  1. Thanx for the update Sultan, I hope he gets well soon. I still wonder about his upload site...I hope he just needs to get back on and update it, and not that he's run out of $$$ to run it.
  2. That is disturbing indeed! macmarauder and I have a friend named chinawht and she went missing a year ago. She just dropped off the face of the planet. I hope Thesidekickcat returns soon! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, I remember chinawht, used to see her in chat alot too, but she's MIA now as well... We're losing some, hopefully only temporarily, and maybe getting Goliath back. Well, while its great to see the G-Man posting again...I hate to see our other friends go missing without notice.
  3. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MRS. RV56!!!! Next time you come to Regina, bring that Hubby with you and we'll meet for a beer or 2! Best Wishes on your 29th Birthday!! ;)
  4. Hey all For those of you that remember, Goliath is back posting at G4TV! G-Man has been MIA since just before the merger, and many of us were worried about his situation. Well, it was great to see him post to us over there, and I've sent him a link to come and join all us old TTV'rs over here as well. I sure hope he takes me up on the offer to join us...
  5. Hi Marty Yes, you'll need to reinstall XP as the hardware profile will be all different and it won't boot. Good Luck!
  6. Hi Marty Both the HDD and CDROM will be IDE connections and they look like this... The Primary IDE is where the HDD should connect to, and is usually marked as "PRIM IDE" or similar. It will work in either IDE channel but its normally set as the HDD is set in the Master position (top connector on the cable) and is in the Primary IDE connection. If you look real close at the picture with the blue and white connections, on the lower right side of each connector you'll see one marked as IDE1 and the other IDE2, where IDE1 would be the primary channel. Also remember that the BLUE end of the IDE ca
  7. Just an update on this... There has been no evidence so far that the plane WAS struck by lightning, and workers at the airport say that the plane touched down way too far down the runway and couldn't stop in time. It may be pilot error after all, but it was also terrible weather conditions at the time....we are all human, and mistakes do happen. I'm just thankful that nobody was seriously injured.
  8. I just sent her an email asking her to let me know if she's OK, or just taking a holiday for awhile...I hope she doesn't mind. I'll let you know if she responds back to me.
  9. She last posted on June 23, so she hasn't been here for over a month now....highly unusual for her isn't it! Now I'm a little worried...I hope she's alright. I'll check at G4 and see when she was last there and post back.

    Amazing

    Pretty nifty all right! Thing about numbers is...you can make them do whatever you want them to do. Just look at your computer for instance....remember that this is all just 1's & 0's. and then realize that we only use 2 numbers to do all this with....just think if we used ALL OF THEM!!! WOW....what we could do then eh...
  11. Hi Y'all I don't know how many of you were using RezFiles as an upload host since rezinator came here and offered his service to us, but it seems that his site has been closed down due to bandwidth issues. A page comes up saying its closed due to bandwidth but will reopen July 01....well its Aug 05 now, so it seems that the site is going to remain closed...or so it would seem anyway. Has anyone seen rezinator around lately? He posted last here on June 07 and I haven't checked his G4TV account yet, but I haven't seen him around there either. Its too bad if his site is closed down permanently, i
  12. My old reflexes just aren't what they used to be...I average around 0.24. I could probably do better with a proper mouse or an actual button, I use a trackball with the main left button in the thumb position on the side, and the thumb reflex is not as fast as the fingers.
  13. The only problem there Marty, is now you do not know how much LEGITIMATE email you're possibly missing because of this. Your ISP may be filtering way too much stuff and you'll never realize it....it doesn't bother them at all if they throw out good emails along with the bad, and it gives the impression that they are doing a good job for you, as you'll never know what you're missing. I would much prefer to filter my own mail and not have my ISP touch it at all, but the vast majority of users on this ISP, have no idea how to filter unwanted mail, so the ISP goes with the majority who want them t
  14. Wow...this is AMAZING! That exact same thing happened to me the other night....promise, it really did...really!!
  15. I really did LOL at this one!!! Thats a great finish!!!

    The Interview

    Way to GO Girl!!! Knew you'ld knock their collective "SOX" off...
  17. Ain't that the truth!!! I've seen this one before, but its just as funny (and ironic) the second time around
  18. Guy And His Camel A guy was riding through the desert on his camel. He had been traveling so long that he felt the desire to have sex. Obviously there were no women in the desert so the man turned to his camel for satisfaction. He tried to position himself right to have sex with his camel but the camel ran away. The man ran to catch up to the camel and got back on and started to ride again. After riding for days, he was feeling the urge to have sex again, so once again he turned to his camel. The camel refused by running away. So he caught up to it again and rode on. Finally after riding the c
  19. Koala and the Prostitute A Koala bear was approached by a prostitute. Since he had never been with a girl before, he was curious and excited. They spent all night long having sex in a hotel. The next morning the Koala got up to leave. As he was heading for the door, the prostitute yelled, "Hey, what about my money?" The Koala turned, gave her a puzzled look and shrugged his shoulders. She said, "Come here," and pulled a dictionary out of her purse. She pointed to the word "prostitute" and its definition, "Performs sexual acts for payment." Finally understanding, the Koala borrowed her dictiona
  20. Never try to outsmart a woman! There was a man who had worked all his life, had saved all of his money, and was a real miser when it came to his money. Just before he died, he said to his wife: "When I die. I want you to take all my money and put it in the casket with me. I want to take my money to the afterlife with me." His wife promised that when he died, she would put all his money in the casket with him. Well, he died. He was stretched out in the casket; his wife was sitting there in black, her friend was sitting next to her. When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers go
  21. Prison Sentence A woman awakes during the night, and her husband isn't in bed with her. She goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of him. He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee. "What's the matter, dear?" she asks. "Why are you down here at this time of night?" The husband looks up from his coffee, "Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 16?" he asks solemnly. "Yes, I do," she replies. "Do you remember wh
  22. A first grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, "Harry, what is your problem?" Harry answered, "I'm too smart for the 1st grade. My sister is in the 3rd grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 3rd grade too!" Ms. Brooks had heard enough. She took Harry to the principal's office. While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal told Ms. Brooks he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back
  23. -- Church gossip -- ============= Mildred , the church gossip, and self-appointed monitor of the church's morals, kept sticking her nose into other people's business. Several members did not approve of her extra-curricular activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence. She made a mistake, however, when she accused George, a new member, of being an alcoholic after she saw his old pickup parked in front of the town's only bar one afternoon. She emphatically told George and several others that everyone seeing it there would know what he was doing. George, a man of few words, st

    The Box

    The Box There was once a man and woman who had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had kept no secrets from each other except that the little old woman had a shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never to open or ask her about. For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but one day the little old woman got very sick and the doctor said she would not recover. In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took down the shoe box and took it to his wife's bedside. She ag
