January, 1991 - Bulk file exchange.

The holidays were very good around here and we would like to share the gifts. We have just completed a very large bulk file trade with a BBS in Texas and will be taking the next few months working to sort and add them to our file area. If you are impatient, we could use some help. Feel free to stop by the Professional Data Systems office during business hours.

 

February, 1991 - Look for new files.

We have added another 300,000 files and a whole new section to the file area. These are already checked for duplicates and scanned free from virus infections. All of these new file areas are open for totally free access with no upload quotas. Be sure to tell your friends.

 

March, 1991 - Moving Day.

We are growing again. Keep watching for a big announcement soon about how we can save you money and make it easier to get through to our service.

 

April, 1991 - New Location.

The IFX Group is back in the middle of the USA and now running brand new system software. This relocation helps save long distance costs for our members from all over the country. We are also working to bring even more custom online software exclusive to the IFX Group. These are online games, entertainment, tools and utilities only available here.

 

May, 1991 - Netmail.

New to the IFX Group is network mail that connects to systems and networks all over the world. Our members can now send mail to nearly anyplace in the world for free. This also brings file networking that pipes a whole new stream of exciting shareware files directly into our file download areas. Check it out for yourself.

 

June, 1991 - Too.

McGuyver can teach us many things we don't want to know.

 

July, 1991 - Common knowledge.

When asked this riddle, 80% of kindergarten students got the answer, compared to 17% of Stanford University seniors.

What is greater than God,
more evil than the devil,
the poor have it,
the rich need it,
and if you eat it, you'll die?

What is it?

 

August, 1991 - Silence is Golden.

Isn't the best way to save face to keep the lower part shut?

 

September, 1991 - Taxing work.

A survey says that American workers work the first three hours every day just to pay their taxes. So that's why we can't get anything done in the morning: We're government workers! -Jay Leno

 

October, 1991 - Unexpected longevity.

That married couples can live together day after day is a miracle that the Vatican has overlooked. -Bill Cosby

 

November, 1991 - Three Perspectives.

To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

 

December, 1991 - Tradition.

Since Americans throw rice at weddings, do Asians throw hamburgers?
