  1. Old is Old is Old is Old A lady goes to the bar on a cruise ship and orders a Scotch with two drops of water. As the bartender gives her the drink she says, "I'm on this cruise to celebrate my 80th birthday and it's today.." The bartender says, "Well, since it's your birthday, I'll buy you a drink. In fact, this one is on me". As the woman finishes her drink, the woman to her right says,"I would like to buy you a drink, too." The old woman says, "Thank you. Bartender, I want a Scotch with two drops of water." " Coming up," says the bartender. As she finishes that drink, the man to

  9. HUMOUR FOR LEXOPHILES (LOVERS OF WORDS): I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. Then it hit me. Police were called to a day care where a three-year-old was resisting a rest. Did you hear about the guy whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now. The roundest knight at King Arthur's round table was Sir Cumference. The butcher backed up into the meat grinder and got a little behind in his work. To write with a broken pencil is pointless. When fish are in schools they sometimes take debate. The short fortune teller who escaped from prison was a small medium at large. A t

  15. hi ime a fan of irish jokes hope you enjoy Into a Belfast pub comes Paddy Murphy, looking like he'd just been run over by a train. His arm is in a sling, his nose is broken, his face is cut and bruised and he's walking with a limp. " What happened to you?" asks Sean, the bartender. " Jamie O'Conner and me had a fight," says Paddy. "That little shit, O'Conner," says Sean, "He couldn't do that to you, he must have had something in his hand." " That he did," says Paddy, "a shovel is what he had, and a terrible lickin' he gave me with it." " Well," says Sean, "you should have defended yourself,
  16. ok i searched the board at g4 and found one of petes posts showing how to do it in safe mode so far i havent tried it on my compt this is the adminstrative p-word its a freinds compt and i need to practice befor i bugger his compt up marty
  17. a friend has forgotten his adminstration p-word how does he reset it as i havent had to do it ime not sure what to do any ideas marty
  18. some how i may have fixed this thing remembering years ago some one techtv said if you have shutdown problems try truning off your screen savers in this case as soon as the compt started the screen saver it went into standby i couldnt find the reason for this but i turned off the screen saver set the power options to never and wiped the desk top pic and so far so good I HOPE WE WILL SEE AND ILE REPORT BACK AFTER A COUPLA DAYS MARTY
  19. sorry i didnt explain the reason a friend has this new compt and all of a sudden it has started random shutdons ive check the temp but i havent had it to peices yet to daunting for me i thought this may be the reason as it shuts down after it it has been running a while it hasent been apart so nothing has been touched internally so i presume it is soft ware like drivers ect i remember when the blaster worm was around it would shut down the compt and the command line was the fix but ime off to read petes fix at g4 thanks team much appreciated marty
