    Fresh Start

    Hey everyone! I'm sure you've noticed my absence for the last few days, I was busy getting every little thing on my computer burned to disk, and wiped everything clean. I had years of clutter spanning over 6 partitions and I was sick of it!! Stuff I haven't looked at in years, and piles of old installers and useless crud. So I took some time to go thru absolutely everything, transfered all the stuff I wanted to keep into burnable sized folders on a new partition, and backed it all up onto CD's. Then 2 passes with Active KillDisk on both HDD's, and start out completely fresh again. Everything h
  5. My deepest condolences to you and your family Keith, I hope he went peacefully and with his family by his side. I'm sure he was comforted by your efforts while you looked after him, and I'm positive that he appreciated everything you did for him. That alone would make his passing on to the next life, a very peacefull event.
  6. Count me in! So far I'm in the age group thats in a tie for the lead...I won't tell you which one I'm in tho.

    Me To

    Hey Marty...you're coming to Canada??? You better come visit rv56 and me, we're right next door to you when you get to Edmonton. rv56 is real close and I'm a few more miles away but its only a 7 hr drive to Edmonton from here. If you let me know what date you'll be there, I just may make the drive up there if I'm on days off. Maybe I'll even pick up rv56 on the way and we'll all get together and get drunk on our good ole Canadian beer!!
  9. BEST OF LUCK NERELDA!!! I'm sure they'll recognize your talents and that the offer will soon be on its way!
  10. TK I have been offline for the past little while and totally missed what had happened....I am SO SORRY to hear of your brother's, wifes passing. That is just a heartbreaking situation for all involved, including us...your friends. I sincerely hope that your family can find the strength to accept her loss, and I pray for your brother and his children...what a loss it is for those kids. Although you may think the hard part is over for your brother my friend, in reality..its just beginning for him and the kids. There will be many times in the near future when they will feel like the world has end
  11. Heheh....finally...an American program thats a ripoff from a Canadian program and not the other way around. We did this in Canada around a 1/2 year ago and also had quite a diverse selection of people to choose from, but ours were a little more relevant than say a talk show hostess. The 10 finalists in our program were actually all worthy competitors but the eventual winner was the Saskatchewan Premier that introduced Universal Health Care back in the 60's, that was adopted by all of Canada soon after, Mr Tommy Douglas. A very worthy choice as our Health Care system is second to none because o
  12. Hmmm...I think this one may be better suited for the "Chat" or "On The Web" forums, rather than the Comedy Club, since they're not jokes. Whaddya think?
  13. I made one of them for myself, an Illegal Operation one. I've always wanted to do something with those Illegal Op. popups, they have so much potential..
  14. LOL rv56!! I'll bet there's more than a few of us here who may have said that at one time or another. (Pssst...don't tell anyone, but I STILL don't know what I'm supposed to do with this thing...thats why I just help folks fix em)

    911

    Good one Marty!! Scary thing is, I've personally heard them just as..if not more, stupid. There really are people that stupid out there, and thats scary. Just last night I took a complaint call from a tenant complaining that the caretaker of their apartment building hadn't vacuumed the floors for months...true!!! They actually wanted us to come out and tell the caretaker to clean more often! I told them to call the Ambulance...thats their department...we do windows not floors.
  16. Funny, in a scary kind of way, isn't it.
  17. History is full of people with enough foresight to not see their finger touch their own noses....which is a good thing cause if it weren't for them, we wouldn't be chuckling right now!!

    This Is....

    Tiny Tim was better.... JK, this guy is really good!! One of my all time favorite songs too, I'm impressed.
  19. I just installed Version 5 a couple of days ago and had initial troubles getting a connection also. Mine is Cable tho so all I had to do was change it to NAT during setup and it has worked great. Lemme see what I can find on dialup config for you but V3 is old and may have issues. It is vitally important tho, that during the setup phase you choose the proper configuration for your type of connection, this may be where you went wrong.
  20. Hmmm....I got 6 Is that good??
  21. This one is ranked right up near the top of "The Best Joke I ever Heard" list!! I love it
  22. Thank You All!! And of course, I must add my own wish for all you Dad's to have a HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!!
