Funny.......

I always thought an AOLstice was the one day a year when, if you use AOL as=
 your ISP, you got the quickest service.
Now that's not just some W.A.G. mind you, there's science behind my guess. =
 You see, the winter AOLstice is when the AOL servers are closest to you (t=
he computer user who has woefully chosen to use AOL as your ISP of choice),=
 and everyone knows that the closer the server is to you, the quicker you g=
et your drink.....

Right?

Of course the drawback is that if you youse AOL, you must also accept the S=
ummer AOLstice when, all summer, the servers are farthest away from yew and=
 thus provide the SLOWEST service...
