  14. I was at the corner grocery store buying some early potatoes. I noticed a small boy, delicate of bone and feature, ragged but clean, hungrily apprising a basket of freshly picked green peas. I paid for my potatoes but was also drawn to the display of fresh green peas. I am a pushover for creamed peas and new potatoes. Pondering the peas, I couldn't help overhearing the conversation between Mr. Miller (the store owner) and the ragged boy next to me. "Hello Barry, how are you today?" "H'lo, Mr. Miller.

  20. in answer to falcons Q they passworded all entrys to try and stop the kids infecting the compt but it didnt make any difference in the finish i reinstalled windows and it was a bugger of a job as the compt was a hp with a preinstalled xp with out a disk to get windows back it had a recovery console dell does the same so we had to delete 4 partitions upon partitions to clear the hdd prior to deleting those partitions it wouldnt let us insall from a floppy nor a cd thats why hp and dell are ripping the public off it only takes one disk to install millions of sys and here they charge $3.
  21. thanks JS ive done before but ide forgotten how it was done some years since i had to do it i could have done it in ms config but the problem was that dam bootini file options in msconfig if you change the options each time you reboot your compt a notice appeared on the screen to go in and change the options to normal boot and that was a real pain this way i dont have those problems i have your fix on a cd some where but buggered if i can find it it was once discussed on tech tv thanks again marty
