streak."
"Oh, mercy me," they cried, "Just think what must be awaiting us further
on!"

So up to the fifth floor they went.

Fifth floor
The sign on that door said, "This floor is empty and exists only to prove
that women are f**king impossible to please. The exit is to your left, we
hope you fall down the stairs."

[nilesfunnies] Fw: apres Groundhog day

This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the
Union Address fall in the same week.

As someone on Air America Radio pointed out, "It is
an ironic juxtaposition: One involves a meaningless
ritual in which we look to a creature of little
intelligence for prognostication, and the other
involves a groundhog."

red, orange, yellow, green, blue & violet

An old man was sitting on a bench at the mall. A teenager sat down next to
him. He had spiked hair that was red, orange, yellow, green, blue &
violet.

The old man stared. Whenever the teen looked, the old man was staring.

Finally, the teenager said sarcastically "What's the matter, old man,
never done anything wild in your life?"

Without missing a beat the old man replied, "Got drunk once and had sex
with a peacock. Just wondering if you were my son."

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Ralph the Rooster

A farmer has about 500 hens, but no rooster, and he wants chicks. So, he
goes down the road to the next farmer and asks if he has a rooster that
he would sell.

The other farmer says, "Yep, I've got this great rooster, named Ralph.
He'll service every chicken you got, no problem.

Well, Ralph the rooster costs £3,000, a lot of money, but the farmer
decides he'd be worth it. So, he buys Ralph.

The farmer takes Ralph home and sets him down in the barnyard, but
first he gave the rooster a pep talk. "I want you to pace yourself now.
You've got a lot of chickens to service here, and you cost me a lot of
money."

Consequently, I'll need you to do a good job. So, take your time and
have some fun," the farmer said, with a chuckle.

Ralph seems to understand, so the farmer points toward the hen house
and Ralph takes off like a shot. WHAM! Ralph nails every hen in the hen
house three or four times, and the farmer is really shocked. After that,
the farmer hears a commotion in the duck pen and, sure enough, Ralph is in
there.

Later, the farmer sees Ralph after a flock of geese down by the lake.
Once again - WHAM! He gets all the geese.

By sunset he sees Ralph out in the fields chasing quail and pheasants. The
farmer is distraught and worried that his expensive rooster won't even
last 24 hours. Sure enough, the farmer goes to bed and wakes up the next
morning to find Ralph on flat on his back out in the middle of the yard,
mouth open, tongue hanging out and both feet sticking straight up in the
air.

Buzzards are circling overhead. The farmer, saddened by the loss of
such a colourful and expensive animal, shakes his head and says, "Oh,
Ralph, I told you to pace yourself. I tried to get you to slow down, now
look what you've done to yourself."

Ralph opens one eye, nods toward the buzzards circling in the sky and
says, "Shhhh! They're getting closer."

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Tesco


Tesco

One day, in line at the works cafeteria, Jack says to Mike behind him, "My
elbow hurts like hell. I suppose I'd better see a doctor."

"Listen, don't waste your time down at the surgery," Mike replies.
"There's a diagnostic computer at Tesco. Just give it a urine sample and
the computer will tell you what's wrong, and what to do about it. It
takes ten seconds and only costs five pounds.....a lot
quicker and better than a doctor."

So Jack collects a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Tesco. He
deposits five pounds and the computer lights up and asks for the urine
sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits.

Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout: "You have tennis
elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will
improve in two weeks".

That evening while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Jack
began wondering if the computer could be fooled. He mixed some tap water,
a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter,
and masturbated into the mixture for good measure.

Jack hurried back to Tesco, eager to check what would happen. He deposits
five pounds, pours in his concoction, and awaits the results.

The computer prints the following:-

1. Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener.
2. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo.
3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab.
4. Your wife is pregnant - Twins. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer.
5. And if you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never
get better....
....thank you for shopping at Tesco.

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Hospital


Hospital

A man was brought in to the hospital intensive care ward, put in a bed,
tubes coming out everywhere. A week later, another man was admitted, in a
similar condition. Both lay there, machines pinging, tubes poking out etc.

It was a couple more weeks before one of them had the strength to raise
his hand and point to himself and say: "Scottish".

The other signalled he had heard, raised his own hand, and said
"Irish". This act tired them out so badly they both collapsed with
exhaustion.

It was a week before the first summoned up the strength to say: "Glasgow".
Again the second replied in a weedy frail voice "Dublin". Once more, the
strain was too much for them both and they passed out.

Days passed before the first man managed to again point to himself and say
"Jimmy".

Replied the other "Paddy".

A few hours later, Jimmy managed to point to himself again and rasp out
weakly "Cancer".

Paddy responded, "Sagittarius".

[nilesfunnies] Fw: DIVORCE

A judge was interviewing a woman regarding her pending divorce.

He asked "What are the grounds for your divorce?"

She replied "About four acres and a nice little home in the middle of the
property with a stream running by"

"No." he said, "I mean what is the foundation of this case?"

"It is made of concrete, brick and mortar," she responded.

"I mean," he continued, "What are your relations like?"

"I have an aunt and uncle living here in town, and so do my husband
parents"

He said "Do you have a real grudge?"

"No" she replied, "We have a wooden fence and have never really needed any
shrubbery"

"Please" he tried again, "is there any infidelity in your marriage?"

"Yes" both my son and daughter have stereo sets. We don't necessarily like
the music, but the answer to your questions is yes"

"Ma'am, does your husband beat you up?"

"Yes" she responded, "about twice a week, he gets up earlier than I do"

Finally, in frustration, the judge asked, "Lady, why do you want a
divorce?"

"Oh, I don't want a divorce" she replied. "I've never wanted a divorce.
My husband does. He said he can't communicate with me."

English teacher
An English teacher was being released from prison. The nice looking
female clerk was about to give him the $100.00 they give to all
released prisoners. Since the inmate had not had female attention for
a long time, he suggested that she could keep the money if she would
have sex with him. He was immediately rearrested and thrown back into
jail. Everybody knows you should never end a sentence with a
proposition.

[nilesfunnies] OT - explaining relativity to the cat

It is by Jennifer Gresham, from "Diary of a Cell".

Explaining Relativity to the Cat

Imagine, if you will, three mice.
Contrary to what you have
heard, they are not blind
but are in a spaceship
traveling near the speed of light.
This makes them unavailable
for your supper, yes.

So these mice, traveling near
the speed of light, appear
quite fat, though there is
no cheese aboard. This is
simply a distortion of mass,
because the mass of a mouse
is nothing more than a bundle
of light, and vice versa. I see
how this might imply mice
are in the light fixtures,
undoubtedly a problem, so
let me try again.

If two people attempted
to feed you simultaneously,
no doubt a good situation,
but you were on a train
traveling near the speed
of light, the food would
appear unappetizing, falling
to the plate in slow motion,
an extended glob of protein
that never smelled good,
if you ask me, train or no.
The affinity of the food
for the plate, what we call
gravity, is really just
a stretch in the fabric
of a space-time continuum,
what happens when you
have sat in a seat too long,
perhaps on this very train.

Oh kitty, I know how you hate
to travel and the journey must
have made you tired. Come now,
lick your coat one more time
-and let us make haste
-from this strange city
-of light and fantastic dream.

Into my heart an air that kills from yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills, what spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content, I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went and cannot come again.

A bloke stops to visit his mate who has a broken leg. His friend says,
"My feet are cold mate. Can you go and get me my slippers from upstairs
please."

The guy goes upstairs, and there are his mate's gorgeous twin 18 year
old daughters.

"Hi, girls. Your dad sent me up here to shag you."

The first daughter says, "That's not true."

He says, "I'll prove it."

He yells down the stairs, "Both of them?"

His mate yells back, "Of course, both of them."

Ouch
The driver of a huge truck lost control of his vehicle and he plowed into
an empty tollbooth and smashed it to pieces.

He climbed down from the cab and looked at the wreckage, not quite sure
what to do. Within a matter of minutes, another truck pulled up and
unloaded a crew of workers.

The men picked up each broken piece of the former tollbooth and spread
some kind of creamy substance on it. Then they began fitting the pieces
together. In less than a half hour, they had the entire
tollbooth reconstructed and good as new.

"Astonishing!" the truck driver said to the crew chief. "What was that
white stuff you used to get all of the pieces together?"

The crew chief said, "Oh, that was tollgate booth paste."

The 3 Bears:

A far more accurate account of the events of that fateful morning...

Baby bear goes downstairs, sits in his small chair at the table, and he
looks into his small bowl.

It is empty. "Who's been eatingmy porridge?" he squeaks.

Daddy Bear arrives at the big table and sits in his big chair. He looks
into his big bowl and it is also empty. "Who's been eating my
porridge?!?" he roars.

Mummy Bear puts her head through the serving hatch from the kitchen and
yells, "For God's sake, how many times do we have to go through this
with you idiots?"

It was Mummy Bear who got up first.

It was Mummy Bear who woke everyone in the house.

It was Mummy Bear who made the coffee.

It was Mummy Bear who unloaded the dishwasher from last night and put
everything away.

It was Mummy Bear who went out in the cold early morning air to fetch the
newspaper and croissants.

It was Mummy Bear who set the damn table.

It was Mummy Bear who put the bloody cats out, cleaned the litter boxes,
gave the cats their food, and refilled their water. And now that you've
decided to drag your sorry bear-asses downstairs and grace Mummy Bear with
your grumpy presence, listen carefully, because I'm only going to say this
once....

I HAVEN'T MADE THE F***ING PORRIDGE YET!!!"

[nilesfunnies] Fw: Tesco Scam Warning!!!!! 01 Feb 2006 11:18


Tesco Scam Warning!!!!! 01 Feb 2006 11:18
I have just received this from a very shaken friend of mine - BE WARNED!

I don't how many of you shop at Tesco, but this may be useful to know.
I am sending this to you to warn you of something that happened to me,
as I have become a victim of a clever scam while out shopping.

This happened to me at Tesco in Redditch and it could happen to you.

Here's how the scam works:

Two seriously good-looking 19-year-old girls come over to your car as
you are packing your shopping in the boot. They both start wiping your
windscreen with a soapy sponge, with their breasts almost falling out of
their skimpy t-shirts.

It is impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip,
they say 'No' and instead ask you for a ride to another Tesco.

You agree and they get in the back seat. On the way, they start having!
sex with each other. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and
performs oral sex on you, while the other one steals your wallet.

I had my wallet stolen last Tuesday, Wednesday, twice on Thursday, again
on Saturday, and also yesterday.
